£8,799!!! Are you going to do £10 off for forum members? That might swing it for me. Some people are going to jump at it, but I look at it and think "nice bicycle" then I look at this for slightly less:

Unfortunately, there's a possibility that you don't meet the diversity requirements for the position, if you know what I mean. You get some points for being old, but I don't think that's going to be enough. Mikel is Ghanaian and just coming up 18 years, and he's a lovely chap, but, like many, he...

I also have many qualifications in the field of quality assurance, industrial engineering, production engineering, sailing and model plane flying, just to mention a few of them, but like yours, completely irrelevant to this matter. Normally, I don't mention these things, but you specifically...

I teach here, but some are incapable of learning. That doesn't stop us from giving everyone an equal chance, though, and we generally persevere with those that struggle because some are just a bit slow to get it. The worst are those that think they know better or those that ask questions and...

This is an ebike forum.

Check the simple things first. You can get that if the speed sensor isn't correctly positioned. Also, are you sure it's not a battery issue? If the LCD switches off. It's probably the battery. If the LCD stays on, it's probably a sensor or motor connector issue.

It's not his fault. He hasn't seen these every month like we do: https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/melted-motor-wires.40615/ https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/xf001-bezior-phase-wires-burning-out.46452/ https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/sorted.44724/...

I used to buy them direct from DNP. You can do that too, but you have to buy a box of 25. They work out at about £10 each after taxes and everything else, then you can sell the remainder at a profit to help other people get them like I did, except I didn't make a profit. I just covered my...

I already gave you best practice. I'll add a couple of others: Avoid using any connector anywhere if you can Don't use bullet connectors Don't use chocolate box connectors Use the correct wire gauge considering the max current it must carry, and use silicone wire for batteries. Do not allow any...

If you have a cable brake, you should be able to change it for a hydraulic one, since the hydraulic hose can bend about the same as a cable. Fold the bike and see how much the cable has to bend. If it's too tight for a hydraulic hose, you can get one of those cable operated hydraulic brakes...

You have to tell us how much it is!

I don't think you understand the failure mode. When you wiggle the bullets in, it can stretch the barrels to the extent that they're making contact but there's no holding pressure. The plastic sleeve is tight around them, so you get the impression that they're in tight. When you demand high...

Years ago, I was talking with the Haibike rep while walking back to the hotel after a show. He covered a very affluent catchment area. He told me that the higher the price of the bike, the more of them he could sell because there was a sort of one-upmanship amongst his clientele. They had just...

Don't waste time with connectors. You don't need them because the battery is removeable using its own connection system. It's quicker, less work, cheaper, more reliable and more efficient (contact resistance) to solder the wires to each other. Chocolate box connectors might be OK for a 1 amp...

A good result; however, you shouldn't use chocolate box connectors anywhere on an ebike, least of all on any wires carrying 36v, and even worse on anything carrying high current. It'll be fine at first, so you trust it, but bare copper oxidises continuously in air until there's a compromised...

What about solder the two broken ends together? What about buying a rechargeable light, which will be 100 times better than that crappy one and will be a lot cheaper than a new bike? We could give much more specific advice if you would show us exactly what the problem is.

You can get a clue to whether it's the battery or something else by watching the panel on the handlebars. If you see the indicator lights going down before the motor cuts and the panel switches off, it's probably a battery problem. If the panel stays switched on and/or the indicator lights don't...

I was thinking that a devious person might do a Volkswagon on it, and make it so that it behaves one way (15mph) when tested and another way in normal use, like they did with their emissions testing? Something like the speed being limited for the first 10 seconds of demanding power on any level...

If you show us a picture of the battery, I can confirm. I think it’s thesame as one of my little folders, in which case the 36v version slots straight in and costs about £130. I didn't test whether it works directly with your present controller. They normally do, but if it blows, you can get a...
