    problem with display panel

    Check the connecting plugs/sockets are all pushed home firmly, which im sure you have done.. Check the manual for first time running instructions, many halfords bikes employ direct communication with the battery and controller, this may require a full charge of the battery, for...

    Folding bikes

    A Good ridding folding ebike that can be folded/unfolded stashed/ridden quickly and is a manageable mass when folded, is an ideal solution to joined up public transport exploitation. But is not a bargain basement option, so out of my range ;)

    Newbie dipping his toe into the world of Ebikes

    rear spokes on an e bike

    For £170 i would certainly have a go myself even if well outside my comfort zone.. When replacing spokes 1 at a time the worst calamity would be loosing a spoke nut in the wheel recess and that just takes a bit of shaking to resolve (as long as you keep track of the nut as it escapes..) but...

    Hub speeds

    Hi and welcome, Is it possible to return the kit? if so it might not be a bad idea? Im far from expert, just had my toes in the water a few months now. But according to the ad linked to your 500w motor can provide upto 22Nm of torque.. Watts measures the power put in, Torque is the measure...
