    pedal help

    while a bit tongue in cheek the grinding is the sort of thing i may resort to late in the day and would apply to the rear hidden back of the pedal arm where the tapered square opening is at its widest. edit opening the taper wider would WORSEN the situation.. grinding could remove the rear of...

    pedal help

    Can you mount the sensor on a different part of the bike? Perhaps just filling or grinding down the rear of the pedal arm top rear by a few mm removing its mass that is hampering a good fit or replacing with a lower mass pedal arm?? The cheapest 1 piece pas sensors have a few mm profile and...

    Changes to selling e-bikes, conversion kits and batteries on eBay.co.uk - No more private (personal) sales.

    Is that just ebay.co.uk tho?? while selling may be a bit more problematic, pre brexit at least many ebay.fr and ebay.de sellers already happy to post would ship the the uk at cost of course.. ( large capacity catering SS pots were way cheaper from over the channel 20-30%ish even after shipping)

    Bms for phylion 36v

    Hope your right and I have been proven wrong. But I urge you to check with running the bike from a generic 2 wire battery for a little while to confirm. A recent post on endless-sphere.com/ involved a chap who reported his scooter would run a couple of miles/minutes and cut off, turns out he...

    I dont know your bike, but google suggests the battery may have a minimum 50 recharge cycles warranty?? And a bms which records a recharging cycles count in s/w {ooer;(} If your battery has less than 50 cycles and such warranties are honoured regardless of being original purchaser or not ?? -...

    Legal EBIKE LOOPHOLES

    I cant say for sure about lime bikes but since they are hire bikes from the same source as the hire-scooters which afaik are mostly 500w+ perhaps they fall under the same 'system trial loophole' as the scooters?? If indeed they have 2x 250w rated motors, though if the order is of a sufficient...

    Help! Converting folder bike to cassette

    fwiw when fitting my conversion kit to a bike with an exiting 7 speed freewheel i upgraded to 8 speed with an 11tooth top gear replacing the 12or 13 tooth top gear on the existing 7 speed freewheel iirc. in addition to the budget shimmano cassette i bought a shimmano 8spd derailer, a microline...

    KT sine wave controllers - are they all "torque simulation"?

    In my very limited experience with 1x 4into1 cable (yose kit) and 1 x 5 to 1 cable spare bike retrofit to julet connectors (what was I thinking!!). Both plug into the same controller socket ok and work as expected. (I pulled the 4 in 1 cable of my yose bike and used it to test aspects of the...

    KT sine wave controllers - are they all "torque simulation"?

    Right dug out the bike, and the fitted controller is the 22a job.. the 17a controller box is sat on the side within easy reach.. BUt according top @saneagle above is a squarewave controller with ZWSRD in the ID KT36/48ZWSRD-ffF0L. It was fitted to the bike for a few months of trouble free...

    What has happened here please

    If the two sides were in sync and are now out of sync, and in the interim OP opened up the motor.. I would suggest perhaps the axle may be in 2 parts and reopening and realigning may be possible? i am no cycle or motor expert tho..

    While im pretty sure ive herd some unsavoury things from nigels lips on the news/utube etc.. i cant provide a link tho so will concede that it could have been mog, gove, or any one of a number of right wing gb news type pundits who raise my hackles on sight or sound. - they all kinda blend into...

    Since the rise of Milton Freemans economic theories (MV=PT) western economies have been run with the intention of maintaining a certain level of unemployment although they dont shout about it, but its a major tool in restraining 'inflationary' pay growth..

    Bms for phylion 36v

    If you can connect a generic battery to your bikes system and run it ok then its a safe bet a generic bms system will also provide your bike with power with your original cells. Otherwise probably not, Im only aware of ebike batteries using comms for bad reasons like making sure you can only...
