I have just purchased my first electric bike through Ebay.

This was advertised as a 'Non-Runner' due to the fact that it cuts out and I'm hoping it won't be too much of a problem to rectify.

I have now fully charged it and taken it out for a test ride and sure enough it cuts out on full throttle.

If I switch it off and back on again it will run until I open the throttle fully, and the problem repeats itself.

I have since found out that should I place this on the stand, with the rear wheel off the floor the problem does not occur, but as soon as I put it back on the floor with any weight on it, including the weight of the bike, then the problem repeats itself.

Can anyone please advise?

Unfortunately, I am unable to say what make and model this is as there are no stickers on it to indicate the manufacturer.

Maybe someone can give me some help in this direction also?
