March 29, 20206 yr I have a sunstar so3 kit that has stripped its primary reduction gear and the downtube battery holder is broken but will still work with a strap to old it in place Everything else works fine. I don't want to bin it so hoping it may be of use to someone here. for spares or for a home brew project Motor, controller, secondary reduction, torque sensing BB, Battery , charger all fine Offers?
April 16, 20206 yr Hi, I have a 24v sunstar ibike which is still OK but the battery (down tube bottle type) is past its best. I don't suppose yours is 24v? Also interested in the failure, did it fail without any warning or was it starting to make some sort of noise? Many thanks, Chris
April 20, 20206 yr Author Hi Its a 36 v battery - I do not know if it would work with your system It failed fairly quickly a graunching noise then withing a few minutes stripped the gear
April 20, 20206 yr No, mine is 24 v only, shame. Thanks for coming back though. My motor makes a squeaking noise after 5 miles or so sometimes, I'm wondering if this is the motor on the way out? I took it to the dealer who sold/fitted the kit who tells me they cant find anything wrong with it and also cant reproduce it. So its a question of, how much do I spend on this kit or do it 'skip' it :-( Thanks again.
