I'll toss out the name NCM for bikes. They sell nationwide but have a location in BC I think.
We picked up a new Moscow+ and put over 1000km so far without issues, but purchased a used bike with 4500km on it and also have experienced no problems beyond the freewheel being worn (still rideable...
I ended up ordering a Dorado battery via Aijiu Power, 25ah using Samsung 50E 21700 cells. Aijiu and their rep Jenny have been fantastic about answering questions and providing me assurances about the cells they use and photos of the manufacturing process. There's another thread here about the...
Hey check out some threads where I ordered a battery from Aijiu Power, I am going to post a review of it when it arrives. But price is way less than any other vendor and they are using good Samsung cells. I also don't know about Leon UK but replacement batteries from Leon in Canada are available...
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...
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
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?
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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
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...
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...
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...
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...
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.
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...
