Hi,
I've just bought my first e-bike, the Brid Bike A-frame. So far I'm happy with the bike, but there is one thing that I'm a bit miffed about.
Seeing the reviews online (The US and UK) versions (an perhaps earlier firmware versions of EU bikes), you are able to go into the settings and increase the speed limit from 25km/h to 32km/u. I understand fully, that e-bikes going faster than 25km/h, is a different class of electric transportation i the EU, and thus, IF I were to increase the speed limit, the bike would not be road legal.
But, never the less, I would like to make the attempt, and would like to hear if any of you have any advice, because with my limited knowledge of the area, I seem to have hit a brick wall.
the motor is a Bafang RM G020.250.D.
Options that I have read about:
- eggRider controller - I can't seem to find a version there is compatible with this model of Bafang motor
- Changeing the wheel-size: This option is locked in the integrated controller on the Bird Bike
- Cutting the white signal wire to the motor: I'm not adversed to this approach, but it seems like a last resort - and I worry a bit about the motor burning itself out.
- other 3rd party controller/programming: Might be the best option, but I'm at a total loss as where to start.
hope some of you are willing to share your knowledge and advice.
All the best from Denmark
