Imagine using one of these on your cycle travels! Could set up the solar panels on the roof. https://www.velove.se/electric-cargo-bike

Translate: Hello. Does anyone know how to turn off the throttle on the Kunteng LCD3 display??

Have bought from Nkon in the past without problems, was before Brexit though. Have also bought from Fogstar. If you buy from Fogstar, make sure you go to their wholesale page.

Yes, the tie rod end might be a bit on the heavy side. Another option might be a suspension drop link. They are a lot lighter. Cut one in half and you get two for the price of one :)

I've wondered whether something like this would be ok, if it would give enough movement. Alternatively, perhaps a tie rod end off of a car?

Thanks, that's a really kind offer. However, I've got access to a CNC machine at work, so I'll take your inspiration and adapt it :) Maybe others on here might appreciate one. Perhaps you could even put your spares on eBay and see what interest you get?

That's nice, I like it. You could even make it a bit bigger and put ridges around where the hitch attaches, so it can't rotate in the vertical plane. The flats on the main axle hole should stop rotation there too.

It's just one of those generic cheap Chinese steel frame, steel wheel jobs I bought online. I can upload pics if you are interested. I have been intending to build the ultimate trailer for years, but never end up having time and have not progressed beyond buying the wheels and tyres :) So I...

Interesting to see how people have addressed the problem. It's surprising there isn't a commercial product for this considering how many e-bikes are around now and how transformative in terms of load carrying it is combining e-bikes with trailers. A lot of car journeys can be replaced by using a...

It says the max load of the trailer should not be more than 26 kg, so I suppose that's why they don't worry about hitch rotation. I've thought for a while that a centre coupling arrangement would be much better, but wondered how best to attach something to the frame without damaging it and then...

I've recently invested in a trailer to increase load carrying ability, but have run into a snag. The hitch is designed for a 10 mm back axle, whereas with a hub motor, the axle is 12 mm. I've drilled out the hole in the hitch to fit the axle, but then the axle nut is too big to fit in the recess...

I mainly print with PLA. It's not the strongest/toughest, but it is the cheapest and easiest to print and doesn't make nasty fumes. PETG is stronger and is still relatively easy to print and is quite popular these days. Many printers can print metal containing filaments now, but it's mainly for...

Still messing with baking soda and superglue? Pencil lead with a bit of baking soda is much better :)

Looks like a Lipo cell from a disposable e-cig. I see a lot of them lying around these days. Millions of them are thrown out each week in the UK.

No, never had a problem. Get some looks as they go by, but they have never pulled me over.

The thing is when you want to filter through traffic, it needs to fold. That's why I added the hinge and put it in front, connected to the steering stem. Another thing to bear in mind is that drivers tend to cut in quickly once they have passed the widest part of the bike, so if it is on the...

I think you can have projections beyond 400 mm, but you have to have a warning triangle fitted to the end of the projection. I read some regulation about this a while ago but typically, I can't find it now. When I did my experiments, even 390 mm beyond the end of the handlebars seemed huge and...

Looks like it was in 2019 snorfiets (mopeds) were banned from the cycle lanes of major NL cities. Although it seems as if you can still use microcars on them, which go much faster! https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/dec/20/scooters-and-hoverboards-add-to-dutch-cycle-lane-hell

Now you're just making excuses to do nothing, just blame it on the number of people there are and then you don't have to do anything, leave it all as it is. Getting people cycling is not going to solve everything, but it is a no brainer to encourage more people to cycle, for such a wide range...
