    Power has been cutting out for a few seconds when going up hill

    Touch the controller. You will understand why it is cutting out ;) Don't grab it, you will have a controller tattoo on the palm of your hand... :eek:

    Bafang cables - why so long!

    Correct, that is the amount of wire they are delivered with. Best to get wired single plugs and splice or even cheaper splice the standard wires. There are panel mount plugs which are ideal for mounting on controller boxes, I think I will do PAS, brake and speed sensors mounted like that...

    Regarding Eu-regulatives, ordering manufacturers of ebikes to make it more difficult to tune

    Just thinking about the photo above it show how infrastructure destroys the aerodynamics on vélomobiles. They all have uplifted noses to be able to go over speed bumps, racing vélomobiles have very little ground clearance. The German lady who recently broke the woman's world 24 hour record had...

    Donald Trump's Behaviour

    I'm bald. The difference between me and Trump is that I am not insecure about my physical appearance, I also have a very pale complexion and look, no orange make up either! I don't eat junk food so I don't have a big flabby gut. Another difference is that I have never had to pay a woman for...

    Trailers

    Definitely single wheel if you want to go fast. I like the one that carries a panier rack so you would be able to take 4 X full sized paniers. 20" wheel is a minimum, my twin wheel 16" trailer is OK for slow speeds and short shopping trips. And hydraulic brakes are a must to be able to stop the...

    Decisions, decisions.... Carrera v Cube

    IMHO the Cube is a better looking bike. I have seen one up close and they look very well made. If I was on the market for a bike the trapeze frame (low step over) Cubes would be on my short list.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Was there anything interesting on page 1750? Unreadable for me... I wasn't very good in math but "90% would vote the same" means 10% wouldn't. And a 10% shift in opinion on a vote that was carried by a 2% majority is huge. Whatever way that shift of opinion goes.

    Speedict Bluetooth BMS

    Did you win the lottery? You can send me one for Christmas if you like, it's too late for my birthday! :D Seriously I would have 4 or 5 but can't justify/afford the cost of even one at the moment. Maybe when my rich uncle from NZ passes... :eek:

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Regarding Eu-regulatives, ordering manufacturers of ebikes to make it more difficult to tune

    This has always been in EN 15194 but the manufacturers had not implemented it seriously. Now that dongles are easily available I guess they have had to step up the protection to stay in conformity with EN 15194. If they aren't conform to the directive they can't legally sell motors...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Not yet. I'm moving so it will take a little more time. The good news is that where I'm moving to has space for working on bikes :)

    Woman fighting for life after 'e-bike' hit-and-run in east London

    You can clearly see she ran into his front wheel taking him out. Of he was thinking about work or slightly distracted he didn't have a hope of braking or missing her.

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Finger burning hot. That is how hot my controller got in a bag and it wasn't even cutting out, now it is in an air tight box so i can't touch it. Probably just as well...:D

    Project: Carrera Kraken conversion with BBSHD

    18v on the power supply, 30 Amp job so enough juice to keep both happy at 13.5 Amps each counting losses. I am going to make a 3P10S battery with BMS for a custom battery box on Number Two and will use my 2 Amp charger for that. For the trike I am going to make a couple of 5P6S bricks without...

    Woman fighting for life after 'e-bike' hit-and-run in east London

    A guy just did the exact same thing to me minutes ago - running out and crossing where he shouldn't have been. He saw me coming and correctly estimated my speed and stopped running dead in his tracks to avoid me. I was doing about 27 km/h and well leaned over coming out of a roundabout. Night...
