I think its a "judgement" call for anyone, when on what is an expensive e-bike motor, stuff is put together with sticky tape and/or glue, to me that is not quality. I take it as a warning to buy from a different manufacturer. I feel it shows intention to deceive, and to maximise profit. Some...

But apparently Hi-end on price according to some local Bosch owners here in Germany! After WW2 for many years in the UK (in the London area at least), a rubbish product could be called "Bosch" or "what a load of old Bosch" or simply "Rubbish Bosch".......though it was mostly written without the...

The bike professionals apparently hate it when a non professional knows more than they do! Seen it and heard it before. Also from plumbers, electricians and builders.....Nothing new!! I am glad for you that it went well... Andy

GREAT!!

Great topic, with plenty of good and useful information for anyone who wishes to use such a unit. I have learned a lot. Many years ago, before I had an e-bike, I used a roof rack mounted carrier and it tested my muscles out! So I put it on a small trailer I use when not towing the caravan, and...

If I understand the situation correctly, this false crossbar is used to make a ladies bike easier to attach to a transport frame on a rear tow hitch. If so, why are you looking for one that (seemingly must) carry the whole weight of the bike (minus battery of course)? Surely it is there just to...

Interesting, I wonder why that is, though on both of my bikes, there was/is no play up to now at least! So I never ever looked! regards Andy

That gives me the impression at least, that the bearings are adjustable for wear, just like on normal bikes. Is that correct? Andy

That is certainly a serious problem that needs to be sorted ASAP! regards Andy

That sounds really good. Did you manage to measure the battery voltage at the end of charging? If yes, please post here, thanks- Andy

Pictures please? Clear ones and good close ups!

Batteries for an RC Plane, are simply not holding enough energy for a bike. Even the best ones. You need at least a 36 volt, 10 AH or larger battery. The most energy density RC battery I could find was for 11.1 volt and 6.5 AH......So for a reasonable bike ride, with no overheating, you will...

I agree with you, you do have a problem here, sadly. Furthermore IMHO you are quite possibly, through incomplete knowledge, putting a child in danger. For bike usage, you need a single battery pack, with an adjustable BMS, to keep the maximum current well down in your case, matched with a...

Normally a Li-ion battery uses a numbers and letters code to describe the number of cells in series and in parallel. 2 letters and two digits. A conventional Li-ion 36 volt battery might have say 10S5P. Which indicates 10 cell banks in series = 36 volt nominal, and 5 in Parallel = a battery with...

Your question:- "How would I set the minimum discharge to 3.6v? " brings (sadly) into question, your basic knowledge and understanding of e-bike batteries! Can you please rephrase the question so that I can understand "where you are going!" One of your other posts also brought that into mind, I...

When you say "it charges OK", what are you basing your comments on? If its the charger green LED being lit, do not forget that LED has several different purposes:- 1) Charge finished - battery now fully charged and usable 2) Not charging - no current is being drawn, battery possibly defective 3)...

I was also completely wrong, as I thought that he was saying "Leaping", in his own inscrutable way! Sorry for misunderstanding him! Andy

Go with flow, but if you are lucky, the batteries are now rubbish and you get your money back!! Hopefully Andy

Very, very true! Some people blame it on spell checkers, but many do not even use them! And of course, the spell checker needs to be "checked!" Andy

Its mostly about your knowledge with regard to electronics and electrics, plus the right way to build and set up an e-bike. Basically your "background". If you are heavy into DIY (RC Planes!), and your toolkit has all the right bits, that should not be a problem. I assume that you have a...
