    PSWPower - which 48v G70 battery - or neither?

    Yes, I've looked at Greenlance, but their battery carriers don't look as good an option as the G70 type. I don't need a controller compartment. There are four mounting holes on the G70 carrier and the battery has 4 evenly spaced locating clips. Only two of each on Greenlance's. Greenlance are...

    PSWPower - which 48v G70 battery - or neither?

    Now I've got two KT controlled bikes, the next step is 48v rather than 36v. I've been looking at PSW's Hailong G70 batteries, mainly because the brackets have more fixing holes and seem to offer more flexibility in fitting in the restricted space in the frame triangle. Cell types and capacities...

    New KT Display

    I ordered the new KT-TF01 display from Topbikekit and fitted it yesterday. The good:- It is a very compact unit and is useful if cramped for space on the handlebars. Colour screen is very clear, although I've not used it in bright sunlight yet. Settings interface is much more user friendly...

    29er MXUS XF07 wheel build, good idea, bad idea?

    I've noticed if you look at PSW via ebay or Ali the prices are higher and presumably include VAT and if over £150.00 import duty. It seems that if you order from PSW's own store this isn't included. Has anyone ordered direct recently, and did you have to pay any extra on arrival? That would at...

    Yose Power 250w. motor with KT upgrade - first impressions and a question

    Just a small update if anyone is interested. I fitted the KT controller and LCD3 display using a 4-in-1 cable from TBK. In an idle moment, and feeling a bit brave, I decided to see if the Yose Power 4-in-1 cable that I already had would have the same wiring sequence, so I temporarily swapped it...

    New KT Display

    On a slightly related note, I've discovered that the Julet waterproof cables on all KT displays sold by TBK are 45cm long. They list models with SM plugs separately with 180cm cable length. Other vendors (eg PSW) sell one model with a Julet cable at 22cm that comes with a 160cm SM extension...

    New KT Display

    Thanks for the links. I've managed to download the user manual, but the other link keeps timing out on me at the moment. It seems to be an updated version of LCD5, so doesn't display watts, but appears to show ambient temperature. The user manual doesn't give any instructions for C settings, but...

    New KT Display

    Browsing Topbikekit I've come across a new display:- https://topbikekit.com/2024-new-kttf01-lcd-display-24v36v48v-with-5vusb-p-1325.html?zenid=4fgmho6l5t9nla46an11i71hn4 Has anyone got one of these yet? It is a very compact design, with a colour screen, USB port and apparently waterproof. I'm...

    nut size

    Yes, it was here (post #4):- https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/pedal-help.47902/#post-726753 If you'd tried that you wouldn't have messed up your crank arm.

    Yose Power 250w. motor with KT upgrade - first impressions and a question

    Yes, I'd prefer an enclosed box - see the first pic above which housed the previous Lishui controller. Unfortunately the new KT was just too big to fit in it and the next size up in enclosures that I could find was far too big to fit where I wanted. I've got another bike with a Lishui controller...

    Yose Power 250w. motor with KT upgrade - first impressions and a question

    In my case the space is taken up already by a small saddle bag containing a spare innertube, tools etc. Also, as I am a bit shorter in the leg than average the space between the rack, mudguard and saddle with 700c wheels is rather small. In the first installation I had the battery mounted on...

    Yose Power 250w. motor with KT upgrade - first impressions and a question

    I didn't get the integrated controller for the Hailong H1 battery slider because it's only 15A, and Topbike kit don't actually say that it's a KT controller in their listing or if it's dual voltage. I'd also already fitted the separate Yose 18A controller in a black electronics enclosure...

    Yose Power 250w. motor with KT upgrade - first impressions and a question

    Absolutely! This is on my 700c wheeled hybrid that has v-brakes. It's a nice enough bike that I got at a good price as bankrupt stock. It had taken second place, but has now moved up to first again. It has a a rear dropout for disc brakes but the forks don't. So I've been scouring ebay and...

    Yose Power 250w. motor with KT upgrade - first impressions and a question

    About 20 months ago I fitted one of my bikes with a Yose Power 250w. rear cassette hub kit. Not satisfied with the rather crude operation from the YJT 15A controller, I fitted a Lishui 18A controller that Yose supply with their 350w kits, which was a big improvement. However, I have been...

    downtube battery

    I've found old fashioned toe straps are cheap and effective. Link two together for a larger battery. https://hopkinsoncycles.co.uk/product/nylon-toe-straps-pedal-bike-bicycle-spin-exercise-cycle-gym-bulk-wholesale/

    pedal help

    You have the sensor mounted on the downtube. Can you fit it on the seat tube instead, which is narrower? This would allow you to move the disc further inboard and tighten the crank on the square taper?

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

    Just to round this off, I've managed to find and order a 20A KT sinewave controller from PSW Power (via one of their ebay vendor names - elifebike 2). At 96x61x35mm it will fit in the enclosure on my hybrid and I'll be using it at 18A to compare with the Yose controller. There's also a KT LCD-3...

    So would you consider the KT controller setting that I detailed in post#62 legal? "Also, I've been studying KT controller settings in advance of buying one. There are various settings under C4 Throttle Function Parameters. Under P4=1 Non-zero startup, Value 3 is " Before power-assist, the...
