    Peoples thoughts on my (planned) first build?

    Use a 36v 250,350 or 500w geared hub with your battery choice and a 36/48v dual voltage controller it will be better then the D/D hub. If you have a freewheel gears instead of a cassette you could always get a 800w geared hub. Usually for the good stuff you have to get direct from China sellers...

    Another newbie needs advice!!!

    P1 setting needs changing. To set the correct value motor reduction gear ratio x hub magnets (Q128 = 16). I expect you have a default setting of 87. I haven't seen a definitive listing of the reduction gear ratios, listed I have seen quotes of 9.6, 12.6, 13.2 & 14.2. For Q128c try any of these...

    Newbie needs help please

    Can't see what the seller is doing with that extra 7 core. Obviously the battery connects to the controller so do you know if power is actually going in and coming out ? If the 7 core is wired to the pcb you would at least expect to see a voltage reading on the red and black. What you need to do...

    Speed limit unlock for Carrera crosscity

    As Woosh has said that is the pas/cadence sensor so does nothing to change the speed. Have a look at the bikes electronic controllers exterior wiring to see if there is anything there, some controllers have a restriction wire connection or sometimes a small potentiometer adjuster.

    A nice general pic of the complete bike from both sides might be better, esp one with the hub motor cable and its route. The 2nd to last pic shows to me what looks like the botched three phase wires and five hall sensors, looking at this diy repair makes me think the previous owner has added the...

    Speed limit unlock for Carrera crosscity

    Yes I know that !!! What I meant was led or lcd handle bar control. If lcd then possible to unlock the speed other wise you need to have a look for the controller box, there may be a speed link wire or a potentiometer adjustment.

    Ebike display help?

    For help you nee to let folks know your bike brand/model and also the controller maker. The controller and lcd are programmed to communicate with each other so the lcd needs to be of the same brand/make.

    I can't cypher much at all from the pics. Where does the other end of that multicore cable go to ? I count 7 wires and not 6 !! The pics are to close up and don't show any of the cable runs. One thing you need to confirm is a voltage reading out of the controller box which appears to be the...

    Phishing Scams.. Share your best ones..

    Gubs you have a wicked sense of humour, playing them at their own game and wrapping them a round your little finger. But it does show how unscrupulous these cold calls are and the employees/callers are only interested in any type of a sell to gain commission. Recently a company has been laying...
