    PSWPower - which 48v G70 battery - or neither?

    Now I've got two KT controlled bikes, the next step is 48v rather than 36v. I've been looking at PSW's Hailong G70 batteries, mainly because the brackets have more fixing holes and seem to offer more flexibility in fitting in the restricted space in the frame triangle. Cell types and capacities...

    New KT Display

    Browsing Topbikekit I've come across a new display:- https://topbikekit.com/2024-new-kttf01-lcd-display-24v36v48v-with-5vusb-p-1325.html?zenid=4fgmho6l5t9nla46an11i71hn4 Has anyone got one of these yet? It is a very compact design, with a colour screen, USB port and apparently waterproof. I'm...

    Yose Power 250w. motor with KT upgrade - first impressions and a question

    About 20 months ago I fitted one of my bikes with a Yose Power 250w. rear cassette hub kit. Not satisfied with the rather crude operation from the YJT 15A controller, I fitted a Lishui 18A controller that Yose supply with their 350w kits, which was a big improvement. However, I have been...

    KT sine wave controllers - are they all "torque simulation"?

    My apologies if this has been answered before, but after searching here and elsewhere I'm a bit confused - not difficult! My hybrid has a Yose Power 250w. rear hub kit, which I "upgraded" with their 36v. "350w." 18A. controller. I'm generally pleased with the performance but after reading...

    KT LCD-3 and LCD-5 displays - differences?

    My hybrid currently has a Yose Power 250w. rear motor paired with a Yose Power (Lishui) 18A controller and C500 display. I'm contemplating upgrading to a KT TS06S "torque simulation" 15A controller from Top Bike Kits, along with the necessary cables and display. I've been reading the manuals...

    Hydraulic Brake Sensor wiring - 2 to 3 pin?

    My apologies if this has been asked before, but I can't find anything with a quick search. I'm musing over upgrading one of my Yose Power fitted bikes with a KT controller and display, mainly to try out the "Torque Simulation", but also have the option to go 48V. at some point. Looking at...

    Hailong HL1 36v Batteries - on/off switch - yes or no?

    I have three bikes kitted out with Yose Power 36v kits, and until recently they have shared one battery - because I can only ride one bike at once! The battery is a 36v 13Ah HL1, with the 5 gold round pins. https://www.yosepower.co.uk/products/36v13ah-hl-i-down-tube-lithium-ion-e-bike-battery...

    Improving the Oxford Safety Wing thing

    I've had a few close passes on the road lately, so using inspiration from posts by @guerney I've bought one of these. As it comes, IMO it has several shortcomings:- The flimsy plastic bracket doesn't seem robust enough to last long and is intended to be fitted to the chain-stay or seat-stay...

    Yosepower Rear Hub Motor Comparison Test

    I've now converted three bikes using Yosepower rear hub motors and been able to make some comparisons. They are:- AKM95RX RC 250w. cassette 700c. wheel. Yosepower claim 25Km/h top speed (with a speed-limited 15A controller) and 58Nm torque. AKM95RX RC 350w. cassette 26" wheel. Yosepower claim...

    Rear torque arms for Carrera and Pendleton

    Having bought a cheap Pendleton Brooke to convert for my wife, I discovered that the rear aluminium dropouts looked a bit shallow to fit a rear hub motor - particularly on the forward edge. I had resigned myself to fitting a front motor until I discovered these on ebay:- Carrera Ebike Torque...

    Which Front Hub Motor?

    I recently bought this on ebay to convert for my wife:- It was only £35.00 and is in excellent condition. Apart from adjusting the brakes it is good to go but I will probably replace the slightly rusty chain. I have a Yosepower Lishui C500 display and 15A controller integrated into a slider...

    Yose 250w. rear hub motor with Lishui 350w. controller?

    HI, Finally joined after lurking for a while as a visitor! I've just bought a Yose 36v. 250w rear motor kit (cassette) and in the process of fitting. I bought the 250w. kit because it had black spokes to match my front wheel. I would have preferred the 350w kit but that has silver spokes. I...
