    Cheap Panniers etc. From Lidl

    Yeah, me too. Just picked up a set of pannier bags for my Cyclone-KMX from Lidl, seem OK for £14.99, obviously not the best but you cant argue at the price :-). Just need to sort out a rack now, anything will be better than its current configuration. Cheers, Ballparkcy

    KMX + Cyclone chain problem

    The picture is not all that clear...sorry. The chain passes through a chain-tube which passes through the front frame-cross member..The cable tie just stops the tube from moving, not exactly high tech, but that's how it is designed by KMX. Strange design but seems to work very well. I...

    KMX[Cyclone] and Watt's up meter

    Hi all, Forgot to mention I thought it a good idea to also visually mesaure the battery consumption, load etc. Anyway, I have a watt's up meter arriving shortly. Can anyone confirm that it is a matter of simply connecting the source to the batteries + and - and then the load off to the...

    KMX + Cyclone chain problem

    Finally had time to fit a KORE tensioner! Anyway, it has seemed to correct the problem, no more chain derailing although I have only been a short distance. Hopefully if the weather improves I might take it out to see if I can exhaust the batteries completely! and maybe record the mission on...

    KMX + Cyclone chain problem

    Hi everyone, This is my first post on the forum so go easy on me. Sorry it's a long boring techie one :) Through a lot of inspiration I have decided to build a e-trike for some recreational fun at weekends. Having a very tight budget I ended up with a KMX ST class 2nd hand [barely used]...
