    Did you think about asking them? Isn't it more important to get a quality refurbishment done than worry about the brand of cells?

    S810 controller settings

    P07 is the number of magnets in the speed sensor, which would normally be 1 or 6 if it has the white wire in the motor connector and the white wire is connected to a speed sensor. If one of those conditions are false, it will then use the normal motor magnets for a speed signal; however, if you...

    TSDZ2 pinion gear cover friction

    I would have used UV glue, which is as strong as welding. You can glue a broken spoke together with it.

    FS Conversation advice

    You need to take off the cranks to check whether a crank drive would fit. With the emphasis more on trails than tarmac, a mid drive might be better because the mass of hub-motors affect the suspension a bit. Regarding the battery, it's quite a lot of work to make one, so you need to consider...

    Warranty Question/Problem

    I would say that it's quite unreasonable to expect the supplier to bear any responsibility after 10 months of use when you don't know what's wrong with the bike and haven't made any attempt to find out. The problem could be as simple as a blown fuse caused by yourself not using the correct...

    Help! Hi , Carrera vulcan battery charger flashing red.

    The charger on't give any power until after successful handshaking, so measuring it is probably a waste of time unless it shows zero. From memory, you can measure 14v in the ready state, or something thereabouts - definitely not the normal 42V.

    So wobbly wheels are ok then??

    He He has a cassette motor with a 12mm axle supported on three bearings. The chance of it getting bent is close to zero. Yours was probably 9mm, which is fairly easy to bend - even worse if its a freewheel. That's another disadvantage of using crank motors, especially high power ones. The...

    General Advice for Bike Choice When Doing a Conversion

    I don't recommend mid drives for riding on the road unless you have special circumstances. All systems work, and different ones have different advantages and disadvantages. Generally, mid drives require more maintenance to the drive system, are more expensive, less reliable and give a harsher...

    Those battery lights sometimes get a mind of their own. use a meter to figure out whether the battery is switched on or off.

    UK compliant converter kit

    Throttle only is now illegal. The motor's power has to be cut when you stop pedalling. £300 is too tight. A decent battery is about £250. Where do yo live? If you're anywhere near me, I can probably help you out with some stuff.

    UK compliant converter kit

    It's worth paying a few more pounds for a decent kit. It's going to be on your bike helping you for years and thousands of miles, so worth getting one that you're going to like. The cheap kits have bad control systems that make it difficult to get the right amount of power. Instead, they just...

    So wobbly wheels are ok then??

    Probably not the spokes then. They have to be quite loose to click. The click is more of a tinkling noise from spokes.

    Sorry, another "What should I buy?" thread...

    That's about what you'll get on the flat with no wind with the tuning device. As he said, it only eliminates the speed limit from your motor and keeps the power the same. It's not a new motor.

    S810 controller settings

    The number of PAS magnets has nothing to do with speed. You have to set the number of magnets in the speed sensor, which is normally 1 and sometimes 6.. If the speed's 20% low, set it to 6. If it's 5 times the speed, set it to 1.

    kunteng kt36/48 no battery level

    Who told you to add a copper bridge? The copper wire you used looks a lot thicker than 1mm in the photo. I suspect that it's allowing a lot too much current, which is shutting down your battery. What battery are you using? The standard 35A is already a lot for a 36v battery. Your shunt mod...
