Hi I recently bought an Oset 16.0 36v (second hand) for my 7 yr old son. I've tried it out myself in the back garden but it goes quite slow (with power up full) up a fairly gentle slope (not much more than walking pace) with me on it (I'm about 80kg I guess). I've charged the batteries and they take charge ok. they are all reading 12.7 volts. Is that too low, i.e. are the batteries done? I guess they should all be reading about 13 v if they're in very good condition? Other than the batteries being low is there any reason the bike would go slow (chain seems to be ok). THere is some resistance when I push the bike; I can feel the poles of the motor; is that norm…

Hi All, Looking for some simple help and guidance on a Lipo Conversion. My son is very small, so I'm looking to save weight and increase range! Does anybody have a list of exactly what bits I'll need to oder from Hobbyking, to do the conversion? Understand that I'll need a balance charger and monitor/alarm system on the battery pack itself. But, what will we need in terms of connectors and the batteries themselves? Many thanks in advance! Scott

Did someone try bypassing the Relay, and directly connecting the wires together? My relay is bad, so I tried that on the Oset 24r, but unfortunately, the bike is not responding to throttle commands this way. Rest of the lights (battery indicator, 48v feeding the relay from the controller) work well.

Have just fitted some shimano slx hydraulic brakes to a 2015 16.0R. Well worth the purchase. When your buying try to get a 1000mm left hand lever. This will fit perfect on the back. Shortening the front pipe is then simple and can be done without the need to fully bleed them if your careful. Chain reaction cycles and bike-discount.de are about the cheapest. Also fitted a boost battery lithium battery. Easy to fit with all connectors and 7.2 kg lighter.

Hi there, looking to upgrade the batteries of my son 36v 16" oset, with Kelly controller. My main goal is range, so something to last a bit longer, rather than high discharge stuff at all costs. Was thinking about four of these https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-battery-5000mah-5s-20c-lipo-pack-xt-90.html?wrh_pdp=3 , two in series and two in parallel, to both reach 36v and get more amperage, but not sure if anything will blow up. And not sure if they can all be wired to charge together, and if total discharge is too high for the system. If that's the case I could consider just two 24v batteries connected in parallel, as my primary goal is increase r…

**Update - Boost Bikes battery serviced the battery at a cost of £135, after one charge the battery was worse than ever and the owner has basically told me tough luck - for a £900 battery after 2 1/2 years is very poor considering the original battery is still perfroming well** Howdy folks, Recently got my Oset and it came with the Boost Battery and the original, but I am disappointed with the Boost Battery range. When fully charged it seems to get to around 56v but the bike cuts out after what I think isn't long enough given the reviews I've read online. I measured the voltage and it still at 51v? If I measure the actual OSET 48v battery, it was still pr…

Hi all, Just replaced throttle on late 2013 model because previous throttle kept sticking. Now wondering if we are getting full power that should be available. When my lad tried in the past to pull a wheelie he had to pull on the handle bars like you would on a push bike as well as using full throttle, probably what caused throttle to be faulty. With the new throttle there is no improvement in the ability to pull front end up, this is with speed switch 100%, power dial on full and throttle response dial on full. My lad weighs approx 54kg. We have had the bike a few years and he has used it occasionally often commenting that it wasn't right and now thinking I should h…

Wasn't sure where to put this but thought some of you might be interested. Plus I pledged so I'm hoping they reach their $100,000 goal so I can get one of those Free-Riders at a $1,500 discount. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1511813482/kuberg-free-rider

We just picked up an OSET 16, and an OSET 20 yesterday. OSET 16 24V needs new batteries. Anyone have a good battery recommendation? Amazon has a bunch of 12v/14ah batteries or should I go through OSET? Charger was also having issues so I got a new one on order from Amazon, specs all match OEM charger.

Hi. I have installed a high tech custom lithium ion battery pack , 20 amp hour ( it's. for a 2014 20 Oset It runs all day and has impressive power. However when my boy is riding slowly it cuts out and there is massive engine braking. He then twists the throttle and a lag then boom it's off. It's like the engine cuts out ? Any ideas? Otherwise it's now perfect and he can ride all day just not slowly........

Hi, Here is my situation. Ive got a KTM exc 200 and a scorpa sy250 for myself and have until recently enjoyed the odd play in the woods on the scorpa. My start in trials was predominantly to make me a better enduro rider but i dont get enough time to do or be good at either so im fiarly basic levels of both. My son (7 yo) has a 50 cc quad bike that he is growing out of and doesnt have much interest in anymore. I had planned to get him a 50cc moto but then the local coucil put a big sign in the woods on ANY type of motorcycle will be conviscated. This is due to more scrotey kids on mx bikes im sure but i aint taking the risk. So im thinking, kill two birds with one stone…

Hi guys, this is my first post so hello from Northern Ireland. I have just bought a 2012 oset 16 for my young cub as all the MX tracks are closed and he needs something to keep him occupied while this lockdown is happening as he's driving me insane lol! Apparently the wee bike has been sitting unused for a year. I brought it home and charged it up for about 6 hours or so. All was good and I was surprised at the power delivery until the boy tried going up a steep hill. It just wouldn't pull him up. Its fine on a flat surface but absolutely useless on hills. My boy is 5 years old and 20kg in weight so surely this wee bike should be able to pull him no problem. …

Hi all. I have a 2017 Oset 24R and i would like to get more power from it. Any suggestions? I am not averse to ripping the entire motor and controller set up out and starting again. I would like more range, but definitely more torque. Thanks guys.
