    Which conversion kit?

    Front motor for very hilly terrain can be awkward esp if the surface is wet or loose, wheel spin is more prevent if you are light weight.

    Voodoo Bizango E shimano steps

    One is aware no matter what e bike is ridden that assisted power is present, with my hub bikes there is no delay to power kicking in.

    Help! C300 Handlebar Display

    Tell us the PAS colours ? If both connector sides have Red and Black wires then make sure Red connects to Red, Black to Black and the last wire on both sides is the signal so just connect. Same for the speed sensor connection, if you don't have a dedicated speed sensor to controller connector...

    Help! FreeGo battery life. Controller fault?

    If any good at soldering one could solder new wire lengths and connectors of for trouble free cut the connectors and solder the ends direct, slide a bit of heat shrink up the wire first before soldering the joint. As long as no shorting has occurred then controller should be good, the melting...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    The strip connector is ideal for connecting the test motor wire. As I mentioned get the normal extension motor cable that connects to both ends of the existing cabling and then you don't need another power source to test halls. For mosfets one simply probes the controller phases with no power...

    Voodoo Bizango E shimano steps

    Natural bike feel is the bit I always find amusing, how can it be with 500 - 600w of power or more under foot. Pro riders only average approx. 400w over a stage, your average bike rider will likely manage an average of 75 - 100w during a typical ride. Any bike with an e-drive is anything but...

    My new Big Bear Plus.

    What's the point of batteries having a usable capacity voltage range if you are not going to use it all at times ? You are safe to LVC, it may vary depending on the BMS but 3.1 - 3.2v is typical. If you have a voltage readout then one can stress the cells less once below 3.6v by using lower...

    For Sale Bafang 8FUN motor in front wheel

    75 - 100 notes sound pretty fair to me. Nice tourqey Baafang BPM 201 RPM, though it shows sigs of surface weathering. Tidy looking wide 24mm rim and spokes and tyre with good tread. Put it on the bay and you might get 125 - 150.

    Powerbikes Are Hiring!

    Pricing can be critical Benjamin, take my honey for instance. I have just upped the prices from £4.50 & £5.50 to £5.50 & £6.50 respectively and I am selling a lot more. The higher price distinguishes it from the cheaper inferior (adulterated) supermarket tripe and consumers once willing to...

    Battery set for the bin today.

    Disconnected from the bike and with a BMS switch. I have a routine of checking various batteries I have as I mentioned on an approx 4 weekly cycle, it's a shame though it only cost me the price of the cells £91, BMS £15 and some Ni. I have just added a 12s LG HG2 diy water bottle battery to my...

    Voodoo Bizango E shimano steps

    THE e7000 is a TS bike, it is dependant on the riders effort. As we often say to folks if one can't add good effort or have little strength then these bikes aren't going to cut the mustard for you. Wisper do both Cadence and TS with a throttle.

    Yosepower hub kits.

    As vfr has said the are ways to test with the motor cable , just a case of being a bit more inventive . If you want to be really clever use a double end motor/controller cable , cut it in half and then join all the wires to a block connector so they are colour to colour. Connect the moulded...

    Simple bike maintenance tip

    You can/should be able to retro fit most chain rings above 32t to a BBS, you need to buy a BBS spider adapter which then should be able to accept a larger ring

    By seized by police!

    I don't look at dates, so yes well and truly got me on that one. Probably the first time I have been had on fool's day. It still make you a bar steward though for riling us.

    Simple bike maintenance tip

    I use a bipod on my main bike and yes they are good for wheel truing, adjusting brakes and gears. Though nothing beats a bike stand and working at a nice height. I recently removed my one and cleansed it, raking out all the muck/grime accumulated in the folding mech. A good squirt with WD to...
