My current ebike instrument "panel"

I think I have finally settled on a display system that works well for me and my needs. I am using the same basic setup on my recumbent as well as on my two eMTBs.

I am using the Bafang 961 display on both eMTBs since it has the three button remote that I like so much, the recumbent has a Magic Pie 5 so I don't need a Bafang display to run the motor. I have three Garmin mounts so I can swap it between bikes for accurate odometer readings and a Bayite power meter from eBay on each bike.

I have the Bafang displays calibrated so that the speed in kph is within .2mph of the actual speed in mph......

The alloy mount is from eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/TrustFire-Bicycle-bike-Handle-Bar-outdoor-Extender-Mount-Bracket-Holder-Black-/311412179641?hash=item48819cc2b9:g:VbkAAOSwB4NWxUJr

The carbon tube I used with the mount is a crash repair part for a Talon drone and was only $20 for two 500mm pieces:

Neat!

I think I have the same bars.

What (tire size, I assume) setting on the bafang are you using to get the calibration?

I have no idea....... I just made the changes progressively for each bike while comparing to the GPS until they were as close as possible. The tire sizes are very different so I know the settings are different on each bike. This means I still have a decent speedometer when I want to ride w/o the GPS or if the batteries in the Garmin die enroute.

Having a camera on the handlebars is a stupid idea, smartphone or otherwise. The picture would be constantly moving and twitching due to the steering corrections that are need to ride a bicycle to say nothing of the shock from the road/trail. Far better to put a camera on the helmet so the picture follows the head if not always the eyes. As far as tracking my ride, Strava does than now for free. Good luck: they say one is born every minute, perhaps enough will hear about your new venture to keep you from have to actually work for a living like the rest of us.....
