ELECTRIC BICYCLE MOTOR RIM

Genuine replacement motor rim for our MTX electric gearless rear hub motors, supplied already laced to housing.

Replacing the motor rim is often the most cost-effective repair when:

• The rim is buckled or damaged
• Too many spokes have failed and re-lacing and truing the wheel is costly
• Magnets have slipped, chipped or failed

Note: A new stator or disc side case is not included. Refer to photos or reach out to if any further information is required before purchase

INSTALLATION

This motor rim should be installed by a qualified professional as it requires your existing motor stator to be swapped accross into the new housing. If you’re unsure at any stage, contact us before proceeding—we’re happy to help. Damage caused during handling or installation is not covered by warranty. If any issues are noticed on receipt, you must contact us immediately before installation.

The old motor stator/core is typically easy to remove using basic tools e.g. an allen key (not supplied). General removal and installation ino the new casing guidance is below:

1. Remove the small silver Allen-key perimeter bolts from the disc side only of your old motor.
2. Press/knock out the old stator by dropping the motor onto its axle on the opposite side of the removed bolts, onto a solid piece of wood (or equivalent) on the floor. Use momentum and body weight.
3. The stator is magnetically retained and should pop out of the old housing along with the motor's disc side plate. Lift it out carefully, resting your knee on the housing.
4. Note the number and position of any thin washers on either side of your stator and transfer them as well. Sometimes these may have fallen into the old housing during removal. Please check and ensure to include them.
5. Inspect your old motor stator thoroughly, including winding and hall sensor (check for damages or looseness) before reusing it.

If everything checks out:

1. Carefully present the stator into the housing, keeping it perfectly straight.
2. Extreme caution: the stator will be forcefully pulled into position by magnetic force—keep fingers and objects clear.
3. Ensure the stator is fully seated before tightening the perimeter bolts. Do not overtighten or strip the bolts.
4. If resistance is felt or alignment seems off, remove the stator and repeat the process until correct.
5. Once tightened, check that there are no gaps between the motor side cover and the new motor housing, and that all perimeter bolts are evenly and securely tightened. The stator and casing must sit perfectly flush—otherwise rubbing and damage to the stator or motor housing may occur during operation. Damage caused by incorrect installation is not covered by warranty. Please take care to complete this step correctly.
