    What should a 48v battery read on a multimeter when fully charged?

    Before you charge it make sure it fits. It should be at around 47-48v out the box and fully charged 54.6v. No need to treat a new battery any differently to your used ones. Charge till light on charger goes green, ride and enjoy. :)

    Best place to buy a bafang BBS02?

    You can get an adapter to fit the BBS02 to enable fitment of a nice 52t narrow/wide chainwheel, although it often throws your chainline out, due to lack of offset.

    Best place to buy a bafang BBS02?

    Yes, Eclipse are a well established firm with a decent reputation. Their batteries come from EM3ev and are very well constructed.

    Best place to buy a bafang BBS02?

    https://custombuilt-ebikes.co.uk/product/bafang-bbs02-750w-mid-drive-motor-colour-screen/ Unless you are fitting this motor to a folder or a bike with 20" wheels or smaller, I would not recommend a 52t chainwheel. 42/44t is prob. the ideal size to keep the motor spinning at an optimal speed. You...

    Looking for LiPo pouch cells or a ready made 36v cell pack to fit a silverfish case

    I told you it's a confusing world, no idea why they have 2 Ebay accounts, but YosePower are a trusted seller, so I would buy from ysbatteryuk.

    If your bike has no LCD display with speed indicator, then the sensor is not used.

    Looking for LiPo pouch cells or a ready made 36v cell pack to fit a silverfish case

    Welcome to the sometimes confusing world of ebikes, esp. when it comes to batteries. There is a huge variation in prices due to capacity, Ah, brand of cells and where you buy them. That 15 Ah YosePower battery does offer good value, they give an 18 month warranty and you can buy them shipped...

    Fatbike for commute or MTB recommendations up to £1000

    I didn't say the HD won't fit a fat bike, but you need the 100/120mm version. My Surly Moonlander has a 100mm wide BB, but I needed the 120mm HD to clear the chainstays.

    Fatbike for commute or MTB recommendations up to £1000

    If you have a standard 67/73mm HD it is very unlikely to fit any fat bike, you will need the 100/120mm version due to the wide BB. If you are looking to buy a new MTB bike, beware alot have small, single chainwheels and wide chainstays which will prevent the fitting of your motor. There are...

    Converting to belt drive

    If your bike shares the same frame, motor and rear hub as the belt model, then it's feasible that you could fit the sprockets and belt to your bike. I would try and find the part nos. from a Cube dealer. They are most likely supplied by Gates. https://www.gatescarbondrive.com/

    e scooters - a menace?

    This problem is not helped by the fact they are so available. Do the likes of Halfrauds and other retailers really think every punter they sell one to has access to private land? I don't think so, they don't give a sh#t, but they are the largest part of the problem. If I reflect on my younger...

    YosePower Battery Rack, could you make this work with Disc brakes somehow?

    It dpends where your caliper mounting is, if it's between the chain and seat stays, then that style of rack should fit. Post a photo of that area of your bike. This is the setup I mean.

    TopBikeKit ordering problem

    So what was the outcome of the email to and fro, did you have to give them your tax ref. no.? This information will be very useful to other people on the forum who are going to come up against the same problem and will save them time and delays with their orders. I'm assuming your order was over...

    48V rear rack mounted battery for YosePower 48V rear hub

    No, your hub will be fine with new controller and LCD. TBH, I don't think their new kits are as good as the old ones, I get the feeling they have downgraded a bit to keep prices keen, but there's not a lot of choice ATM. Alternative is to put a kit together from somewhere like Topbikekit in...

    Replacement controller for Wisper 705SE

    If you unplug the black 6 pin connector on the controller that runs up to handle bars, as VFR said, look for 36v on the black and red wires. If voltage is present reconnect then unplug display and look for same on waterproof plug coming out of multi connector. If you find 36v there, then the...
