    Bafang 350 watt BBS01 - could I sell it?

    I think the OP's BBS01 is not powerful enough for 11T at the rear for where he lives.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Have you heard of Matthew Elliott? he is the one who masterminded the AV referendum in 2011 for the conservatives. He's turned public opinion 27% in favour of AV to 36% against by the time the referendum took place. He's the man who is masterminding now the leave campaign. His tactic is simple...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    flud, I have just read that report that you mentioned. https://woodfordfunds.com/economic-impact-brexit-report/ It's pretty much middle of the road, and I broadly agree with its conclusions. Without getting into a specialist economists debate, I refer to a useful plot at the end of that report...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    flud, 9 out of 10 economists will tell you that Brexit is bad for the economy. They don't predict that we are about to go bust or anything like that, just slow growth until we sort ourselves out. That may be 10 years, probably more like a generation. Slow growth affects disproportionally the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    flud, I don't know where you've got your facts from, but our net contribution to the EU is a tiny 0.05% of our GDP, litterally a tiny drop compared to the economic power of the single market. Sure, the EU will lose one of its most important members and the EFTA countries have the most to gain...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    flud, you should visit our top universities, their research teams are all multi-national. I am sure we'll do well as a country whatever the outcome but I do think Brexiters are short-sighted.

    there are currently 2 gtech bikes on ebay. they don't seem to know much abut e-bikes. That may indicate that their market is first time buyers. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Gtech-Ebike-Sports-Electric-Bike-/191878654195...

    Hello Pedelecs! I'd be very appreciative of any advice on bike buying...

    woosh use 3 motors, the Petite has the Bafang SWX, good for up to riders up to 13st, then the Santana2 which has the Bafang SWX02 for riders up to 15st and Big Bear LS with Bafang BPM for riders over 15st. The OP weighs 10st, the Petite is perfect or Santana2 (good for big hills). The Big Bear...

    Batteries to correspond to Motor

    it's more a case of matching battery to the controller. The battery has to be able to supply enough current to support the controller without too much sagging. For example you have a 20A controller and a 10AH battery. When the controller pulls 20A from of your 10AH battery, you may see a 3V drop...

    Introducing the new Woosh Bermuda

    not for the foreseable future Tom but would you consider buying a tadpole and get it sent to Southend for conversion?

    Looking for a bike under £2k

    welcome to the forum, con2k. You are not supposed to have advice on a bike without the 15mph assist limiter for commuting. The simplest way to stay legal is to convert a fast rolling bike. You can get assist up to 16mph then pedal hard after that. edit: crossed with AQ's post.

    Error "06 info" on lcd?

    they are the three-legged chips that are bolted to the sides of the controller's metal casing. Don't worry about this too much. Just concentrate on fault finding.

    Error "06 info" on lcd?

    your motor seems OK. Now reconnect two of the 3 phase wires at a time, then switch on the LCD. You want to find out which combination(s) causes the LCD to show 06_info. If both green-blue and green-yellow cause the LCD to show the error, then the green FETs are blown. That's the idea.

    Installation Problems With My New Kit

    chain line is always a problem with any bike with derailleur. Concentrate on solving small problems first and take the bike out for some test rides. You only need to mind the top and bottom gears and be kind to them for the moment. I thinnk you have plenty of torque with a 250W unit, unless...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It seems to me that most of Brexiters are lashing out about anything and everything. They just want change. They probably don't care about the economy or anything else.

    unplug the motor cable from the controller and test the green/yellow/blue wires on the motor side.

    Introducing the new Woosh Bermuda

    There is much difference in feel. The Big Bear LS can't beat the Zephyr-B but I am not the judge of that.
