Sorry... thread name should me Motor/controller failure...

The Mistral also has throttle control. I've had mine now for approx 3 weeks and I really like it. I also wouldnt worry about having to pedal it without the motor unless you are going on long distance cycles.

LOL. Already tested and my battery didnt blow up!

Hi, I have just recently purchased a Mistral, and I have noticed that on top of the battery there is a little round button, which is beside what looks like 3 small lights. I cant be sure about the led lights, it is just a guess. Basically, I am curious as to what this button is and what it...

Here is what it says on their FAQ section of the website: Q. Do you use Suzhou Bafang motors? A. Yes, but for all the technically minded forum types out there, the SB brushless motor I now get supplied is the QSWXB as I got complaints regarding noise, especially under load, from customers...

Just out of curiosity, how do you derestrict the bike from topping out at 15mph? Anyhow, I cycle a regular MTB at the moment to work and I am looking seriously at the Mistral. The top speed of 15 mph wouldnt bother me too much, as I dont realy think I'd be able to safely go any faster, but I'd...
