    Good beginners bike? £370

    Now says unavailable so either sold out or just a teaser to get folks buying them, I expect like a lot of these offers the operating system will be quite rudementry and a crappy speed controller that gives little user control.

    New E Bike

    HESC is a 36v power supply and like most bikes uses 5v for peripheral component hall sensors. Pas is torque sensing . There is one no common denomator that causes the failures /cutting out. Some have issues with the TS, some say it the motor connection , I my self think it is partly down to an...

    Another Ebike conversion kit death

    Problem with higher power kits is the poor choice or supply of the battery to be capable of safely delivering the current, it isn't the kit that is dangerous so pointless scaremongering. The charging process is that which people don't understand and they likely leave the battery charging not...

    Help! Error 25 Yose rear wheel kit.

    I found fitting both BBS cut offs a pain , so ended up only with one . It was much easier to sort out if the magnet or sensor had issues.

    Assist 20" ebike project / doner bike

    For a kit buy light weight 100mm front motor , a small battery either in a saddle bag or in the triangle and a KT 15a controller kit . With the KT one can limit the speed to under 15.5mph, reduce the current so less power but above all they use current control so the start off is gentle and not...

    Hemiway Cruiser

    With 31.5v the manual is referring to a 36v battery, 41v is the lowest one will want a 48v battery to go but typically 42 - 43v is a better lowest value. They haven't re written the values for 48v usage. The 15a will give a theorectical 720w but once one takes into account motor efficacy...

    Help! Error 25 Yose rear wheel kit.

    It depends on the controller , if the motor over runs then one coul dend up blowing a mosfet by using brakes with no cut out to prevent over run. One reason why Kt's are so good there is nil detectable over run .

    Can anyone suggest hub conversion kit options for a Dahon Helios P8 with 74mm front axle and 130mm rear?

    I don't know for sure but expect it was 20a + , he and a few on ES wanted more power but the Q100/AKM100 couldn't take it. 17a is a max safe limit , the T06s comes in three flavours 15, 17 & 20a. Topbikekit sell the gears anyway so easy to get hold of and may be worthwhile buying a spare set...

    Can anyone suggest hub conversion kit options for a Dahon Helios P8 with 74mm front axle and 130mm rear?

    Yes if a listing doesn't show the RPM then one will have to go by the wheel size for a RPM listing. I would say 17a max for the lightweight hubs, even the akm100 is 20a max as many users on ES years ago including Cwah mashed the planetary gears with too much power. If you want more power then...

    It needs as simple volt meter rigged up Eddie, then you can use the voltage as a much better indication. It ha always been said on here leds or battery bar meters are pretty much useless.

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    Looks like they are rigging the prices again from April , with gas wholesale prices coming down the retail price is going up for both KWH & SC. Also the electric is being rigged KWH unit price a bit lower but hiking the SC. Welcome again to RIP OFF Britain.

    Which shop in/near Ipswich should I go to, to have someone look at/fix my Pendleton?

    It really doesn't help that you made two posts of the same fault , one would have sufficed and then all answers would be in the same post. As to which LBS to visit if you can't repair it , then I would say halfrauds as they sell the bike. But tbh I would say go to a LBS who know what they are...

    Help! Pendleton Somerby Electric Bike (Dec 2019) Battery fully charged but no power to wheel

    If the walk assit works then the Hall sensors in the hub are fine , your issue will likely be the pedal assist sensor on the bottom bracket .It is easy to check that the gap and sensor aligns with the magnets as they pass.
