I screwed up , again, I finally received a set of 36 spokes and nipples (no spares) for the wheel i need to re-spoke. Rather than kill a perfectly good wheel for its rim i decided to try and remove the wobble in the damaged wheel. On fitting the new spokes i first noticed how damaged the...

If concerned about water damage ' borrow' some nail polish and paint/seal it with a few coats.

I had the exact same issue with my yosepower conversion kit, (otherwise its been GREAT!!) You can file/sand/dremil out the inner diameter a tad i did but even after doing so mine was still a little too grippy or large as its friction with the outer bit increased, which resulted with the sensor...

A recent browse of aliexpress revealed stretchy soft silicone overshoes for protecting feet and shoes from the rain, size 9s were less than a fiver but i didnt check pnp.. you should get a longer life from such things cycling as i guess there will be less sole wear than if walking?

So I opened up the controller bag, the controller just sits there, so currently is disturbed by battery removal etc. all connections looked good but i gave each one a push to encourage connection and while none gave any indication of moving something happened as the motor now runs without...

Cheers, will be doing a full cable check later, I spent a bit too long pottering in the garage this morning and have been catching up since. There is scope and a lil hope, for a connector issue however as the controller bag is squashed in above the battery sled where removing/replacing the...

Thanks for the tip @PC2017 i will indeed check the whole wire length all the way to the controller.. It would be great to find an easy to patch cable prob, or even a busted sensor needing a quick through hole pcb component swap out.. Not that particular vid no, thanks for the link.. but the...

Yes, the plug is well home, And a very tiny blemish/slice into the flex outer sleeve is just detectable in the 2nd pic below :( well it looks like damage to me?? I had greased up the cable entry to the hub in attempt to aid moisture sealing and protect the spring/coil protection from further...

Oh i will be checking 1st thing, And the whole reason for posting in the first place was to get such sage tips, and i will be very happy to eat each and every word of the following text too, if and when your proven correct.. But my recollection of the suspected incident nor my brief visual...

Considering @Nealh s above comment on the likelihood of requiring a cable replacement it seems expedient to amazon order a replacement in readiness and return it should it be surplus. However my search for 'Ebike hub motor replacement cable/flex' was fruitless. So Cutting one of these down to...

Tried it 3 times, 2x at the shops, and 1x after charging the battery at which point i googled the error, I wish i could say there was an element of snagging involved in the bump but my recollection is lacking in that respect and im doubtful, but will be happy to check. thanks for the ray of...

Pretty much what i expect to find.. youtube reveals it to be a bugger of a job too ;) One of the first things that registered with me on inspection of my kit on its arrival was the vulnerability of this aspect of a hub motor. The design with the cable exit within the span of the rear'forks'...

I had to wrestle the bike out of the rack at the supermarket after a later arrival parked a bit close, and in doing so i knocked the cable/hub nut against something on its way out. Attempting to pull away under battery power once loaded resulted in the motor cutting off after an initial burst...

After 2 x half arsed feeling my way in the dark ebike 'builds' ( 1 x straight forward conversion, 1 x rebuild) it will be good to see how someone who knows what they are doing does it with a fancy base bike to build on.

The 3 key values off the label are 24v 15a Maximum current, and 7a rated current. Its the Maximum current value thats used in the headline of ads... (So you have a 24v 15a controller) It looks like your headset/display is connected via the black 'waterproof' plug/socket(julet) while...

@PC2017 the first link probably has the same 'problem' as mine that @Saracen pointed out , the size is such that the indicators are onl;y an inch or 2 apart. Not an issue with the 2nd set tho.. And i did consider the buy 2 flip one idea but my limited experience with basic rf coms is they...

@AGS no need for more controllers but yes thats the idea, tho to scale upto that level Lots of power will need diverting from the batteries.. Yeah @StuartsProjects, i think your understanding runs deeper than mine.. But that sounds ok as when used as indicators im looking at significantly...

Cheers I appreciate the distinction between transformer and converter, in name and function, but to me they are both oblique black boxes ;) that work differently im just glad they work. On second look at your link I owe you an apology for not giving it a proper once over in the first...

Exactly @Saracen, you get it, with the right face of both my rear and front carry boxes flashing for a right signal and the left side of the bike flashing for the left signal there should be zero confusion unlike with the original 6-8cm long unit. .. @Bikes4two, I do hear what your saying...

How often do you charge? are you close to getting the 'expected' 500 charge cycles?? (does anyone get 500 or a 1000 charge cycles?? or is that just what they all say??) Granted a well placed "most" should have sat in my post, Not all 'intergral' batteries are a bad deal it seems, would you...
