    Ideas for mounting hydraulic brake sensors on M6000 levers?

    My street cred was ruined a long time ago, I just go fast enough no one spots me! I have no experience with these brake levers however for mine, Magura HS11, I found a stronger magnet then the one supplied allowed me to increase the distance between the sensor and magnet for better positioning...

    Thank God for walk mode and throttles!

    Cool vid Nice use of the word... I thought that about my area but I attacked the issue on two levels a quick search on our areas gov website and I found various paths and new places to explore made for bikes and the other way is every time I spot a public walk/bridle path sign I note it and...

    retro fitting throttle to new e bikes

    Even if you could fit a throttle it would void any warranty you would have with the new ebike, maybe best to consider a top end bike and conversion kit, if anything goes wrong with the bike per say, just remove the kit and technically it would still be under warranty assuming the kit did not...

    Which type of conversion?

    There's a few threads devoted to YOSE and they are cheap just bear that in mind, I purchased a rear 350w silver and the wheel cracked after a year, now I am using my YOSE 250w front which is 2ish years old used for 8 months it was not good as a 36v motor when windy but as a 48v motor it is...

    Which type of conversion?

    Front hub (250w-350w) geared hub especially if your thinking cheap kit 200-250 rpm 36v over-volt it to 48v changing the controller 48v-14a recommended and battery (10-14ah) to 48v and get brake sensors, easy(ish) install, better weight distribution (if you are on the heavy side of life) great...

    Stolen Raleigh Forge

    I have seen so many entry level ebikes cable locked to bike racks at M&S lately, I can't help but think £1000+ bike £15.00 lock, I too use two locks, three on odd occasions and remove my battery unless it stays in sight.

    Wanted D5 type Battery or case

    True - My mate spent a lot of cash on getting his bike all fixed up, gears, motor re-spoked and brakes, not mentioning his battery is in fair condition for its age, he mainly wanted a new battery to compete with my spare so we expand our range and venture out to pastures new... but it's not like...

    Wanted D5 type Battery or case

    Sounds about right, we are toying with the idea of ripping the controller out and replacing it with a KT system and hailong battery if the need arises. Have you tried the German pedelec forum there might be someone on there willing to sell one and ship it to the UK...

    Wanted D5 type Battery or case

    Oh snap - steve - but not my mate steve - and he's looking for one of these too, he was quoted £400 by ebikes direct with an order time frame of 8 weeks but we can only assume oxygen said they don't make them any more because ebikes direct el jefe said customer service got it wrong... Was going...

    Customisation of the Yosepower kit or other ebike kits

    With the addition of the 48v battery and the 14a dual voltage sine-wave controller on the 250w front YOSE hub a few issues have arose, firstly the above pictures and controller storage method is perfect for the winter months however it did not fare well as the bank hol temps reached 18 deg. 3.5...

    Ooh I do hope you are right, I had a creaking noise every few miles each ride so I stripped down the suspension forks, did a full clean and re-grease and it's now creak free, thank the stars as it was really getting on my...

    Cycling. Health. Covid. Diet.

    And interestingly until recent it was not considered hereditary, I have a family history of miss-diagnosed T2 being T1 and my mother was, as mine is classed as LADA and even though I do think lifestyle and diet (heavy drinker) played a big part in my onset, in my case several severe infections...

    Yose Power 48v 350W rear hub motor metalic sound causing alarm.

    My 350w Yose rear split at the spoke nipples rendering it useless and it happen again to the guy I sold the internal motor to, to fix his, lucky he had another wheel as a spare. It made one hell of a noise which if I didn't spot the spoke issue I would of assumed it was the motor at first...

    Skies are clear

    What I fear the most, that at this time of reflection the worlds super powers are pumping more money into the system, near to 4-5+ trillion dollars so far and this in turn stands to increase pollution and aid the wealthy to increase their portfolio while saddling the poorest with more dept...
