    What's happening at 50 Cycles?

    Yes and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it inherently. Businesses go bust for good reasons without malicious intent. And new enterprises should not be precluded It's just the system gets abused. And at the smaller end of the market it's more prevalent. To prevent "phoenxing" of...

    Which Conversion

    The xf07 I have overvolted with startling results The torque and speed from such a small motor at 48v is astonishing I do think this is a motor that can handle a bit more amps than most give it

    What's happening at 50 Cycles?

    Hiya. I get all that and wasnt aiming anything at you ! Its just I'm an investigator (or used to be) in a financial sphere rather than anything police related. If I was investigating this I'd have serious questions over the actions and timings of the directors of 50c. They may have acted...

    Orbea Range Extender battery

    I think it might be even worse ...... the website I read stated the range extender charges the main battery rather than being directly used by the motor system Which I can only assume adds another layer of inefficiency and losses

    What's happening at 50 Cycles?

    So my question to KSA and the IP in particular would be 1. What was the trading period agreed at the 24 jan 2019 CVA ? 2. Did 50c accept orders after that date ? If so why is that not wrongful trading and have KSA considered their duties to make a report on the company directors 3. And if ksa...

    battery

    Hello What you describe is pretty typical ( normal). The lcd is reading voltage at that moment which can fluctuate . For example, on a hill or in high PAS mode the amp draw can cause the voltage to lower (or sag).

    It's bloody new and broken!

    It's a 36v pack right ? It should read 42v when charged. Anything under 35 is pretty much discharged

    What's happening at 50 Cycles?

    I am fairly familiar with cva and other forms of insolvency What's odd about this is a CVA is way to continue trading over a fixed term by agreeing a reduced debt with the companies major creditors . The idea is to exit insolvency a renewed , solvent company This was agreed in Jan 2019...

    Which Mid drive

    Hi . What bike are you fitting it to ? Both systems have their quirks to fit to certain BB or cable runs. The single biggest difference is the ride will be totally different. Tongsheng has a torque sensor so the more effort you put in the more the systems adds. On a bafang you can set it...

    The actual navigation works from the devices inbuilt compass and gps signals. Its only the maps that need a connection. Unless, as has been well covered , you use an app or service that downloads and keeps the maps offline (as in saved on your phone. Hope this helps
