    bamboo bike kit

    Currently I 've been parking my bikes outside for 2 months and no damage (other than rain) happened yet. I'd like to explore this option a bit more... It also saves so much space at home... plus i don't need to clean when it rains

    bamboo bike kit

    Nice bike but for many reason keeping it outside is the best for me. And unless I can put at least twice the battery capacity on the bike I can't really buy it :p

    bamboo bike kit

    I was thinking about something like a Cute100H, a BPM or BBS02. Favourite on the Cute100H as I had great experience with it in london. My main issues in london are (by magnitude of pain): - Rain damage (chain rust, throttle failure, controller failure related to it) - Very small flat so it has...

    Q100H 800W 25mph

    Yes will create a spanner to open the motor. I now really need help as the controller seems to be down. It was working while it was raining and suddenly stopped. It would sometime start again... but then stop for long time. When I went back home I decided to open it and use a dryer to remove...

    Q100H 800W 25mph

    I have a small hammer. It's really difficult to open, I'm not sure even if I buy a bigger hammer it will open as I think I'm much less strong than you. Any other way??

    I've been hammering for half an hour anti-clockwise: The bolt is completely bent now and I have load of marks on the table... Even the screwdriver head broke: And no sign of change from the cover mark?? I must have done something wrong or maybe the motor doesn't open like this...

    Kudos motors superdeal

    I used them as reference because they are proven efficient and reliable motor. As long as they are as good (or better) than the one I purchase d from bmsbattery I don't mind. Actually, as supplier you may have compared different motors and probably know how your ones compare to the commercial...

    Kudos motors superdeal

    Thank you so much. Are you able to list the motor model you sell as spare? I'm interested in the q100h, q128h, bpm2, xofo motors. Over 250rpm at 36v. Sine wave controller with strong regen would be good as well as the latest frame mounting batteries

    Derailler broke

    I understood this part. But they were not of any help. I specifically asked for a similar part even if it's not the same. They had no clues. Hopefully, drilling a hole by myself to fix it to my bike was the simplest option. I can't remember more than a few of time where the bike shops were...
