Hi,
I bought an Ebike from china. Yes, a cheaply made bike. I should have listened to my wife and saved for a higher quality bike. Unfortunately the specs given out by this company was complete bogus. So let me start, first off the bike was to come to Toronto, it went to BC and it cost an arm and leg to get here. So when I finally got it (2 months later) I put it together and it looked pretty nice until I tried the brakes the first time..."ahhh no brakes". Then the regen light would come on and off over bumps. Ok, I'm thinking not bad that can be repaired(broken wire in loom). Awesome back on the road, so I thought. Rolling down the road like a boss, making a left the bike accelerated like a batt outta hell (nearly ran over a old lady and came close to a car). "Ohhhh no I got the lemon", so I slowly made it home. Put her on a stand and wanted to see where the hell was this short. Fiddling around I can see a nasty kink in the loom, this was the last time I would ever hear the sound of a cheap China controller. Great, controller is fried and the throttle no longer works. China said nope go fix it, same as paypal and Visa(long,long story made short). I am very lucky that I'm hard headed and I don't give up easily, most people would say "it's going on eBay"for parts(about 35km driven before it fried). So here we go, Alan from electric race technology hooked me up with a throttle,18mosfet controller, and cycle analysis. Bike is running now 3 months after I picked it up. Still some trouble setting up the cycle analysis, I have a li-on battery and dont know which I should select, And problems with the throttle(pulsing while riding). I know I have some bad cells in the battery so if you have a good link please send it my way.
Thanx Richard
