    My cursed TSDZ2...

    So after having my crank fall off and my charger failing there appears to be another problem. The cranks will now only turn with a massive amino if force and won’t back pedal. The throttle will get the back wheel moving but there seems to be some extra noise from the motor. Could this be a...

    TSDZ2 Crank fell off - what spec for replacement nut?

    Thanks. Is it not beneficial to charge to 80% or less when you dont need the capacity and charge to 100% occasionally to ensure cells are balanced?

    TSDZ2 Crank fell off - what spec for replacement nut?

    I have checked the plugs fuse by using that cable on my laptop charger, but haven't checked for an internal fuse in the power block. If i get chance i may try and open it up to look inside. Thanks for the multimeter advice, will pick one up form Screwfix when i am there next. PS, is there any...

    TSDZ2 Crank fell off - what spec for replacement nut?

    Thanks. Charger has arrived and my battery is now fully charged, so issue is definitely with the original charger. Is there much benefit from getting a smart charger? Is there much benefit from keeping the battery charged at less than 100% if it is not being used for longer periods?

    Unfortunately I don’t have a meter. there is a light on the charger that is no longer lighting up indicating that the charger is dead. But appreciate this is not conclusive.

    TSDZ2 Crank fell off - what spec for replacement nut?

    It has been working fine. I think it quite a coincidence if the charger light stopped working at the same time that the battery lights went out of calibration.

    TSDZ2 Crank fell off - what spec for replacement nut?

    Unfortunately the power position makes no difference now, no light on the charger no matter what. What chargers are recommended? Is there any benefit on getting a more expensive charger apart from increased amps / charging speed?

    TSDZ2 Crank fell off - what spec for replacement nut?

    #NotMuchLuck So now my charger has decided to stop working! Got home with battery quite low, flicking between one and two bars on the VLCD5, and one red and one green on the battery. Plugging the battery charger in and no lights are showing on the charger block. Have tested the lead between the...

    TSDZ2 Crank fell off - what spec for replacement nut?

    Let us know what you come up with. I hope this isn't going to be a long term problem on my bike. For the past five years my bike has been 100% reliable, not even a puncture (I really shouldn't have typed that out, I feel fate's shadow looming, aaargghh).

    TSDZ2 Crank fell off - what spec for replacement nut?

    Thanks Gavin, will make sure i have my bike multitool and a spare in my bag. PS, i tried the 6kmh walk mode, but soon realised how slow 6kmh is! I tried changing the wheel size hoping this would trick the motor to go faster but no such luck, the speed felt the same but the display just showed...

    Where to buy TSDZ2 - and have i got the right items on my list.

    What is the smallest display for the tsdz? The vlcd5 takes up a lot of space on my handlebars and so far I have only used the assist level and view of battery levels.

    Where to buy TSDZ2 - and have i got the right items on my list.

    Thanks Peter. I think I’ve got mine well secured now but may add some old inner tube as you suggest. Ps. I have found the source of the annoying rattle, it was the charger plug cover. Have put a couple of layers of insulation tape and that has almost totally removed the noise. Now that has...
