Hey all,
I have jumped into the ebike game without thinking too much.
I have a specialized alibi and a mongoose artery. They both are road hybrids.
I purchased two BMC hub motors (one front and one rear) and 36v 10ah battery packs, without thinking all the way through.
Now to the question,
I do not like throttle switches of any kind and want to make a pure and simple pedal assist bike. something like a poor mans copenhagen wheel.
If it was upto me i wouldn't even have a display but i think thats a necessity.
Can you please help me on how to achive these pure pedelac bikes as to what controllers to buy ( have not got the controllers yet), and do i need torque sensors or candence sensors.
plus i have heard that the torque sensors are quite pricey, do they work with all controllers, are there cheaper ones.
thanks
Charred.
