Thanks both. That fat tyre Brompton looks pretty cool! Probably quite heavy but it's certainly different. Thanks for the info Stuart. I'll see if I can get test rides on both to compare.

I might look at a used Brompton. I have seen them on the trains a few times and marvel at how small they fold up. The thing that puts me off a bit is the supposedly sketchy ride, although I admit I've never tried riding one. I live in the sticks and it's full of potholed lanes so I stick to...

Hi all, Thank you for your very helpful replies. Sorry to waste people's time, but I've decided to cancel the order on that bike for a couple of reasons - one being it didn't seem a very good donor for a conversion. I still would like a trifold bike to put in the car as I have 3 other full...

Yes, something like that would be ideal with a 20 inch front hub.

Yes either a clip on battery or a smallish Brompton clip on bag to house a small battery and controller with a detachable wire so it's easily removed. I'd prefer something lower down rather than the swytch-style handlebar mounted batteries. Something light but with a bit of grunt. I'm not...

Yes 406, long write up on them here: I could do with something similar to the Brompton kit where it clips on with a 20 inch wheel.

I think it's 74 mm: Opening front 74mm,rear 120mm Any recommendations on a suitable kit?

Thanks all for the recommendations. The clone I've ordered has 20 inch wheels, I think Brompton's (apart from G-line) are 16 inch wheels. So I'm looking for something similar to the set up for the Woosh bike but 20 inch wheel instead. Also been looking at aliexpress, pswpower, etc but not sure...

Hi all, I'm looking for a front hub kit for a 20 inch Brompton clone (Mint T9-20D). I don't have the bike yet as it's still shipping but wanted to get some ideas about possible kits. 20 inch wheels with mechanical disc brakes. Front hub kit ideally 250w road legal but don't mind a bit more...

Issue resolved. The STlink dongle needed a firmware update. Once updated it now connects ok and I've flashed the motor.

yes it shows 5v and Java is fully installed and working

I don’t have the bike here atm but I get the following output when the stlink is connected on Linux. The other Stlink I have outputs the same values but the serial number is just showing ‘Y’

I've tried both Linux and Windows 10 on 2 different PCs desktop and laptop. Java is working all ok. Assume it's a hardware issue or incompatibility with the motor.

Tbh I'm a bit reluctant to spend any more money on clones as 2 different ones from different sellers haven't worked. I could buy a genuine one e.g. from CPC farnell but there is no guarantee this will work either...

Update, tried with a much shortened cable (see attached pics) at 3.3 and 5v. No change. Any other suggestions before I give up? I've tried 2 STlink clones from different vendors and no joy.

I did try 3.3v instead of 5v and no difference. Been busy with work but will try the shortened cable this weekend. Does the OSF make much difference to the torque or top end speed (compared to stock firmware 48v 16a)?

I will try shortening the cable first. This is the second STlink dongle I've tried from Amazon (using different sellers) so it is more likely to be the length of the cable.

Yes software all installed correctly. It just refuses to connect

Hi all, Many thanks for all of the advice. The cable would not work with my old 36v motor or the new 48v motor. The entire cable is 13cm long from end to end. I have tried with windows 10 and 11 installed on a fairly modern laptop and a separate desktop PC. Also tried Linux and no joy with...

I have recently purchased a Tongsheng TSDZ2 48v 750w kit from PSWpower to replace my previous TSDZ2 36v 250w motor (also purchased from PSWpower). I have a VLCD5 and wanted to use the open source firmware on the unit (the embrusa firmware for the VLCD5 screen). I bought an ST link adaptor from...
