    Looks great! Love the minimalist design. I am still trying to get the pedals off Of my bike. I am Slow. Trying to find a 250w/350w Tongsheng motor and it is difficult. I would like to know what to do when I shift and the S/A gear goes slack and the pedals spin around. Is it an adjustment of the...

    Yes, I will. It's great fun and extremely helpful to get help from you folks. For starters I want to find a good vendor in the US because I want to be able to return if there is a problem. Seems Amazon only has the higher wattage ones. I'm lookin at the 250/350w TS with either a Kettle or water...

    Yes, I will. It's just in case for the other bike that will stay stock.

    I thought about using a propane torch but could not find it in my apartment. Oh yes, I did try it with a large c clamp and it still did not budge. I will try these techniques you mentioned on the other bike which I like better anyway and the space between top and bottom tubes are roomier for a...

    I have two Raleigh bikes. I tried to remove the pin on one of them and I could not do it. I undid the bolt, applied a heat gun to expand the crank arm and pounded out the pin to no avail. I only succeeded in messing up the threads about three turns down so I filed it down in order to put back...

    I love that story! Very kool! Too bad he was stuck in that kind of thinking. Thanks for the link for the free book, "... Motorcycle Maintenance..." Now I need to find a premium quality aluminum beer can. I'm thinking Sapporo is pretty kool!

    Thank you and you guys are the best! That is very essential information that is of the invaluable kind that no one talks about or considers it appears. I can see it causing issues and I am surprised the diameter of the BB is not addressed like the width is by the manufacturers. It is not a...

    Very nice! Are all the bottom brackets the same diameter on the Raleighs and do they fit without any inner sleeves?

    I like the set you show. Very minimalist and not something you need to look at constantly I presume and as you say so maybe I don't need the big screen. I guess like driving a car you only need to glance at the speedometer and your "gas tank" once in a while. I wonder the difference in font size...

    So the eight-pin is essential. Do both the six-pin and the eight-pin provide for brakes or is it just the eight-pin, pal?

    Here is a review I just found of the TS250w posted on my birthday, 12/17/2018. Good review of earlier version. he says because of torque sensing the brake cutouts are not necessary, hmmm. What do you think folks? https://ebikechoices.com/tongsheng-tsdz2-review/

    Thank you. Your post is very clear. I do like the idea of a throttle just because I think it can be fun to use like it is a make-believe motorcycle, ahaha.
