    Yosepower hub kits.

    Took the motor out, the gears and cogs all look in mint condition, all rotated ok, no ingress of wd40, just the black grease on the cogs/gears, no plastic or any wear I could see. I couldn't figure out how to remove the freehub but a peek inside showed nothing burnt out or wires dislodged but...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Have linked another video below with bike on stand, am applying the rear brake to replicate load on the hub. it's a 36v motor using the yosepower hailong integrated controller in the battery mount which I think is rated as max 15a. I have checked the motor cables all look good. Is it easy to...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    It's definitely a grinding noise. have linked a video of the noise taken earlier while riding. it's only noticeable in assist level 3 (starts at about 130w) and up and is very loud in top assist level 5 (as shown in video) , so linked to how much work the hub is doing. no issues with spokes...

    I like it's simplicity and the retro look, it might well be all that you need. As you say, never worth the original price, but at the price you paid, it compares well against the cheap entry level Halfords stuff or the cheap chinese stuff on Ebay, plus , as you say, it doesn't scream NICK ME...

    Carrera Crossfire-e/Vulcan owners, new replacement battery, charger and mount £240

    Yep, I got a quote for having the motor hub rebuilt with a strong ebike suitable rim (angled eyelets) and sapim strong spokes from a wheel builder who had experience with ebikes, might do this in the future. In the meantime have got it down to about 20-30 mins without having to take the wheel...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    correct, remove the plastic spacer before fitting. be careful to not overtighten the rotor screws, the motor hub metal that the rotor is screwed into is aluminium

    Cube Cross Hybrid Pro 625 AllRoad

    Nice, very nice. Top of my current wish list is the Cube Kathmandu Hybrid Pro 625 at £2699, a 15% discount on that would be nice, you did well to get that discount on a brand new model with the 625 powertube battery and the gen4 cx motor... enjoy, look forward to a review
