    Any routine preventative maintenance for the XF07 front hub motor

    That's no problem, the motor cable is a good length & I've installed it with a good drip loop. What about lubrication of hub bearings etc?

    Any routine preventative maintenance for the XF07 front hub motor

    As title really. My XF07 front hub has reached about 650 miles now, still less than 6 months old & upto now almost faultless. I say almost, as a couple of months ago I noticed what sounded like a 'plasticky' cheep cheeping kind of sound coming from the front hub after a few minutes of use (only...

    Speed sensor & King Meter KM-529 LCD for XF07 36V front hub kit

    Just as a follow up, after completing just over 600 miles on the above mentioned configuration (24 inch wheel size entered for 700C tandem) I again noticed a pretty large discrepancy between actual speed & that displayed on the KM529. I therefore entered a wheel size of 700C to the menu &, lo...

    What connects to this cable

    OK thanks for that, thought maybe I could plug a light in there or something equally useful but probably best not to then!

    Speed sensor & King Meter KM-529 LCD for XF07 36V front hub kit

    Yes. I can understand the tyre size issue. However, my current set up with panaracer ribmos 32mm gives an actual measured diameter of 682mm. The KM529 must be using a diameter of around 786mm........a pretty hefty tyre on that baby!! Now I am being a pedant (but that is the reality).

    Speed sensor & King Meter KM-529 LCD for XF07 36V front hub kit

    I have recently purchased the XF07 700c front hub kit with 17Ah battery & fitted to a tandem. The first 100 mile is under the belt & I am more than satisfied with the performance of motor hub and battery so far. The only small niggle, & it is small (but if I were following an Audax route it...

    How weatherproof is your typical conversion kit

    I already tried adjusting the wheel sizes to obtain correct speed although it didn't seem to make much difference. I have an exact-ish 10 mile course local to me so I'll check it on that shortly. I am basing the error assumption on comparison with my originally fitted Speedo (front wheel magnet)...

    How weatherproof is your typical conversion kit

    I've had a close look at the disc rotor threaded holes & it looks like they may actually give access to the motor hub internals so I've just ordered a slack handful of M5 grub screws to blank the holes up. The tandem is fairly low geared, think it's a 24 / 30 granny so even on the steepest...

    How weatherproof is your typical conversion kit

    Thanks for the response. I can't really see myself using the throttle too much (unless it is to amuse the kids) so will probably try and shroud that in a ziplock bag or something. Basque country a nice place to be based, we used to pull in to Pasajes on the Biscay Coast on a small coaster I used...

    How weatherproof is your typical conversion kit

    I have recently fitted a Woosh XF07 front hub kit with 17Ah battery to a 700c cheapish alloy tandem (cromo forks). Very, very happy so far with the product & the customer service from Woosh. Could anybody here give advice as to any special precautions to take when using these conversion kits in...
