    no he didn't. I've seen the emails. He can order one, and the price is $0.82, there is no minimum order.. We're not a Bosch retailer, and we don't sell to the public. We can get one just as easily as Stu can, its not hard. However I'd used my common sense and try the UK suppliers before...

    Bosch bearings

    Stu. We are very helpful to customers who are nice and work with us. I'm afraid our willingness to help (ie save you a $58.00) delivery charge goes out of the window, when you email us asking for support and then immediately come on here saying we're not helping. If you want support, handle...

    Bosch bearings

    If I was struggling to find a part for a Bosch drive, there are two things I'd do. 1) post the exact details of the bearing up on here, so the collective wisdom and time of you guys on here could help him find the part. 2) I'd be phoning a couple of the key Bosch dealers in the UK to see if...

    Bosch bearings

    This just isn't true. I've seen emails to Artstu from a bearing supplier saying they will sell him one for $0.82 The problem is he's not been able to find a supplier in the UK, but as you'll see from his post above: This appears to be his first effort to actually contact a Bosch dealer, and...

    What help do you need? According to the email I've now seen you've been given a price and you have all the details? I'm not sure what support you are now looking for?

    Ok - I've now been forwarded the emails showing that you've found a place that can supply the bearings you need. So I hope you can draw a line under this mater.

    Bosch bearings

    Because at the start I was told by Bosch that it wasn't replaceable. Since then you and I have both discovered it is a simple part to replace.

    Bosch bearings

    Most eBike customers don't read this form. Most shops have actually stopped reading this forum. So I'm trying to help clear up this debate so people can see whats happened. I would hope most people realise that bearings wear out.... and can see that had this bike not been tuned, it would...

    Bosch bearings

    Yes, because I suspect they would have gone to a shop and bought a bearing. Or the bike would have been warrantable because it wouldn't have been being used with a tuning device. Just to be clear. A bearing has worn out, that's all. However, it appears from Artstu's post above that he's not...

    Bosch bearings

    Which offer haven't I honored that is appropriate now we know its just a simple replacement bearing that is needed. The offers I made, have all not been needed because its possible to simply replace the bearing. Had a new drive been needed then my offers would have been relevant. So I...

    Bosch bearings

    Trex... even Bosch themselves would have done this for free. Had the bike not been used with a tuning device, however it was, so now Artsu just has to pay for the bearing himself.

    I wasn't suggesting its not impossible to hide a motor. I was suggesting its I thought it was impossible for a crank drive motor to drive the rear wheel if the cranks aren't turning. I've ridden and playing with a lot of this "hidden" systems, they are very funky, but they drive the BB axle...

    but has the one you're struggling to find actually worn out or are you just replacing it whilst the drive is apart?

    This is such a joke, and you guys should know better than most. If its crank driven... the cranks need to be going around to drive the rear wheel!!! so in order for this to be working it has to be a hub drive, with a button throttle that the bike happens to have landed on, and then you have...

    Bosch bearings

    surely on an eBike the one thing you do want is a bit of spin ;)

    Bosch bearings

    now I'm going to take issue at that because I hate spin. so here are the facts behind the statement so you can see its not spin. M&P Cycles used to be a HUGE bike shop in the 90s, I remember because I used to buy from them for my mountain bike. They sold the cycle shop part of their business...

    Bosch bearings

    no problem at all, its part of what we're trying to do to help people. In all honestly we should have foreseen the problems with M&P and not sold them bikes in the first place. They have been nothing but trouble, and its lesson we learnt very on in our dealing with KTM. That mistake won't be...
