    Hi, Is there a derailleur hanger that would facilitate fitting a derailleur gear changer to a frame that is designed to effect chain adjustment by sliding the wheel backwards in a horizontal slot? - You know the one with the little adjuster on the end. (Hope I've described that well enough - I...

    Ezee Liv motor anyone?

    I maintain a few electric bikes, one being my wife's Ezee Liv. I'm fairly sure the brushes need replacing. I had the wheel out and hub stripped as far as I could whilst away on holiday. I couldn't get to see where or how the brushes fit with the amount of strip down I was able to achieve...

    Soldering Iron

    My trusty soldering iron has packed up. I have had it for nearly 40 years and despite being rated at only 30w has done most things I've asked from it and done them well. I bought a 50w iron a couple of years ago as a standby but it is useless. It has a steel tip rather than copper and has...

    Front light

    I'll start by apologising for raising an old chestnut once again but I just can't find the old threads - even though some are very recent. Anyway I need a considerably better front light than the 36v ex eZee led light that I currently rely on. It's good for being seen but not for seeing with...

    eZee Liv - 48v conversion and initial problems

    As promised I've added a couple of pictures of my 48v conversion on an eZee Liv. It's the earlier model with Brushed motor. It came to me from a friend who was scrapping it.

    Hydraulic disc brakes

    I've never owned a bike with hydraulic disc brakes and have a couple of questions of those of you who do. Are cheap hydraulic brakes better than good cable discs or even good rim brakes? Is it usually possible to unbolt your cable operated calliper and bolt on your hydraulic calliper onto...

    Moving threads

    I see that my Saracen thread has been moved, presumably because it is technically an off road bike. That's fair enough but can I ask why my thread has moved and others haven't when they are also discussing bikes of over 250w? I see moving to this other obscure forum section as basically...

    Controller colour decoding - anyone?

    I've acquired an Ezee Liv (nearly all my bikes are Ezees!). It came with no battery or charger. I have a 48v 10A battery / charger coming from BMS. I have bought a generic, 48v dc controller from EBay to run the new set up. What does anyone think each of the plugs do? (looking for...

    Which BMS controller

    I'm looking to change the controller on one of my bikes. On one of my bikes I'm currently running a 36v sensorless controller from ecrazyman that pulls 17a maximum. The motor is an oldish Bafang that is in good order. That set up has been fine for the last 3 years. For the last 500 miles...

    Am on holiday in germany with a friend with an Ezee Liv. It got wet and has been problematic since. The controller etc is now dry - its 30c plus every day. The diagnosis light is flashing 3 times indicating a brake cut off fault. The brake levers seem ok, so what i'd like to know is, how can...

    Hi, I have and use in my RC Hobby large lipo batteries - 6 cell, 5000mah Turnigys to be precise. I have built up a 12S2p pack to run my bike on them and all works fine. I'm currently stripping the battery pack down and balance charging each cell on my Lipo charger as and when a recharge is...
