    Remember I am UK based so NO US makes or outlets please

    Best grip on what though?... As you correctly stated, there's no 'perfect' tyre - they're all a compromise in one way or another. The Maxxis Holy Roller is my favourite 'all-rounder' - pretty much what the OP was asking for.

    Remember I am UK based so NO US makes or outlets please

    This has been my preferred 'all-rounder' tyre for many years: https://www.maxxis.com/uk/tyre/holy-roller/ Enough tread to cope well off-road, minimal rolling resistance on pavement and hardpack dirt.

    Not necessarily. Depends whether they're talking about a 750W rated motor, or 750W of output power.

    Second Hand Electric Bikes

    May I suggest that it is more of a reflection of ebay as a failing (declining) marketplace, rather than the used ebike market as a whole. Buyers have begun a mass exodus of the site in the last year, so there are bargains to be had with listings that struggle to gain views in the double digits!

    You'd need a fair gust to make it worthwhile, but it's not a bad idea. Do you have any more information about this specific implementation (photo, link, etc.)?

    Hall sensor connection

    Custom parameter C2 adjusts the motor phase angle & timing. You should try making incremental changes to this setting, starting at '0', each time increasing the value by 1 and seeing the effect this has on motor operation. PLEASE NOTE: The C2 parameter only takes effect after a power cycle of...

    Hall sensor connection

    Disconnect everything from the controller except for the battery, motor and display, then try powering the motor using the walk-assist function - you can do so by holding the [DOWN] button on the LCD display. Let us know what happens.

    Hall sensor connection

    'Error 03' refers to an issue with a number of your motor's hall sensor signals. Before doing anything else, you should carry out the following multimeter test in order to confirm the status of your motor's hall-effect sensors: https://www.ebikes.ca/documents/HallSensorTestingFinal.pdf Please...

    The following thread on Endless Sphere is the best source of information on the subject: https://endless-sphere.com/sphere/threads/definitive-tests-on-the-heating-and-cooling-of-hub-motors.48753/#p1095860 TL;DR - Ferrofluid is extremely effective on direct drive outrunner motors. Other motor...

    Comment on another sad e-scooter death

    No, I can't, but that doesn't make MBFC incorrect. If you'd rather trust climate change denial and fake news outlets, that's your lookout. We all know how much of the right-biased media function - throw enough sh*t in the hope of some of it sticking. Lies halfway round the world by breakfast...

    No, just follow the money. Transparrently funded news sources > opaquely funded news sources.

    Comment on another sad e-scooter death

    Oh, the irony! Your sources are WorldNetDaily; a far-right 'fake news' website, and Climate Change Dispatch; a right-wing 'climate change denial' forum. I actually rate Politifact quite highly, but note you didn't include any sources from them to back up your claim. I couldn't personally find...

    Comment on another sad e-scooter death

    Hmmm, Free West Media. A right-wing biased, opaquely funded, pro-conspiracy 'news' agency, with a history of making (provenly) false claims. I would select my sources more wisely... https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/free-west-media/

    KT LCD3 Problem

    Are you sure that the LCD is reporting the correct speed? Most direct drive motors contain 23 magnet pole pairs. Assuming that yours does too, you should set the following custom parameters for an accurate speed reading: P1=46 P2=0

    KT LCD3 Problem

    Have you confirmed that there is no speed limit set on the LCD display? The behaviour that you describe is exactly how an electric motor should behave - power peaks at standstill and tapers off to zero as you reach your motor's 'unloaded' speed. Around 2000W of power at the wheel is required...

    Grant Shapps wants a speed limit for cyclists

    We really shouldn't give this sort of nonsense the time of day. The only reason this has made the headlines again is to distract attention from the following leaked recording that has surfaced today (the real story is the comment at the 1:15 mark):
