    Ali Express, thoughts.

    I’ve used Aliexpress a lot and never had to pay any duties or additional fees ..currently deliveries are slow due to covid / Brexit but stuff arrives .. I’ve just received my 13.5ah bottle battery that ordered on 8/1 so if you are in a hurry it’s not the place to buy ..

    can anyone help? Yesterday I forced my bike into the back of the car and in doing so it ripped all the wiring from around the headstock..sadly it's where the 2 sets of wiring are all different colours and I'm now stuck as to how to reconnect it ( there even seems to be a spare blue sure with no...

    Oxydrive ride recorded on Strava.

    I record my rides on Strava...as they are Ebike rides you don't get any sectors or PRs ( or maybe I need to do something else for it to record them?) I do it as it encourages me to try that bit harder and also I can see how regularly I am getting out...

    Adding thumb throttle...problem

    Thanks...I haven't as i thought it would defeat the object of fitting it, but if it offers more control than the PAS then I suppose it's worth a go......I will try it and report back...

    Eco Expedition E Bike?

    I have a friend who commutes about 10 miles each way on his and he loves it...he has one biggish hill to contend with otherwise it's pretty flat...he found it a little under geared and changed the rear for a smaller top gear and was still thinking of adding a larger crank gear....I have a...

    Hopper SE - Bargain?

    Yes it all connected fine, the throttle was checked and found to be working ok ( although I have ordered another one so may try that when it arrives) ..my brother found a dry joint which he soldered but there is still a fault on the sensor wire...I suppose eventually I will have to get another...

    Hopper SE - Bargain?

    I tried to add a throttle but it wouldn't work...appears to be either a fault in the controller ( several dry joints), or it has somehow been programmed to disable separate throttle?? Had to give in and reassemble for now...still works fine on pedelec but a thumb throttle would have been a nice...

    Adding thumb throttle...problem

    Well, it didn't work...the joint was definitely dry and there is now connectivity, but there is still no response when you use the throttle...( moving it varies the voltage from approx 1v to 4v ...) just put it all back together to await inspiration ....

    Adding thumb throttle...problem

    Quick update...my brother popped round...we have tested the throttle and it works fine..eventually I think we have traced the fault....the sensor wire from the controller isn't properly soldered to the PCB... Brother coming back later to resolder it...will report back if it works or not.....

    any one been pulled over by uk police

    I have many police friends still serving, and some have been very interested in my Ebike , but not one of them had the first idea about the legal requirements other than that you need to be over 14.... I doubt any of them would bother to stop an Ebike , although as GeeBee suggests, if you are...
