    Swytch Mk3 Air problem with third-party hub

    Thanks again for the response. It’s a Topology SW102 controller. If there’s any other info that you think might help get to the bottom of this issue, please just ask..

    Swytch Mk3 Air problem with third-party hub

    I guess I didn’t make it absolutely clear that it’s the Swytch top-of-the-line LCD controller/display, but I have no idea how to go about accessing any settings other than the standard options of wheel size and max speed, that Swytch give instructions for - and I have already done those settings...

    Swytch Mk3 Air problem with third-party hub

    I have a Swytch Air (mk3) set up with the LCD controller connected to a XieTong Q100C CST 36V 350W rear hub motor. This is my second “hybrid” set up for a Mezzo folding bike and the first one (similar hub, think it’s an Q128?) works with no problems. This new build is showing some strange...

    Need a hub motor recommendation - 36h rear cassette, 135mm OLD, 36V, 250-350W, 328rpm for 16" wheel build

    You are quite right about the freewheel version - but I am so many years away from the last time I used a freewheel and I don't think that it would match up with the 9s shifters that I would like to use..

    Need a hub motor recommendation - 36h rear cassette, 135mm OLD, 36V, 250-350W, 328rpm for 16" wheel build

    Maybe - but I am not sure that I could deal with whatever I find if I was able to open up the hub!!

    Need a hub motor recommendation - 36h rear cassette, 135mm OLD, 36V, 250-350W, 328rpm for 16" wheel build

    So, if anyone has any other suggestions for a hub to try..? I have found these online: These appear to be the same: https://www.ebay.com/itm/355818854951 https://www.ebay.com/itm/176533535673 https://www.ebay.com/itm/395584706882 Don't think this will work because the axle is too wide...

    Need a hub motor recommendation - 36h rear cassette, 135mm OLD, 36V, 250-350W, 328rpm for 16" wheel build

    I have used a Q128C CST rear 36V hub (actually, this was 500W!) successfully and it was quick, but heavy. I tried to source a Q100C CST (lighter, but less powerful for sure) from the same supplier (BMSBattery), but the hub they sent me was flawed... BMSBattery have refused to engage with...

    Need a hub motor recommendation - 36h rear cassette, 135mm OLD, 36V, 250-350W, 328rpm for 16" wheel build

    Thank you all for replies to date - I've got several bikes with 328rpm 36V 250/350W motors fitted to 16" wheels (one front, one rear - think the rear may be rated a bit higher than 350W..) and if I set them up to provide maximum assist, they'll do around 18mph on the flat. That's plenty for me -...

    Need a hub motor recommendation - 36h rear cassette, 135mm OLD, 36V, 250-350W, 328rpm for 16" wheel build

    Anyone got thoughts on the best option for a rear wheel cassette hub motor for a folding bike conversion (motor can't go on the front wheel)? It's going to be a 16" wheel, so would need a high-rpm geared hub, already have a 36h rim, would like 250-350W and 36V, with a 9-pin connector exiting...

    Can anyone recommend - 36v/350w/135mm/Juliet/36h compact rear hub motor for 16" wheel?

    Wait, think I found the rear version here: https://www.ebikes.ca/shop/electric-bicycle-parts/motors.html?motor_mount=126&motor_type=135&motor_watts_sel=71 Is this a good bet for what I want to do?

    Can anyone recommend - 36v/350w/135mm/Juliet/36h compact rear hub motor for 16" wheel?

    As per the title, I have some experience with electric conversion kits for my Brompton, but not much else. I'm trying to convert another 16" wheel folder (Mezzo), but this needs a rear wheel motor. Specs ideally would be 36v/350w/135mm/Juliet/36h compact (i.e. small hub diameter) rear hub motor...
