    Someone has modified a bosh motor to work with KT controller kit, I saw it either on ES or the german forum. They had to do some work with adding halls to the motor so might be worth a search to see.

    36v or48v

    I missed the Kt controller, 48v will work but if it is the 6 mosfet controller, watch out for over heating and thermal cut outs as at 48v they get very hot if one climbs hills slowly. Battery wise buy a 48v one.

    No black hall sensor wire

    The answer in no the strands are not the Gnd wire, the gnd wire will be Black sheathed all the way as the others are sheathed. A simple get around is to cut back the larger outer sheath a bit more until you find the Gnd wire and solder an extension to it, solder a separate Gnd to the PCB and...

    Eovolt Morning

    50km likley nearer 40 depending on the control system used, very flat terrain ans lowest assist wiht no head wind to max out the range. Of course mileage is unlimited if one pedals without assist.

    Do I need to file dropouts?

    One shouldn't do anything to the axle as the nuts are m12 x 1.25mm, any reduction on axle size is a no. On both drops outs inc the derailleur hanger there is ample material left if one was to remove up to 2mm. The hanger is easy as one can remove it to get a good fit, as long as one does...

    Is it possible to convert an 8 speed 11-32T to 10-32T?

    I don't need any custom storage or tranportation needs, the boxes I use are ideal and a UK std size for the hive footprint I use and the CF bed I made is ideal for my boxes in tandem.

    Battery issue

    One hasn't come back yet with a charger output voltage. The 50E is a good cell so one likely if only seeing 53.6v needs to speak to the vendor, as it is 1v short. To most 1v might not appear to be an issue, it does mean that somehwere something is not right which one shouldn't be pleased with.

    How to increase the assist speed - Lishui controller

    Trace where the wires go, two are obvious and cutting them will only disable the speed sensor so one will not get an odo reading and the other the PAS. The White wire adj to the thick phase wires is the motor Hall wire for the internal speed signal, this tells the odo the speed. The thin...
