    Help me source this part

    I am struggling to find this connector other than wholesale http://m.chinacomputerparts.com/pz671015e-cz56b7c98-motor-connector-hg-f-z919.html E bike technologies.de doesn't have it, not does BMS battery etc. I want it for my Carrera so I dont have to butcher the original parts to change the...

    Carrera crossfire/vulcan tuning

    I've hit a dead end. I am going to replace the controller. I want to minimize soldering, the motor wire is a HG-F-Z919. Finding this for sale has proved impossible so far. So If I can't get hold of this I'm going to have to solder a new controller or add crimp connectors. Another problem is will...

    You can also get torque simulating controllers which vary input base on cadence

    Ebike 700c throttle.

    Plenty of throttles cheap on ebay, buy a spare though some are flimsy

    Ebike 700c throttle.

    In the second image I think I see one not plugged in? If it has 3 wires that would be your throttle. If not it's still possible, just buy a new controller that takes a throttle, if you get the right one it will also allow speed increase. Try to get one with the same amp rating as higher amps...

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    They have it, only thing is can't guarantee the wires are in the right place as the connector on the bike appears to be made by suntour. The rest are julet branded.

    Torque arms for rear wheel drives - are they really necessary?

    If your bike has the anti rotation washers and it's not stupidly high power you'll be fine without. Front wheel is a different matter

    How to add a throttle to a Carrera Vengeance E Spec

    A thought has just occurred to me. We don't need a new controller as there are loads to choose from already. However i cannot find one with a motor connector the same as the suntour one. If you could help me make an adapter to the more common types of connection then in theory I could use a...

    Carrera crossfire/vulcan tuning

    I could be chasing my tail but I'm not giving up just yet. If my hunch is right and the controller is a tongsheng, perhaps putting one of their displays on that allows the hidden settings would be enough to be able to tweak. If not then there is software available. If I'm wrong then the only...

    Carrera crossfire/vulcan tuning

    Yeah my old one was the same. Shame it was a piece of crap

    Carrera crossfire/vulcan tuning

    After some digging I think the controller may be made by tongsheng. I have asked them to confirm, and how to configure. I could be wrong as there are no markings that I can see, this is purely based on product styling. I have tried a hidden settings method I found online but it didn't work for...

    Days numbered for over 250w pedelecs??

    I was expecting a much more wild ride from your comment :p I tend to avoid crowds of people because noone looks where they are bloody going these days.

    Which bike should I have bought?

    My carrera is too damn slow and cuts out occasionally. Could do with a bit more capacity for range, I can get 40 miles but its hard work in eco. Oh and no throttle. Otherwise It's a fantastic bike capable of all the trails I do. I originally wanted a whoosh rio but needed finance. Any other...

    Days numbered for over 250w pedelecs??

    My old bike was pretty nippy once I installed a throttle, somehow that derestricted it (falcon spark) and I was able to ride it on shared routes safely. The trick is keeping the brakes setup properly, and only going flat out where you are sure there will be no surprises. I always slow down for...

    Carrera crossfire/vulcan tuning

    I would say that but on a full battery it gives up just shy of 17mph and on empty it's the same behavior until it gets too low to function. If it were just windings there would be a difference in speed in different charge states. I can't reliably test speed with the sensor blocked but now I'm...

    Carrera crossfire/vulcan tuning

    So there's hardly any difference if any with the speed wire blocked, blocking any hall wires just gives an error. That leaves changing or programming the controller. Changing will be a pain as there is no controller I know of with that big motor connection preinstalled. Going to just try and get...

    Wanted 27.5 hub

    I've decided to hell with suntours system and its issues, anyone got a 36v 27.5 hub they want rid of? Going to use the existing battery and ditch the rest, preferably something high torque like bafang swx02 or bpm. Oh and cassette preferred
