Am i psychic?? i have a feeling someone wants to sell stuff on ebay ooooeeerr ever so eerie

Indeed thats why i went for a step thru when i bought my last bike. 4yrs on with it and i still have fuzzy moments when i approach the bike and my body wants to throw a leg up and over but my mind is set on being sensible and i pause for what seems to me to be way too long.. What finally...

black is the common and the red/yellow wires are the signal the difference is for you to tell left from right brake wires at a glance without having to trace back.. not a problem :)

tbh first i heard about crank spacers was in @Waspy 's post above, a more standard cycle would have a round 'axle' with square tapers onto which you mount the crankset

not much visible taper to the square keys so with spacers you should be able to position a replacement where you want it

Cheers Im only just starting to digest the 25page pdf detailing the P and C settings UG! and i thought the double sided a4 sheet that came with the headset was complicated.. However i am reading it .. The last page is interesting tho as it details the connection of 2 controllers for sending...

I dunno.. but derailleur gears are Very forgiving especially when you consider many bikes use 3 chain rings 1 cm or so apart. so you should have in the region of circa 3 cm to play with.. So i would suggest its worth a punt especially if distance buying from a seller with a no quible...

dont save by buying anything but the best locks you can afford. fwiw i use A good D-lock to quickly clamp the rear wheel to an immovable object, for all the occasions I leave the bike for 3-5 mins. And a 4ft grinder resistant close chain and similar shackle for locking up for longer periods in...

Contact Fluke UK, ?? certainly they are the folk to contact if you need it certified for accuracy.

buy some washers you will need the for the brake levers, the clamping screw uses a blind hole and bottoms out before it clamps the bars, washers help 'shorten' the screw. and be mindful to replace the plastic adjustment h/w with the ones from your old levers too.

Fairly new here with limited experience of 1 kit build and 1 refurbish underway. However i can recommend the yose power range of kts having fitted a rear wheel 250w kit. they sell a 350w kit too which can afaik be de-restricted fairly easily. but the quality of the kit the tools supplied and...

Its been a Long evening, got home circa 3 pm and got my hands nice n greasy Getting there, Brakes are tweaked to perfection Having never touched cycle disk brakes before i was expecting lots of problems especially after my special shim job to centre the pads on the rear disk. Ive rotated...

a battery has to get hot before it bursts into flame? how fast is the heat up ? could a simple off the shelf temperature controlled socket set to power down at say 10 or 20c above ambient enclosed with the the battery during charging ward off many possible fires? and give advance warning of...

Similar though different brand. NOT RECOMMENDATIONS OF PRODUCTS OR SELLERS LINKS ARE JUST EXAMPLES... i did a quick ebay search for kit close to what i got, i went for the 17a version but the cheapest option would be a 15a.. ebay 15a kt controller . I cant tell if its square or sine wave...

De-Ja vu or what,, You or perhaps someone else said exactly the same thing about my kit build and despite my initial protests were right to my shame.. This time i am confident in saying its a smear of green colour grease thats giving that impression I must have double checked it half a dozen...

Many Thanks, Yes they all need replacing, and yes the thinner spokes anchor well in the hub motor, first thing i checked.. Thanks again i can now head off and start my evening of youtube watching how to lace wheel vids .. bet i still screw up ;)

I have a hub motor in a wheel with many missing and broken spokes. those that remain are seized to their nipples. so i need to re-lace the wheel. the wheel rim is not round its got a little wobble in it but i think it should be correctable? i have sized my spokes by length and received a new...

YELLOW BIKE RIDES AGAIN!! Bits arrived, some issues.. but a quick fit, brake check and adjust, and whoosh she runs.. The replacement 17a controller is a few mm to big to fit inside the original controller housing which has screws rusted into it atm anyway.. Well i did order a bigger box...

RE Motor sensors, just check the lead coming from the hub motor if it only contains the 3 power wires then its a sensorless hub, if however the three power wires are combined with an additional 6 sensor wires then the hub has sensors..

TLDR I think i may be just the one ebike controller purchase ahead of you.. Im no expert just a bloke finding out myself.. Check and double check anything u order.. Yes.. And it is a bloody minefield.. i put in an aliexpress order for all the bits to fix a gifted wreak.. and the bl**dy...
