    3-D Printer

    I am thinking of buying the Bambu Lab A1 mini after watching this video. I didn't think it was possible to print a 7-segment LED lens.

    3-D Printer

    I have an old Replicator 4. It's just not worth buying a replacement extruder. I still use the remaining good extruder. My main problem is I cannot print any thing taller than 3cm, I think the print detaches itself through vibration.

    3-D Printer

    I have changed my heated plate and nozzles. Not difficult at all. One of my two filament feeders has died. It's one of the reasons I am looking for a new printer.

    The Gran Camino has Suntour XCM 100mm fork with remote hydraulic lockout and bolt through 12mm maxle which costs twice as much as the Suntour NEX 63mm on the NCM and about as good sprung coil forks are going to get without going air forks. The Gran Camino has internal cable routing, the NCM...

    XF08 in narrow dropouts - advice needed

    Yes, we do. When I convert a bike with shallow dropouts, I have a very good a 10mm round file. I spend 5 minutes deepening the dropouts. The risk with shallow dropouts is not as big with a rear hub compared to a front hub. The rear of the bike does not bounce as much as the front. You also put...

    XF08 in narrow dropouts - advice needed

    It's a lot of faffing for no real benefit. Millions of those rear hub kits have been installed without torque arms. Have you ever heard that their wheel comes off on normal road?

    Any new (radical) commercial developments in 2024-2025 and onwards?

    the cost of making Bosch style crank drive e-bikes has come down a fair bit, I expect we'll see more 'Chinese Bosch' next year.

    Discharge Converters?

    The box itself is miles safer than soldering a couple of ideal diodes in a heat shrink junction. I think the tech is safe but there are always shorting risks. It is best to avoid adding more wiring to your bike unless it's unavoidable.

    Discharge Converters?

    I guess they use a pair of ideal diodes.

    Does anyone actually use the term 'Pedelec'?

    I think we imported the word 'pedelec' from German, as in pedelec.de. EAPCs are commonly called pedelec in German speaking countries. If I remember correctly, 50cycles used it on their website.

    Does anyone actually use the term 'Pedelec'?

    I use the term 'pedelec' for e-bikes that has torque sensing and no throttle, you get x times your own input power.

    What stops a Japanese factory exporting NIL molds to China? If I had shares in ASML, it will be time to sell.

    Seeking Advice on Affordable Ebike for 20-Mile Daily Commute (£500-£600 = Budget)

    There is no provision for attaching brake sensors. If you convert bikes professionally, this kit is well worth considering because of its simplicity.

    it is dead simple: pop the 48V battery in, make a simple change to the setting of battery voltage on the LCD from 36V to 48V. That's it.
