The Magura service centre is in the UK. I did my Bosch training there. What they do with the Bosch motors shouldn't be of any interest for us. You take your Bosch bike back to the dealer. the dealer sends the motor to the Magura service centre. Magura send a replacement motor to the dealer. The...

Who's ever sent a motor back to Germany? Most people would go to: https://www.performancelinebearings.com/

36v doesn't mean anything. It's just a reference for the speed. You can run on 100v if you want. It's the current that burns the motor.

The title says freehub, but direct drive motors are normally freewheel. Do you know the difference, or do you actually have a freehub motor? Either way, it's probably the back of your bottom gear rubbing on the motor. matbe something has got jammed in the gap or your bearings in the freewheel...

10 to 12 miles would be about right for a 5Ah battery. You should test it to see if you've been cheated. It can also happen if your LCD is set to 48v instead of 36v, so check that.

3-in-One oil is what you should use, not motor oil. Drip it in where the free-hub meets the main part of the motor. Try and get a good amount in...

Yellow and black is for two-wire brake switches. the red yellow and black is for a three-wire one (or two). There should be a picture with the wires labelled in the listing from where you bought it. Connect just the motor, LCD, battery and throttle for testing. Use only small amounts of...

You won't get one in the UK at a sensible price. there was someone recently selling rebranded kits at an extortionate price, but I can't remember the brand name. There's no problem buying from China. You just send a message with what you want and they send you an invoice. If your motor is...

Easiest way to get more power and speed is to swap the battery and controller for 48v ones, which will give a 30% increase in both. Look at your controller to see how many amps it gives and use the same for your 48v. The motor will manage that OK as long as you don't let it go too slow up steep...

No - just a front one.

The only type worth getting are the parallelogram type, like the Suntour NCX or Thudbuster. When I tried a demo bike with the NCX, I literally thought I was riding a full suspension bike. I was so impressed by it, that as soon as I got off the bike, I looked at the frame to see what type of...

The biggest risk is the bike packing up for whatever reason. That should take considerably more consideration than the type of gears or the details of the power characteristics when buying a 5 year old electric bike with no guarantee. Anecdotally, Bosch batteries are easiest to deal with and...

Don't waste time and effort. Just do the measurements.

You need to measure the battery's voltage as soon as you take it off the charger. that will give a big clue as to where your problem might be. measure it again after you bike starts cutting out. When the display goes off at the same time as the cut-out occurs, it means that the voltage from the...

The thing that looks like an end plate is the peg.

No. The nuts have to be tight. You need an extra washer.

They're rivets. You lever out the other end. There's a peg holding it in that comes out with it if you lever it enough.

If it's a magnet disc one, you can use any of them, though probably best not to use any with 12 magnets: https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l2632&_nkw=pedal+sensor&_sacat=7294 The torque sensor is here...

You have a sensorless motor and special connector, which limits your choice of controllers or you'd have to cut the motor connector off and solder all the wires. That's probably a PAS connector. Avoid any sensor with 12 magnets. 5, 8 or 10 would all be OK.
