I shall have a look later, on my ride home from work...

Just bought one of these bikes. Nice bike, decent ride, but yes, a BIT more speed would be nice. I'll be following this thread & scouring the web...

Woah there, buddy. Wind your neck in. You really don't seem to get what I mean either. I'd rather you refrained from "helping" any further. I shall refrain from calling you what I'd like to call you.

Maybe I phrased it wrong. What I mean is, the PAS doesn't kick in until I pedal at a certain rate, so I still have to pedal my *rse off to get it to kick in. If I shift to a lighter gear, and therefore have to put less effort in to pedal faster, it works just fine.

I'm leaning closer to that every day. The tools are indeed not too expensive. It's a lack of confidence, mainly - afraid I'll break ****! :rolleyes:

Agreed. I was not impressed. It's a shame I don't have the space or the tools to do everything myself, as I used to be pretty handy at fixing bikes back when I were a yoof. It's really annoying; normal bike shops don't want to touch e-bikes, e-bike shops only really sell & work on their "own"...

Have a look here. There's a manual in here, with all the settings, you may need to change. You need to register to get the post with the setytings: ~ How to Remove Speed Limit Samebike LO26, Fiido D1 / Unlock 40km/h Top Speed Chinese Electric Bikes! | TechCat.ca - New Gadgets and Technology

Update on this... I've had the freewheel fitted now. Bit pointless, as it looks like the PAS on my bike works on cadence, so I still have to pedal just as fast to get assistance, which means I now ride in a lower gear, as I can't pedal that fast on the smallest rear cog (weakling, I am). And I...

Can you point me to some? I've been having a look around eBay, but I can't see the wood through the trees - so many options, I have no idea which to go for! With the 11 tooth rear freewheel I'm going to fit, I recon the stock largest front sprocket will be good, but I have no idea how many teeth...

I love that. Nice job. Was there no issues with the hydraulic disk brake conversion? The brakes are wired into the control unit? I think the bike could do with better brakes, especially if I'm making it lighter, changing the gearing etc. I'm also considering having the entire front derailleur...

I got a decent set of Fox Floats on eBay, for £60.

Bugger... Was going to fit the new gear cluster at the weekend. Bloody motor wiring runs through the axle, and goes into the frame - wasn't going to unplug all the wiring! May have to pay a professional for this.

Got a set of Fox Floats - should be arriving tomorrow. Guess I'm dismantling and rebuilding my bike next weekend, with the freewheel, forks, tyres, new disc brakes... :rolleyes:

Thanks! So - would something like these work for me? https://www.bikester.co.uk/bike-parts/suspension-forks/mtb-forks-up-to-100mm/265921.html

Hi, has anybody done this? The stock forks are awful, feel like they might snap if I ever took the bike off road. I know I'd need a 1 1/8ths fork, but do I need threaded or not? I'd rather not dismantle the whole front end to find out I bought the wrong forks... I know the LO26 is only cheap...

Pulled the trigger, bought the freewheel & tool that @vfr400 posted. See if it works when it gets here.

Would this fit? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Shimano-Cassette-HG41-7-Speed-11-28T/283934454700

Cool, thanks. That's useful information. I'll see if I can find the right tool.

It already has one. It has a front derailleur & 3 sprockets. Which are pretty useless, I stuck it on the largest sprocket & haven't touched the front shifter since.
