Hi. I've been reading a bit/lot here lately, but I can't find answers to all my questions.
My energy is running low atm, so I need a bike with it's own energy to get me around. I've go 3 bikes and wanna convert one of them rather than buying another, don't care which one is converted.
Trek Superfly 100 carbon FS 29er with a wide BB and press fit bearings.
Salsa road bike 10sp carbon fork with BSA BB, haven't measured yet but I hope it's 68mm
Giant XTC 26 hardtail 10sp with an 86.5mm BB
In Norway hand throttle is not legal and 250w/25kmh max. I just wanna get around and have no problems with these rules, not looking for a high speed/pwr setup. I think the PAS is the key to a good setup. I'd really like a torque sensored setup along with a high/medium/low assist switch. I've read about Bafang and torque sensors, but I'm not able to determine if the bb01/2 comes with torque sensor now. How about the CST rear hub?
If I go mid engine I will have to convert my road bike.
-I'd rather use the existing brakes on the road bike, do I really need brake sensors if I got torque sensor?
-Bafang bb01 is not reccommended with 9/10sp drive train. Is there a torque sensored mid engine that will work with 10sp?
Going the DIY route is gonna take some time, and I'd wanna get on my bike sooner rather than later. I've been looking into Klyfly and Copenhagen Wheel, but that will take even more time before they're ready to ship. Any other options? If I get frustrated enough I might just get the very expensive Rubbee :/
