    I need help in identifying my very second hand e-bike

    I certainly did :) He had me send over photos of the connector to make sure I got just the right battery/polarity etc - great service! I do happen to have a Dremmel but it was not needed ;) - though my husband did have to solder one of the motor hall wires back to its connector which is...

    I need help in identifying my very second hand e-bike

    A little update: I found a battery seller on eBay in London who makes up batteries to order. He convinced me I would do well with a 24v 15 AH battery with his superior Boston cells that he would weld together for me (he talked my ear off!). Well, the battery arrived today, and after a bit of...

    I need help in identifying my very second hand e-bike

    Thank you, that is useful to know. I would love a trip to Southend on Sea but it's not practical, unfortunately. Just have to find a replacement battery!

    I need help in identifying my very second hand e-bike

    Sorry, I meant the measurements, not the power, as available space seems to be 7.3 x 10.7 .

    Hello Woosh. I haven't managed to find a 24v battery that fits the 7.3 x 10.7 space needed - do you happen to know what size the Woosh Gale took, as it looks very similar to mine?

    I need help in identifying my very second hand e-bike

    Great detailed information, thank you so much! What a lovely forum this is :) I may invest in a 36v battery then, and if it turns out it doesn't work then I will still have a decent battery for a better more decent bike!

    I need help in identifying my very second hand e-bike

    Ah, I was wondering if that would be safe to do or not. Yes I have thought about replacing the controller too, but as the motor is 24v, is there a risk of it getting overheated? Do I presume correctly that it is brushless as it has 8 wires coming from it?

    I need help in identifying my very second hand e-bike

    Thank you! I couldn't find any trace of Sustain Cycles apart from a few mentions on this website so I presume they have long since closed down. The man who sold it to me assured me the motor was working, but he was running a lead battery on it which naturally didn't last long. Luckily I only...

    I need help in identifying my very second hand e-bike

    Hi, I am very much a newbie to the electric bike scene so please excuse any ignorance here. I picked up what I presume is a rather old electric folding bike from a facebook buy and sell page. The seller had, in turn, bought it from a car boot sale in poor condition, and tried to restore it. It...
