    Cheap Dahons On The Bay

    Dave, Here is the motor Just remeasured. Between the lock nuts is 82mm, between the casing flats 70mm at the widest point as it shrinks/steps down, same on both faces. . PS that is not a disk brake face but a plate that unscrews. The screws go through and hold the clutch/freewheel. Or...

    :rolleyes: I wonder if they would spread 10mm to accommodate the 70mm wide motor casing ? The Brompton had a similar problem with my original Tongxin motors. Note the washer spacers Jerry

    Cheap Dahons On The Bay

    Lol anyone want to buy a new Dahon JetStream :rolleyes: The Tongxin case does shrink to 70mm almost immediately after the locking nuts. Might be possible though it sounds really tight. Any chance of a picture, or I will have to wait till Tues when it is delivered. If not it could be my first...

    Cheap Dahons On The Bay

    Many thanks Dave, That explains it, comes with being popular I guess. The PM did not appear in my outbox though strange. Hopefully they will take a 6-7mm stretch for the 83mm Tongxin. Is the profile of them flat in the inside re fowling the motor ? Sorry but can I also ask you one...

    Tongxin motor troubles

    As Dave says sounds like a cracked ring. Details here on what it takes to fix it/take it apart. Frankly it would be easier to order a new one (see below). Is it still under guarantee ? When you say nano lipo what battery are you using ? Also be interested to know what sized wheel you are...

    Any disadvantage with a front wheel hub ?

    Yikes :eek: When you stand over the crossbar there should be about an inch maybe a little more gap between the bar and your n..s When sat on the saddle, with the pedal at the lowest point, your leg should be almost but not quite straight (easily adjusted by saddle height). I find saddle...

    Yep some of the Dahon deals are very good at the moment. I wonder why they are all reduced so much. I can't see why the Tern/Dahon split would make that happen. Oh well good for us consumers :D Regards Jerry

    Cheap Dahons On The Bay

    Thanks. What I like about some of the newer Dahons is they now also have a luggage block fitting welded onto the front. My Brompton has one and with smaller wheels carrying lugggage up front is easy. I think I am going to go for a light assist with one of my Tongxins. I will need to spread...

    Thats a neat conversion. I like the idea of putting heat shrink over the motor cable entry arrangement. I need to encorporate that into my conversions. Also the connector cover looks neat. I never understood how those worked. I assume the lid is off. Saves putting cable ties over the cable as I...
