Ok thanks for that information i think its a best bet to rebuild the wheel when i have time i have a spare good rim to do this ,how are you contactable should i require spokes do you have a web site?

has anyone had a problem with spokes snapping with the bafang bpm kit from greenbikekit and know a uk supplier of replacement spokes?

batteries do seem to have good reviews on the net and they are very helpful and answer e-mails very quick thanks for your input

Hello i am after a new battery for a 8fun motor and 350w controller i have come across a company called 'ping battery who make to order batteries has anyone had any experience with this company? The battery i am looking at is the 36v 10a or poss the 15a however these batteries look very small any info appreciated.

to be honest i had a power problem with this kit from the start even before i changed the controller , the battery would not switch off by the switch (and this was before i changed any wiring or controller) the information i was given was that this battery would be fine for the controller but would shorten the life cycle of it (what you had said) it seems pointless buying another battery from sunlova as the kit with their controller is no good for me. i should had bought the Ailien kit so i only have myself to blame

i m told its 20mp

i am using a 350w controller made by e-crazyman for the 8fun motor as the sunlova controller was completely useless in the power assist mode i needed to boost it a little

ok thanks for that i was given wrong information and if i had know the controller would damage the battery would not had used it

the battery in the link has a 10a continuous discharge current am i not looking for one with a 20a discharge current ? or if so i would pay the extra for the bigger battery if i can use with the controller .

i should point out the picture is of the inside of the terminal box the first time it melted since then sunlova sent me a new box and the same has happened again 2 weeks later (this time damaging battery )the two red wires you see were slightly welded together when i opened the box

good evening all , i have sent a number of posts reguarding my sunlova kit which i have had nothing but trouble with i would very much appreciate information from anyone that may have had problems with this kit or any advise from any experts .earlier in the week my battery for this kit packed up i had just charged it and got about half a mile down the road and the battery gauge shot to red ,when i got home the battery would not charge as soon as i plugged it in the charger showed the green light and would not start to charge . previously i had a problem with the battery terminal box (the wires inside melted) and a problem with the controller which did not seem to be letting enough power through.when i contacted sunlova they said they would send out a new controller but could i fix the wires myself which i did however sunlova have now told me that i have damaged the battery because i had modified the wiring and it had shorted out(and burned the battery inside) .i changed the wires to thicker because the existing ones were far to thin and in my option caused them to melt in the first place. surely it there was a short the fuse would had blown before damaging the battery? any advise or information would be appreciated .

Battery thanks will bear that in mind if they don't replace it appreciated.

Thanks appreciate that i will bear that in mind if sunlova don't replace it

glad to see i am not the only one with problems with the sunlova kit i to had a problem with the controller (not letting enough power through) and now the batteries gone after using it only half a dozen times battery is with sunlova and i am hoping there will replace it even though out of warranty by 2 months some interesting points though sunlova claim they had no problems with these batteries or controllers ? i also had the battery checked before sending off to them and have been told its only a 8amp battery? unless i am going mad it was a 9amp supplied with kit.would be interested to hear any comments from other sunlova owners ,anyway the ailen special is still going strong ! considering getting another but i have just looked on the kudos site and very interested in there bikes and the fact they do spare batteries at a good price anyone know when the site goes live?

Ok thanks for all your info sunlova currently have the battery hopefully they may replace it
