Thanks for posting the picture , a very generous gap . At least with the magnet on the wheel the speeds and distances are reasonably accurately recorded . My Fat Tyre Folder has the sensor on the crank , no pedalling , no speed or distances show on the LCD . I have used GPS and known distances...

I have no knowledge of the Bosch set- up but had a problem with my Pro Rider Flare Dapu Mid Motor magnet and sensor . If the magnet on the front wheel has too great a gap from the pick-up, the display goes blank and the Motor doesn`t power . A ticking noise alerted me to a tight gap , so I put...

Markmi you ought to add another to your list , the NCM Paris . It is slightly heavier than some but has an excellent spec . i.e . front suspension , suspension seatpost etc. My 9 year old Batribike Quartz Folder is nearly identical and has electrics designed by NCM , then called Leisger and it...

My Brother and I are both over 80 years old and were riding our Ebikes the other night through the local Porthkerry Country Park when we passed a Cyclist on a bicycle pausing for breath . He remarked `cheating ` to which I honestly replied ` when you get to 80 you too will appreciate some...

I have a Fat Tyre Folder with 20 x 4 in. Kenda tyres and the recommended pressure is marked as 30 psi . I run them just a bit lower at 29 psi as I ride on tarmac .

Whatever the merits of the case I think the Cyclist was hard done by and have contributed a Tenner to the Go Fund Me started by a Friend of his . We Cyclists should stick together .

This Israeli Company has developed an Electric Scooter Battery that can be re-charged in 5 minutes . The Test on a Torrot Muvi Electric Scooter gave a 70 km range after charging to 100 % from 0 % in 5 minutes . The StoreDot batteries are Li-ion with less lithium than conventional batteries, but...

Phil look at Banggood.com , the XANES SFL-01 is good value , as all the lights are on this site . I have a similar one , the light is excellent and the charging easy .

Up a slope and into wind should have been mentioned . Reminds me of the time I was riding my Ariel Leader into a strong westerly wind and I couldn`t get it past 55 mph . Normally would exceed 70 mph . Ebikes exhibit similar traits , as do all cycles . I feel the same with my 37 year old Suzuki...

Thanks for the link to USB Testers VFR . I have ordered one with a trailing lead . Looks very useful for checking Chargers, as most items I order these days such as Bike Lights , Solar Security Lights etc . are all charged via a USB .

Thanks VFR for your suggestion . If I get any more trouble with plastic I will go down the aluminium route .

Thank you Daniel I have ordered one . Using longer clamp screws avoids applying too much force and consequent breakage . Incidently the Manufacturer in China came back to me in less than 24 hours and said they could supply one for pence but the Federal Express charge would be 50 dollars !

When fixing this Meter to the handlebar of my new Fat Tyre Folder I broke one of the clamps on the Bracket . I have failed three times to glue it using Araldite . It was a bit of a struggle originally to clamp to the handlebar which would have been a lot easier with longer screws . Does anyone...

Next time you pass a Road Sign you will notice that on the back there are usually metal sections to contain sliding adjustable clamps and these clamp around poles supporting the sign . Instead of poles think of your Battery being clamped and the metal sections as being bolted to your bottle...

Well I have now tested the Crivit Air Comfort Saddle and the Suspension Seatpost Combination on my Fat Tyre Folder and the ride is very comfortable . The Air Comfort Saddle can be pumped up to hard with 15 presses of the inflator bladder or in my case just 3 presses to give a soft setting . The...

Yes a bit of fabricating required . The water bottle holes are fairly close together for supporting a fairly lengthy and weighty object . A strip of aluminium about 1/8 - 1/4 in. thick by 1 in. wide or slightly more could be bolted to the frame using the cage threaded holes . . Perhaps you...

This design of battery normally slides down a rail fixed to the seatpost frame/tube . Either the seatpost has to be removed or some seats have a mechanism to tilt forward to enable the battery to be fitted/ removed . Was it your intention to fit it to the other tube usually holding a water...

No , it`s one of those silly bells that they seem to fit to Ebikes . They are small and have stubby levers and are permanently fixed to the brake lever alloy casting . My 9 year old Batribike has a nice built in Electronic Horn , but the last two purchases have these useless dingers . I sent to...
