    8fun crank drive kit

    Just got myself a KTM TERAMO HS33 ROHLOFF with Magura hydraulic rim brakes and was thinking of a crank addition. Now I know the standard brake cutoff will not work and I will have to back off 7-8 gear and vise versa and there is a 500w48v BBS02 on ebay for £599 (way too much) but where would...

    Oxydrive Speed Sensor

    Already had cut it two years ago as it was too long. RED, BLACK and YELLOW Andrew has now responded, £25 (seems a tad steep) but will probably go for this original. Let me know anyway as this experiment will only cost a couple a quid. Worth me trying and feeding back just for that.

    Oxydrive Speed Sensor

    Yes, I was thinking the same, but most appear to be two wired which may be a standard reed switch. The oxydrive sensor is three wires which may well be a hall sensor.

    Oxydrive Speed Sensor

    My speed sensor need replacing, it works but I shortened it and the plastic loops for the ties to go through have snapped. Andrew is being sluggish with response for parts and I was wondering if anyone knew what else could be used. It's three wires, so could be a hall sensor, but not sure.

    Bottle Battery fault - Options

    Bit late to this thread, but I am relating this to my oxydrive kit on a Cube Alfine 11 and d8veh's article of repairing one of these battery packs. (1) The oxydrive controller is designed to cut out intermittently if it overheats or is trying to draw to much wattage. (2) Separate to this the BMS...

    Oxydrive Early Review

    I had firstly better return the apology as nearly 11 months is very poor in coming back. Although my condition has not worsened, after over a year with the oxydrive, I'm fairly certain the direct drive of the Panasonic or Bosch has the advantage and I am considering selling the bike in its...

    Oxydrive Early Review

    As I’ve done 200km, thought I would update this review with some practical implications of owning an Oxydrive. This is a very smooth and powerful system that doesn’t affect the look of the bike. The LCD display is clear and gives speed, PAS mode (1-5), wattage draw and battery remaining and...

    OXYDrive kit

    I actually have one up and running on the bicycle mentioned. Had to redo everything 50cycles did to fix it and tidy up the cabling, but first impressions are excellent. There is one or two minor design faults in my opinion which I have fed back, one of them was already in the process of being...

    OXYDrive kit

    Uxbridge too far for you? Have an Oxydrive fitted to a Cube Hooper pro Alfine 11 speed. Impressed so far, but I would fit it yourself. I didn't and have ended up starting from scratch and rebuilding the wheel. Done now and was going to post a review of sorts shortly.

    Oxygen & New Oxydrive System.

    I Have sorted the sensor out with a longer 127mm bottom bracket rather than the 118mm 50cycles put in. Due to the eccentric bottom bracket the sensor had to be the wrong way around and protroud a little further than intended. All looks OK now, however I hadn't considered the effect on wear to...

    Oxygen & New Oxydrive System.

    Oxydrive fitting Thought as much, paid good money for 50cyles to fit this. Don't think Oxygen Bikes would be too impressed with their partners. Will be taking this up with them. The shimano rotor is 6 rivets and I do have a spare on the original Alex Rim which is much better than the oxygen...

    Oxygen & New Oxydrive System.

    Oxydrive Just had this kit fitted to a Cube Hooper pro, which is the hybrid 11 speed alfine, comes to about 17kg, fitted by 50cycles, so far so good. A small query regarding your magnetic disc though, mine can be hand turned and the middle seems like a gripper type fitting. This is probably...
