That's a great point about bike mechanics being mechanics and not necessarily familiar with electrical work. Bet this video is really helpful to Hyuhome bike owners, especially given the difference in wiring between the old and new displays (good on ya, Nick!)
That's an expensive bike Nick. I looked it up. Don't give up on pedaling around, it's still the most cost effective. Couple rides here in Spring, not much since because of temps. Curious: The failed display looks like traditional Grey LCD. What is the Blue display method? LCD displays don't tolerate extreme heat or cold well (personal experience)
@@danishnative9555 Hi Paul, expensive you say? I think not. When I was looking around for an E bike the cheapest from any shop round here was £2000! This one cost £750. Big risk buying it on Amazon without being able to try it, but I've been quite happy with it overall. Not sure about the display issue, its been out in fairly hot weather and the coldest was probably around 32 F! Don't know why the new ones blue but hey at least I got it working. I worked out it costs me about half a pence a mile to run, so it's probably paid for itself in the unused diesel I would have used in the car. I would think its great riding territory out in UT, but yes the extreme temperatures would be off-putting. 73 Nick
