    Silly mistake.

    This looks similar, the difference is the two white wires going to the small white block on the (no) current bms. Temperature cut out? Different wires too, no blue wire in mine, two black and one yellow...

    Silly mistake.

    Thanks for the videos. No fuse! Looks like it's fried the bms, a slight whiff of magic white smoke in there. So looks like there is room to fit a blade fuse holder, would that be wise, what amps? Thoughts on where to get a bms replacement?

    Silly mistake.

    No externally accessible fuse visible.

    Silly mistake.

    Silly mistake I just made. Went to take the battery off, stuck my key in the charging socket. Oops, brief flash. What have I done, is there a fuse? Display won't power up. Charge lights on battery still work.

    How many of you also own and ride a regular bike?

    Just converted my ordinary bike, I also have a Brompton and several unicycles, mostly 20" wheels, one 5ft high. See avatar. I do have a 27" road wheel one, that can travel at a fair pace.

    Ready to go.

    Bbs01 arrived yesterday. I put the bar end handles back on to protect the display if I have to turn the bike over. Fitted bottle cage on seat tube with an extra rivnut. (I got a rivnut kit from amazon). Thanks to whoever suggested it, I put the spare wires in a sunglasses case, neat and tidy...

    Bbs01 arrived and fitted, a question...

    ... About the charger and battery. Showed full on display, dropped a little on test. So my question about battery, the on/off doesn't seem to turn on/off, just lights up the level indicator. I plugged in charger, red light on charger, nothing showing on battery, unless I press the on/off...

    UK’s first e-scooter trial scaled back amid widespread misuse – including underage riders zipping through shopping centres

    I checked this out with the intent to post on another forum, mainly inhabited by tory gimmers :rolleyes:. The Quitling press is claiming its not true. Shame its not.

    petition to increase the speed limit

    Can almost see my house on that pic, just a bit to the right! You are only limited to 15.5mph when e assisted, not when freewheeling downhill. If you want a bit of adventure next time, take the old road down, just on the right of the stone. On a very clear day you can see the cathedrals in...

    Newbie needing touring bike

    I agree. I have a hybrid I'm used to, pannier racks front and back. I just fitted a pair of cheap sprung forks, I just had to make a couple of triangular ish S/steel plates that fit the drop out, one hole for mudguard fixing, another to take the pannier leg, slot for the dropout. I'm waiting for...

    petition to increase the speed limit

    I fail to see the case for this "layered approach, things cant change". Bikes can and do travel over 15.5 mph regularly. Always have. Not a problem then or now. We need to get people out of cars and consequent pollution into various electric vehicles. Pedelecs are more efficient in the use of...
