I converted my MTB with a Woosh rear hub kit, as I wanted to cycle to work but not have to shower on arrival. My commute is 7 miles / 30 mins, and on arrival a quick spray of deodorant does the job. Nobody in the office has complained yet!!

So, all had been running well for the last 3 months until I came to cycle to work last Thursday, and the display would not switch on. My initial thoughts were an issue with the display unit, the cable or the cradle / controller. Contacted Andy at Woosh, who put a display and cable in the post...

I have recently fitted the Woosh kit to my old Raleigh, and would recommend it. My thread on the build is at http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/woosh-xf08-cst-rear-hub-kit-on-2001-raleigh-stonefly.31517/ My daily commute is 7.5 miles each way, and on level 5 or 4 assist, I reckon I could...

Can you add me? CV8, Fishponds Road. Cheers.

Yes, it probably would. Either by removing a bit of the handlebar grip, or mounting it inboard of the brake / gearshift mechanism.

I went for the smaller of the 2 options at 13Ah. Certainly looks like it's capable of giving me a good range. Had a play around with the assist levels after cycling back from work. Put the bike in it's lowest gear, so I could spin the pedals for the pedal sensor, without providing any...

No problem, thanks for the info.

I see from the instructions and from pressing the top button, the the KM529 can display TRIP or ODO. However, I cannot find out or discover how to zero the trip distance. How is this done? Thanks.

So I've now cycled to work and back twice, the first time on Sunday afternoon to see how long it would take. Google maps shows cycling the 7.2 miles should take 38 mins, but I was able to do it in 30. On Sunday I kept the assist level on 3, but this morning I put it on 5, and then used 4 for...

Sunday afternoon was spent refitting the last few bits, connecting up all the wiring, and then trying to cable tie it up neatly. Really pleased with how it has turned out. Would like to thank Woosh, who have been very quick and helpful in answering all my questions. Excellent Customer Service...

Might be in an odd place, but the throttle has ended up on the LHS, slightly tucked under the display unit. I can reach it with my left thumb, but I'm not sure how much I will actually use it. Next job was fitting the hydraulic brake sensors, Initially, I was not sure on where the magnet...

Hi Woosh, Been looking at the best way to fit the hydraulic brake sensors to my brake levers. If I fit the sensor in the position shown in the picture below, can you clarify where I need to mount the small magnet in relation to it? Or due to the gap between the lever and the housing, would I...

Unfortunately, that won't work, as the gear shifters are part of the brake lever mechanism. From looking online, something like this might fit better, but it is still fairly large, and would need changing to a HIGO connector to connect to the Woosh kit. Any other ideas out there? I can't be...

The Reassembling Has Started Spent some time putting the bike together this evening, having spent yesterday evening removing the decidedly tatty stickers. Wheels are on, as is the battery and the new handlebar. A couple of problems identified tonight. I bought new brake and gear cables...

Bit Of A Dish Time to look at putting the rear wheel together. I needed a 3mm spacer to sit behind the 7 speed cassette, and I had to file 2 notches to account for the rivets holding the cassette together. Once the cassette was fitted, it was time to look at the fit of the wheel in the frame...

It's Riveting! First job was to fit the battery pack. Spent a while trying to find the best position, keeping the weight low, but trying to utilise the existing water bottle mounting points. Ended up fitting it as low as possible using the top water bottle fixing, so then drilled 2 holes above...

Not All BB Cassettes are Equal When I ordered the kit from Woosh, I opted for the left side pedal sensor, as I though it was a very neat looking piece of kit. I was a bit surprised when I saw it was hexagonal on the inside to fit on a square taper. Woosh assured me it was fine (being an updated...

The Build Begins So after asking lots of questions on this forum on eBikes, I eventually ordered a Woosh XF08 CST rear hub kit to convert my old Raleigh to use for commuting to work. Whilst waiting for the kit to arrive, the bike was stripped down, to give it a clean and check the condition...

Measured up last night, looks like I need 3mm. My LBS was closed yesterday, so will pop over on Thursday.

Thanks, I'll come back to you if my cycle store cannot help. Do you know what thickness spacer I need to fit behind the Shimano HG-41 7 speed cassette?
