    moped help

    Any small, independent motorcycle shop will also be worth a try as your brakes are very similar to older petrol mopeds, pit bikes and small motorcycles. Both brakes prob. just need a full strip, cleaning and reassembling and the cables checked, an easy job for a motorcycle mechanic. They will...

    Wisper 2014 705 classic - help required

    I agree, Wisper offer a good spares supply for their old bikes going back 10 years or so, and even when parts become unavailable, the bikes are easily and fairly cheaply converted to run KT controllers and displays to keep them going. i've bought 3 back from the dead so far and never have a...

    Cyclotricity Stealth Charger

    You need to post a clear photo of the charging port on the battery for anyone to advise on a suitable charger.

    Wisper 2014 705 classic - help required

    The hole for the plug in the top of controller compartment under the battery is in the wrong place to match the silverfish case, hence needing to enlarge the hole. I've not done this myself as I recelled the original Wisper case with a 5S10P soft pack, but it's an option if you don't feel able...

    Wisper 2014 705 classic - help required

    I've just refurbed one of these for a friend of mine, great bike. The silverfish case will fit in the frame cradle, but you may find the male pins in the battery base plate will not line up, meaning you will need to modify the aluminium plate under the mount for it to fit. Depending on your...

    Don't forget this bike prob. weighs at least 3 times that of your 24v one before you load anything on it.

    Ask E-rider for info about tyre pressures and chain replacement. You will need to remove the old indicator bulb to find which type you need.

    Help! battery mounting

    Be careful though, there are several different case types that all look very similar and the bases are all different and don't interchange. If you already have a battery, post some photos of the top, bottom and sides of the case and base.

    ERider moped Help

    As said, no need to charge after a short ride every time, you have a large capacity battery, but your bike will obviously use more power than a normal ebike due to weight and only running on throttle. I would go on 2 or 3 short rides of say 3-4 miles without charging, noting your combined...

    Yes, you are right, the IEC socket is wired positive to N and negative to L.

    Nice one Billy, great minds and all that, sounds like your on the case. Just take your time and double check polarity before you connect anything.

    my hub drive problems

    Do you mean the wire from the motor? If this is broken or damaged you will need a new motor and don't forget the torque arms and filing the dropouts.

    Hi Billy, got your message, I think your best way forward with this is to make up some patch leads to convert the battery connections to match the bike and charger. This will save you doing any work to the battery itself. How are your soldering skills? This lead will fit your battery discharge...

    Freego Controler?

    Glad to hear you are impressed with your "new" bike. It's a shame most manufacturers, inc. Freego fit such poor control systems to their bikes, it's the main reason hub drive bikes get such bad press and people are convinced to buy expensive mid drive machines that most do not need.

    Samsung - are we just paying for the name?

    Nice one Neah and Billy for keeping up with the latest cells coming on the scene. It does look as if we need to change our attitude of Chinese made cells esp. if they are starting to show decent results in trusted testing. I see Fogstar have the Molicel M35's back in stock, how do they stand up...

    Hopefully it will be with you soon Billy, that's quite a wait. At least the supplier has used the safe method of shipping on "The slow boat from China" rather than smuggling it onto a passenger aircraft labelled as "electrical goods"

    Yosepower hub kits.

    That's not a YosePower kit, it's a cheaper version with different controller with only one fixed level of PAS and cheap throttle/display. This is their kit with LCD display and 5 level PAS. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334066314673?hash=item4dc7e76db1:g:HvIAAOSwuYRg5A8j

    If you don't have the budget for a new branded TS mid drive bike, then find a bike to suit your requirements and fit the Tongsheng. Your only comprimise is the battery style factory. You have tried the form over function with the Insync and found it seriously lacking. Intergrated batteries deff...
