Welcome to ebikes and the forum.. I hope the bike is running well and its just information your looking for in the manual. Thing is there are lots of ebikes and while the gurus in here have a wide scope, no one is familiar with them all, and most of us have direct experience with our own...

Good luck @bob d, hope you have a ball getting the old girl back on the rd, Cant help with your specific bike, but if our pal @saneagle suggests its a lost cause, could be time for a cup of tea and sit down before you make any decisions.. Avoid the 48v battery tho while over-volting motors is...

'any vehicle' cover, has been extended to include cycles, so could extend to ebikes too? at the insurers discretion, if you have 6 hi end cars insured with the same insurer, and run a fleet at work perhaps, if your me with a £199 fully comp policy thanks to decades of no claims on a 28yr old...

And your right to question, as scrub that.. your probably covered by a comprehensive motor policy for 3rd party liability and legal cover if you borrow anyone elses ebike but not if ridding your own.. As your covered for any other vehicle usually and a cycle falls under that catagory

Anyone i would suggest, with any assets ,property, or ambition or expectation to obtain either is foolish not to purely on the basis of self interest . Many will be covered by comprehensive motor policies as long as they are ridding a legal vehicle. I would urge everyone ridding around on...

After fitting a KT controller to a bike i will admit i had it running at 22mph, and i think that bike could handle the roads at that speed ok and had good enough brakes to stop promptly. however after a couple of days and i had worked out the manual and i had it configured within the regs. It...

And i thought the 25m rise i have to deal with on my daily ride home warranted an ebike conversion. significantly shorter ride too ..

An apple airtag with its speaker removed is a good way to track a bike if it gets swiped by a mugger or thief, you can then think about it make phone calls and turn up mob handed to get your bike back, even call plod.. Aliexpress sent me a bike bell with an apple airtag sized hidden...

Overdue update, I have been busy and been visiting a few select rabbit warrens exploring many holes.. I have found a dedicated 24-72v 12v 10a 5v 2a ebike dc/dc psu for a tenner :). see below. ws2812 leds are a bad selection, i have decided to spend a further £20 on 10m of led neon rope red...

The Warning is simply a press release to boost the public opinion of plod, Not a crackdown of any sort. A real crack down would constitute a secret day or two of action watching and rounding up the suspects and Then on success issuing a press release..

£350 is far from the worst battery cost, and can be a good price for a battery but something like 20ah 48v (960w)with branded quality cells. not 48v 13ah.. (614w) with unknown cells imho.. (watt(hours) = volts x Amp(hours)) But non generic batteries cost more to package and produce so some...

New user discount eh? Cheers @guerney I am way out of touch,. Not really been china shopping for quite a few years..most of the portals ive used are now dead rip.. £9 for 2 bits of plastic and steel doodads from China? the bargain boat has well and truly sailed eh, now no one else makes...

I think its a good idea to have all my batteries using the same connection type, Currently im using both slotted bars connectors and gold pin connectors, with the modification of one battery and sled I can have all 3 using the same connector type. Providing me with spare/battery swap...

perhaps its a healthy sign leaving the 'poster design' job in the hands of the yts/intern rather than waste someone useful s time? shame they didnt update chat gpt prior to the ask tho.

Yikes if they mean 614w then thats a 48v 13ah battery for £350 built with no-name 'tesla-grade' cells?? i recently spent £250 on a 48v 17ah battery built with Samsung cells (allegedly) (every battery is a gamble to a degree. there is a premium cost to those batteries for sure.. Have you...

Id rather look like a neon dayglow tit than hear "sorry mate i didnt see you"

I find myself cracking the back brake just enough to register with the controller but not enough to engage the brakes when approaching any obstacles. only releasing and allowing motor assist when clear.

How much? got a linky? if it cuts a single plod short and saves you from a pompous earful could be worth the 'investment'

This is a well dead thread, kudos for searching etc, but its worth posting your own thread in this case imho, Very friendly folk in here. post pics of your display, and the controller if you can as that will help the gurus identify the systems your dealing with, and save them asking for them.. ..

Your not tempting me with a facepalm link not even with a razzel quality readers bike pic.. AS for the bike itself, no idea, but way too reminiscent of a Puch Maxi for my aesthetic liking. if browsing ads i would move on down the list.. Even if used by a granny that saddle is way to...
