    Dave if you do not have an EBCT 19 OR EARLIER SUNTOURS CONTROLLERS you may have a job to get one as they are getting hard to find and will probably cost 60 quid or more unless you are lucky and find a cheap one

    I have an old original battery here too you will probably be able to repair the BMS the guy blew the fuse on it and the cells will not hold a charge so it’s on the scrap pile .

    The long silver tapered Raleigh Array BB uses the exact same or as near as like Chain wheel that the Suntours Crank Sensor bolts too. You just need to add the stop clip ie the metal ring that he torque sensor locating nibs lock into to stop it turning with the Crank.

    Good to talk to you yesterday Dave . I think best just scrap the repair of the Carrera STL Battery BMS unless you can identify the component that is stopping it from charging the battery it’s seems to be the main fault even if you can I doubt the component is available especially if as you...

    €700,000 ebike fraud?

    Agree but I think the Uk has been left sadly behind our manufacturing base is in bits and we are relying on shares in countries we have no control over or influence we are a land of consumers. Even the pants in M&S are cheap and do not last any more let alone the knickers!!

    I agree it’s too late to put the genie back in this particular bottle and the world would go into a recession a bad one without Asia , I just find it’s sad that we have let all our engineering and technology go to the east . One of the biggest problems the world faces right now is Trump the...

    CARRERA VULCAN E 2017 BOTTOM BRACKET

    That’s my Array with the longer BB as you can see it has the Crank off a Crossfife so just a different Suntours one that usually works with the Suntours BB PAS sensor all in one . So you do not need to find an original Vulcan one

    No the metal rings that are not on the silver ones . I was going to cut them off on my first Vulca to fit a PAS sensor magnet type . Stuck it on the crank chain wheel in the end . Look at the BB on the current Raleigh Array E bike , they work with the Suntours Crank which I have on sale on e...

    After the big parade in China it’s becoming very apparent that the rush by all the big companies in the west to take advantage of cheap labour in Asia could spell there own and our doom in the very near future. Sadly the winds of war are blowing again and the chips are all lining up like...

    With the charger plugged in there is voltage 42V across the the two terminals on the BMS that are connected to the charging port and the discharge port which are joined . But the voltage is flickering from 42V then less flicking on and off like an intermittent fault. And the charger is...
