    Tongxin Motor - Ring Removal Tool

    Recently I have had to strip down a couple of Tongxin motors to both repair/clean out the clutch and do some re-wiring. Its quite tricky but very rewarding when you get one to work again. Anyway I have never gone further than this and have one motor that is very noisy that really needs...

    Petrol/Gas - Electric Hybrid Bikes

    I have received some recent emails from Outrider which includes a brochure on the above. I wonder what they think their target market is given that these would not be legal in the UK without MOT/licensing etc and I suspect similarly in other parts of Europe ? http://www.h9.com.cn/down/ad1s.jpg...

    I LOVE crusie control!

    Recently I found another controller which had cruise control. It is the type that when you hold the throttle at any position for longer than about twenty seconds it maintain the speed (or throttle setting not absolutely sure) set even if you release the throttle. Blipping the throttle or...

    Lyen & other programable controllers

    I am sure others have used these programmable controllers before and I know there have been previous posts about them, but this is a first time for me even though I have been messing around with ebikes since 2009. I guess I have always been a little cheap and had assumed that all controllers...

    A copy of my recent post to other small wheeled/folding bike forums I visit. Sorry for all the extra Brompton related detail, but I think on the right terrain this hub also has real application for larger wheeled ebikes with front fitted hub motors. This hub auto changes up/down between two...
