    Very weird motor issue. (Only "kicks in" when the wheel is moved backwards)

    If the controller has the separate 6 block hall connector and you have multi meter you can check if the motor halls are damaged without opening the hub, all it takes is 10 - 15mins of your time, the use of a multi meter and maybe a second pair of hands to slowly turn the wheel.

    What's happening at 50 Cycles?

    I call it despicable as the buyer will never receive the goods, a shameful way to carry on and no doubt in any future re-incarnation's the forum will highlight any short comings.

    Fitting Lights To Bike ??

    On my commute/town bike I have fitted 36v lights front and rear fortunately my KT controller has light output so wiring up is simpler. Even without light output you can splice in to the feed wires between battery and controller and fit an line fuse if required. This lamp has it own switch on...

    A rare piece of history - Swizzbee

    I replaced the Watt meter with ext shunt as I simply couldn't get it to work (likely me not installing it correctly) but no matter what I tried zilch, nothing, zero in any info read out. So I now have a nice smaller watt/ammeter installed in a small project box on the head set, current...

    Fuse Keeps Blowing...

    Well worth considering a Silverfish lithium celled battery, they will come with a new fitting docking kit and a charger, the advantage over SLA is they will give better range and usable power. Plenty on ebay to choose from as well for about 10ah to 15ah. Just check the measurements to make sure...

    Introducing the new Woosh Rambla

    Most bikes with a std 9mm drop out can be converted to a hub gear bike, chain tension can be taken up with a Nexus/Alfine tensioner. I did this to my mtb.

    I would suspect cross polarity may be the issue, double & triple check this.

    For Sale Kalkhoff Sahel Compact Electric bike, ultra long range battery, showroom condition.

    I expect there are but also many disappointed especially some of the posters on here previously, one poster has had 3 motors not a great advertisement for low mileage.

    Commuting with a badass dongle..??

    If you are getting 70% capacity use then no reason to worry about DOD, just charge it up fully a few hours before you need it again. Just don't leave it at 100% for any length of time not in hours but days and weeks on end.

    Go to work on a Pineapple! Wisper Folder sneak preview.

    Interesting my math says you are utilising 12s David given that 12 x 3.6 is 43.2v nominal and balance/top charge is 4.16v per cell group.

    Introducing the new Woosh Rambla

    The motor is Bafang so it they who have chosen to diversify with TS option to compete with the other mid drive competition, they already cover the cadence drives with the BBS range.

    KM529-LCD zero start.

    The controller will either be incorporated in the battery or in the down tube I suspect, follow the hub motor cable and it will feed in to it.

    Looking for a mini 36v controller

    Nothing wrong with the TBK site and dealing with them they appear to be very good, recently a member had an issue with his AKM128c hub and TBK got him spares for it which no one else offers.
