That bike looks very good value. The battery is a bit small, which might mean not too much power . The motor is standard Chinese. I can't see any type of control panel nor any wires going to one, which begs questions about how you adjust power. Also, the crank seems to be a bit special. I can't...

Remember that large companies are motivated by profit. They use marketing as a tool to convince people that their max-profit solution is the one that they need. It's competition that keeps them on their toes and forces them to make improvements. They will never change more than they have to...

When you buy a bike from an established brand, like Juicy, Wisper, Oxygen or Woosh, you can be sure that the batteries were chosen carefully for them. It's only when new brands come on the market that you need to ask questions, or when you want to buy a bike from Ebay or similar. That's not to...

The difference between the Active line and the CX is the small drive sprocket on the CX, which involves an extra concentric axle and reduction gear. On the new version CX, they've changed to a normal size drive sprocket, so they don't need that concentric shaft anymore. If you take the chain...

All power must cease at 25 km/h. When checking it, there's a 10% tolerance to allow for measurement errors, but that doesn't mean it's allowed. It's just to take away any argument about the accuracy of the measuring device. So, according to the regulations, it would be difficult to make a case...

Count the pins on your LCD connector at the controller end. What do your brakes plug into? Are there three connectors at the handlebars - 2 for the brakes and one for the LCD?

I wouldn't get too hung up on that. You can guarantee that Oxygen use decent batteries in their bikes. They're a long-established company with a good reputation to uphold. They wouldn't do anything to spoil that.

Has anyone tried one of these? I ordered one out of curiosity. I found out about it from an online advert that included a video that showed it working. https://baduct.com/collections/hot-sales/products/the-inbuilt-saddle-suspension

You can buy replacement controllers that fit in the battery and have the same waterproof connectors. Count the number of pins on the LCD cable where it connects to the controller. Maybe all you need is the 1 into 4 cable.

If you get a sudden and noticeable cut-off at say 15 or 16 mph, it means that you get good power at 15 mph. If you can't feel it, it's because power is being ramped down from a lower speed. I think I'd rather have the maximum power all the way to the cut-off.

I can't say that I've ever ridden an ebike that's like riding through mud with the power off, and I've ridden a lot of ebikes, including ones that people complained about having this problem. If you really go for it, you can just about detect something with the Bosch CX. When people claim they...

It looks like the side unscrews using those three dimples near the edge like the side-plate of a hub-motor.

That's the bit that makes me suspicious!

You can't plug a throttle into the PAS connector, nor anywhere else unless you have the one into four cable. Is yours a one into three? You have to get a new controller, 1 into 4 acble, LCD and PAS from Aliexpress.

The connector is inside the frame where the wire goes in. When you remove that panel, everything will pull out where you can see it.

I'm still waiting for the Bosch hub-motor. I guess that there's not so much profit in them, which is why we don't see them yet.

The LCD works independently from everything else. All it needs to switch on is battery voltage. That means that your one must not have battery voltage. The first thing to check is that the voltage is coming out of the battery. Fold your bike so that you can access the terminals, like in the...

Banners are the adverts at the top and sides of the area where the posts are. An Edge banner was one advertising edge bikes.

It depends how much you prioritise speed and weight. There won't be a big difference.

It's called the VPAC control system. It was used on several bikes, including A2B Fast 4WD and Emoto, but they've all ceased trading. If it were my bike, I'd replace it with a standard Chinese controller and cadence pedal sensor, which would probably be cheaper anyway. Whatever is wrong with it...
