Steel cable tie from my torque arm has been teared in 2. Not enough to handle 2500W BPM. I need to get another one... maybe 2 other steel tie? Ideally I should bolt it but I don't have equipment with me (no drills or drill bits)

I've been using this converter on number of led (including magicshine) and never had any issue: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DC-24V-36V-48V-60V-64V-72V-To-12V-10A-Converter-For-Electric-Storage-Battery-/400589244381?pt=UK_Home_Garden_PowerTools_SM&hash=item5d44fac7dd

The quick release alternative arrived: It does fit, but it's a bit too long for my bike. Probably need a bit of dremel on it

ok you're right. Probably better not to get a chopper then...

Hello there, I've found this bike: http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/american-stingray-schwinn-chopper-bike/1047162818#photo-content If I electrify it, would I... - Not be stopped by police with something that looks like a motorbike - Be able to carry passenger safely on the same seat?

Yeah but it's for 3A constant. I'll only discharge for 30mn to 1 hour so it should be ok

Perfect thanks dave :)

òf course I'll do that :)

I think I found the solution: With U=RI, the cell voltage is about 4V and I need to discharge to about 15-20W or 5-6A. So 4V/6A = 0.66R So I need a 0.66ohm resistor...

Thanks Dave, I finally purchased the cap from Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B001F0QEI6/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i05?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This one has the best review so I'm hoping by paying a bit more I'll be happy

Hello, Because I didn't spent time to properly equilibrate all my cells when I created my battery, I have 2 cells at 4.2V while other charge up to 4.06-4.10V. It's quite a high difference and I'd like to be able to discharge them manually I have jst-xh male plug coming out of my battery for...

ok ok I'm going to check if I can find some in london cycle shop. If not, I'll get the one online. Thanks :)

I also found this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ROXTER-WATERPROOF-MOTORCYCLE-BIKE-SCOOTER-2-PIECE-RAIN-JACKET-TROUSER-SUIT-KIT-/400449044760?pt=UK_Sporting_Goods_Sports_Clothing_LE&var=&hash=item5d3c9f8118 it looks better? I noticed yesterday even with mudguard rain goes over my shoes... so...

Get a Mezzo bike. The rear dropout is large enough to put a big motor such as a BPM. It doesn't fold as small, but it's not bad. It also folds in half very quickly. With a big motor on the front, and potentially another battery, it will wear the bike quickly when you fold unfold it on the hinges.

bike finalised. Stealthier. The best I can do without drilling the frame:

something like this? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tenn-PVC-Waterproof-Cycle-Cape-Poncho-Grey-/261001850297?pt=UK_Cycling_Clothing&hash=item3cc4ec2db9

Shall I get this super cheap poncho to see what it worth? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lightweight-Emergency-BIKE-CYCLE-PONCHO-RAIN-COAT-COVER-/300579761131?pt=UK_Cycling_Clothing&hash=item45fbf32beb

Run way to handle that power? You mean autonomy? I'm now bringing my bike to london. I'm so excited. The dahon jetstream rolls well when folded, I'm quite happy about it. Fingers crossed I won't have any reliability issue in london as I don't have my tool box now in london!

The bike all included should weight around 25kg (4kg motor +10kg battery+11kg bike + some bits) Handling is quite good because mass is all located on the bike frame. It handles better than my brompton. Ride are quite pleasant. Previously the battery was on my backpack and it gave me some pain...

my bike is almost complete: Thanks to d8veh I've now a rear disc brake which is super nice. I've placed the batteries on the frame for balance. It's a big battery of 72v20ah ahah, almost 1500wh. I'm cycling them to see how they perform
