    Help! HELP with QR ON EBIKE

    I would buy a used frame and transfer all the components over. Over the years I have done this a few times and is cheaper then buying a whole bike.

    Haibike sDuro HardSeven SL 2015 Yamaha (7 Month 1600 Miles)

    Ouch I know how you feel GH, I have come off once or twice on the S/Downs on a steep loose surface decent. When I feel the bike going I like to try and lay the bike down and slide in a controlled way if I can. Gravel rash ouch, and can smart for a day or so. Hopefully is it minor rashes.

    I have had a look and the board matches the pic of the old controller so should be ok.

    Help! Few questions - does this new motor sound normal? (video)

    The voltage won't be too much but the current might be , at 15s limit the current to 10 - 12a which is 560w - 672w and see how it goes. The caps ae 63v rated on 48v controllers so one will be at the max, how much safety limit they have above the rating I don't know.

    Help! HELP with QR ON EBIKE

    Drops outs look pretty worn to me, also brake side is missing a tension spring on the qr axle. The second pic the drop out face looks well mullered.

    Mid-drive chain and drive train wear measurements

    Chain snake oils are there simply to make money and catch the gullible, I simply use a gear oil for which a litre at a few quid lasts forever.

    Carrera Hellcat Conversion

    Folks need to get over this front wheel is no good for going off road, it is complete balderdash. I have had a BPM hub fitted in front forks on a mtb and been with on the S/Downs along all the gnarly places one can find to ride in the middle of nowhere way off from the SDW. Also have ridden...

    Protecting your ebike in damp and wintery weather. ACF-50 protection

    If the bike is sitting in damp shed then it will be prudent to protect it, the only reason I never use it is because my bikes are sited in; 1. A sometimes cold but dry porch bike can simply drip dry. 2. The hallway by a rad. 3. In a very dry garage that's usually above freezing unless we get a...

    Even Tongsheng looks like they are trying to stop motor controller upgrades their latest tsdz2 controllers in motors are different, the new version can't be upgraded using the current OSF firmware. The guys are recommending to make sure any model or controller replaced is an old type one. The...

    Help! Few questions - does this new motor sound normal? (video)

    My g370 is two stage gearing, in a 700c wheel it only freewheels five complete rotations given a good spin by hand. One is worrying over nothing. It is the ability of how the motor rides with no power that is more useful, the smaller geared hubs being lighter and with far better gearing ratio's...

    Really depends on how you prefer the power delivery on a mid drive cadence or TS.

    Help! Few questions - does this new motor sound normal? (video)

    With lcd4 one doesn't need to bother about battery bars as the display gives out real world voltage readings under load, I see about 0.3 - 0.5v sag under load in low PAS which is normal.

    The battery bars are only a guide and not very accurate regarding remaining charge, the only time they are really accurate can be with a full battery and when the they go out and the bike cuts out.

    KTM Elycan 27.5 with Panasonic rear motor

    What about battery connection to controller ? If the comm's are only charger to battery then one could ditch the BMS and fit a generic one and use a generic charger. But if the battery uses comm's to the controller as well then one can't.

    Private E Scooters to be Legalised

    Not so sure it would work very well esp with the low weight of a scooter, even on a bike the push and pull of a heavy weight towing is very noticeable at times. Not sure a scooter would have the brakes or stability to deal with doing so. Ok for lightweight, I saw a guy in Brighton towing a...

    Private E Scooters to be Legalised

    16" scooters aren't the norm, I certainly haven't seen one being used. They are all small wheeled jobs, though some do use a fat tyre. France banned them from the capitals pavements following two deaths of pedestrians after being hit.

    Always a good idea to inspect cables...

    Amalgam tape for that one in the pic, as it is hard wearing and w/p also sticks like you know what. Motor axels are hard and really need a tricky re wire.
