• Warning!!

    Riding a tuned or deristricted EMTB is not a trivial offence and can have serious legal consequences. Also, many manufacturers can detect the use of a tuning device or deristricting method and may decline a repair under warranty if it was modified from the intended original specification. Deristricting EMTB's can also add increased loads for motors and batteries. Riding above the local law limit may reclassify the bike as a low-powered bike, requiring insurance, registration and a number plate.

    Be aware of your local country laws. Many laws prohibit use of modified EMTB's. It is your responsibility to check local laws. Ignoring it, has potential implications to trail access, and risk of prosecution in the event of an accident.

Can’t say it, but they are able to do whatever they want, we don’t OWN the motor, we just have a licence to use it, even thought we bought it🤬
Oh I know this and I am a massive advocate of right to repair and contribute to heling making things better in the other places im in. Right now the boxes are a sticky plaster and really there needs to be some proper hacking done on the SW but that needs some good people to start to take an interest.

However for now im looking at what is the best option today

The “sensor” is a reed switch, and if the small magnet is put at the exterior of the wheel, the speed is too fast passing the reed switch…?🤔

I thought it could be that passing magnet on the wheel might interfere with the true rim magnet pickup within the motor housing.
