Best place to buy Tongxin motors ?

emissions-free,

Sleep well and thanks for all your input. These forums are great for getting info on new products and ideas.

I have to admit that I have chosen to shy away from specially manufactured forks for the Brompton.

Regards

Jerry or anyone who might know:
do you know the price of a set of Brompton forks and where I could get a set? Do all the brompton's use the same style fork? Please excuse my ignorance of the Brompton, I'll have to do a bit of research on them.

Jerry,
Thanks for your comments. I don't know everything about e bikes but I have devoted a lot of time and effort to them, have lots of related experience and I'll do my best to give my honest opinion and ideas. I believe that e bikes should be much more widespread and I'd prefer to be able to get more people on them and to do that the prices have to come down quite a bit IMO. I think it's better to make a reasonable profit for the work you have actually put into providing it, rather than price it at a point where you can maximise profits.

Thanks Daniel,

I'll get a set sent to my dads and try to get them over here soon if I need to. They're not as expensive as I thought they might be.

Hi Paul (emissions-free)

I just wondered if you're any further forward with regard to selling/supplying a kit here in the UK?

I'm interested in a hub motor for a 20" front wheel with a axle width of no-more than 80mm

Thanks

In that case your limited to a 80mm Tongxin or a 75mm Crystalite 209 Motor.

What bike is it ? You should be able to spread the forks to 100mm if they are steel.

Hi Jerry,

Tis me Stuart with the alloy forked Dahon Mu

Had the front wheel off, it was fitted the wrong way round and found 80mm should be no-trouble for the forks
