    48v drinks bottle battery.

    BMS hasn't arrived yet, the plan is it will fit between tier 1 & 2. Hopefully the 25a one I found on Aliexpress had the correct measurements that should enable it to fit. Not purchased cells yet but probably will go with 30Q's. The main build of cell pack and fitting is for next year late...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    If you are really careful with your probes you could test via an open controller on the appropriate hall connections, tracing the 5 thin wires will be easy to there pcb connection. You won't get hurt but if not careful you could short the controller.

    Hub stamped with WKS-1 inside. Anyone know what it is?

    You shouldn't have any issue I don't believe with any hub working with your controller, however if it comes to it finding a controller will be easy. Usually with controller the only issue is matching to a compatible lcd display of the same make if using one.

    Cheap early bird prices on this new E-Bike

    If the bike is legit and a $699 it is a very basic bike. If you read on Tektro HDB's are extra cost as is front suspension etc,etc. And btw I think it looks like sh**e.

    Bosch battery recharge cycles

    It's by design and not fault, just like their batteries and all else Bosch a closed locked in market. No third party or after market mods to tamper so you are reliant on dealers.

    Dreaded crossfire cutout.

    Get rid, take it back for a refund. They know they are not fit for purpose but still continue to flog a dead horse. Get a better quality bike like a Wisper torque.

    Yosepower hub kits.

    Follow the pdf guide below, a simple test that is fail or not. http://www.ebikes.ca/documents/HallSensorTestingFinal.pdf You may need another pair of hands to rotate the wheel whilst you keep an eye on the multi meter though no reason why you cant do it all single handed.

    Yosepower hub kits.

    The 250w Yose is about 30nm so not a powerful hub but should be adequate. I would test the halls to see if they are ok, any internal motor frying you would have smelt on opening or seen burnt windings. In case of a wire fault you could try a continuity check of the disconnected motor wire to...

    Torque and gears and design limits. How to calculate ?

    I read somewhere that they generally are over engineered and watt wise they can handle 1500w which none of us can do even standing on the pedals. As already mentioned K it is torque that kills them via wrong gearing. 2:1 ratio or more is recommended so for a 42t front use a max 21t sprocket. I...

    A rare piece of history - Swizzbee

    Now happier that the hub mechanical gremlins have been overcome, I went for a 38 mile return ride in to the Surrey hills. I had bought some DT Swiss pawls as spares for replacement as they exactly matched the profile barring they were a bout 1 -2 mm wider so rode to my brothers place of work...

    PAS sensor disc

    Generally yes to both. Some controllers have programming that count magnets so pas may be intermittent, try it and see. If fitting to lhs some sensors/discs are directional so before fitting pass the disc by the sensor to ensure pas works on forward crank motion, if not try orientating the...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    3 pin sensors Hall don't work with 2 pin connectors, but the opposite works. You can wire a 2 pin sensor to a 3 pin connector by just using the gnd/v- & signal. Yellow julets are for 3 pin Hall sensors and need all three wires to be connected, Halls they don't work any other way. Red julets...

    Yosepower hub kits.

    You could use the yellow julet though you need to omit the 5v+ pin /wire and check sequence is correct for the two remaining pins o_O !!!!! Ignore the above to early in the morning for me :rolleyes:. I use the dual voltage KT's with three wire connection , which can utilise a two wire sensor...

    Anyone with an interest is welcome no matter what nation. We have quite few overseas contributors. Two other well known forums are the huge US Endlesssphere and similar to this one the excellent pedelecsforum.de best used with Google translate unless of course you are fluent with the language.
