    UPP BATTERIES BANNED AND DANGEROUS

    UPP BATTERIES BANNED AND DANGEROUS

    Good to know. I had been looking at those. Think I'm going to build my own when mine dies.

    UPP BATTERIES BANNED AND DANGEROUS

    In fairness to the "Truth", UPP Batteries have not been "banned". It is one particular type of UPP battery covered by two different model numbers. All other UPP Batteries are not banned, and are still for sale. It appears that the headings in the Forum(s), and the verbiage in the news articles...

    Kindernay VII IGH and HYSEQ Onesie shifter

    They let thier Domain Name link expire. If they did not pay that bill, which is pretty inexpensive, they are most likely long gone and have no intention of coming back.

    I would love some suggestions for the right e-bike for me

    1. Get a Step Thru whatever you do. 2. Narrow your choices to a bike that's available and serviced by your local dealer. I presume you don't want to do your own diagnosing and servicing. 3. 80? Invest in elbow and knee pads.

    Shengyi hub motor connector question

    It can be accomplished with a new controller and a new matching display. What is your budget for making this modification? You are probably looking at $350-$400 for a decent torque sensing controller, compatible display, and wiring harness.

    Question..how many times do you get asked if the bike charges while you pedal?..

    First Question: Is that an ebike? Second Question: How fast will it go? Third Question: How far will it go? Fourth Question: Do you have to pedal? Never asked about regenerative braking

    Tubeless tire experiences

    I've used this Quick Change inner tube before. One piece, slides around the rim. It really works and you don't have to remove the front or rear wheel. Huffy makes it in 27.5" an other sizes as well. Changed my wife's flat tire in no time at all without removing the rear hub wheel. Schrader valve...

    Not asking, just making a point.

    I gotta say, it "seems" like I ride better if I'm "slightly" stoned. At least, it "seems" as though I am more graceful. I haven't done it often, and it could be just an illusion. The music in my headphones is definitely better.

    Bafang middrive not working

    Which Bafang Motor? Should be pretty easy to use the multimeter, read the manual on checking for continuity and DC current. watch a Youtube Video or two. Assuming your battery works, you will need to test that power is coming form the battery to the controller. I just had the same problem last...

    Not asking, just making a point.

    I do recall that the Terms of Service Agreement requires that we have a "thick skin" when interacting in the Forums.
