    Wisper 705 LED Display replacement?

    He meant the broken end of the cable where it feeds into the display. It is colour coded so a couple of the broken wires can be linked together to get your bike working again until you decide if you want to upgrade your controller. Also have you contacted Whisper to find out if one of their...

    Hub motor identification

    May be a good idea to delete that photo and post a new one on the chain side without your van registration in the shot. It looks like you have replaced the geared rear motor with a direct drive.

    New KT controller and display upgrade wont switch on

    The 1T4 cable may be the problem with the KT controller. Did you buy the cable as part of the kit or seperately?

    Anyone ever tried to implement regenerative braking?

    I built a free energy generator from two washing machine motors that I got from the recycling centre. I use it to run my cyclotron that I made from an old tumble drier. I‘m using the cyclotron to produce radio isotopes for my nuclear battery to power my e-bike. The most expensive part was the...

    Anyone ever tried to implement regenerative braking?

    You need to configure the controller to keep the regen phase current at a sensible level so it doesn’t damage the battery. I changed my regen phase current from 30 amps to 50 amps yesterday to improve the braking ability, but I had second thoughts about it today so changed it back to 30 amps to...

    Anyone ever tried to implement regenerative braking?

    I think Justin is trying to push regenerative braking because he has designed the phase runner to operate with all of the functionality that he talked about in the seminar and wants people to buy it together with his all axle motor and cycle analyst. It seems to work as he explained, so if you...

    Anyone ever tried to implement regenerative braking?

    He is using a regen throttle for variable braking which is quite good. I don’t have the wiring for a regen throttle on my controller. And I don’t know if my firmware even supports it. Mine is direct drive, so I don’t have a clutch. You need good torque arms for regen and ebraking and need to...

    Anyone ever tried to implement regenerative braking?

    I find regenerative braking annoying because it activates and slows the motor down as soon as I come off the throttle so I can’t coast. I could set it up so it comes on at a slower wheel rpm, but it would then come on so late that it isn’t worth using. I have activated ebraking instead to power...

    Speed Sensor

    That one looks like a genuine KT speed sensor. http://www.szktdz.com/en/news_show.php?article_id=359

    Newbie looking to rent initially

    Woosh bikes or Whisper bikes may have something that fits you so it’s worth contacting both.

    Newbie looking to rent initially

    The downside of bikes like this with integrated batteries is when the battery dies in a few years time you will unlikely to be able to find a replacement. So you will probably end up scrapping the bike and buying a new one. Gin may not be trading by then and if they are still in business then...

    Newbie looking to rent initially

    Gin e-bikes based in Reading may just have just the bike for you. They say you can have a test ride to see if it fits. And they offer free delivery in Berkshire. I think you are just about tall enough for their step through bike. https://www.ginebikes.com/

    Replacement controller sought / advice sought

    That display won’t run a KT controller properly. The bike may have worked, but it would have run very inefficiently because you weren’t able to configure the controller. If you buy a display that is matched to the controller and set it up properly you will see a remarkable increase in...

    Controller wire identification

    What is the make and model of the controller? That wiring diagram bears absolutely no resemblance to the wiring on your controller.

    Replacement controller sought / advice sought

    A photograph of your display may help. KT does manufacture various LED displays, but none of them match your description of “three colours arranged vertically - green (at the top), orange , and then red at the bottom”. If it indeed is a KT LED display that came with the bike then it must have...

    Hub motor identification

    Some motors are easier than others. From the photos you have posted yours looks easy. You will need a freehub or cassette removal tool depending on whether you have a cassette or freehub. They are cheap either online or from Halfords. And then an Allen key to remove the hub screws. It...

    Hub motor identification

    What has been damaged? The connector or the cable? Either way you can buy a new pair of cables with the same connectors. It’s way cheaper than replacing the motor. And then you can have fun threading the new cable through the axle. Can you share a photo of the damage?

    Wisper 705 brake bleed adapter

    The bit at the end “flicking the brakes” was him doing the bleeding after he pumped up the pads. You can clearly see an air bubble pop out and then he was done. You will also notice that he wound back the pistons so no air could get trapped in the caliper, so only the pipe would have bubbles...
