    EBike not running / controller issues (?) - advice sought.

    Hello all. The testing so far (i obtained one of the dedicated ebike tester devices) point to the controller being the problem. So, where is the best place for me to obtain a brushless controller for a hall-controlled 36v 250w installation ? Thanks
