    Brake upgrade. Mechanical or hydraulic

    I saw the Risun ones when I bought the 48v 250w tsdz2 and thought they looked quite good value , however the AliExpress ones are fairly similar and and they all look like shimano copies of the lower end budget HDB's so should generally do a good job.

    Assist cuts out occasionally

    A replacement/new battery will solve the issues or choose less hilly routes , it is a simple fact of science that batteries will age, once they age they simply can't deliver the performance as when they are new. Internal cell resistance and heat are part of the ageing process of a battery and...

    Assist cuts out occasionally

    If it only occurs on hill climbs then battery voltage sag is the cause, when the voltage sags it hits the battery BM LVC so the power will cut out. A fully charged battery can usually deal with it but once the battery voltage reduces thru use then the likelyhood is and older battery will...

    Brake upgrade. Mechanical or hydraulic

    I would be inclined to stay away form zoom /tektro brands. I had tektro on my Ute cargo bike but they were fairly poor braking wise no matter what I did to try and imptove them, in the end replaced with shimano 4 pot front and 2 pot with disc upgrade rear for far better braking.

    Brake upgrade. Mechanical or hydraulic

    They look pretty much like clones of the similar Shimano entry hdb's so are likely quite good. If one buys 2 pin brake connector in error they can also be used with controllers with 3 pin connectors, simply omit the 5v ( insulate the 5v) from the 3 pin and solder up the other two. Cut offs...

    Battery dies quickly, next stop scrappy ?

    Same here all old batteries have cells dismantled for torch use or other smaller 12v packs . My pair of dolphin batteries and an old Sam 22f pack (all 36v) still hold good voltage but sag with heavier current draw so are used as DC supplies for my beekeeping electric centrafuge extracator which...

    Battery dies quickly, next stop scrappy ?

    Before I dispose of a battery , I try and find out the reason for the poor performance but in most cases I already know the batteries short comings from past use and diagnosis.

    Battery dies quickly, next stop scrappy ?

    One needs to measure the ten cell voltages at both charged and discharged levels to see what is occuring, one way or another one should give an idea as to what is wrong.

    greenedge display - eBikes Direct (e-bikesdirect.co.uk) £90. For that money , I would replace all the electronics with a new KT controller kit set up for about the same money. edit: Probably the one already found as mentioned in #1, best option is the KT route and one can get a better...

    Heartbroken family pay tribute to teen 'who loved going out with mates' after e-bike crash

    Exactly so no point on users jumping on the derestiction hobby horse as in this case it has nothing to do with the accident or bike in use.

    Error code 532 and 602

    Take it to Halfrauds (if under warranty) or a bosh dealer to plug in for a diagnostic report . 532 is possibly battery contact error with the upper and lower contact points . I have seen a utube film of such a code error and possible remedy. 602 is an internal battery error whilst charging...

    Help! Raleigh Strada TSE controller

    Battery dies quickly, next stop scrappy ?

    If one gets a better range and less sag in lower power/PAS modes then one can ascertain that the battery is worn but useable however one may only see this if the controller uses current control where current is incrimental with PAS selection. If speed control is used then current will be much...
