I don't follow him, but it came up on the youtube homepage, this same bellend now has a video where he runs a red light and crashed into a child on a pedestrian crossing (which is on the green man) :mad: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/hnyFy2f0hZU

It's carried a fair amount of stuff. Wouldn't do this everyday, but here's it loaded with 75kg of chicken food

A year on, over 2,200 miles on the bike now, it's been great fun!

Funnily enough I've got one of those sting ray bikes sat in my shed. A mate dropped it off, saying it "would make an amazing electric bike, you can do it for me!" I said at the time, might get a front wheel motor that would fit, but it would be a bit lacking in traction. Doesn't look a very...

This came up on youtube, right dogs dinner of a bike, and the wheel falls off lol

I've done this plenty of times with a hub motor, I'm sure london bridge will be fine

You'll be the slowest food delivery bike in town :D

40ah battery to ride in london? Is there an electricity shortage down there or something?

Don't know if this has been posted already, the government are looking at changing the limit to 500w...

Got the same display, mine starting losing the time after maybe 9mths of use, I'd assumed it was the internal battery, and haven't bothered doing anything with it yet

IMO better off with front and rear lights running off the main bike battery, so you've always got them and they've always got power. If you're using it on the roads/cyclepaths you need a front light that has a cut off to the light pattern so you don't dazzle everyone coming towards you

Hydraulic disc brakes are great, much better than mechanical disc, which are better than rim/V brakes. But my first electric conversion was on a 26" wheel bike with V brakes, that old thing has done almost 5,000 miles now. More powerful motor than you're wanting, plenty of hills, and I didn't...

Yep I mean changing down gears as you roll up to a junction. You might not need to actually brake, so I will pull on the levers enough to activate the sensors so I can pedal to get down some gears ready to take off again

I've ordered one of the same clearance schwinn bikes off ebay, still not been collected by dpd yet...... £98 inc delivery for a bike with hydraulic disc brakes! Defiantly worth fitting brake sensors; a) for safety b) you can use them as a clutch to change down gears

Fitted a 10A 48v-12v dc/dc convertor so I could fit some led lights running off the main battery, sourced from aliexpress. Lights up the dark nights!

I've had a few different rear lights on a few different ebike conversions, this is the best cheapo one I've found so far; Linkbest M9 https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003748098953.html Nice and bright without being a glare. Good quality, very visible from the sides too.

In the end bit the bullet and bought the replacement levers with integral switch, £50 a pop, but they do work well, they have a double pivot so they come on before the brakes are activated. Bought a couple of HIGO plug leads for a neat install

Cheers for the help from this forum, not just this thread but searching back through the archive of old threads. She's up and running but not quite finished yet. No brake sensors yet, but they will be soon. Once they're on I will do a lap round the bike and tidy up the wiring and cable ties...

Cheers for that, sorry I was meaning I've never used it at 36v, the wheel kit was separate to the controller and display (all bought from bms battery) So P1 is the display default, I'm not sure what that should be?

This is beyond my knowledge! It was a 36v kit but I'm running it at 48v, in a 20" front wheel
