eBike Motor Centre

Specialist repair facility eBike Motor Centre operates from Sandleheath Industrial Estate near Fordingbridge, focusing on mid-drive motors for electric bicycles.

The business began in 2018 when founder Peter Collard identified a lack of available parts for failed eBike motors beyond warranty. Originally trading as Performance Line Bearings, it evolved to address common issues such as bearing wear and water ingress in systems from major manufacturers.

Technicians handle diagnostics, repairs, and overhauls for motors including Bosch, Brose, Yamaha, Panasonic, Mahle, and Impulse models.They supply replacement bearings, seals, and internal components, often developing upgraded kits to strengthen vulnerable areas like clutches and crankshaft assemblies.

A postal service allows motors to be sent for assessment and return after work completes.

The centre holds accreditation for diagnostics on certain brands and serves as an official warranty partner for Brose in the UK and Ireland.

Emphasis remains on extending motor life through refurbishment rather than full replacement, supporting sustainability by reducing electronic waste. Global partnerships extend similar services through affiliated outlets worldwide.

The workshop stocks specialist tools and testing equipment to clear error codes and verify performance post-repair. Upgrades frequently include enhanced seals against dirt and moisture, along with higher-grade bearings for durability under demanding use.
