Yes as I said, I have heard their after sales service is good. Though in your case, I would have expected them to sort that out FOC :eek: When I spoke to them a year or two ago about the Sparticle kit they told me they were having Brompton forks professionally modified (spread) and were...

Steve, As its a back wheel, I am pretty sure you will have to dismantle it to remove the cogs (cassette) and guard before you can fit them :( Regards Jerry

IMO I have always found ETS to be very expensive. I guess if their customer service and after sales support is good this may account for it. Many of those bikes are used and simlar money could be put towards a new or kit upgrade. Regards Jerry

No problem. Thanks for the update. Regards Jerry

Yes you may be right Tony. Looking at the specs the rated output power and max output power are the same, but I notice maximum power % are less but only by 1%. Anyway unless they do this motor in the narrower width, I will be staying with my existing Tongxin motors. Regards Jerry

I had an email back, but with no specific prices except to say it was expensive. They want me to tell them exactly what motor I want before they will give me a price. Interestingly they explained the difference between two versions of motors. As suggested one has the controller "built in" to...

Confused Well that confuses things :confused: Maybe they have set up a separate web site/company to push them ? As always very little detailed info. Regards Jerry

Ah well then, definitely a business opportunity and chance to get on rogue traders lol Regards Jerry

My build thread. I am self taught (with lots of help from forum members here) and up to about a dozen builds now, albeit simple small wheel symetrical hub builds. I still very much consider myself an amateur. As stated its not that hard, though I found the first one quite challenging more in...

I am not so sure this is a viable business opportunity unless a lot of preparation was done before hand. At a minimum you would want to go and visit the company in China, get samples and road test them thoroughly before launching a service to supply and fit them for joe public. My guess is that...

That makes sense Dave. Though I am not sure why the motors with that in them would be lighter ? This really is the problem with looking at Chinese components from a distance and trying to interpret the translation of specs/details. Regards Jerry

Thanks Tony. I have corrected my link also. It is certainly an interesting development and the various battery options make it more flexible in terms of carrying only the weight of battery required for distance. Does anyone understand the two motor options listed side by side i.e. "Motor"...

Tony is kindly uploading the file now, so when it is ready here is the Brochure PDF link. Regards Jerry

I am waiting for them to get back Eddie. They usually only sells things in 100s but will sometimes send a couple of samples if you can convince them you may be interested in a larger order later. Regards Jerry

Thanks. I have asked if it will be available in the smaller 80mm width. Flecc I pmed you and Russ re hosting the file. I can host it myself but will need to wait till I get home and have access to my web file share username and password. Regards Jerry

Re the picture on my Tongxin supply post showing a new kit I emailed them and they sent me a PDF brochure covering the kit and all the various motor and battery options. The motor comes in various sizes as does the bottle battery. The kit includes an interesting variable power assist unit. I...

Yep they just emailed me to tell me you have to tell them in advance if you want cruise control as they program it into the controller before they send them out. I wonder how they do it and if I can do it myself. I have asked for a couple more controllers with them programmed. Regards Jerry

Wiring Diagram They sent me the wiring diagram this morning. All self explanatory. Not sure how I enable the cruise control though. I emailed them. Also the red and black wire are power for a front light. Will be interesting to see what voltage that is and god job I did not connect them...

Well its been raining here all day in Cambridge as it probably is elsewhere given that we are all sat here posting on the forum :D Regards Jerry

I have not ordered from BMSBattery but in my latest order from china they put the bits in the same box as the motors. Regards Jerry
