    It is a pretty standard split disc with a retaining clip, one can get them from a few sellers and on ebay.

    UK use of throttle

    To reiterate the above . No it isn't illegal to have a throttle , it must though be a certified throttle by DVLA via test center so a test certificate/V5 is needed ( This is a once in a lifetime certificate) Or it must only operate if one pedals first. One isn't allowed a twist & go or thumb...

    Review of Argos £285 Folding Bike

    The cells used must be junk cheap china cells. You guys really need to open the battery to see. If I had bought one I would have done so as I would 100% replace with a Kt controller.

    Over voltage protection

    Generic chargers don't detect anything, they are a dumb electric apperatus. It is the BMS that allows any charge to take place , the charger is just a voltage regulator that turns 240v ac voltage in to lower safer dc voltage. Short charging is nonsense and one gains very little over the...

    Swytch motor varients

    For 26" or 700c the hub winding could be anything from 201- 300rpm. What you need to find out from other users of switch hubs is can the display speed be changed to more then 15.5mph and if so what is the max load speed. I would think 260/270rpm would be used for 26" or 700c.

    Review of Argos £245 E-move folder

    Any bike when powered on over a wet metal cover would spin out on the rear, it isn't just a hub issue. Oner reason why I stay clear of them and never apply my brakes when on/over them

    Help! Pendleton Somerby Ebike - battery casing has disintergrated around the screws

    I should rephrase and say Wisper aren't the only legal 250w ebike that can have a throttle but rather they are the only UK 250w/EAPC brand that offer the legal throttle route via certification. Other brands can offer the same service but afaik , no one else does.

    Swytch motor varients

    Aikema make five or six variants of the 100sx . You are likely correct with the first four digits being the date , after that they are likely simply serial numbers. The variations have so called varying Nm values so the 5xx/6xx could be a code for the Nm value, might be a factory code if not...

    Help! Decade old Diamond (Batribike)

    Early batribike used generic comms /battery wiring , later newer models I believe gained some kind of comm's maybe even CANbus type.

    Panasonic battery dead on Gazelle C7 HF

    Battery wise if it is generic type one will likely find any replacement wouldn't fit the carrier so one would either opt for a recell to keep battery and rack authentic or for a replacement battery one would have to change the rear rack/carrier . It is a nice bike so if possible a recell would...

    Panasonic battery dead on Gazelle C7 HF

    Alternately one could replace the controller kit with a KT set up but it would depend on the motor connector used ( I think the C7 uses a junction enclosure on the rear of the front fork so wiring may be a simple connection affair within) one will hsave to open it up and look, though if it is a...

    Panasonic battery dead on Gazelle C7 HF

    10 years ago the bike cost 2.5k euros so not a cheap bike by far. There are various drive brands available for the C7 though the Panny set up may be the least to use advanced comm's. It depends on the battery to controller comms, does it use handshaking comm's or is it generic comm's. Look at...

    Carrera replacement after market rear motor

    Nearly all hubs have the cable entry/exit on the RHS, the only real exception is Aikema on the LHS.

    C500

    The controller and display purchased as a pair or part of a kit will be programmed to work together , sometimes buying separate parts such a sonly a display may work but if firmware or programming differs then one may be left a little underwhelmed as in this case. It seems it is lacking...

    Help! Pendleton Somerby Ebike - battery casing has disintergrated around the screws

    You are welcome David , I don't mind plugging Wisper or even Woosh as both you guys are top forum sponsors and we all know of the good CS both give. Would be nice to see Tony and the Woosh team also attending maybe next year ? Sadly I'm unable to be there as I have previously mentioned , but...

    Oxygen S Cross CB MK11

    Three power levels with six PAS levels stiull makes it 18 power levels/settings to use just as the Oxydrive did. One assumes the Oxygen uses the DAS kit system which is a Lishui speed control system, I remember the Oxydrive was pretty fast it's Bafang CST (300rpm ?) with the 17a controller...

    Oxygen S Cross CB MK11

    I would have kept the Eagle all day long over the Oxygen, I agree the 18 power levels is way too many . The Oxydrive kit from H2 engineering was the same and I only ever used six power levels. The KT is by far the best replacement system to use. One simply can't just replace only the...

    Help! Pendleton Somerby Ebike - battery casing has disintergrated around the screws

    If one wants a truly legal throttle ebike then opt for a Wisper bike, main outlet headquarters is in Sevenoaks ,Kent. However there are many Wisper dealers dotted around the UK. Wisper are the only 250w bike which can have a legal authourised throttle approved via the DOT if one specifies...
