    Disc rotor bolts

    A wide rubber band can aid a poor fitting bit in a chewed up screw head when sandwiched between the 2 metal pieces, on occasion doubling up the rubber layers can help too.. Failing that a snapped junior hacksaw blade can be used to cut a blade slot, the rubber band can help the gip here too...

    Error 6

    A quick google suggests a battery under voltage condition.. google for "Ebike M5 lcd error codes" its the display unit that decodes and display the errors so its the disoplay that details the relevant codes, dbl check your bike brand support site for lcd manuals in case custom f/w and codes...

    ADO A20 F

    Is the display a new unit supplied with the new controller ? If original with branded f/w loaded it may not link correctly with a generic control box. Something is very wrong with your throttle and or its connections, i suggest disconnecting all 3 connections and concentrate on pas input...

    Suggested kit for conversion

    Fwiw 2 things i didnt consider properly pre convesion, 1) brakes my rim brakes while adequate for my use could be better and do need more regular attention due to block wear. 2) Comfort.. with e-power you will not need to rise out of the saddle every so often and if like me your backside will...

    Pretty sure the 250w hub will have plenty of 'OOMPH' for you. and if you do need more a dual voltage controller upgrade and a 48v battery should give you circa 30% more torque and speed, and remain within the regs (with speed cap applied)

    Wheel change on 2014 bike

    Rebuilding a wheel with a new rim is no longer the dark art thanks to lots n lots of 10,imute+ youtube how-to vids.. Yes you will screw up and have to restart at least once , missing a hole or not ;) but the tools needed are minimal and empty front forks make an adequate balancing jig using...

    Hex ratchet driver for 15mm ring spanner

    Not exactly the same but i would argue more versatile are the 3x 10mm-1/4", 13mm-3/8", and 19mm-1/2" square drive adaptors, you only need a 1/4" to hex drive socket to be satisfied and be equipped. yes you carry 1x mor 10g? socket, But more importantly the home stash of tools is 2 useful bits...

    I went for the rear wheel option. Better traction, and no risk of front wheel spin .. I found the conversion was no more tricky than a rear tyre exchange with extra bolt on bits and cable management, yose are generous with cable lengths so lots of cable management and tucking away.. ( a fair...

    Yose power

    Pretty sure my kit included a 13ah battery but its been on the bike coming up 2 trouble free years - had an initial hic-cup with the pas sensor sorted with an email to support and a brief exchange - not the best support but not the worst either. The pas/speed control was a bit of a hurdle to...

    warning about ENERPROF.DE / ENERDAN battery&accesories

    Hi @tomtom81 Moving forward, drop the AI assistance for the time being. its more divisive than productive. The collective wisdom found in here is sufficient to identify the problems if any (TLDR - not disbelieving you) and present them in a clear language with qualifying details based on real...

    Halfords & Freego

    Seems like you have 2 choices, Buy a new bike as per the wishes of halfords.. or invest some time on you-tube vids and spend half an hour giving the bike a once over yourself. At least you know where to come if you hit a snag.

    Not an expert but when it comes to the regs.. Official UK Motor rating is the only metric relevant no mater how its marketed in other regions. and woosh have the paperwork for their motors, my standard kit rear hub drive can expend upto and over 1000w but its rated and stamped 250w A throttle...
