Is there a way to quickly fix puncture with the Big ben. Some sort of patch or spray that would allow it to be fixed within minutes without removing the wheel? Maybe if there is way I could still try the big ben

Maybe I get the big ben plus and add a moped tube for better protection? http://www.mopeddivision.com/kenda-inner-tube-2-25-2-50-16/ Or maybe get a moped tyre instead? http://www.mopeddivision.com/shinko-sr714-2-25-x-16-moped-tire/

I bought the Big Apple Plus last year: https://www.schwalbe.com/gb/tour-reader/big-apple-plus.html And they are level 6 protection, the same as the Big Ben Plus: https://www.schwalbe.com/gb/tour-reader/big-ben-plus.html So I was thinking I may still have few flats there and there... although...

I used to use big ben as well as the hookworm. They both are supposed to handle weight better been but it's not as puncture resistant and it also have a shorter durability. Puncture is such a pain on the road I'd prefer to have something heavier but stronger. Any chance the moped tyre would...

Hello, I'm planning to build the ODK V3 bike: I'd like to have a rear motor, have a seat for passenger and me on it of course. So load is quite high. I'd guess easily over 150kg. I need to get a rim and tyre that can handle the load. I found some bmx rim...

hello, anyone tried these? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/18650-battery-holder-Cylindrical-cell-2-10-plastic-holder-18650-lithium-ion-battery-bracket-plastic-case/32729220653.html?spm=2114.13010208.99999999.262.k3plKT I may buy for my next purchase

on their website it's 305mm. they refuse to ship to uk...

Or what about some BMX steel seatpost? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/400mm-EXTRA-LONG-STEEL-SEAT-POST-25-4mm-DIAMETER-BLACK-MTB-BMX-ROAD-ETC-/261647323447?hash=item3ceb655137:m:m0rSBH4RdAM-9YyfXh6lwNw

That looks super heavy lol. There are some with larger wall thickness: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/25-4mm-1-inch-x-750mm-T304-stainless-steel-1-5mm-wall-tube-pipe-exhaust-repair-/111291248125?hash=item19e979adfd:g:mSUAAOSwv0tU~voE Couldn't 1.5mm work? I'd like to get strong but lightweight material!

I'd rather buy Kepler friction drive: https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=86961 - cheaper - lighter - part easily accessible if failure happen But friction drive isn't the best for UK weather...

Anyone tried it? https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/36V-350W-BeWo-Mid-Motor-Eletric-bicycles-conversion-kits/1514220_32233180102.html?spm=2114.12010615.0.0.rwhThJ Looks crap, but maybe it goes beyond look? Great weight

I realised the tube is in the US. Can I just get a stainless steel tube? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HIGH-GRADE-STAINLESS-STEEL-EXHAUST-TUBES-304-GRAD-PIPES-ALL-SIZES-AND-LENGTHS-/252268823537?var=551100584916&hash=item3abc64c3f1:m:mGd3Uu58LAaAUahFGyoP40Q 25.4 mm diameter and length as long as...

I found this one at 600mm. It's surely long enough? http://www.cycle-frames.com/bicycle-frame-tubing/NOVA-CRMO-25.4-TOP-TUBE-8-5-8-600.html

Thanks for all of these. I can make all watertight by using silicon gel. Or even some shrink wrap. however, for troubleshooting it's just a pain having to cut the wires to find out the part that failed. I'd like to have a simple and reliable waterproof connector allowing me to swap the part...

Maybe have found it: https://www.amazon.co.uk/RST-Suspension-Fork-Capa-Black/dp/B001CSMJ1M/ref=pd_bxgy_200_2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=WJNSCG5BZ15JV288ZPSS With this steerer tube: http://www.cycle-frames.com/bicycle-frame-tubing/NOVA-FORK-STEERER-AHEAD-320MM-25.4mm.html Problem now is that...

Maybe I should try marine grade heatshrink, are they advertised to be waterproof? any link? Not sure if longer heatshrink would really solve the problem because I park my bike all day outside. On heavy rain the wire can be submerged for long time and water just get in. My 108x throttle fail...

I agree I have many cheap parts... and connectors caused me enough grieve to have binned all of them and soldered all my small wires. Currently all my light, throttle, hall are soldered. It has advantages and disadvantages. Its definitely more reliable than any JST connectors I had so far...

Sorry I sent the wrong link. I didn't see it is an adapter. Couldn't that work? http://www.wiggle.co.uk/bbb-bhp-2021-stem-extender Otherwise I may have to consider a rigid fork.

Hello, I'm looking for equivalent connectors to the Higo's one: https://www.e-bike-technologies.de/index.php/en/connectors/higo/higo-mini-b-connectors In this shop, they cost about £4 per connector, so just a pair would cost £8. I'm planning to change ALL my bike connectors to reach...
