Hope you get this sorted out soon. Keep us posted.

Andre Mostert It's looking to be the display board. New board coming air freight tout suite :-) Never a dull moment

Robin Ridge well at least you getting one. I am finding that at the rate they are dropping wheels they are forgetting to also supply some spares so it can be dealt with locally. Hope you don't have to wait that long.

Andre Mostert Begode are what they are, this is why we buy from reputable dealers. In this case Ian has already arranged some spares from Begode Air Freight. They pull their hair out, so we don't have too - sorry Ian :-) Looking under the covers so-to-speak the arrangement under that display board is a bit hap-hazard, little piggy back boards and alike (a least you would think they could put things on straight), kind of hoping its the bluetooth or something, as opposed to what is keeping me upright. looks like something I would build - oh well nothing I've made has killed me yet.

Robin Ridge I hope it comes quick so you can get some riding in on that Master.

Any feedback on this one? Did you get it fixed or are you still waiting on parts?

Andre Mostert The latest is the wheel is going back to speedy feet for repair, we did try a fix at home but while it looked promising initially it has not fixed the problem.

Robin Ridge thanks for the update. Hope you can get it over to them and they can sort it out for you. So you back up and running.

Andre Mostert Looks like my wheel is back up and running, Andrew of Speedy Feet says they really only had to re-seat some boards (loose within the machine) and they fitted the parts Begode previously supplied. I watched a YouTube Video recently from "EUC Way of Life" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uf4U5ktBHDY where he is casting doubt to the connectors Begode have been using to make connections between boards and I think this may well be the source of some of the problems we are seeing with Begode wheels. The seniario is called "for want of a nail" :-) Now we just need some dry calm weather, no distractions or other things to think about "Xmas comes to mind", find some skills to ride a 50mph wheel - what was I thinking! I wonder how I'm going to adjust to those high footplate positions?

Robin Ridge that is awesome news Robin, I hope you can get out soon to give it a good test ride. I also hope those connectors stay connected.

Andre Mostert Interestingly these PCB headers, connectors are not suited to this application. I do not believe them to be gold plated, so they will be prone to tarnish in damp conditions (leading to open circuits). Further the pins are prone to harden with time losing the spring action necessary to keep the socket and pin in good contact. A variation of them was much in use in Tektronix Oscilloscopes in the 70's and 80's and led to many faults, in the equipment's later years. It appears that the wheels balancing circuitry is not so routed. The connectors being used for switching and monitoring via the display. This is fortunate because failure then would result in cut-outs without warning and we do not appear to be seeing this.I will be very watchful for reports of Begode cut-outs without warning, or apparent reason, especially if the wheel was later found to be working, or easily fixed without replacing a board.

Robin Ridge thanks for the feedback and yes that makes sense. If its not a connection that can hold up with day to day riding it will be good to make use of the SpeedyFeet MOT to get the wheel checked every few years. Or just do a check yourself if you have a nice spot to work on a wheel.
