seakins Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Hi, I have a white KS16B that I have for sale for spares or repair. Bought it May 2016. The axle broke and I can't find a replacement to fix it. It snapped after rolling off a pavement onto the road, it didnt snap right off luckily so managed to catch myself and wheel before any damage was done. The shell is in very good condition, batteries hold the charge well, tyre was renewed a few months ago. The only problem is the axle. Not sure if this interests anyone so thought i'd put it up here before putting it on ebay. Cheers, Stuart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seakins Posted November 19, 2018 Author Share Posted November 19, 2018 Hi, It didn't snap off but more like it cracked. The pedals are still connected to it but if I was to stand on the pedals I think it would snap off, I didn't want to try this though. When it first happened I thought it was a pedal that cracked due to the way the pedal was sitting (my foot wasn't flat on the pedal anymore but more at an angle) but when I took the shell off to inspect it I found that it was the axle that is broken. I hope my explaination makes sense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobjai69 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Still available? Will you swap with a fully working high end custom built retro MTB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobjai69 Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Also happy to pay cash if necessary..wouldn't mind viewing close up images of the snapped/cracked part of the axle if possible..Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seakins Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 Hi Bobjai69, yes it is still available. I would pass up on the MTB thanks as I already have a load of them and another one would make me feel like a shop! I can certainly take photos of the wheel but if you want close ups of the axle them i'm affraid this can't happen as I would have to take the motor apart. I'm happy to take the motor out of the shell to get as close as possible to the axle but going the distance of taking apart the motor isn't something I'd like to try. If you pm me your email address I will send you a video of the movement in the axle i'm trying to describe. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobjai69 Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Been try to PM you for the past 24 hours but haven't been able to send any messages without being informed that I'm only allowed a message a day - when in fact I haven't sent any. Can admin help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seakins Posted December 13, 2018 Author Share Posted December 13, 2018 Cool, will do this weekend. Working horrid hours and stripping the wheel down at midnight isn't my idea of fun. I will send you an email now just so that you have my email address too. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
