    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    Obama got the Nobel prize for peace virtually as soon as he got elected. What did he ever do for peace? You get a Nobel prize when you do something useful for whoever's running the world. If someone got one for their work on the weather, they're work is probably fake.

    When you get your new one, it might be worth opening the old one to see what was wrong - pulled wire, water ingress, bad solder or whatever. Instructions for opening and one fix here: https://electricbike.com/forum/forum/main-forum/trouble-shooting/127059-bafang-860c-display-dead

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    Global warming was invented by politicians, not scientists. Scientists work for and get paid for politicians and big corporations with financial interests. they can produce whatever data is needed to tell whatever story their paymasters want. This is the reason why it's not possible to get...

    You don't need to do anything like that. I use my eyes my brain and my skin to determine the difference. I have over 70 years of real data that indicate to me that you get hot summers, cold summers, cold winters and warm winters, but overall no significant change during that time. Likewise the...

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    So what you're saying is that it's the increase in housing density that's caused the temperature to go up. This is what I've been saying. The sensors used to be in parks and fields, but now they're surrounded by concrete. There's something wrong with those graphs because in both areas it was a...

    correct. Thankfully, the climate has cooled down since then (50 years), so nobody needs to die these days.

    AKM thru axle hub

    The problem is that a through-axle motor isn't fixed to the axle. The axle goes right through the motor and screws to the frame, which is why I'm puzzled about how the torque is resisted. The stub on the right side is round and concentric, so can't do anything. The stub on the left side has an...

    Dead Bike

    What does "won't power up" mean? Battery won't switch on, Control panel won't switch on, panel switches on but the motor doesn't do anything, or what? If the control panel won't switch on, it's because it's not seeing battery voltage. If the battery doesn't switch on, it's probably gone to sleep...

    AKM thru axle hub

    Thanks for that. It doesn't look very secure to me. If I understand right, the torque is resisted by that little bit of aluminium. Is that right? Is there any way you can attach an arm to the motor, like if there are flats on the axle? A normal hub-motor has flats on the axle that slot into...

    AKM thru axle hub

    When the motor turns the wheel with force (torque). There has to be an equal force trying to turn the motor in the opposite direction, so you have to anchor it somehow. The more torque the motor gives, the stronger the anchoring needs to be. Normal motors have flats on the axle to which we fit...

    That's always a possibility, but my Q128 always works colour to colour, and I've never heard of anybody having problems with an AKM motor before.

    Folding bike for weekend cruising

    Don't go by what any bike advertisement gives for range, nor should you take any notice of what range anybody else gets on their bike. Range is specific for you and your rides. The main factors are your weight, fitness, how hard you pedal and what sort of hills are on your journeys. As you...
