The screw is quite small and can be found on the pivot below the brake pad. Turn clockwise to increase spring action of the brake arm and anti clockwise to decrease. If you release the cable from the top of the assembly and try turning the screw in and out it, you will be able to feel how it...

I came across something to do with charging LiFePO4 batteries that made me scratch my head with confusion. It states that the battery can be charged using bleeding balancing or capacity balancing :confused: What does each one do and which is better for the battery?

Were you the person that wrote the review on their website?

I know you are after a kit with the BPM from Europe, but i believe that it will all end in tears :( Believe me, i'm after the BPM myself and have searched high and low, but nothing from Europe. One Chinese site i did find is this one: EBike Kits : BMSBATTERY!, The Art of Battery But as...

The person offering a genuine, quality, branded, mix and match service of electric bike kits in the UK will be a rich one me thinks. I bet many users of this site have searched high and low for the parts for their bike project, only to get cold feet about buying them. Why? A few reasons: 1)...

If only i had discovered this on the first battery sooner :( I just thought it was the bike stand bashing up and down, although i have noticed it has a weak spring, so mod no. 2 coming up ;) Unlikely SportsHQ will be perusing these threads or be inclined to action any mods if they do. It's...

On doing some detective work on a knocking sound coming from mid to rear of the bike, i narrowed it down to the battery. I've had two batteries now, with the internals of both slightly different. After unscrewing the 4 screws from the top of the unit the differences are as follows: 1st battery...

Definitely give it a go yourself before going to a LBS. My front wheel started creaking a few weeks ago. Plenty of loose spokes and the wheel was out of true (is that the correct saying???) Once i had studied the concept of how the spokes relate to the rim then i gave it a go. I tweaked the...

Point taken. Was gonna get a half twist throttle from their site. Anyone know where i can get a new one in UK for a better price?

Cheers onmebike for the info. I know the Cyclamatic isn't the most exciting of bikes to consider upgrading, but hey that's what this website is all about. Garden shed tinkerers unite :p As for the IC, there is one on the board, so maybe not such an antique after all. I'd be surprised if the...

Only kiddin :rolleyes:

Me neither :D

Although the one in the Cyclamatic appears to be very similar to the websites new controller, it looks to be a slightly older version, so maybe you're correct about the programming options or reduced capability. I was planning on a complete bike build ready for next summer and will need a...

Phew, it's tight in there :eek: The circuit board has 6 capacitors: 1 x large, 1000uF 50v 4 x medium, couldn't see values 1 x small, again couldn't see value 6 x MOSFET's F1010E 733P 8L U6 all heatsinked Might be these: 5 x F1010E MOSFET N-Channel 84A 60V Transistor IRF1010E on eBay (end...

I'm going to have another look, will post back here with info ;)

Whilst i make no claims to being an electronics whizzkid and you are absolutely right on stating whether it would be worth it, one thing still makes me wonder about how universal these controllers are. Let me explain. Some of the specs are are follows: * Rated voltage: DC 24V/36V/48V *...

I only had a quick check of wiring as it is a bit of a bird's nest. Looks like red/black/yellow/green/blue wires from motor. As for the low voltage cutoff, wouldn't the BMS in the battery take care of that?

I'm so tempted to just buy one of these 36v batteries and try it out without changing the controller. What's the worst that could happen, controller meltdown? Guess it will just end in tears though :(

The controller casing has a label printed with: 24v system Max 14A Rate 7A Low Voltage 21v Throttle adjust 1.2v - 4.4v Serial number: WS X09050019870 The circuit board shows: PS70A Reckon the Nanjing Lishui LSW70A Micro Controller is just an updated version. They do them in 24, 36...
