    Help! Help request: There is no power to motor

    First thing is to physically measure the battery voltage with a meter to get an accurate reading. If the handle bar display shuts off then it is due to power disruption between it and the battery.

    Furious cycling is for legal pushbikes or pedelecs , he was riding a light moped unlicensed/unregistered so comes under motoring offence jurisdiction and not pushbike law.

    Help! Disposal or sale for spares/repairs?

    Maybe the shop are trying to wash their hands of the bike and the warranty even extended by one year for post 2017 drives, they are liable to deal with said bike as the original dealer/vendor.

    Help! Major problem ....motor cable

    You don't need to be great for testing using a meter, just able to unscrew items and attach the meter's probes where asked. Most of the testing doesn't need any battery connected to carry out testing. Did you try the wheel test with the hub cable connector disconnected ?

    New controller - help please clever people!

    Simply 3 connects to 5 but how it operates I'm not sure but maybe via the display. All appears over complicated and unnecessary. The controller appears to be a speed controller for a scooter and is illegal for a ebike/pedelecs as it has no PAS option and only throttle speed control via the 3...

    Help! Major problem ....motor cable

    You have likely shorted or damaged other wires as well, the three thick ones are phase wires and the thin ones are motor hall wires. Make sure the motor connection has been tugged apart at all, a wire repair might still work but you will not know if any of the other wires have been damaged as...

    The Law

    Pedelec market will virtually be killed off if they brought in tougher regulation for them, esp if some sort of licensing involved, same with helmets Boardmans ideas are flawed. I think is was on cycle uk forum where I saw a thread regarding more scientific research carried out and it appeared...

    Dalston fatal e-bike crash rider 'going too fast' - Court Case

    I expect during the course of the case, the prosecution would likely raise the question of when or if he saw her and then move on to why he made no attempt to slow down. All vehicles including bicycles are meant to drive with awareness of other vulnerable road users and that includes...

    The Independent report is easy someone like the Bearingman an expert with regards to back engineering mid drives would be ideal.

    Help! Disposal or sale for spares/repairs?

    I think it will be a big ask to get a replacement bike with different drive supplied which is now at a greater cost then the original purchase, unless of course Kalkhoff them selves intervene and supply one. The original dealer I feel will only refund the purchase price if they have to at all.

    Help! battery needs repair

    No not all chargers have adjustable pots inside , my Sans chargers and another similar one has the pot but a couple of others I have don't. My Meanwell HLG has external pots for current and voltage adjustment, and are very good.

    I need some advice about replacing an Impulse 2 mid-motor

    Even a free repair by way of an exchange drive has got to be better, a working bike vs a non working bike. Then it buys you more time to try and get a settlement whilst still being mobile.

    Help! Disposal or sale for spares/repairs?

    Breaking the bike up to sell parts or the bike complete should be a last resort once the route for any redress has been exhausted.

    No you are right, the gun assistance is the speed of sound or over 767mph.

    Comparing the two is ridiculous. Villians who use guns will never swap them for ebikes

    Dalston fatal e-bike crash rider 'going too fast' - Court Case

    We will have to wait and see what else develops in the case, if he is belligerent and remorseless of his actions then he may likely go down. He has already racked up a few offences besides just the speed issue. Don't forget the fixie biker of 2018 who went down, he was on his illegal push bike...
