Is it just a mobility scooter with a top on. Saw something similar last week with an old man in it

 

[tommie]

Grease??

Perhaps you're right there. How do I do that? What grease should I use?

 

[tommie]

Depends what you have there, mid-drive or hub.
Something like AeroShell grease possibly.

Bit more noisy than in your first videos that`s all.

Do I just take it apart and grease any cogs therein?

Ok Hub,
prob some more knowledgeable soul like d8 could shed some more light on the innards of that one.

You seem to always come across electric vehicles in the park. That one is so cute. I wonder if that can handle off road with high jumping heavy dirt tracks.

MS.

We're all bone idle cheaters around here.

It's a 250w Oxydrive kit motor, if that info helps. Is it a big job and a big risk if I give it a go myself?

I'll wait for now, for more experienced advice and guidance..

Look at this one.

Surely that's a Mr Magoomobile?

Queue buster in the shopping centre.. especially with some old codger in it that can't drive.

I had a look at those lately when in desperation to get something covered. "If I could accept a lowly 8mph top speed and a few laughs, how much would one of those be" I asked myself

£5,500. Err, no. I'll just keep getting wet. You don't even get ICE in it

I'm not so sure it's the hub. My oxydrive controller makes a terrible racket similar to that at very low speed in mode 2 or 3 but is ok at higher speed.
If you do suspect the hub remove the six M5/6's and it should quite easily pull a apart, clean out any old black treacle and re-grease mobil or shell Areogrease are good.
Whilst at it check the side plate bearing for wear & play.

After another good ride and a good listen, I'm inclined to suspect the same Nealh. It tends to only make a racket going up steep hills. Especially when I press the throttle.

I reckon that would be a recipe for disaster SW. Unless you take the doors off and do the splits while driving it at least.


By the way I looked up a milk float in my desperation too, damn. Still need a license. What's a guy gotta do to get a roof on something without holding a license XD

Big gap in the market there. All you
entrepreneurs reading, get on it
