Are you sure an inner tyre is needed ? The parts catalog has the follwoing items for the rear wheel :

SV30500 Tyre 130/60-13 Tubeless 1
SV30802 tube rear tire 1

In other words there is also an indication for being tubeless. In case it is still needed an ordinary inner tube for the 130/60-13 tire size should work I guess.

Just checked, great :)

Thank you Sylvain, apparently they don't have firm plans at the moment.


Regardless it could be practical to restore the shop for the customers or at least an email address for orders.I doubt it would cost a significant amount (vs. the inventory stored without any use).

To be honest I have never touched that encoder. You can try to lift the rear of the bike and try different things in the diag including reverse throttle if that is reversed as well.

You mentioned firmware update, you can try to go back to the original version if that fixes the problem. To this point if your battery is in proper shape the top speed should be more that 110 km/h indeed, with some versions close to 130 km/h.

Hi Thomas,


   That is a strange problem :) When you mention encoder, is that the throttle on the handlebar or the encoder on the rear wheel ?

Right, if you could ask them what is their plan for the upcoming period. I think Vectrix has valuable assets as the complete bikes, spare parts, the firmware source codes and the patent for the regenerative braking - just to name a few. 

Hi, last year I have ordered various items from the webshop, it was still fully functional. Now with the page gone I was wondering what happens to the inventory since there seems to be constant demand for parts from the people using the scooters.

Saving the site resources seems to be a good idea regardless, I will do the same.

Theoretically yes - I will know only when I see it working - a matching BMS firmware version will be needed. A converter cable is also required which was available from the Vectrix webshop but can be reproduced as well.

Overall it is not easy but doable. The net result would be a 3.3kW charger that is two times faster than any of the original Vectrix chargers.

These are fairly standard and could be found in many EV related webshops, I got mine from the Aliexpress. For the Vectrix the HK-J-144-23 version is the proper one (must be capable to provide the required 150 V voltage basically).

I will build in mine in the next few months and can share the details along the way (currently I am still on Runke V2).

That is the old charger, the most you can have is withthe Dugas firmware and software (http://dugasengineering-com.3dcartstores.com/Vectrix-Support_c_16.html) allowing you to set up your charger for Li-Ion. This would give you sufficient functionality - however as with all Li-Ion you must add BMS as well. The challenge is no BMS will be able to communicate to this charger not even the Vectrix ones.Accordingly the BMS should work independently from the charger.

In summary it is pretty complex with this charger. The golden Runke (only V2) is the good candidate or even the Elcon TC family which is the best.
