Thanks for the clarification [mention=6303]Woosh[/mention] that is the clearest anyone has explained it to me so far. I'm feeling my comment hijacked the original post so let's head back to that. Sorry Ravi.

You mention not wanting a motorbike, but both kits are above 250w and so legally they will be classed as one. I agree with d8veh that the rear drive would be better, front is possible but it is need a torque arm.

Sorry, last question, because if the word affix. If I had a 1000w motor limited to 250w using an LCD and then put a 250w stamp on it it would be road legal? I'm asking because if that is the case then I'll aim for a higher wattage to blast the bike on private land without having to change anything except the LCD.

Thanks Woosh, looking forward to buying the kit you suggested then, thanks so much for the help. I'll need to work out a solution with the brakes as mine have both gears and brakes in one unit on the handlebars. Brilliant, thanks for the help guys.

My understanding was that the hub had to show what wattage it is alongside being speed limited. Would it be road legal to have a 350w limited by the LCD screen to 25km/h? I just reread the stuff on this website and it says it isn't clear.

Thanks so much for the links guys, very tempted by both [mention=6303]Woosh[/mention] option and [uSER=4366]@d8veh[/uSER] option. Dumb question but I'm assuming they can take disk brakes? To answer [mention=18293]DynatechFan[/mention] I guess if something were to happen (like going into the back if a car, or a kid running into the road and getting hit) then having a road legal bike means not being pulled up on it if insurance claims happen. But I guess for day to day the police round me don't care, but I guess that isn't a the point. [mention=6303]Woosh[/mention] just to say you website footer is taking up most the mobile page using chrome on android.

[mention=10356]anotherkiwi[/mention] thanks! I laughed at the ramp comment, it is a bridge I have to hit every day. I need to be road legal though so I will have to stay at 250w. Will check out Woosh. No experience installing a mid drive, are they as "plug and play" as the other kits? [uSER=4366]@d8veh[/uSER] I've seen you are a fan of the KT controller. Sorry to ask you to do this but would you mind adding links to what you said before so I can take a look at precisely what you mean? I need to be road legal so I'll need to stick to the 15.5mph.

Afternoon all! Only a few months into this game and so still learning, so please excuse the lack of technical language. I am keen to purchase a road legal kit with the option of 500/1000w for fun off road. At the moment I have three options ahead of me and I need your advice. Rider details: Height: 172cm Weight: 76kg Age: 30 Commute: Distance (A to B): 2.9 miles Return: 5.8 miles Steepest gradient: 22.2% Ebike knowledge: not a huge amount! Option 1: Use my current bike. The bike I have (photographed in my kitchen) is a GT Transeo 4.0 (pretty much the same as this, the details and specs are here), it has a 27 inch wheel size and disk brakes. The rear dropouts are vertical and 13.5cm apart. It has an 8 cog speed Shimano gear system on the back wheel but I don't think it is a freewheel, but I don't know if this matters. The frame triangle is approx. 38cm from bottom to top, 48cm across and 60cm to link them so I think there will be plenty of space for the battery. My issue is that the frame is aluminium so I am wondering if this is an issue. It is also currently a hybrid so only has a max space of 5.5cm for the rear tyre to fit into before it starts rubbing the frame. I was thinking cyclotricity duel kit? Option 2: Buy a second hand bike and attach a kit Anyone done this? I am assuming that there are common bikes used? An email back from cyclotricity said "we do a 48/12 rack and a 48/12 frame and the ds-6 frame type", but I have no idea what that means. Option 3: Buy an ebike ready made. I was thinking about the Woosh Karoo, but there are so many available. What would you do? Any help appreciated!

Lol this is what a Samsung does, no, it is what my current Rom does. I have a rooted galaxy note 3 and yes I was panicking when I took the pictures that stuffing all those wires back into the space was going to stop the bike working if I broke one. Sorry the quality is low. Ok, I didn't see a grey/white connected loop like in the picture you provided. If I do find one though, why would I do? Is it as simple as just disconnecting the loop?

Hi Footpump, no part number or any other indication on the controller, just a sticker with Chinese on it. Thanks for looking nealh.

Oh man, wires everywhere! Here are the pictures...

Thanks man, really helpful. I can unscrew and access, it is just what I do once that is done. I have no idea what I'd do with a new controller or if I find there are wires coming out if mine, what I do then?

Thanks d8veh, I've read a fair amount of posts from you. Thanks for replying. I'm trying to find out how to do this and struggling to find out stuff online. Can you push me in the right direction please? Thanks again.

Hi guys, I won't tell anyone...but has anyone managed to derestrict a kudos secret? I'm asking for a friend
