    Saddle Advice and help identifying pain

    It might be posture/rider position set up, it is very hard to get right but does involve small 5 or 10mm adjustments to reach, saddle position and even leg stroke length. Saddle wise one could try the ones with a central cut out for ones bits, combined with the NCX.

    Battery set for the bin today.

    Onwards and upwards, now to think about reinstating my empty Oxydrive battery cases to 12s/44v. I have decided that 12s will be my new default voltage for builds.

    Battery set for the bin today.

    Unless one is an electronics wizard there is no way of knowing what failed but the obvious point of failure is the BMS for what ever reason, however something drained each cell group and not just the odd one. Total battery voltage was 5.65v. Each cell group had some variation and most cell in...

    Battery set for the bin today.

    My battery being deconstructed. Top and bottom fibre glass sheet protector. My nice/neat spot welding before being torn apart. Hard to remove spot welded nickel, the Maletric spot welder does a very good job of welding and is also capable of welding a Ni/Cu interconnector sandwich.

    Fake ebike battery cells.

    Currently on the grape vine there are up to 50k fake 18650 cells on the way to the UK. Efest and their sister company Imren are currently faking Sam 25R & 30Q clones, the cells appear to look just like them with the same colour wrap but the devil is in the detail. Below are the pics of the fake...

    Fake ebike battery cells.

    After I posted about finding my 974wh PF celled battery had failed yesterday, I went on to mention other cells and about fake cells due to the very low current supply of quality branded cells.

    Carrera Crossfire E with broken anti rotation washer

    Last item I received recently from Ali I had to pay £1.99 as RM stated postage wasn't enough. The items cost was £1.28 with couple quid postage, I think RM and the likes are just holding us to ransom now as it's money for old rope.
