    Dishing, centering of wheel and drop out widening

    Yes the gaps look a lot bigger in the pictures then they really are. The non drive side I did mess up a bit but the axle is in properly. I did use a file to get the axle into the drop outs.

    Dishing, centering of wheel and drop out widening

    I think I will give the dishing a go. Do I remove all washers from the axle before doing this? Why has the wheel got different clearance from the top and bottom on the same side?

    Dishing, centering of wheel and drop out widening

    Measured the dropouts 135mm 10 speed cassette. Removed the washers and started again to see where i may have gone wrong. I forgot to take photos but i think i may have removed more material from the non drive side dropout to get the axle to fit. Hence the wheel more towards one side. See...

    Dishing, centering of wheel and drop out widening

    Appreciate the advice. I had never trued a wheel or replaced a spoke before. I did one last week, took a few hours but it is pretty simple, just need patience. I wouldnt mind giving the dishing a go with the wheel mounted in the bike. I think i will go back to the drawing board. I am going...

    Dishing, centering of wheel and drop out widening

    Its a 2014 Boardman MX Comp Hybrid, i havenever measured the dropouts but i assume they will be 135. Your 100% correct, adding washers to the non drive side did push the caliper away from the mount so i had to add 3mm washers behind the disc.

    Dishing, centering of wheel and drop out widening

    I should have mentioned it’s a cassette hub G020. The wheel is more towards the non drive side. I would have to loosen the non drive side spokes and tighten the drive side ones. What I’m wondering is what is an acceptable amount of dish? By how many mm?

    Dishing, centering of wheel and drop out widening

    I tried 3mm washers before the disc goes on and now it lines up perfectly. However the wheel is still not centred as I thought. Am I better of dishing it?

    Dishing, centering of wheel and drop out widening

    Hi guys To get the rear hub motor wheel to fit centrally in the frame I need to add 10mm washers to the non drive side. Firstly I’m pretty sure stretching the dropout 10mm on one side won’t cause the aluminium frame any issues right? Secondly doing the above moves the brake calliper away...

    Controller question

    This is the plug on the motor. I was just weighing up the options but will be getting the lcd3 I think. I don’t know if I want to go for the waterproof kit or the normal plugs where they can be cut and soldered to make the wires shorter and neater.

    Controller question

    They finally got back to me with a very simple. “This controller won’t work with your Bafang motor” With my limited knowledge. My wheel has a 9pin plug. I understand these are all standard so the kt controller should work with the lcd3 for example. Am I right?

    Hi guys I have seen a controller from pswpower. The cables look a bit different to similar controllers. Please see picture with the circle. What are the two pins for? Where are the power wires? Second photo is of a similar controller but has no 2 pin cable.

    Yes i picked it up a few days ago. I thought it was worth a punt. I think I have settled on a KT 17A controller, the one with the bigger fets. I just mneed to decide wether to go 36v or 48v battery. Have you decided on a battery and controller yet?
