I think a hub motor is fine for light off roading , canal paths, forest paths, trails, but most "general purpose" hubs become quite inefficient at less than 7-8 mph and up very steep gradients (steeper than you would get on tarmac roads). A 201 rpm version would be more efficient at that...

Clouds , fog and mist are suspended particles of water in the air. Water vapour is water in it's gaseous state ( and is invisible)

If you just take tank to wheel efficiency for a small modern petrol car, over a typical range of driving, I've never seen anything like 40% - the highest I have seen is 28% for "motorway" type driving at 60mph and more like 10-13% on urban cycles - averaging 16-20% over typical cycles. I can't...

Yes, exactly, there are loads of comparisons that take in the whole energy life cycle. The most inefficient you can make an ev is running it on coal based electricity (not that that applies in the UK) and every study I have seen shows it is still more (well to wheel) efficient that a petrol...

You have to look at well to wheel efficiency not tank to wheel Here they do that exact comparison for small new cars e.g Toyota Camry, VW golf etc https://energy.mit.edu/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Insights-into-Future-Mobility.pdf

But Electric Vehicles running on power station fossil fuel electricity are much more efficient than Internal Combustion Engine vehicles - (because power stations are much more thermally efficienct than ICE vehicles)...

Yes so the Yosepower battery cradle attachment has 2 parts to it, 1) A baseplate (I drilled two holes in this to fit into the frame holes and attached with countersunk bolts M6* 16mm ) 2) the seat post attachment bit that I didn't need The battery cradle (which you need to disassemble)...

If you are OK using Ali Express ( I check the vendor rating and reviews carefully) then go to the Juicy Bike site and download the picture of the battery https://www.juicybike.com/product/accessories/juicy-battery-15.6ah-xrp4801-xpr7186.html and then use the Ali Express search by picture and...

Well you are not too far from me, we could meet up sometime As per @Nealh 's experiences with his Bafang G370 this bike is easy to pedal above the motor cut off speed (set to 25km/h) (I did have to set the assist level to 0 to double check the motor wasn't assisting, it is very quiet)...

Got the motor and wheel and KT controller from tbk on Saturday Everything fitted very easily , including disc rotor. I drilled a couple of holes in the battery cradle mounting plate and attached to the front rack mounting point (it was designed as a seat post battery). Just thought, because...

Quite enlightening the Trust Pilot scores https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/wisperbikes.com https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.wooshbikes.co.uk https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/eleglide.com https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/leoncycle.co.uk

Ok, that's in the expected range. I would expect the motor to engage - any damage/squashing to any of the cables ?

One of the key things we need to know is the voltage of the battery when it is fully charged (using the multimeter)

What is the connector coming out of your battery cradle ? Surely you can just replace the battery cradle and battery and connect it to your controller ? The 9 pin motor cable is standard, but doesn't that come out of your controller ?

I got this one this one from Halfords https://www.halfords.com/motoring/tools/hand-tools/multimeter/rolson-digital-multimeter-710273.html but you can get them for a fiver on ebay...
