    Help! KTM E8 error

    That connector in the picture is quite thick IMO, on my e-bike it is relatively tiny/thin, really not much thicker than the cable running to it. So if you are looking for one as in the picture, it may be far smaller.... I myself overlooked it completely the time my LCD took in rain water, and I...

    Help! Double kickstand help

    The second photo appears to me to be the front of the chain stays from below, with a glimpse of the end of the mudguard. The useful hole has a cable running through it, which might be re-routable possibly, so as to leave the hole free? Then a plate could be made out of say 6mm mild steel, or...

    A whole lot better than it looked to be before! One might say, he got off lightly from the original sum, with help from others.... He could have bought some very fancy e-bikes with that money...... Thanks for the update. Andy

    That is actually worse than I remember, having to have charity to get him out of the financial hole he landed in. Have I got that right now? But its hardly a recommendation still for anyone riding an illegal bike is it? This is as Iremember the case:- Cyclist who knocked over woman on phone must...

    Help! KTM E8 error

    I am nosy, can you post your reasons for saying:- " Not battery but...."? As a major percentage of e-bike problems can eventually be put down to battery and other "power" type problems. Misreading of the many reasons why the charge LED is green and the battery is actually empty, is a prime...

    I really like the trailer idea, and it would be available for some heavy/bulky shopping too if needed!! Andy

    True, but will anyone here actually "Bank on that" for his own defense in a similar situation? Speaking for myself only, I would not! Also he was "dead" lucky that his original (and only) charge (Manslaughter I believe) was unproven, which set him free. A better CPS prosecution member, would...

    Help! Double kickstand help

    I looked and the design you posted seems to be excellent, but it is not advertised as being for e-bikes, as I found to my costs some years ago after purchasing something very similar! In the end, I had to weld extra supporting pieces to allow it to take the weight better (though still not...

    All seemingly good replies, pointing out that basically, that it is not worth the risk, as even if the Police do not have a strong presence where you live, in the event of a traffic accident, they can, and normally will be called....... As ever in this world, the final choice rests with the...

    Help! Double kickstand help

    Have you contacted the bike supplier/manufacturer as they may have one "waiting on the shelf" so to say. Also, send emails around to bike stand suppliers, mentioning your model, and perhaps supplying a few clear photos from various angle, detailing the clearances and problems. If you find...

    Thumb throttle?

    Would you not agree that its probably much safer to say "don't buy" if not already fitted? As we all here know how that "can" end up, if not already fitted...... regards for a great weekend. Andy

    Bosch Motor shutdown, Error 503, get you home only.

    A lot of good sense in your excellent post. The only point (which we may agree to differ on!) where I myself am not so happy with, is that I feel you are correct that Bosch do not want dongles or similar on their bikes, but the way they are going about it, simply lines their pockets with even...

    Bosch Motor shutdown, Error 503, get you home only.

    Think about this, if you are unwilling or unable (please be so kind as to tell us why) to pick out and detail fully/exactly, what you yourself apparently see as offensive here on Pedelec, and show us all clearly (maybe you really DO have a good valid point!), exactly what was the reason for this...

    Converting my Ridgeback hybrid.

    De-restricting an unregistered, uninsured, untaxed e-bike, is breaking the law as it now stands. If you will be riding on roads where the police patrol, and you exceed your allowed 15MPH, it is possible that someone in dark blue may notice....... That can get quite expensive. If you are involved...

    Its apparently the same way Trump tries to run the USA! Do what I say, not what I do! Also a single point of failure, as November in the USA will definitely show! Have a great weekend. Andy

    Bosch Motor shutdown, Error 503, get you home only.

    Speaking for myself, (but I am far from alone here) I find your own style of post offensive, when you accuse others of the same thing, but without mentioning exactly what was said and by who, or why its offensive! The its simply "Fake News" the way you do it! Try sticking to the TRUE facts, and...

    Wisper 805fe battery

    I do believe its a 5 volt signal, or lack of, from the brake levers, to the controller, that turns off motor drive when braking. Also used on some controllers, to light brake lights at the rear of the bike. Which is which I cannot say. Look here:- Andy
