    Bosch Powerpack opening and repair

    And that's why I always scan the time line for "skip ahead" opportunities + increase the speed to 1.25 however most of the time this is because most YTers talk really slow. But on this occasion I had it on mute.

    Yosepower hub kits.

    I have 2x 36v batteries and I use the same charger for them, if I suspected an over charging issues not BMS related I would consider using my other charger instead, if the same fault occurs I would most likely put a pin in the batteries been at fault and look elsewhere. It is good practice to...

    What's a good concentrated chain cleaner like Simple Green?

    I use an aldi chain bath thingy - wilko spray degreaser and wilko "WD40" cheap enough compared with branded stuff. That green oil is very economical too, about 30ml(100ml bottle) used for a full year easy. Before this lube I used TF2, not the best but I got it cheap so I used it up. Green oil is...

    I have been using Green oil sold by chainReaction for 12 months now and recommend it, I clean my chain every 5-6 weeks, degreaser in a chain cleaner, rinse, WD, dry then lube. Whether or not that is the correct way to clean a chain is a personal choice, it works for me and I used to replace my...

    Hydraulic brake upgrade. But magnets no workie..?

    YOSE(KT) 1 to 4 is different to a standard 1 to 4 cable, you would of needed YOSE branded brake sensors. Glad to see you sorted it. When ordering 3rd party parts it's worth checking all the pics match before a purchase.

    New VAT rules for overseas sellers supplying goods to UK customers - Any experiences yet?

    Most Chinese sellers won't take returns unless major fault, in my experience the cost of sending a £100-£300 item back to China will out way the cost of a replacement. Most Aliepress sellers will request a video of the fault or some sort of email explanation of the issue - most will just ship...

    It's most likely because of the volume of emails sent via one static email address, I think I had to set a filter on my email account and occasionally I get one email from a "watched" thread only to find several new posts have been added, however there is never any emails in my spam folder...
