Thanks, so no 'standard' fork sweeps ho hum ;( While the measurements suggested should be manageable, without any details on the sellers page to compare against it seems like 'tactical distance buying' might be the best option, especially if all other options are similarly lacking in specs (...

I would dearly like to upgrade my front brake to hydraulic disk. but my forks do not have the suitable mount, and are swept to position the front wheel away from the obstruction of the main frame. Google has presented me with a cheap fork replacement, but the sweep looks less pronounced than...

what metrics are of interest to you? whats you ebiking focus? are you interested in power input ratios between yourself and the motor/battery? your own fitnes progression? IF just out of interest i would suggest avoiding adding any distractions to your handlebars as every second spent...

Imho Nothing wrong in simply exploring taking ownership of something you have bought. It was the 1st thing i looked up on becoming an e-biker.. It turns out my bike is similar to op's in that a controller/display replacement would be a pita, and the dual voltage controllers which i find...

There was a recent ? in my feed at least emtb youtube at an expo showcasing motors which contained a few seconds of footage of a Prototype? motor-less flywheel bike.. no details beyond the ?inventors assertion of 10% of effort was diverted for use when needed uphill etc.. I would look it up...

FFS the same US pundits were suggesting Putin/russia would roll through Ukraine in a few weeks. Didnt the granny giving russian solders sunflower seeds to carry in their pockets so their corpses would be useful, give you an inkling of the people you are dismissing so readily?? F#ck Putin...

Not an engineer!, However having re-laced a rear hub motor into a new rim last year, I can honestly say the only tricky element in the process (after youtube preparation) was sourcing the correct size(length) spokes for the job (thank you amazon prime no quibble returns.. 3 x, it took me!.. )...

Welcome to 'the dark side' ;) manufacturers are very generous with their range projections, but you might be ok with the minimum assistance over 40 miles?? suck it and see.. Can you get replacement or supplementary batteries for your new bike without getting a mortgage? might be worth checking...

Ahh, all good things...

Try applying for a 'riders' policy? may go under a different name now but its an insurance policy aimed at someone who rides a number different bikes. iirc generally they only are interested in the largest most powerful bike you intend to ride for quotation purposes wink wink.. been a couple...

Specs on a sticker look very impressive. UK or EU supplier ? or did you import from China yourself?

Since Mr @Wisper Bikes has already popped into this thread to drop a like, I have to assume your on the right track? you might find this post interesting as it includes some pointers to stand options.. https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/centre-stand-options.46839/post-706644

Fwiw i recently fitted a twin leg single side centre stand as an aid to loading up the shopping etc, No drilling required it simply fitted through the existing hole used by the side stand it replaced. I opted for the sub £20 far east (via amazon) knock off rather than the £40 branded item, leg...

Im too lazy to pull out my kt-lcd pdf, but i do recall the settings for pas were not in particularly clear english, and had been garbled somewhat in translation or so i suspect. But Pas is not enabled out of the box so needs turning on.. and then i had to test each of the magnet config...

Converting a bike with a good kit is no more harder than changing a tyre and bolting on a new bottle cage with a bit extra cable management. (its a morning/ afternoon job ) The downside is the diy look, the upside is : 1) getting the best motor/battery etc combo for your needs 2) Significantly...

Hafords for sure is reported to suggest its time for a new bike as soon as a warranty period expires on an ebike with an issue, or even just in need of a new battery.. And it seems to me the more you spend on an e-bike, the less likely it will have a longer than warranty life, but im looking in...

So start a single thread and post the above explanation or similar as an intro and add links to your vids as you release them , not the vids themselves with no explanation. Posting vids without any explanation of why they might be of interest so folk watch them and think 'WTF!' is not gonna...

Should do with some pedal input from yourself as long as the gearing allows you to start.. I ride a conversion 250w rear hub drive bike, (see icon).. While my motor alone would not pull me up the steepest of hills round here I can ride up comfortably in a low gear providing some input without...

Hi n welcome, hope your new bike is great fun..

I understand the reluctance to loose the convenience of the dynamo fed lighting, but do you expect to ride the bike without electric assistance after conversion? if not since your carrying a battery anyway and the current lighting fed by the dynamo is not going to be a high drain, so your not...
