    Tonsheng tsdz2 fitted to old Dawes hybrid

    Hi TJS. Welcome to the Madhouse. Is the plate that's in the way welded between the chain stays. If so, could it be drilled & bolted to the anchor bracket on the motor. I don't have any experience of this motor, but I am waiting on delivery of one.

    Noob conversion on a small saracen mantra

    I marked out a triangle of that size on paper & tried my HL battery on it. The battery is far too big. I think you will struggle to find a ready made battery that will fit in the triangle. If you are interested in my Kona Lanai Deluxe Frame I could swap the forks & bottom bracket over for you...

    Are good times just around the corner? It seems they may be!

    With the money you'll save on a new bike you'll be able to buy tender steaks. Steve

    Skidding on leaves

    The bumper crop of acorns may lead to huge squirrels, which may or may not be slippery!:confused: Steve.

    EBike Chains

    This chain is 1/8" single speed or geared hub only. Even with 7 or 8 speed block the gear change would be horrible with those deep plates. Also the argument that an average ebiker & motor only produce similar power to a top pro. rider is flawed because a top pro & his bike don't weigh anywhere...

    OK. So how do people with glasses and false teeth ride without mudguards

    Scooter Dog Is going at the same speed & stays clean. Maybe a dog seat on the handlebars & another dog in a backpack would be the answer:confused:. Steve

    Speed sensor on crank arm.

    Not wanting to buy a dongle is purely to save money. I just want to know what motors will work OK with the magnet on the crank. Loads of people must have tried this. It's such an obvious way to fool the display. All you need is a wired computer (With my BBS 02 wireless won't work) to show your...

    Speed sensor on crank arm.

    I don't have the bike yet. I just wanted some guidance, I'd rather not have to buy a dongle. Steve.

    Speed sensor on crank arm.

    I have read that this works on some bikes but not others. Does anybody know if it would fool the speed cutout on a 2017 Haibike sduro hard 7 Yamaha motor? or a 2017 Giant Dirt e 2 with Giant / Yamaha motor? I was told by the local Giant dealer that the Giant version of the motor was not easy to...

    11 speed shimano chain ring for BBS02

    Did you check the chain tension? When you bought your 11 speed chain & cassette did you buy an 11 speed mech & gear shifter to go with them? different speed mechs need different amounts of cable pull. When I first used my BBS02 the power delivery from standstill & starting to pedal again when...

    11 speed shimano chain ring for BBS02

    First question is the chain too short ? With the chain on the biggest rear sprocket, there should still be a noticeable S bend where the chain passes through the mech jockey wheels. With a full sus back end let the air out of the shock & check the chain tension through the full travel of the...

    Chain slipping of rear cog Kalkhoff Agatti

    Old school BMX snail cam adjuster would do the job. They come to fit a 10mm axle, I don't know what diameter your axle is, but an easy job to drill out to the right size. Unless you have a suitable projection on the front of the dropout for the adjuster to bear against, you will need to drill &...

    Axle on BPM front too thick for dropouts

    The ones d8veh recommends will come on a slow boat from China. If you are in a hurry, Screwfix have Dremel chainsaw sharpening bits. They only cost £2 odd for 3. Steve

    Tongsheng TSDZ2. Your experiences.

    I know that this unit had very mixed reviews when it first came out, but I would like to hear what owners feelings are now. Were all the early units 250w? Is the 350w model different? I seem to remember reading that the chain line is not good, but is it any worse than a BBS with standard...

    Rear hub kits

    I am looking for a rear hub motor in either a 27.5 or 700c wheel. The SWX02 sounds about right. I am surrounded by hills & I don't think the little 08 motor would be up to the task. Do you have any wheels in black? I also read that you have a Q128h kit in a test bike. Is that for sale? Finally...
