This suggests a 250wh battery?? and the 30-40 mile range at speeds upto 20mph (restrictions allowing) is a claim! not a very credible one unless its all downhill, but thats more than the generous boast given for my twice the size powerpack (36v 13ah)?470wh? Even so i would expect to get 20km...

when your asked to enquire regarding prices, well, its beyond the depths of my pocket and toy budget..

Hope you enjoy the new bike, as long as it suits you and brings a smile to your face all is good.. You mentioned security earlier.. Locks etc only go so far and a determined thief will find a way.. insurance is your best backup, try adding to a home policy for the best vfm

Ahh - my vague plans faltered at the first obstacle and i just recalled the hurdle and not its specifics.. Cheers..

RE Insurance.. A chap on ES recently suggested a 'minor hassle' route to get cover on diy e-mopeds.. the 'Q Plate route' ?? - apparently the existing framework for diy kit cars etc? He seemed confident that Q plate insurers would at a price provide cover. Not tested the waters myself but...

Cant deny full suspension becomes more attractive on an ebike with the extra time spent in the saddle. And a suspension seat post is high on my wish list as a consequence. While i may have been a tad hyperbolic in presenting the downsides of some branded machines, the general intent was just to...

While this years Giant/(insert established bike brand here) bike may not have the same battery format as next years model, (extra plastic knob/void, or incompatible s/w version) .. With many branded bikes folk have a year or two trouble free cycling but when a problem occurs, and enquiries are...

might as well have a go.. IM not an engineer/electrician etc.. and therfore have done everything wrong at least once.. Many early self inspired projects (pre web) did to my shame involve twisted wire connections in many dc battery circuits, including my 1st central bike light switch attempt...

Hi my take 1)a 17a controller should provide ample improvements in power output over the original 15a? job. a 22a controller would probably require you to limit use to pas levels 1-4, leaving 5 for the extra boost when needed only as to not overheat the motor? But if you have steep climbs...

If converting a suitable bike is not an option Woosh https://wooshbikes.co.uk/ and Whisper have a rep in here for selling quality bikes with longevity in mind so a replacement part or battery enquiry wont be considered a new bike sale lead a year or three later. I seem to recall a few folk...

FYI Im circa 90kg and not athletic in my 60's my cycle back from the city is up'slope' 3 routes, Route 1 slope all the way and a breeze on the ebike at top speed busy roads and traffic allowing. route #2 2 x 'hills' both i could always tackle but out of the seat leaning the bike for...

Rule of thumb - Bolt on = good, Built in = Bad. the stylish built in bikes will require equally stylish and unique parts and bits when replacements are needed due to knocks and bumps and life in general.. Should the bike last long enough to exhaust a battery finding a specific shape battery...

Hope so, And give AI a lil while and the 1 word 5star reviews will be replaced with increasingly authentic reading fakes too..

That looks like a standard 9 pin motor connector that wont need any cutting/soldering @Lonebikee you shouldnt need to browse more than a handful of online controller ads to find a good pic of a standard motor socket to match your plug ;) KT (Ketung?) brand controllers and compatible KT-lcd-xx...

Dumb bot isn't iterating through id's correctly..

As long as the motor has a standard 3 or 9 pin connector, a generic control system will be a fairly straightforward refit KT brand controllers and displays are often recommended as an upgrade for the configurability and display options, a 15a or 17a sinewave controller should suit, but even if...

Yose-power, and Greenlance.co.uk supplied my batteries.. pspower based in germany have been highlighted for offering good deals recently too. a little homework regarding how battery voltages and capacities are added when connected in series and in parallel should arm you well for the usual...

one step forward.. 1 back..

Hope your right, and your best positioned to judge, But with ebike batteries accurate voltage measurement is a crucial and basic test. A single volt difference/discrepancy when fully charged can indicate a severe battery issue, and significantly fewer volts are needed to create a silver foil...

hi spike,, took me a sec to catch on to the "spark test", get a multimeter its a tenner or less and an accurate voltage reading is a required first test for any fault finding. then with a meter you can test if the display has any voltage....
