    Brexit, for once some facts.

    the DUP will likely vote with the government. They are the conservatives in NI. their reasoning is the EU will be bankrupt without our money, give in to our demand and give us a trade deal exactly like we asked so there won't be any need for a hard border.

    Long time lurker - couple of pre purchase questions

    that's a cassette, similar if not same on your Marasa bike. The kit you looked at cannot be used with cassettes. The kit you need is something like the XF08C kit with 700C rim. http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?hubkits#xf08ckit You can re-use the cassette you already have on your Marasa or fit a new...

    Xiongda YTW-06 has arrived

    it was 3 (may be 4?) years ago when we fitted the front Xiongda XD to my Specialized. I had the PAS on the left side for a while before it started to misbehave. I then removed the smallest chain ring and fit the magnet disc there where it still is. Xiongda sent me another wheel about 6 months...

    What happened to the 2 speed hub?

    you have to go to very low speed to see any difference in favour of the XD. From around 8mph, the SWX02 and BPM will leave the XD eating dust.

    Xiongda YTW-06 has arrived

    and I have removed a couple of them installed on the left side of hollowtech (I also have a Hollowtech BB on my Specialized test bike, so I tried) because a) even after removing the spacer, there is still not enough clearance to install a 9 magnet or 12 magnet disc and b) it is difficult to fit...

    What happened to the 2 speed hub?

    as d8veh has made the point, Xiongda have fixed the problems reported on their XD motor but I don't think the design is 100%. The average cost of dealing with an incident is not far off £100, and likely to be even higher if it involves the motor. On the other hand, you can get the performance...

    we argue about nothing. I have fixed a few pedal sensors myself and so do you. If anyone find a good way to fit successfully PAS to hollowtech BB please post your pictures.

    Advice on a geared hub motor kit plse

    The LCD is by King Meter (a Bafang company) model KM529 it's very readable with the backlight on (press and hold the + key for 2 seconds). Manual for the KM529: http://wooshbikes.co.uk/manuals/KM-529-LCD-Display.pdf you are correct. The top speed of your old kit is higher but the torque of...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I was shocked watching Liam Fox interviewed by Andrew Marr this morning about this. Mr Fox tried to defend the indefensible tweet that Ben Bradley apologized for. A weasel, I thought.

    mud connects the right side of the disc to the external bearing. Overtime, you don't need much mud to make the disc stop turning.

    Demo an e-bike anywhere in the country!

    that's real commercial muscle.

    Xiongda YTW-06 has arrived

    in my experience, fitting the regular magnet disc to the left side is quick and easy but over time, mud gets in between the crank and bearing, causing the disc to slip, you'll lose pedal assist when this happens. I would use a 45mm hole saw to hollow out one of those 12 magnet discs than come in...
