    Broken my 'new to me' Wisper bike after 5 minutes

    1. battery is full but on your video, battery capacity LEDs are not all lit. Were they all lit before the accident? If they were, then the LED panel needs replacing. the pedal sensor has 3 wires, usually black (connected to bat-), red and another colour. You want to measure the voltage of the...

    Broken my 'new to me' Wisper bike after 5 minutes

    your best course of action is probably to contact Wisper for support. It's a 5-year old bike which has a LED display, a number of things could have gone wrong without showing any sign. However, you should do some systematic checks first, as I would do if I had your bike here. 1. measure the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Tim Pool does have a good career but his story is nothing particularly interesting. The facts about Biden and the government loan guarantee for Ukraine are well known. Biden was not acting alone and outside his remit. I don't attach any importance to his comments because he is known as a right...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    so a few thousand supporters turned up to meet him. Trump tells the same jokes, works the crowd as well as he did 4 years ago. The more noticeable fact is they are not as many as 4 years ago. Their number is dwindling. Did you watch the BBC 'The Trump Show' on BBC2? The impression I get from...

    Please Lads is there anyone who can help????

    that can happen. The Hall sensors tell the controller when and which 2 coils should be connected to bat+ and bat-. If one Hall or two are faulty, the coils won't be fired in the correct sequence. Test them anyway. If they are OK, members can rule them out.

    Please Lads is there anyone who can help????

    yes. You usually have yellow, green and blue for the Hall signals, red and black for the 5V supply and white is the speed or temperature sensor from the motor. With all ebikes, you have to collect information first before making the diagnosis.

    you need to check your Hall sensors first.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I forgot to add, latest polls from the swing states, Trump leads only in Texas and Iowa, Biden leads in Michigan, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Florida, Minnesota, Arizona, Maine, Nebraska, Georgia, Ohio. The Donald is pretty much cooked as the French would say.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    it's over for the Donald more like. This election is all about Trump, he's till hogging the TV and not receiving much approval for his effort. It's Trumpism and his false nationalism that people will give their verdict on. Did you watch the parallel TV interviews of Biden and Trump on Thursday...

    Motor Drag

    you can calculate the drag from the video above if you know the speed reading and the weight of the wheel minus the motor core. This is just a quick estimate so you get the idea of drag from a Bafang geared hub front motor SWX. rotating weight: m = 1.5kgs r = distance between the centre of...

    Motor Drag

    the OP compares the drag between no assist and assist 1-5. That suggests the source of the perceived binding is electrical.

    Motor Drag

    drag varies with the kit you have. On direct drive motors, drag is electrical (magnetic binding), on geared hub motors, mechanical through the internal clutch. On top of that, you have the effect of inertia of the heavy motor when your speed varies. Simplest way to figure out where it comes from...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    they'd say that for internal consumption. There are still practical details regarding lorries, insurance, bank accounts, data transfer and sharing, energy, radioactive materials, justice, visas and permits, EHIC etc to talk about and sort out for years to come. I feel sorry for around 1.5...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    These negotiations will continue for years, there is no reason why anyone will want to walk away. The UK side is to keep the fish. Maybe the compromise is to allow UK boat owners to sell their quotas to EU's fishermen after the transition period. After we agree on fish, the UK will have to...

    Way of charging externally without power point

    I don't know how many miles his commute is. Assuming a ball park figure of 20 miles a day, he only needs about 10AH-15AH from his car battery a day. Most car batteries can do that. However, I suggested he uses a 400-500WH storage battery, not his car battery. Something like this...

    Help! Scott Genius conversion to e bike

    his bike has an XTR 93mm bottom bracket, BBS01 won't fit.

    Way of charging externally without power point

    his battery has 320WH, I reckon he would use less than half of that every day. You only need about 30% more to cover conversion loss, a 400-500WH storage battery would be sufficient.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I suspect that until BJ agrees on level playing field, there is not much progress. BJ says he still wants an 'Australian deal' - his way of naming the no deal brexit and that allows him to leave the scene while claiming 'mission accomplished'. Australia negotiates an FTA with the EU since 2018...
