@Michael 2025 I just bought marathon plus tour 26 x 1.75 tyres I like a bit of grip over grass and mud sometimes

Irish law but I watched for interest

If my yose motor dies I won't be too upset. I'll buy a decent rear hub

I'm putting my older yose 250w front hub on a spare bike with a 48v battery. Will be mostly a backup. Flat tyre mornings ect. Might be good for my son when he comes riding with me. The 48v battery will also fit a step through bike I'm building but will have a different rear wheel hub...

I was also considering the battery required for a 17amp controller vs 15amp.

@Michael 2025 eBay. Item 256369636190 Here That's what I've ordered I'm winging it with some advice from here so I am no expert

Reading up I think the Kt 15amp controller works with the 250w motors. Any harm in getting a 20amp controller? Edit Found this. https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/max-amps.35406/ To answer. Maybe. Maybe not. Think I'll stick to 15amps. I'll be running at 48v so I think Ill be better off.

I'm going to make this wheel dish tool. Although I used 2 bean tins on table and test distance from table to the nut. Seems close enough. I guess it won't be far out using old spokes.

Update. Tbh I was losing confidence. But... Omg! I've actually done it . I can't believe it!. I got the rim on and dropped wheel in the stand. Gave it a spin and thought I'm in trouble here! Massive wobble right and left by about 25mm. Where do I start? Well I started by looking from the side...

Hi all. Am I right in thinking I'll never buy a matching spoke nipple? 14.2mm long. 2.5mm thread for a 5mm rim hole. Maybe the best way is to buy a new spoke and probably cheaper. Annoying as I just need one. Also...how do spokes come out? It's detached but I cant get it out at the centre hub...

I ordered a new park tool spoke key from Amazon that's just arrived and it don't fit. Fits my other bike wheel though. Guess I'll have another go buying a key. I think it's 3.7mm. I need to study how up on spoke nipples and look at options for buying. I just need one

Update. New rim seems fine. I'm in the process of swapping which is taking time. I'll have another go tomorrow which should see it on. Unfortunately I mangled a spoke nipple so will need to find a replacement.

Nobody has mentioned the new woosh rear hub kit as an alternative. That's worth a consideration

I have two menus on my yose. I read that the 250w now don't have the 2 menus then I read that it actually still has? Not sure what to believe. I can change speed and amps and all sorts in the hidden menu

I fitted the front wheel yose kit. I'd recommend the rear wheel though. For the money it's a good buy at around £400 and a bit cheaper with the discount codes.
