If you have to carry a brick on your bike, the worst place to put it is in the rear wheel. It makes the bike feel heavier than it really is. That's one of the reasons why all in one wheels will never be a big success. I can see a front wheel all in one solution making a moderate success for...

that kit looks like dream stuff.

they are niche products. how do their numbers compare to the output of companies like Lishui, KT, Bafang etc?

so they are successful because they are part of a big group or their product builds their success?

I am not certain by just looking at the picture you posted. At first look, the rear wheel has normal quick release skewer, not a through axle bolt. You can fit a rear hub kit or a bottom bracket motor kit. We have several rear hub motors in stock. I suggest you call us and talk to Andy (01702...

the concept isn't new, it's just another Copenhagen wheel. what did you see in this product? Copenhagen Wheel - Wikipedia

. as volume rises, you gotta go big or go niche.

Bosa's first thread about the Neodrives is telling about the prospects of local manufacturing. Alber GmbH makes wheelchairs and electric wheelchairs. So they have already got the motor and electronics. What's wrong with selling the kit as Neodrives Z20? I reckon the volume is just not there and...

I think there is more than that but also think flecc is right, people buy kits because of the obvious savings beside the satisfaction of knowing all nooks and crannies in your bike. Coming back to the subject uk companies which design and manufacture here in the UK. That's a subject that I...

they deserve to be successful. They spotted a gap in the market, at the right place and the right time. Most local bike shops just don't have their expertise.

You can use 13 gauge spokes with the DWG22C but the flanges are drilled for 12 gauge spokes.

No, the DWG22C has standard 10x12 motor axle. 10mm for the dropout, 12mm wheel nuts. No need for torque arms when used with the supplied controller. Yes, they are in stock. We have them in 26", 700C and 650B rims.

My battery suppliers always query why I want a fuse. I explain to them that my customers prefer to have a fuse. They don't charge me extra so everyone is happy.

My bms is set for 28A, the fuses are 20A. They are there in case the bms fails. You can short the battery without blowing the fuse, you do damage the connectors though.

I have fuses in my batteries for belts and braces. The BMS has overcurrent protection which acts faster than a fuse.

A lot of stuff comes from China, not worth obsessing about that. In my previous reply to you, I pointed out that most big brands battery cells are made in China, bosch and bmz have factories in China making parts and sub-assemblies for their European facilities. Two thirds of the worlds chips...

I have seen a few damaged rims where both front and rear brakes are V-brakes. This does not happen when the front is disc and rear is V-brakes or when the motor is a crank drive.

she is small. How about converting a small bike like the Specialized Hotrock with a TSDZ2 kit and a bag battery?

Additional problem with v brakes is rapid wear of the braking surface on the rim. This is made worse if you have a rear hub, the increased inertia eats the rim in about 2,000 miles.

... and LCD only, no throttle! Keep the wiring neat and tidy.
