I keep the TSDZ2 with throttle in stock. In case your legs are tired, you can use the throttle to ride home without pedaling. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/cart/#/product/uid-206-tsdz2t/tsdz2-cd-kit-48v-15a-250w-with-throttle-kit

applicable to e-bikes assembled in China. parts are still unaffected, so the logical reaction is to buy parts and re-assemble here. However, what I can put in one container before now has to be packed separately in bulk (tyres, innertubes, wheelsets etc even rim tapes are packed separately) -...

ha ha.. they may have used them on their lightweight road bikes. I can't check, their website is down.

where have you been in the last few years? these are some of the 'on trend' e-bike components. In tube battery, this one is 36V 8AH but capacity is increasing fast: Drop this crankset into a modern bike and connect the battey above to the socket you see in the picture and the bike is...

the Chinese start to gunk up all around the BMS.

they can't just jack up the prices of bike components, they are made in lots of different countries. No. It's exclusively aimed at China. If we are outside the EU's customs union, there won't be any anti-dumping against Chinese e-bikes so the latter will be more popular than German bikes but...

If you take your £2k bike as an example, you'd get a lot more than 500WH if you spend £700 on a battery without the branding logo. Not so long ago, if you want a quality bike, you have to buy it factory made. Not anymore. You can easily get a high quality kits for less than one third of the...

I love crank drives! you get the natural weight distribution and power delivery. Email support@wooshbikes.co.uk about your project, we can discuss it much better. The 48V TSDZ2 is very capable on hills, especially if you fit a double chainring. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?cdkit#tsdz2 This thread...

I have never used these words, preferring a discussion on facts. This post on the Guardian is a better reply to your 'having balls' argument: With political discourse in this hallucinogenic phase, the gap between metaphor and reality is beginning to yawn. Among the latest examples is the idea...

yes, it's an argument in favour of the Canada+ model for brexit. there usually is a silver-lining somewhere to be found. I haven't found it yet and still looking but I am getting closer.

No, that has never been the case. There is a small price advantage buying from China but this is around 15% mark. If you want the same EU quality, the cost is about the same, give or take 3%-5%. The cost of the bike is as usual the sum of its components plus about £40 labour if you operate at...

yes, that's correct. I paid a reduced rate, 37% last July because the factory I bought the bikes from cooperated with the EU investigation. BTW, VAT is also charged on anti dumping levy.

all the Big Bear batteries have electronic on/off switch on the drive side of the battery case. If the lighting circuit is accidentally shorted, it may damage the electronic switch which is located on the BMS board. The new regulations on batteries make repairs more and more difficult. In the...

I wouldn't cal it ' - balls -'.

of course it would, hypothetically. However, the 86% levy is not supported by real facts. There was and still is no distortion of the market, the dumping that the EBMA accused Chinese manufacturers of rests on 'illegal support given by Chinese government to their manufacturers'. If this...

unfortunately, we don't have much of an indigenous e-bike manufacturing. Transition from importing, distributing and support to manufacturing requires a huge scaling up effort, well beyond the means of most trade members of this forum.

the Carrera Crossfire's controller is roughly 36V 16A. The Bosch CX 36V 18A.

there is often no need to go for the highest, as all motors are limited by law to 15.5mph. You want a trade off between power and weight to suit your requirements. I ussually recommend 36V 15AH for lightweight road bikes with 700C x 25C tyres, 36V 17AH for MTBs with 26" or 27.5" x 1.95" tyres...

the main benefit of placing the battery inside the luggage rack as opposed to behind the seat post is two folds: a) I can fit a standard cartridge type bottom bracket (the old Santana used to have cup and cone instead of cartridge bearings) and b) the controller is placed well out of reach of...

no, the 250W is the minimum that the e-bikes that say so on the label are capable of. The real maximum output is set by the controller, I have for example 36V 15A, 36V 17A, 36V 20A and 48V 17A to suit different riders' weight and how hilly where they live. A more powerful controller needs to be...
