    Hello im Ken from NW England

    Currently a new 200wh Revos battery is £199 but no idea what current cells are used, I'm guessing they are still Panny PF ? For my current pair of Revos I can re-cell them my self for the cost of £88 using Eve 3100mah 10a cells. If I used the molicell 3500mah cell price would be double...

    Hello im Ken from NW England

    1. Range will be a little better likely 15% - 20% with 3500mah cells. 2. One needs a spot welder, nickel or copper interconnecting strips and some soldering skills and a few other odds and ends of items. For the Revos battery one is stuck with the cells Revos use and obviously the not so cheap...

    broken cable help

    Loctite sell a number of spec'd thread lock depending on the severity /force one want's a nut to be held in place. The 243 is a pretty medium universal thread lock to use and doesn't need the axle /nut to be spotlessly clean, the compound acts like a nylon lock nut and will take up any play...

    broken cable help

    I wouldn't worry about the axle threads /nuts as they have stayed put and haven't come loose yet. Simply get the Torque arms fitted on both side and secure them utilising that threaded tap hole, if bothered about the scaremongering of ruined threads clean them and the nuts with isopropanol and...

    S-Cross Central Display Oxygen ebike.

    Yes. Most use the 9 pin Julet waterproof connector which use a std pin layout. It is a bit extreme as a new hub and then the cost of getting it laced/trued up Vs a rather simple speed sensor fix that will only need a bit of time and about £15 to repair.

    Volt 4 Year Battery

    No issues keeping a battery indoors that ahs been looked after well. A bit of scare mongering tbh.

    Volt 4 Year Battery

    I assumed you are changing because of an issue, if there is no issue then no need to buy a new one or re-cell. Some batteries go on for 6, 7 years or more and for such a short journey will be fine. It is a sales pitch if they recommend to change it. I have batteries 7 years old still working well.

    looking to buy a controller

    The six pin plugs are old style and use an internal speed sensor. Show us a pic of the cable end that connects to the controller Phase and the three sensor wires, depending on this connection you might be able to use a sinewave Kt controller and display.

    Volt 4 Year Battery

    The volt looks similar to a silverfish case battery, if so it is a generic one bought for about £200 on ebay. If it isn't then get it re-celled for a lot cheaper then the dealer price.

    Easy fix to increase assisted range.

    With any easy riding bike system, it makes sense to lower the assist speed setting if one can access the settings. It's nice just having the extra zip of power at the offset and if one is sensible and uses the gears as normal it doesn't take much for me to go faster then the 13.6mph.

    Eventually you may see an error code but if it keeps switching off every 5 mins riding will become tedious.

    Easy fix to increase assisted range.

    My latest creation is the Alfine 8 hub geared Cotic Roadrat with G370 front mini hub motor, pleasingly the hub rides not that far off an unpowered bike thanks to the much lower internal motor gearing. This means riding above the 15.5mph is quite easy, to better improve range I have taken the...

    Kalkhoff Agattu 36v 17AH battery - near Lincoln - HELP NEEDED

    Naughty & bad practice using a metal tool, one should use a non conductive one. Those cells have either leaked or have seen water ingress, not surprised the welds have failed. Rusting will mean the conductive connection is also poor. At 9 yrs old it is time for a new battery/re-cell.

    Would appreciate a little shopper bike help

    For wheel nut tightness I just pinch them up tight and then give a good 1/4 to 1/2 turn.

    Would appreciate a little shopper bike help

    One can test the shopper with out a tyre, a simple static test will tell you if the bike works and if so one can also apply the brake at the same time to the motor wheel to see if the resistance causes any power issues with cutting out.

    S-Cross Central Display Oxygen ebike.

    Earlier in the thread I mentioned the battery as an issue as we had little facts of the cause, with an old bike one assumes the battery when vague postings as to why are given. The riding issue and shut down with no speed read out gives more info and a possible fault. A motionless bike gives...

    S-Cross Central Display Oxygen ebike.

    As WP has said, it is likely to be found stuck to the motor side plate as the magnetism will hold it and it has become dislodged. Magnets can be come demagnetised by excess heat, epoxy glue may have just softened a little to cause the dislodging or the set epoxy may have just failed and...

    The magnets are pennies, but usually one has to by a couple quids worth as they only are usually sold in lots of 20 or more.they are easily sought. Small neodymium round rare earth types on ebay, one needs to measure approx. the size required. An example link. Neodymium Disc Magnets Rare Earth...
