    Going from 250w to 350w is by way of programming as per endless sphere quote... , increasing the power output to 350 should be doable by increasing "keep current" from 30% to 42%. Controller can take 48v it's just that it's 36v to make it legal ,48v ups cadence and speed above the legal limit...

    Never mind the square or Isis, I remember bashing cotter pins in with a hammer to hold the crank arms,then the pins were threaded for a nut to go on the end to hold em in, as well as seeing folk going down the road with a loose one haha like a wooden leg going clunk.

    The Max Drive unit uses square taper crankset, the spider locates on the freewheel drive section by way of spline drive only looking similar to Isis, but secured by a heavy duty circlip,

    Number 4 the speed sensor is close to the tyre, that's the one I mentioned I had to cable tie as the fixed cable position is in poor location. Hope weather picks up over next few days so you can have a little fun

    Cut-off voltage

    You can try cycling the battery a few times to maybe improve the balance, fully charged to empty,straight on the charger again fully charge,repeat a few times see if there is improvement, if it's still really poor ,recycle bin time and get a new one, or get new one built into your shell.

    Good idea woosh, certainly there is a market for independents to get involved in building specialised bikes , you could do with Evans cycles to get onboard and sell a few to them in form of built bikes, as long as you take warranty claims onboard you would be ok, Evans dealt with Tern cycles...

    Good and informative Cyclebuddy, The price has fallen in the Greenway Max Dive not due to lack of demand for the product , it's down to their poor marketing it's listed everywhere as a mid drive bike, eBay local ads, gumtree etc. Not selling because buyers have no idea what it is, picture...

    The motor is detailed 36v 250w 14a, Bafang website lists that as the mm33.250 but looking at motor number on this greenway it is the 33.350 , this is listed in components section of Bafang website , the kit lists a 33.250 only , so they must of supplied the manufacturer with motors...

    Linky for "chain-glider"please anotherkiwi as I've not heard of them, I'm sure special tool not required for spider refitting, it's just a way of expanding circlip to go over the splines, and these greenway come with the 33.350 not the 33.250 motor so take 36.43,48v and at 48v will run 350w...
