The Decathlon bikes are overpriced for what you get. I got a friend to buy one because the sale price was 699€ instead of 999€ and at that price I thought it was an honest price for a brand new bike of that quality.

I have a similar business plan in my drawer but it is for building pedelecs i.e. motor is 250 W nominative limited to 25 kph and all the electric bits are to EN 15194, ROHS etc.

I bought one yesterday. I need a 17 A controller and it was the tried and true option. I will tune it down from 20 A to 17 in the LCD. I will have a go at waterproofing the LCD because it has started raining finally and I don't like being stuck at home. I will have two throttles that I don't...

Note that full speed throttles are not allowed on s-pedelecs it would seem to follow that full speed throttles should not be allowed on pedelecs. So the whole thing will swing around "take off" assist throttles which will probably be limited to 6 kph on pedelecs. Throttles that allow walk...

I think the journalist either got carried away or was referring to the out of date document we have talked about here.

I don't think so - the article is about s-pedelecs. Throttle gives power up to 20 kph then PAS provides power up to 45 kph.

What about the 175Q75 / 6NE7781? Also on my list. 6.5 to 75V and s-pedelec approved, just in case you decide to upgrade to a 48V battery one day. 65€

Except if the top bar is too short and your knees almost touch the handlebars... My seat post and bars are at the maximum and I still feel "perched" on a tiny little thing. Very uncomfortable downhill also with no way of laying down out of the wind, the handlebars would have to be above the...

All those parameters are set in "hidden" P and C parameters which are detailed (in Chinglish) in the pdf file you can find on-line. Google for KT-LCD3.pdf

We have different values, for me anything below +10°C is freaking cold... :rolleyes:

Yes it is the 42V lamp so it will work with any 36V battery. Does your controller have light power out socket? If not you just connect to the battery and use the on/off switch on the light. I am going to buy the same one for my next build. I have the IXON IQ battery powered light and at 40 lux...

Found the list for Germany: Rear view mirror self-collapsing kickstand license plate minimum tyre profile of 1mm Tyres with "ECE" license two independent brakes brake levers with spherical heads Extra lateral reflectors fixed pedal reflectors fixed lighting system

I would have thought that 10 extra kg wouldn't affect the performance of higher end suspension forks? Well at least with lighter riders. I can feel a difference with a 3.5 kg weight in the center of my rear wheel in my steel frame. But surely a central motor bike does not have the same impact...

2016 begins with an order to bmsbattery for the new controller. I am getting the 20 A controller for the 09 bottle battery. I will set the max Amps to 17 from the LCD. The max speed setting will stay at 25 kph I just need a little more ooompf in certain conditions. I also hope that this...

Oh yes sorry, forgot the brake levers which have to have the ball ends for protecting pedestrians.

Lights: brake light now required and number plate light (required or soon to be). Front light must be approved type. Supernova have a hi-beam/lo-beam dipping light version for OEMs. Rear view mirror: approved moped type (b+m has one on catalogue) Tyres: approved type France only (?): moped...

Sounds like the problem is with the controller, a bad connection or a broken wire.

First thought is the wheel set to the right size in the LCD? MPH instead of KPH?

From the site: "TYPE APPROVAL CLASSIFICATION L1e light moped. To use this bicycle on a public road the user must first register it, fit a registration plate and then tax and insure it. Registration plate holder can be removed in those territories where these restrictions do not apply." In...
