Well, with the rainy North East of England weather I am finding myself having to strip the PAS unit on the crank at least once a month to dry and clean the circuit board and sensors. My question then is quite simple. Can I short the connector from the controller to isolate the PAS at the...

Thanks for the info - sorry I took so long to see your reply. I will give this a try as soon as I am not using the bike - as it is used every day for commuting to and from work. I have the wiring diagram and can see the wires you refer to - which method of connection did you use and was all...

Can't offer any help - but have attached the wiring diagram you might find useful

Thanks for the reply. Both batteries are 36v. The external battery is rated at 13ah and the internal is rated at 11ah. Running with the internal only at the moment. I have also acquired the wiring diagram and cannot see why the both batteries will not register on the gauge when both installed...

This could still be brake related. My Gen2 was cutting out intermittently and would spring back to life after returning the throttle to rest and waiting a few seconds before accelerating away again. This would not happen all the time whilst riding the bike to work during the week and for...

Hello, My A2B generation 2 came with only the external battery fitted from the manufacturer. I have just fitted a second battery in the down tube of the bike and what a hassle it was to get the controller back in place and all the wires tucked away into such a cramped area. The problem I have...

That look so cool pdarnett, did you design it yourself? How do you set the amount of assist - is that something available on the Gen1 bikes? The Gen2 display is nice but very limited. I have two batteries on the bike - a frame and rear but can only get the display to show the battery level...

I must admit I like the look of your 53t chain ring without the guard - really, really nice. The PAS unit looks cluttered on mine compared to the clean lines of your set up. I have just purchased a 54t chain ring from Hilary Stone - he has a sale on at the moment - so should see a difference...

Hello Paul8bee. I too have had trouble with the PAS on the Metro after a particularly wet spell of weather. I use the bike every week day to commute 5.5 miles to work and back so I am only adding 11 miles a day which gets me two and half journeys on one charge. One day I started my commute and...

Thanks for the info agniusm. I have Googled "pedelec" and by jingo you are spot on. I now need to find out how to set this mode electronically on the bikes display to pre-set the function. Or, I need to find out if it is just a case of a little throttle adjusted to the power at the pedal that...

Hello, I am at the thick end of my Fifties having cycled all of my life around the beautiful hills and roads of Northumberland in the most northern part of England. I have decided to treat myself to an ebike and decided on the A2B Metro Generation 2. which I fell in love with as soon as I saw it...
