    Most of the issue are pretty easy to sort out if you have some basic tools. Not many LBS will be bothered to take any time to try and find out what is wrong, in fact I doubt many LBS will remotely be interested or even have the knowledge to repair the electrics. 1. Electrics; bike taking off...

    Legality of Battery voltage.

    Ok thanks flecc & vfr, yes no maximum voltage is stated and as you say it would indicate that 48v battery (nominal voltage) is encompassed within the 48vdc limits.

    Pendleton electric bike shimano Acera gear shifter

    Shimano m360 derailleur, the m360 is a group set range and part of the same set as the m360 shifter. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Shimano-RD-M360-Acera-7-8-speed-mech-rear-derailleur-SGS-black/293595146911?epid=1005274166&hash=item445ba26a9f:g:3b4AAOSwUDla8vhM...

    Pendleton electric bike shimano Acera gear shifter

    The shifter model number matters not any Shimano 8spd will work and do the job. Again you can use any Shimano 8 spd derailleur as long as it can handle the teeth rating of your cassette.

    It's probably the indiego link I posted earlier this morning, the motor is wired but the other components are BT.

    Legality of Battery voltage.

    The reason I why I have looked in to this and raised the question of ambiguity is that a Spanish e skate board producer is now entering the ebike world with a start up fundraising effort by selling ebikes and kits using BT tech, so all will be wireless connections barring the hub motor. The...

    Help! Pulsating motor Babboe Pro Trike E

    Typical of PAS sensor, check the magnet disc is firm and doesn't rotate on the BB axle by hand. Bend the bracket so that the sensor almost touches the disc. Check the motor cable connector (usually a Julet one) along the rear stay, make sure both parts are full engaged up to the raised stop...

    Help! KTM E8 error

    If a hall error then likely it is a failed motor hall, did the e street l use a CANbus system ? If so if sealed connectors were used not sure if you can tap in to the wiring for checking hall voltages.

    This is twice you have wrongly peddled this fake news. The initial press coverage was sensational but the follow up wasn't, it almost went totally under the radar. He did get advice and countersued both were found 50% liable so, the ladies prosecution/legal fees were I believe about 100k and...

    Battery question - Pendleton Somerby

    Going below 70% when in use isn't an issue as they can be used down to 0% which is approx. 32v for a 36v battery, I stop the discharge in use at about 20/25% or about 34v so as not to deep discharge the battery to much. Think about the distance you are riding and use the last 20/25% as a get...

    Why so few hub geared bikes with belts ? Looking at Kalkhoff

    The specs on the Safari are hard to find on another bike and you won't find one for £695. The bike uses a long seat tube and handle bar adjustment , so will fit a rider 4'-10" to 6' - 2". Bafang hub motor (front). Shimano 8 sp Nexus hub gears with chain guard. Wide tyres 2.125" Mudguards...

    The tale of a £100 second hand electric bike.

    Although digressing from your main thread title and it is your thread I will add more. My old deal had no exit fees so decided to act (so as to reduce any out lay) having just reduced my hours and working days , next will be the internet provider. My new duel fuel has the £30 exit fee for each...

    Battery question - Pendleton Somerby

    Always if possible charge to 100% before a ride, if not using the bike for a while, a week or longer then only charge to 70%. 70% is a good voltage for a storage/not in use charge but remember to fully charge before use again. Self managing the battery will aid it for a more useful longer life...

    Tyre Help (very basic stuff, sorry)

    Presta can be used with a Schrader valve hole as the Presta comes with a stepped adapter to suit the hole.

    Theorectically yes, but you won't …... The Dalston guy failed all these when the women ran out and died when he hit her, he wasn't prosecuted for any of the above misdemeanour's.
