Ok, sending the hub back again. Another $50 shipping charge. Apparently, the “exposed wires” is now “the motor/hall sensor was sheered from something on my end”. This sounds to me like CYA (cover you’re a**). Now, they’re saying that they didn’t send the hub to me that way.
I haven’t even gotten to ride it. I don’t see how the hall sensor would be in the middle of that black wire taped up. Isn’t that something that goes inside the hub? Sounds pretty important.
One more chance. If this hub isn’t working after I get it back, I’ll have to initiate some kind of chargeback/legal proceedings. This is pretty ridiculous.
