Frequenty asked questions


Will it fit my bike?
We can't tell you unless we know the model of your bike.
It is best to email some pictures of your bike, the general bike, the bottom bracket area and the handlebars to kits@wooshbikes.co.uk
Would we need any special tools to fit it other than usual bike tools?
You need a crank puller and bottom bracket tool. If you can remove the bottom bracket then you don't need to buy anything else.
You need some space on the handlebars to install the LCD and the thumb throttle if you buy our TSDZ2T.
You may also need a drill, 6.5mm drill bit if you need to install a couple of M5 rivnuts on the downtube to secure the battery cradle.
We don't support any reprogramming. It's outside your warranty.
What are the difference between torque sensing and cadence sensing?
The TSDZ2 has torque sensing like on many European made bikes. What that means is the motor senses how much force or torque you put on the pedals and adjusts the power correspondingly. This is great, you control the bike very much like a normal bike and it gives the impression that you have bionic legs.
If you had previously a cadence sensing bike, you need to be aware of a few things:
- keep your cadence high. Output power = torque * rotational speed, the higher your cadence, the more help you get from the motor.
- prepare to pedal harder on a torque sensing e-bike compared to a cadence sensing e-bike. The good points are your battery consumption is much lower and you keep your legs fit.
Can you price match?
No, but we do offer some discount when you buy a second unit.
How about guarantee?
Kits are not the same as bikes, which are supplied as complete items needing little or no intervention by the customer.
If we cannot fix a kit under warranty to you, we will offer you a refund.
Please note that this will not be a full refund.
It will be based upon the condition and age of the kit, the number of miles it has done and whether any of its component parts are missing. Please refer to our sales terms and conditions for details.
In some cases, faults are caused by the way the kit has been installed or misused (eg derestricted, despite our warnings) rather than by a manufacturing mistake within the kit itself. In those cases, we cannot cover the cost of repairs under warranty.

Be aware of the physical issues around the bottom bracket:
Like the BBS01B, the TSDZ2 will fit bottom brackets whose shell is 68mm or 73mm long.
However, the space between the motor's bottom bracket and the motor's housing is not enough to accomodate your cable guide.
Also, if your bike has bosses on the lower half of the bottom bracket shell, you may have to grind them down.
If your bike has one mounted under the bottom bracket shell, please email us a picture for advice.
Also, if your bike has a side kickstand mounted close to or right behind the bottom bracket, please email us a picture for advice.


Chainline:
Like the BBS01B, the TSDZ2 may move the chainline.
To find out the current chainline, measure the distance between the middle of the seat tube (it's also the middle of the bike) to the chainring's teeth.
It is commonly 50mm. The chainline of the TSDZ2 is 50.2mm.
A difference of 5mm or less won't affect your gear shift but if it is bigger, you may need a new chainring with offset. Please ask us for advice.
However, the space between the motor's bottom bracket and the motor's housing is not enough to accomodate your cable guide.


If you want to fit a double chainring:
The TSDZ2 will let you fit a 5-bolt 110mm BCD (bolt circle diameter) double chainring.
However, you must not fit a bigger ring than 44T. The TSDZ2 has 42T ring, maximum 95RPM. On bikes with cassette and 700C wheels, that is 30 mph.
A larger ring will increase stress and strain on the motor, you will strip the blue transmission gear between the motor spindle and the gearbox very quickly.
If you use a bigger ring than the supplied chainring (42T for the TSDZ2, 44T for the TSDZ8), we can't guarantee your motor.

Question: I've been looking at the specs and it states 250w however the controller is set to 15A and the battery is 48v.
16A and 48v would suggest a power much higher than 250w, can you clarify please?

The controller on the TSDZ2 is rated 10A continuous.
This has nothing to do with the manufacturers' power rating, if the manufacturers say 250W then that is what they expect the users to use it for on average.
If the user sticks to 25kph assist speed limit, on flat roads, he'll need around 200W of power, well within the capacity of the motor and the law.
Users are allowed to exceed the 250W for short periods of time when climimg hills and still under the 25kph. That is how the EN15194 standard is set.
Question: I notice that the motor is available from international sellers with a spec of 500W and 750W.
It's up to the suppliers to negotiate with the manufacturers what should be the rating of the product.

Question: Would the 250w motor give a lot less noticeable performance than the 500W/750W motor in terms of torque etc.?
No. The 48V controller is the same. Some dealers reprogram the controller, we don't. They are programmed by Tongsheng.
