    Woosh Woosh TS BB kit

    I agree that the power should be reduced when you put less pedalling force. what I mean by "the BBTS is not programmed to reduce power before reaching the speed limit" is Bosch for example reduces the power when the speed approaches 25kph before cutting off while the BBTS will cut off as soon as...

    Pedelec with Gates beltdrive and no gears

    congratulations for yet another excellent idea! BTW, Tongsheng/Aikema now have your integrated torque sensor in their motor, AKM85TS, 2kgs, cassette. I will be stocking them soon.

    I am sorry for ther delay. I will remind Andy later this morning. This is common to most torque sensor systems. The motor won't start until the bike moves though. The initial push-off is supposed to help you starting off. It should only last very little time, just enough for the sensor to get...

    King Meter KM-529 assist levels

    I don't have a configurator for Lishui controllers but I have different firmware files / profiles. The Lishui controller with factory programming behaves like in this video: The motor will not cut out before you reach the speed limit as set in the LCD settings in all assist levels, from 1, 2...

    Folding bikes

    I use my converted Brompton to ride around town. It's main advantage is lightweight compared to my other e-bikes, the motor adds 1.5kgs and 10AH battery under 2kgs. I can pick it up with one hand by the saddle and carry it up a few steps. Try picking up and carrying any other electric bike by...

    Eleglide experiences

    those cable operated hydraulic brakes have some of the qualities of hydraulic brakes like the pads are long lasting, auto-centre and auto-adjust but they don't compare well with normal hydraulic brakes. The hydraulic circuit does not need greasing like cables do, does not compress, have much...

    Battery Weight vs Range... a dilemma

    I would have continued with the Rambla if Bafang didn't put up their price when the worse of covid ended. Replacing the MaxDrive with the Ananda saves me $150 on each bike. I can keep the lid on the £1,500 price range.

    Assist cuts out occasionally

    No. However, his lcd stays on and controller cuts out points to controller overheating as the probable cause.

    Which Hybrid would you recommend?

    From my point of view, mid drives are just as reliable as hubs.

    Assist cuts out occasionally

    he rode that bike and kit for 5 years. The most he had to do is to switch the battery off and on again to reset the controller.

    Which Hybrid would you recommend?

    My choice would be a tsdz8 kit on a full sus donor bike.

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    I think ICE car manufacturers and petrol companies can do better when they have to. They can make their cars more fuel efficient, 100 miles / gallon cars are very possible. I use E10 fuel which has up to 10% ethanol in the mix, a shift to more renewable fuels is gaining wider acceptance.

    that can be. We should not rule anything out at this stage.

    Assist cuts out occasionally

    if you know that it will probably be OK again after 10 minute rest, then don't do anything just yet. Wait until there are more repetitions so you can narrow down the possibilities. It would be useful if you could post here everytime the problem re-occurs. yes.

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    there are lessons there to be learned. I was looking around for an electric car and the high cost of insurance put me off again and again. Their acceleration ought to be reduced to match their ICE cousins'. BTW, Nvidia self driving platform passed level 3. You can take your eyes off the road on...

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    I think it's the digital coins that drive up the gold price. Higher digital coin price leads to excess liquidity leads to higher share price, house price, gold price and lower interest rate. Biden needs it, Sunak needs it, Macron needs it to support their claim that the economy is doing well.

    "Police stat shows that 260 electric powered bicycles were seized by officers last year"

    that was a minor point in the calculations of kinetic energy. at 15.5mph, kinetic energy of 80kg object : 0.5 * 80kg * 6.94m/s * 6.94m/s = 1,941J at 20mph, the same object would have: 0.5 * 80kg * 8.91m/s * 8.91m/s = 3,175J The damage in a collision will of course depends on a lot of other...

    it could be temperature related. Controller overheating is a real possibility. What is the local temperature when you went for the last ride? Also, did you get in touch with Andy?
