    Where can I get a compatible replacement handlebar display for a Pendleton Somerby ebike? (King Meter 790 LED)

    I tried pretty hard to crack open the old display, but even with a hammer and pliers it was surprisingly resistant! For anyone else coming to this thread with the same problem: In the end, I gave up and dragged the whole bike over to Halfords. They had a box of random spares, and after a slow...

    What a nightmare. I guess ebikes are new and it's just the wild west as far as standards and compatibility goes!

    What's the difference between KT / 8fun / King Meter? Is there any way to tell which one I need? There's no brand name on it, and all these displays on Aliexpress look nearly identical.

    Where can I get a compatible replacement handlebar display for a Pendleton Somerby ebike? (King Meter 790 LED)

    Hello friendly forum folks, I have a Pendleton Somerby ebike. It's a low-end commuter ebike with a hub motor and generally cheap components. Some combination of wear and water have shorted out the display/buttons unit on the handlebars. I believe the rest of the electrics are good, and I don't...
