    GSM Mid Motor Controller

    I like the look of that one, non in black in stock at the moment though, will have to consider it in the future. Motor is ordered so will be looking at all this gearing soon.

    GSM Mid Motor Controller

    I think 46t chainring will be too big for what I would need, I think for what I will do I need 42 or maybe smaller so to re-use the existing 42t chainring is this the sort of thing I need, or is there better...

    GSM Mid Motor Controller

    I wonder if that was the controller being a bit too abrupt with the initial acceleration amps, as I've an S06S which brings in the initial power more gently than a KT controller I have.

    GSM Mid Motor Controller

    AK I have, in fact it was partly you mentioning the GSM in the past that made me go looking for it earlier and I found it at Woosh. The forum didn't let me search GSM (too short). I came across an old thread talking about an internal controller and any other controller mentioned I was not sure...

    GSM Mid Motor Controller

    I've just spotted the 250w GSM mid motor on Woosh's website. Is says without controller. Is there a special mid motor controller needed? or could I use my usual KT controllers from PSWpower or BMSbattery ? If so what would be the max amps this motor can take at 36v for a short time setting off...

    26" wheel in a 27.5" frame

    I see you have the bike in your avatar. How does the bike handle off road stuff like in the background of your avatar or maybe a bit rougher?

    26" wheel in a 27.5" frame

    Anybody know if this bike is suitable for a BBSxx motor? I'm thinking of making an offroad emtb conversion and like the look of this one.

    UK - legality of thumb-throttles in DIY conversions

    So I've learned that throttles should not activate until the PAS is active which I did not know and have changed my bikes to this now. I am sure I had a setting where the throttle activated up to full cutoff speed when the pedals are turning but still operates at slow walking speed when pedals...

    PSWpower 20A Sine Wave Controller

    It may be getting the speed signal from a sensor inside the motor as well as the speed pulse signal, see if there is a thin white wire connected in the square connector block on the motor cable.

    Concerning mirrors...

    I tried these cheap copies like the Zefal Spin which is the smaller version of the Cyclops and I find it to be good. You can't make out exactly what is behind you but you get a good enough idea. It is held firm by opening the hinge connector part and stuffing a small bit of bluetack in there...

    ebike build from scratch

    Now added Bluetooth connected battery BMS management so I can now charge/discharge and use my lipo's like a 'normal' battery. Its a Neptune15 from www.speedict.com and I would highly recommend it to any battery builder who likes techy stuff. I will do a seperate review on this soon.

    ebike build from scratch

    I've settled on the smaller saddle bag for now. It just nicely holds 10s8ah Lipo's. Due to the weight I also added a shortened luggage strap pulled tight around the saddle metal rails to stop the bag swinging around, keeps it more solid and to stop the small straps snapping from the weight.

    Why a Bafang BBSxx programming cable is a worthy investment!

    Any links for recommended cables/suppliers of them?

    BMSBattery

    Is that £126 delivery for the motor built into a rim? If it is then how about buying a bare motor and getting it built in the UK ?

    Chain coming off?

    If the chain is falling off the front cog, how about trying one of these. https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1313.TR12.TRC2.A0.H0.Xchain+guide.TRS0&_nkw=chain+guide&_sacat=0 Works for me.

    Gravel Bikes

    I have been considering a similar idea myself lately. Planetx have some good looking gravel bikes, I like the London Road frame I built my previous bike with. http://www.planetx.co.uk/c/q/bikes/gravel-adventure-bikes Also Evans Pinnacle Arkose is another worth looking at...
