    Frame Snapped

    Bike replaced under warranty last week. Fingers crossed this one lasts longer than the last one. Looks like the controller and display have been changed. Same otherwise. Offered to take the old bike myself to the local distribtion point to save the company shipping (both ways). About and...

    Battery charger says "shorted"

    Got a new battery and the Grin Satiator says 'shorted' sometimes when I plug it in to charge. It's one of those batteries with a BMS that requires a bump to get started, so when I 'force start' the charge, it charges normally and works normally otherwise. Anyone have any experience with this...

    Replacing the ebike

    Thinking of replacing the Mukkpet Ninja with a Ride1up Revv1. Anyone with experience w/ the Revv1?

    Frame Snapped

    I can't believe how lucky I am that it didn't crack the top tube at the same time. I could have easily been hit by a car in a crash like that.

    Frame Snapped

    Weight limit of the bike is 330lbs. I'm 165 so no issue there.

    Frame Snapped

    That would make sense, but it's actually snapped in front of that cut out by about 1/2 inch.

    Frame Snapped

    The boucyness is from the frame brake. Maybe I should have said it got springy feeling in unusual and sudden ways. I was on paved road. Just the usual bumps from patches and the like. No crashes. Mukkpet Ninja.

    Frame Snapped

    Riding to work and suddently things got way too bouncy! About 6mo old. About 1500km on paved roads. Seems aluminium may not be a good choice for bike frames. Anyone else seeing this happen?

    Motor controller and display

    I've got a X056-AXD001 controller w/ a LCD-M6C display. The controller is compatible with 48V nominal bikes and the display says that it can be programmed to limit the top speed to 100k/h (60mph). I've done some reading and it seems like the top speed for a 48V bike with a 750W motor is about...

    Uneven break pad wear :-/

    Morning all. Thought I would show some pics of the brake job I did yesterday and see what ya'll think. I've noticed that the brake pads aren't wearing even. I think there's two issues. First, the pad is too far out on the brake disk. If you look at the disk you can see that there's about...

    Reflectors covered by warranty?

    Thanks for all the responses! Lots of great suggestions. I get that "wear" items are not warranty items. I don't see reflectors as a "wear" item. IMO, if putting your feet on the pedals can rip off the reflectors, your pedals are bad, which should be a warranty item.

    LiOn battery draw tester

    Anyone find something more turnkey? Was looking at the ET5410a+ or the KP184. The primary purpose will be to load test my ebike batteries (15Ah, 48V nominal) to confirm they are within spec. But I also have 12V lipo car batteries and other misc batteries and having a way to easily test their...
