That battery sound very technical. For me anyhow. I presume you made the battery yourself, as I do like the stealth look.

Looks good and subtle. Is the battery in the rear seat bag? What battery have you used?

Ok thanks. I will order the eBay one as it only for testing. Just got to decide on the battery now. 48v Q128H motor 17a controller. Would prefer not a physically too big battery, but a smaller one won’t have the power! I do like the idea of a rack one but think the balance of the bike will be...

Will the one listed above do the job? Do they have the 3 wires as per the throttle or need a special connector. I won’t bother ordering one from China !

Just a thought whilst I am waiting for the end of Chinese new year! They are still listed as 'packing' as we are into week 2 from order... The thought is, will I be able to test the kit without a thumb throttle? I do not want a throttle on the finished kit, PAS only, but think it may have been...

You are right, BMS and PSW Power have had my orders a week now and still only at the 'packing' stage. New Year getting in the way !

I do like the look of that, from what I can see. What size bottle did it all fit into. That is my preferred controller hiding place too.

Sounds good, I may give them a try.

That’s really useful thanks. I think I will go for them all the same size at 242mm. I’m not adverse to a bit of thread showing...

Great thanks for that. I haven't ordered yet but will order 36 spokes tomw at 244mm, or should I go 18 at 244 and 18 at 242?

I tried another and got very similar result. I think I will go for a 238mm spoke unless I am doing something wrong??

My rim has an E R D of 607mm. As the Q128C motor isn’t here yet would anyone know how to workout what size spokes I would need so I can get some delivered for when the motor arrives? This is my attempt but not confident!

They do look better. Cleaner look for a disc brake bike. How was the quality of the finish?

They look like different rims to the previous picture?

Yes, they have been 'quality checking' it now for 4 days !

Thanks. As the Q128C is not a large motor, I don't suppose that matters too much. Do you know the approx delivery times on the PSW power and the BMS orders?

Thats good. The same seller also does a rim specifically for electric bikes.. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/700c-622x19-E-BIKE-RIM-RODI-WEB-ELECTRIC-CYCLE-DEEP-SECTION-DISC-BRAKE-BLACK/391502410954?hash=item5b275cb4ca:m:moj5gg5azKvNxKFlE6BbG5g Something about the recess for the spokes ! Is it...

Thanks Dave. What do you think to the 'deep dish' one above as it is nearby for collection? Do either seem better to you?

Found this one, which is all black, schrader valve, double wall. It is 'deep dish', is that good? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HYBRID-BIKE-RIM-RODI-AIRLINE-PLUS-700c-622x19-DEEP-SECTION-WHEEL-RIM-36-SPOKE/202144234465?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=502132974936&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649

Thanks, looks favourite but just don’t like Presta valves. Good old car valves for me every time! Guess I’ll have to make do with a valve adapter..
