    Walk mode

    No. Walk mode is a separate mode where you can walk beside the bike and it'll trot along at 4-6km/hr. You usually need to hold a button while walking the bike and not all bikes have a walk mode (I have a NCM bike not an Lectric). Fun tip: When I had to ride my bike beside someone walking I was...

    Advise needed again please.

    I have a couple folding bikes and haven't needed to do anything special when having brake/shifter cables replaced. The bike shop just used standard cables and techniques. Might depend on your bike but I think they'd avoid requiring special parts

    et.Cycle??

    They are indeed. I believe on the Leon's and Et.Cycle sites in the About Us section they mention the links between them and NCM.

    Charging. Do you charge on the bike or take the battery off to charge it?

    We take our batteries off to charge them as the bikes are stored in a cold area and we want the batteries warm in sub-zero weather. I'd be interested to learn if most people charge up with the battery on the bike or off the bike?

    How I bypassed the speed restriction on my NCM 500W/48V Moscow Plus 29er.

    I was hoping there would be some interest, lol. It helps keep me motivated. I'll post a thread on the power switch since it's done already and then start another when I my GPS module arrives for the 2nd project. I'll have a peek at the complexity of dealing with that sensor module and decide...

    How I bypassed the speed restriction on my NCM 500W/48V Moscow Plus 29er.

    I'll start a new thread if I have much more to post on the wiring of the L7/C7 displays, but I will say that the wiring diagram posted in the german photo is a bit misleading. The part crossed out on the left is from the perspective of the female connector based on the diagram but the...

    Are Biktrix and VoltBike batteries interchangeable?

    I have 3 batteries now all from NCM and have noticed differences in all three regarding how the power button and battery management system work, I need to collect some notes and post them here. What I have noticed is that for one of the new batteries (like <2 months old), there's a state it can...

    How I bypassed the speed restriction on my NCM 500W/48V Moscow Plus 29er.

    John, my project(s) are a little less speed oriented, I too am very happy with the speed of the stock display. I also don't want to void my warranty so instead of cutting any wires or opening any of the electronics I have a cable that I can disconnect the display and place this cable in between...

    Dehawk Dorado+ Discharge Rate

    OMG John, I knew you had a couple batteries but I had no idea you were a collector, lol! I'm envious! That trick for the shorter batteries will go into the vault too in case I see the shorter ones anywhere at a bargain. I am just about to have a 4th battery but my son and I share them across...

    Multiple chargers on one power point.

    Most chargers are well under 200watts power (more like 150watts). Widgets has done all the maths but basically you are clear to plug lots of them into a wall outlet. Even the 5A charger is only like <300watts so you can plug several in without issue

    How I bypassed the speed restriction on my NCM 500W/48V Moscow Plus 29er.

    Hi I am doing some experimenting with the NCM C7 display. There's a German site where they've downloaded new settings to the display and overcome the speed limitations. I am not interested in that so much as some other experiments I am looking into. The german site has this image...

    Leon Cycle Canada 16ah Battery for Moscow Plus

    No I get it, you prefer another company do the leg work and take the risk and are willing to pay a premium for that service and provide a warranty too, I get that and understand. I am honestly similar about large purchases from un-known vendors regardless of country. I just don't want people to...

    Reention Dorado 48V 25Ah 29Ah&36V 30Ah (505L) Replacement Battery for eBikes Surface 604,NCM,Rize,Magnum,Aventon

    I've been in touch with Jenny and she walked me though checking space and what connectors can be ordered. Just to help any NCM or Amego owners, I can confirm that for my NCM Moscow+ there is ample room above the stock 16ah battery for the larger battery pack. Likewise my son's Amego Elevate...

    Dehawk Dorado+ Discharge Rate

    Assuming the battery management system is good (and I have no reason to suspect otherwise), it will have a maximum discharge rate that should be appropriate for the battery specs. You should be able to safely "try"using it and if it works then great. But if you are exceeding the maximum...

    Known Issues & Problems with NCM Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    Leon hasn't replied at all? That's surprising, for me I had an issue with damage from shipping and they got back to me in ~6hrs. I went through email ([email protected]) and filled in the web "contact us" form.

    Leon Cycle Canada 16ah Battery for Moscow Plus

    You realize your entire bike and pretty much every part on it was manufactured in China right? I have no issue ordering from China but battery packs are a tough one because of the concern about what cells you are getting. But in the case of the battery Fred is talking about I am ordering one...

    Multiple Pumps

    Nice modification, I see decathlon sells a similar thing to convert a hose to dual types of valves. https://www.decathlon.ca/en/bike-pumps/1006-130-universal-pump-head.html

    CDC now says the fully vaccinated can go unmasked!

    We'll be wearing our masks indoors until we reach some level of country-wide herd immunity or general "all clear" signal for everyone to stop. (Note Canada not the US) Even so I hope people will wear masks if they get a cold or flu in the future.
