Here's the pinout of the data (display) cable, if that's of use to anybody?

For anybody reading this thread 5 years later, it is possible to re-cell GTECH packs, both V1 and V2. There's a bit of disassembly involved (and sealant to break through) and you have to be careful not to damage the BMS or proprietary connectors/ cables but it's doable. I've done both types successfully and restored them with higher than original capacity cells.

The Carrera Vengeance doesn't need a special battery and I suspect the Array doesn't either. Try it and see!

Interesting project. How did you wire everything up in the end? You left a lot of your own questions unanswered!

Thanks, useful info. I'll take it to a specialist wheel builders near me and get their opinion as to the feasibility of my repairing the rim, failing which I might pay them to rebuild the wheel.

Might be the bad pic, but I can't see a thread on the end of that spoke! And why is it bent?

I have another problem with this wheel besides the missing spokes - one of the nipples seems to have pulled through the rim. A reasonable man would take this as a message to rebuild from scratch with a new rim but I'm wondering if I can effect some kind of repair with a washer behind? Some preliminary Googling suggests this might indeed be possible. https://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/spoke-pulled-through-rim-fix-with-a-washer/

Measured mine tonight from the bend - as best as I could see, to the rim @ 272/273mm, same as yours, so i'll get 274mm (272 + 2mm for what's beneath the rim), if that worked for you, thanks.

As much as that?!

Thanks, that's straightforward useful information that will save me some hassle.

The wheel has 2 broken/ missing spokes. I just need to replace those.

Thanks but I'm not sure I understand any of that. I hoped you might remember what you ordered. I think I'll just remove one of the intact spokes, measure the length and get some matching 14G replacements on eBay. Strange that the Pendleton spoke specs aren't generally available anywhere on the web, considering how often they need replacing!

Hi, Hi, I know it's a long time ago but can you remember the size spec of the Pendleton Somerby motor wheel spokes? And where you purchased the 14G alternatives? Thanks, John

Could somebody with a Swytch Air or Max battery who knows what they are doing please put a voltmeter negative probe in the discharge slot numbered 1 in my attached image below and report the measured voltages on the positive probe across slots 2, 3 and 4? Include any negative signs and be very careful not to short any of the slots through the probes! Thanks.
