I rest my foot on the pedal, the motor is ready to go and there is a little torque there. I just hold it on the brakes. As soon as the lights change, bang, I am off like a rocket. Well I tried and I don’t like it. The motor forces against the brakes which can’t be good for the gears. And it’s very ...

AWOP is the Assistance WithOut Pedal rotation function I personally don’t like AWOP because I always have a foot on the pedal while holding the brakes at red lights. With AWOP I’d need brake sensors and I have hydraulic breaks so there are no factory made elegant levers that has them built in. And ...

Alrighty, finally i installed the newest firmware 1.1.0 to my mothers bike. thanks for the implementation of the sw102 display. Allthough the whole system crashes if entering the last two menu config options the display works fine. But i wonder in which funny world this firmware is an improvement c...

Thanks for sharing that video, could you please double-check I have labelled this correctly? Orange = Throttle signal White = +5 Volts Black = Ground OK I had a dig through the images from the forum and found a better image and a better video I have too. Yes your labelling looks correct except I'm ...

A question about the temperature sensor and 8-wire controller: where do you get the +5V and GND from? The pictures on the wiki aren't very clear on that: https://github.com/OpenSource-EBike-firmware/TSDZ2_wiki/wiki/How-to-install-motor-temperature-sensor#8-wire-throttle-type it's not super clear wha...

Look up how an XRing seal works and you'll understand that the Oring part is actually stretched over the bearing and can't slide, its the outer lip that then seals against the inner section of where the seal sits within that plastic cover. Seems odd and contrary to a normal seal. Im having trouble ...

I looked behind the plastic cover and there is no trace of the seal. I have no idea where it went because what I got out was only about a third of the total diameter. I expected to find the rest of it chewed up by the gears or something.

Does it sit in the plastic cover’s lip normally?

Yes it’s smashed :( Here is a clearer shot: https://i.imgur.com/otxB9hY.jpg Do you think the big gear may have been rubbing on it? Do you have much play or wobble in the spider or axle? I wonder if those covers are available separately. Yup, they are so cheap as to keep one in stock https://www.eba...

So anyway, I have found replacement plastic covers on aliexpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33009857653.html but where do you get the seals? The original seller (EUNORAU) is being an ass, saying there is no way this broke on its own, so it's not covered by their warranty, and so I have to pay ...

I took it apart, and that’s what fell out. 2/3 of it is still in place.

Is the plastic cover smashed around there too? The photo is a bit too dark to tell.

Yes it’s smashed

Some grey seal fell out of the motor today... .. Couldn't be that the same stuff (anti seize?) that is noticed here ? When adding a second bearing to the newer axle, how are people retaining it since there's no outer groove for a circlip? ..... No circlip there, just remove the seal and insert the ...

Gosh I had forgotten about those seals Looked up my bearing supplier and low and behold https://simplybearings.co.uk/shop/Seals-V-Ring-Seals-NITRILE-V-Rings/c19_4521_4778/index.html Did you find one that fits for replacing the original seal? Mine got all chewed up do I can’t take measurements anymo...

Some grey seal fell out of the motor today... it looks like it comes from behind the spider. Any idea what it is? Should I replace it?

Pedal side is which pedal is down toward the ground when turning the bike on. Weight with offset is the torque sensor converting its reading to a weight in kg after calibration. It helps to check if you did it right: does the 5kg object register as 5kg on the display after calibration or is it off? ...

Hello, if I install OSf on 850C with TSDZ2,can I go back and réinstall the original software on the 850C if I don't like the OSF?if yes where I can find the stock software? here https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1eGcBtTj8GrGQ4tDJAECr6ejMrpW2ZqvH I heard that when putting back the original firm...

Hi All - I have just installed a TSDZ2 onto my wife's gazelle chamonix c7 - what a mission!! Anyway I won't get into details but I just had a couple of questions if anyone can help. 1. I want to put the main cable through the frame with the brake and gear cables. To do this I need to cut off the co...

That happens to you because you did not update your firmware to most recent version. Yes, on purpose. I depend on the bike daily and can’t afford it getting destroyed. I have read several reports of controllers blowing up with later versions. There is a rather ominous warning on the download page f...

My tsdz2 has behaved strangely. Sometimes gives a very good assist and sometimes very badly. I started adjusting the torque sensor. I measured its value first and it was 157. The minimum value I can adjust it to is 64 (should get to values of 25-30). Is the sensor simply broken. I have that too som...

I wish I had the skills to do it but I know nothing of C or C++

Would you consider adding a configuration option to hide the clock altogether seeing how unreliable it can be and how much it can drift if you don’t use the bike every day? I’d personally much rather not see the clock at all than seeing it display the wrong time every time. Which Version you have i...

How do you guys find the motor waterproofness? I live in an area with a lot and sometimes very heavy rain and I would still like to continue cycling in such weather. Do you think the rubber seal on the motor cover is enough to not let any water in? Did anyone try to add silicone or something else t...

I've got an 860C display and two USB-UARTs with the DIY cable all wired up correctly. I can switch on the display and see that it has power. When I boot APT Burn Tools, select port 3, open port, openFirmware, start update. The RX and TX counters start going up and waiting appears in the status wind...
