Hi all,
I bought a Onebot S6 a few months ago but have recently noticed that when I get off the bike and walk with it pedal assist seems to kick in and it almost drag me away.
I know I should always probably switch it off or go into “gear 0” when off the bike but at times I just want to get off and wheel it a short distance. Or someone else is riding the bike and gets a nasty surprise when they try to wheel it along.
Observing it more closely, I can see while pushing it that the back wheel/chain spins the pedals while walking, so I’m guessing the rotation sensor is telling the bike I am peddling. What is also strange is that when the happens I slam the brake and get it to a standstill, but when I release the brake it tries to go again until I slam the brakes again.
Has anybody noticed this with their Onebot S6 or did I just get unlucky?
I have emailed Onebot, but got no response.
