    Q128 alternatives?

    That's a good point I'm beginning to think there is no point in changing, I thought that as it had been a few years things might have moved on and I was using something old and clunky but TBF I think I might just order another q128 and stick with that

    Q128 alternatives?

    To be fair it's not something I would give to an old person, they are quite tippy, not something that bothers me, as much to my wife's annoyance I'm constantly riding on its side on two wheels because it's fun, it's like anything you just have to be aware of it's limitations but it's allowed me...

    Q128 alternatives?

    It's an adaptation of a product from the early 80s , they were actually on tomorrow's world if you are old enough to remember it, I added a variable rear axle using bmx steering stems to hold it on so the axle is now behind the wheelchair bringing more weight in to the front wheel, removed the...

    Q128 alternatives?

    Forgot to mention I have 125mm between drop outs so can put spacers on for a 100mm front hub but unfortunately can't quite fit a rear hub on there. The more I say the more this sounds like a bodge job but it has done 5-8 miles daily for 4 or 5 years on rough terrain.

    Thanks to all for the help so far, It would have probably helped you if I had given you an image to begin with, so it will be my only form of propulsion so needs to be strong enough to withstand that, I want to use one of the 48v or 52v battery's I already have, it has to be 20 inch as it is v...

    Where to buy 48v battery

    The trike is run at walking speed for the vast majority of it's life so it's wound to 201 rpm to give me maximum torque with the best reliability, don't get me wrong, I do ride like a maniac at times, especially through shopping malls taking advantage of the fact no one likes to tell off a...

    Where to buy 48v battery

    Thanks for your help everyone. I'm currently running a 48v 17ah Chinese built battery that's done well for over 4 years. Is the performance from a more expensive British built battery likely to be better, I would only be able to afford a 13ah at those prices

    S-KU95 controller help

    We've found, or more like you have, I've just done as I was told, 4.7v in, zero on the throttle signal open or closed so I will order a new throttle today off Amazon, that will be with me tomorrow and fingers crossed it will be sorted.
