    Any knowledge of a UK outlet for 2 pin female plug used on Reention Dorado batteries

    I'm aware of Greenbikekit. Their pricing is ca. $4 per terminal plus ca.$8 p&p. for several items. via Aliexpress ca. $0.67 plus ca. $5 each p&p. Both subject to 20%vat So similar costs if I was to buy 5, but both end up costing £6 or £7 per terminal with an intrinsic value of a few pence...

    Reention Dorado rebuild

    Saneagle: " Surely, if you can get another 29,000km for less than £200, that's a good thing. " You seem very knowledgable. Would you tell me where I can buy a 48v battery in the format stated using 65 good quality cells? That would equate to £3 per 18650 cell with a free case and BMS and no...

    Reention Dorado rebuild

    The capacity of my Reention Dorado L505 48v 13Ah battery is down to about 50% of what it was when new, after 4 years and almost 29000km. I've drawn a blank (or worse -"send it to us and we'll have a look at it for £85") with three or four potential re-builders I have tried. Any suggestions anyone?

    bike mirrors

    I have a mirror on the down tube which gives excellent visibility during the half cycle that the right leg raised. The mirror is carefully placed so that it is not hit by my thigh during mounting/dismounting or my knee when pedalling. Just a quick glance down is enough to take in the state of...

    Disk brakes

    Another plus for Torx is the more limited range of sizes compared with Allen keys, where I almost never pick the correct size until the second or third attempt.

    Quick and simple MTB/Hybrid set up

    In order to fit your Reention Dorado battery you will have to have a frame with a downtube that will accomodate it. If you find such a bike I have a connector that I can let you have similar to that shown in post #6.

    UK or European source for Julet connectors

    Is there a UK or European supplier who offers an extensive range of Julet connectors. 1T4s are ubiquitous but I've been unable to locate an economic supplier of the 8pin to 8pin M/F conector with around 800mm od cable between them. In the past I have bought from e-bike technologies in Germany...

    DIY rivnut fitting kit

    £14 for a one off seems a lot to spend. I much prefer the OP's solution, which I have used in the past, though I would argue the bracket is unnecessary and I have used just a washer between the rivnut and the nut on the threaded bolt.

    NCM Milano throttle conversion?

    You can raise the power cut-off to ca. 35km/h and fit a throttle which will take you to the cut-off speed for under £10, of which £7 will be spent on the thumb throttle! Do try this before getting involved with an expensive new controller and the headaches associated with wiring. I have...
