It's not looking good for fitting a standard one in the standard way. There's not enough room on the drive side and there's some sort of weird sleeve over your BB spindle that's probably just to keep the dirt out. If it were my bike, I'd go for no. 2. You will need a lock-ring and you'll have...

It's square taper. There's not a lot of room on the left side. Can you show the gap between the chainwheel and the BB on the drive side.

Photos still don't show the diameter of the spindle. Have a look from underneath. Is it a spline or a square taper?

Take it off = remove the throttle from the handlebars.

It's held in by barbs inside the tube. You have to take it off to access them. There are normally three that have to be lifted simultaneously, which is very close to impossible.

It depends which bottom bracket you have. You didn't say and your photos don't show.

It's impossible to follow the wires in that photo. You need to untangle them and spread them out so that we can see where every wire goes. Your blue phase wire isn't connected. Your bike won't work like that, but it's not the cause of your problem. Likewise, there is some bare metal on your...

Juddering is normally a sign of play in the headset. You can normally feel that by pushing the bike back and forth with the front brake on. If it's bad, you feel clunking. It's not so easy to detect if there's a small amount of play. The easiest way to feel it is to place your fingers over the...

It's all standard, so nothing to worry about.

You can fit any type with a straight 1 1/8" steerer tube. Measure from the bottom to top of the steerer on your present forks and make sure the steerer on the replacements is at least as long. If you want comfort, air forks are pretty well mandatory.

Why don't you fit a bar-end mirror, which will give you a clearer view and not take any space on your handlebars? I use the Zefal Cyclops, which I've found to be the best mirror out of the plethora that I've tried. It has a double folding mechanism, so can easily be tilted out of the way if you...

Cut-off happens at around 31v. If you had say 3v of sag on max power, that would happen when you had a resting voltage of 34v. If you do cut-off because of low voltage, you can often continue on for a few miles if you set a a lower PAS level.

Let us know how you get on with it.

That's a shame. It's a good way to put your ebike to use and get fit at the same time. Stab-proof vests are only £17 on Ebay. I got one for my weekly visit to the coop to get my milk, when I have to walk past the primary school. I would apply myself but I can't walk or pedal far at the moment...

Are you going to apply?

Sorry to hear that. I hope you get your problem sorted. personally, I have a fatalistic approach to my life, so health problems don't really worry me, but I can imagine that your situation must be very worrying. I was kicked out of hospital with lungs full of blood clots and a prescription...

You normally get assistance to around 20 mph, but power will ramp down from 15 mph, which gives a speed of about 18mph on the road.

I plugged the mains directly into my lithium battery. Those connectors used to be supplied on the BMSBattery 20Ah block batteries. I hadn't noticed that the lead had become unplugged from my charger, so I just picked it up and plugged it in. There was a big bang and the mains fuse blew, luckily...

There isn't much else you need other than the motor kit. I would get the gear sensor. Without it, you will mess up a gear change sooner or later, which could do a lot of damage and leave you stranded. The gear sensor works quite well and gives you peace of mind.
