March 18, 20188 yr I made my own and tapped them directly to the fork, the drop out is very meaty and has a flat triangulated area to the front of the D/O and at about £50 odd not very expensive. Only about 65mm of travel but enough for most needs and super strong D/O. The fork and bpm are no longer fitted to my Norco 700c, I laced the bpm in to a 26" wheel and use it in the 700c fork on a h/t mtb the fork gives a lot more mud clearance above it can get up to 2.25" tyre in it.

March 19, 20188 yr It doesn't really matter what you do, fitting a motor to aluminium or magnesium forks is never without risk because both materials are prone to fatigue failure. If your forks are already cracked, you could consider geinding the dropouts off to leave just the basic aluminium tube, then make a steel cover out of say 100mm of steel tube with a new drop-out welded to it. Epoxy it over the old fork.
March 19, 20188 yr Steel suspension forks: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CHILI-WORKS-380-BLACK-26-DISC-SUSPENSION-BIKE-FORKS-1-1-8-AHEAD-206MM-STEERER/142632055631?epid=20011747061&hash=item213588734f:g:kc0AAOSwSuNahCKJ
March 19, 20188 yr Controllers are lishui, the kit is supplied by Daskit in Germany. http://www.das-kit.com/ yeah, I found them in google, contacted them 4 days ago, still waiting for reply. looks like u cannot buy it online, which is weird.
March 19, 20188 yr You can put any small controller in there. Take it out of its aluminium box and screw it to the heatsink in the Oxydrive box, like the original one. The only thing you can't get is the cable arrangement, so you have splice all the cables, which is not really a big job. It's probably best to get a new LCD too because the Oxygen one only works with the a Li Shui controller, and even then, only on certain ones.

My controller is broke in half, the but that holds the battery has separated. So I need to new one
March 19, 20188 yr Don't have the bike with me, but here i marked what broke off: the aluminum bit broke off just below the connector

Epoxy it over the old fork. I agree, if I was using the bike then perhaps I would chance it but I think under the circumstances I will go either with a new rear wheel motor or a steel fork as per your post below. Thanks again for your and Nealh's time taken in answering my questions!
March 20, 20188 yr So you just need the plastic cover? I need the whole thing, the electronics is also acting up
March 29, 20188 yr does anyone know where to get a new c6 lcd other than oxydrive co uk? mine broke and oxydrive support is useless, they not reply to any of my emails.
March 29, 20188 yr I have a used Oxydrive C302 lcd spare from my CST kit, the integrated controller went wrong so now I have gone over to using KT components. It has six pas levels and 3 current levels. P.M if of use or interested. Edited March 29, 20188 yr by Nealh
March 29, 20188 yr The Das Kit Oxydrive kit is identical to the electrical parts on the Oxygen Emate MTB, so you should be able to get any spares from SYEBC. Andrew has wound down Oxydrive and AFAIK isn't buying any more stock, but he has a friend who sold the same stuff in Poland in much higher quantities, so he can still get stuff for long-term support. I know that he's very busy with his CNC workshop, which is several hours from his home and he doesn't go home that often, which might be the cause of delays.

Looks like u can still order and pay for stuff
March 29, 20188 yr ah thanks good to know that we are left unsupported, £699 goes down the drain I didn't say that at all. Even if there was no support, all the stuff is standard. You can buy controllers, displays sensors and motors from many places. When the battery wears out, you can get it re-celled to a higher specification for less money than an OEM replacement here: https://ebikebatteries.co.uk/

March 29, 20188 yr Bigstone C300 lcd. Connectors; Yellow = for throttle. Small black = for brake cut out sensor. Large multi pin black = for controller cable.

March 29, 20188 yr Oh well 3 in 5 won't go. One extra one is probably another brake cut out and the other will be for remote switch pad.
March 29, 20188 yr Oh well 3 in 5 won't go. One extra one is probably another brake cut out and the other will be for remote switch pad. Sorry i cannot see it on your pics: How many pins does the controller cable have? mine has 8 I don't care about the rest ( throttle and one 1 cut-off) Cheers
March 30, 20188 yr I've just been through all my spare parts and found one of those displays. I took it off a bike that had corrosion in the display connector. The corrosion was so bad that a pin broke off the main harness and is stuck in the display's connector. I don't know if it still works, but I think that there's a good chance that it does. You can have it for nothing if you want to pay for the postage or collect it from Telford. You will need to swap connectors with your one because it's main connector is U/S. Alternatively, you can send me yours and I'll attempt to swap the connectors, but you have to pay the postage both ways - about £3 each way with Collect Plus. I'd say about a 75% chance that it would be OK with a new connector, but I can't test it until I fit one. You could unsolder your connector and send it to me, then I can test it and let you know if its OK.
April 3, 20188 yr hi, thanks but, I decided to ditch this whole e-bike idea and going back to have a road bike. I have some working leftover from the kit if anyone interested PM me, otherwise they might end up in the bin: - OXYDrive downtube 13Ah-black - Front Hub Bafang motor - Upgraded Battery charger.
