Just tried out the e Brompton conversion with my trailer, no problems at all, apart from not having enough power to get up a short steep cobbled lock ramp, that needs bottom gear and full power on the mid drive hybrid. I thought there was a thread for just posting pics of bikes out and about...

Just found water in the battery case, HL 36v 17ah. I'd left the bike out in the rain last week. The battery is now showing only a glimmer of red on the scale when I push the button on the case, reading 36.04v with the meter, the charger light is staying green when I connect the charger so it...

@matthewslack FYI. Plenty of room in your trailer. I wish I'd known the last tip on the list, having recently ventured through wildest Rhyl. l

I have an old crystalyte DD hub, resurrected with KT 25a controller and lcd3, working fine, but just can't get the P1 magnet count to stick below 20. Afaik there are 18 magnets. The speed is 1 or 2 mph below actual, as checked with a speed app on phone. I've tried a variety of options, setting...

A new pen has been invented, battery powered, ball point - an eBic. Where's my coat?

@matthewslack is this you? :D

Hi all, Finally got round to sorting out my recumbent tandem. It's got a Crystalyte 408 Journey 36v 20a front hub motor. It had been cutting out, a switch off and on cured it. I found that the 3 Anderson connectors on the phase wires had been smashed and held back together with tape! I've now...

This may prove useful for some old members, advice from (purportedly) the original WD40 ad from 1964.

The trailer axle hitch was rotating downwards when pulling a bit of weight. I made up a bracing arm that fits against frame tube to hold it steady.

Check out cycling on this graph, not sure where an ebike would fit, perhaps not far from leg power. Urban Cycling Institute on Facebook. "'Just as the computer, the bicycle is a tool that amplifies our inherent abilities to spectacular magnitudes' — Steve Jobs (Scientific American measured the...

I've read that disc brakes are best for an ebike, but not.possible.with a 15yr old hybrid frame with v brakes. Brakes were reasonable, but I do carry lots of shopping and pull a trailer. So got a set of Magura hydraulic rim brakes, a bit of faff on eBay, the "complete set" wasn't but they gave...

I've just tried the Speeed app, on the initial motor info page the motor is rated a 20ah. I have on occasion gone up to 17ah but had read here that any higher might not be wise. So what is the problem with going up to 20ah if that is what is in the motor spec? Just in the grounds of the mansion...

My Double Vision Recumbent tandem has arrived, had a play with it today. It has a crystalyte 36v front hub, 9ah soft pack battery, twist throttle with battery indicator. It's quite an old kit. No markings on the case, having looked at the website it's probably a SAW 400 4012 or similar, with...
