    VLCD5 Thumb Throttle.

    I have a TSDZ 2 and a VLCD5 display. I would like to add a throttle but I believe the VLCD5 I have has the wrong number of wires and is not compatible. Could anyone suggest a compatible display and/or a hack. A knee injury means I'm going to have to join the thousands of law breakers and stop...

    Bottom Bracket Size

    I've had the TSDZ2 fitted to my twenty year old bike for three years, and now I'm looking to move the kit to a new bike. Nothing fancy, but the problem is making sure I buy a bike with the correct size Bottom Bracket. I see things like this "Sealed, 68x122.5mm Square taper ". I get the 66mm bit...

    Fitting a thumb throttle TSDZ2

    I have done a bit of trawling of various forums and drawn a blank. I want to fit one to the VLCD5 display which is shown below (apologies for the out of focus plug). I just need to know what I need to get and what's involved with firmware/software ETC. TIA Pete

    TongSheng Tsdz screeching noise.

    I built the bike in 2020 but it's been laid up for almost a year. I rode it for about a mile today and whilst cycling up a slight slope the motor started to make a screeching noise like the gears were not meshing maybe. I freewheeled it down the slope back to home, and as soon as I attempted to...

    TSDZ2 Speedo Problem.

    The unit has been quite problem free but I took it for a run this week, after being laid up for a couple of months and found that by bionic legs had stopped working. Took it out again today and had the same problem, but this time I noticed my speed was 62.4 MPH. If I push the bike it reads the...

    Hacking firmware.

    I've done a bit of Googling and there are various opinions on what can be done to reflash the firmware and alter the parameters. There seems to be too much information out there and the more I read the less sure I am of how to proceed. Is there anyone with experience of doing this with the...

    Handlebars.

    I've now had a chance to ride my TSDZ2 converted bike for a couple of hours and so far I'm well pleased. Living in Swansea west this has included a few hills including a 25.1% gradient. For the benefit of Mike Killay, Dunvant Hill. The only niggle I have is the pain in my arms, and I discovered...

    Factory Reset.

    I changed the display from KPH to MPH and since then, although everything works fine, I get no speed indication. I've tried reverting to KPH but still no go. I've also disconnected the battery for a few seconds to no avail. Is there a way to do a factory reset on the VLCD5 or are there any...

    TSDZ2 conversion kit arrived today.

    Ten working days after I placed my order the kit arrived at lunchtime today. I'd already stripped down the crank set, so I slid the motor into the bottom bracket. Wasted some time looking for some 25mm M5 bolts and some 10mm spacers to replace the ones fitted to the motor before I realised they...

    How do I, Should I?

    As you can see I've got the cranks off. I've also removed the "cassette?". I now need to know how to separate the crank from the gear cluster. I have done some Googling & checked YouTube but they only show me how to do the bits I've already done. The existing large sprocket has 48 teeth, as I...

    Motor & Battery Combination.

    Hello from me. I hope you can provide some illumination. I did an E-bike conversion about twenty years ago using a a lead acid battery and a belt friction drive on the rear wheel. I'm sure it was something Clive Sinclair did. Fast forward and I now want to fit a mid drive Bafang kit but I...
