    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I just got news that multiple complaints have been filed to financial regulators after apparently "milions" of people that use Robin Hood, the app that they've been using to do the transactions, have been blocked from using it without explanation.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Interesting developments. Two of the hedge funds have had to close their positions and take losses of $6 billion. The group of Redditors, Wallstreetbets, are now targeting other struggling companies that have been shorted by hedge funds. Elon Musk is cheering them on, as he himself has been the...

    Everything is suitable. It depends what you want. Lots of people on this forum use BBS** motors and seem to be very happy with them. Personally, I don't like them at all, so, for me, I'd say not suitable! I don't like the clunkiness and the frantic gear-changing all the time. I find a...

    Bafang BBS02 mid drive

    If you completed the journey on both bikes in the same time with the same pedal effort, the range should be more or less the same. If you complete the journey in less time on one bike, then that one should drain the battery faster. The next consideration is whether you're using the Bafang...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Did you read about the Redditors that have taken down a multi-billion dollar predatory hedge fund? The hedge fund had shorted Game Stop. The idea was to force the price down, make a profit and probably buy the stock at its artificially low price and maybe do a hostile takeover or profit again...

    Review MiRider One

    Racism didn't exist when my grandfther said that to me. Seeing as you like to be pragmatic, ask anybody that has been trading with Chinese suppliers whether they can trust their suppliers. I can remember just about every trader on this forum pulling out their hair when they saw the surprises in...

    It's fairly easy to make a battery case out of 3mm plywood, then cover it in the really thin firbreglass cloth before painting. Either a crank motor or hub motor would work. A hub-motor is better if you want to use your bike as general transport. A crank motor is better for off-road and...

    Help with SWXH and KT36 controller

    That's weird. In the index it says they're on page 37. I just looked in my library of manuals and found a later one that said they were on page 39. That didn't have them either. Thanks for the link.

    Is it possible to convert a ladies Dutch bike to electric

    you can see in the picture that it has the fixing points for a standard rack., so fitting a rack battery won't be a problem as long as you don't have the seat right down, which will push the battery further aft. Ideally, the battery should be as close to the seat and as low as it'll go. Though...

    compatible cycle2work donor bike for bafang

    Is there enough room in the triangle for the battery? It looks a bit tight on some of them. Don't forget that you need room to slide it on and off.

    Leon Cycles U.K. (NCM)

    I've met the owner and been out for meals with him, and I've been to his factory. He's definitely Chinese and so is his factory. He set up a distribution deal with Leisger. He told me that he chose the Leisger name, though that name has been around for quite a while. At the same time, he was...

    Battery voltage dropping far too low under test

    The BMS tripped at 30.1V (or higher), which isn't unusual. As I said 31v would be a better LVC for testing.

    Wheel nuts

    Why do you say that? I've never used anything else in 10 years. They're supplied as standard with all motors. They're stronger than stainless steel.

    Battery voltage dropping far too low under test

    Your battery tester should stop the test when it reaches your chosen LVC. I use 31v because there is very little charge between 31v and 30v. In no circumstances should you let it go further than 30v nor should you let it run with no limit and rely on the BMS switching off, otherwise you risk...

    Battery voltage dropping far too low under test

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding you. "The voltage dumps" is not a technical term and I have no idea what you mean by it unless you mean that it drops from 30v to 16v when the BMS switches off, which is what normally happens. 1. You don't seem to be understanding what I'm saying. Your tester is...
