You can only evaluate torque mode with the motor under load. Lifting the rear wheel in the air and applying just a little power will always make the motor spin at full speed.

No. With a 1500W motor, it can never be UK road legal.

The noise could be clicking spokes. Try applying a tiny drop of oil to where the spokes cross each other and see if it cures the problem.

What makes you think it's not working as it should?

Am I missing something? It's not even electric!

What, no reverse gear?

There's been a few 'helmets' on this forum over the years...

I beg to differ. It is worth the paper it's written on!

I just realised that my first post on this forum back in 2012 was a request for assistance with repairing a faulty motor cable. How things come around full circle!

Okay, send me a quick message using either of those methods and we'll work something out.

I'm based in Westbury, about 15 miles from Bath. I'd be happy to help, but the distance could be a problem for you, logistically speaking. Testing and troubleshooting is unlikely to take longer than 15 minutes, but if the issue turns out to be a faulty motor cable and requires replacement, I...

You might be able to fool the controller by switching the output on a hall-effect throttle. Switch off the signal wire before the controller is initiated (when power is connected). Once the controller is on, switch the signal wire back on. Be careful though because the minimum signal of a...

Where are you based?

It might be that the controller is waiting for a 0V pot input before it will initialise.

Your plan sounds unnecessarily complex. Why have you decided against a conventional 'passive bleed' BMS?

Here's a road legal option that would surpass your expectations, although slightly over budget: https://epicstuff.co.uk/products/sur-ron-electric-motocross-road-legal-electric-mountain-bike?variant=17136247341107

So, did the replacement LCD display allow you to raise the speed limit?

When I'm out riding my scooter with my hipster pals, I wouldn't be without the following five accessories: Beard oil & comb Topknot tie Velcro sandals Spare iPhone Avocado

Something that rarely gets a mention is that battery range and electrical efficiency is not the same thing. To maximise battery range, you should run your motor at the lowest possible power level, while inputting as many human watts as possible. Electrical efficiency (heat per unit of input...

I'd still start by giving the pack a full charge, allowing for a long balancing period overnight. Also, check the charger to ensure that it's still outputting the expected voltage, somewhere around 58.8V.
