Okay I am doing more research about the solution without the CA, with controller only: I understand that the torque sensor can be plugged into the Lishui (sold by Phoebe Liu) controller, so it is plug and play, but the assist is not great, so you have made a new firmware with different torque...

Thanks to the three of you, really valuable information. Regarding the solution without cycle analyst, unless I miss something may require: 1. to open the controller and remove the weatherproof substance to access the circuit to flash the firmware, okay looks feasible. 2. to "solder the...

Can you elaborate on the reasons why do the eRider fail (in layman's term)? Is this because the main battery pack (say 36v) will power the device which is, for example for the t17, operating between 5 and 15v? Thus it mains you need yet another device to reduce the voltage in a stable way (no...

Thank you HP, really good info. Love the photos of your bike and the bay, where I did try ebikes for the first time years ago on a trip to sausalito. So to recap I now need to get: 1. Either a controller with a torque sensing PAS connection 2. Either ANY controller with the cycle analyst...

Wow, this really helps me a lot, have you ordered from Phoebe Liu before?! There are A LOT of parts on this shop. It's a PITA to navigate aliexpress, I spent hours on it and have not found this shop (nor the torque sensors) before. Thank you. Any recommendation for the controller? Also, do I...

Hi All Been reading here for ages and will now take the plunge, still slightly confuse though so am looking for a little help from the pros. Have a 90's Marin steel to convert with the following use / constraints: - Commute (5mi each way), mostly flat, some red lights start and stop (London) -...

So you guys buy your kits on aliexpress? I find it difficult to identify the motors on there. I am not set on the G310, Just need a little help for commuting and pulling the trailer on flat (once launched, would not use much assist for start and stop, I can pull in slow gear with only human...

Hi All Looking for a trustworthy website to buy kits such as g310 and others for a build. I can get delivered in France, Luxembourg, UK but I really don't find much apart from ebikes.ca where do you buy your parts? Thanks a lot!

Yes I confirm it is 130mm, see photo: https://ibb.co/VJL08nz It came with a 7 speed Freewheel (in the 90s) and I replaced it with a modern wheel with OLD 135mm and 9 speed cassette hub. It's actually marked the frame a bit, I suspect from riding with the quick release not properly tighten once...

Thank you Motomech, I've been reading your messages a lot this week and I've learnt a lot. Your point on the difficulty to pedal with the motor and no battery is taken. Maybe then I'll just swap wheels as I will want to pedal without sometimes and I don't have room for two bikes in the flat...

Thanks both! I normally do my 5mi commute in 30 min with no motor. Pedalling at 12 - 15 mph and up to 19 mph in slight downhill. Now looking to cruise at 20 - 21 mph with the motor. Sometimes I will ride the bike without the battery so I'm trying to keep it light, no resistance is important and...

Hi All, Looking to get a rear hub for 10mi commute (5 mi each way) in London (down hill from Hampstead in the morning, back up in the evening). 26 in wheels, needs to be stealth and quiet and I will pedal along the motor, currently doing the commute on pedal only. I currently have a 9 speed...

Hi All, Been reading this forum for a while now pulling the trigger on a build. I plan to build something neat and stealth with battery and controller in paniers on a rack and small diameter hub to hide behind a 140mm disc. 500w seems to be max for this form factor. Quite a few motors could...
