Hi Guys I am thinking about buying a fully mountainbike with yamaha e-bike system. This features a "zero cadence" feature. Last time I rode an E-Mountainbike it was awfull because the bosch system took about half a crank-turn to kick in. Due to this fact, it wasn't possible to pop some wheelies...

Hey Ykick Thank you for your reply. I think you mean a new, smaller cog on the motor, right? Because on the rear I can simply switch gears - or am I understanding you wrong? Well, I think I'll live with the bike and someday when the batteries are dead or something like that, I'll just get...

Hello guys I bought a used "flyer ebike" with the 36V Panasonic mid-drive system. The bike is great so far. It is licensed for up to 45 km/h in my country. The problem is that I barely reach 30 km/h, even in the highest assistance mode. So I don't get limited by the 45 km/h limit but by the...

Hey Guys I opened some other threads here and was nearly already set for a small front hub set for my citybike. (With a "Cute"-Series Motor: Q100). But then I read that it would be nescesary to deepen the dropouts on the front fork. One question: I have disk brakes. If I deepen the dropouts of...

Hi --freeride-- and thank you Well, it's less about "real power" but more about function and satisfaction. As far as I can see, there is no way to substitute a broken gearing on the Bafang Kit, and on a bike for heavy offroad use I'd expect to be forced to change the bearing every 2 or 3 years...

Hey Guys I am totally in love with the ego-kit. This is because I like motocrossing, but don't like the idea of driving 4 hours + with my car to motocross 3h and then go back. This is not environment-friendly and also a bit stupid and boring. So I figured out it needed to be an electric bike...

Hey Guys First, I wanted to get myself a rear hub for driving my commuter-bike (about 15Km/day in a not-so-hilly area (the one hill is about 40m / 4Km and one of the steepest hills here is about 70m / 500 Meter). I then realized, that the rear hub is too wide (other users here said that I could...

Hey Guys Okay, it seems like I overrated the flexing part of the frame, but I am really worried when I read "deepening of the dropouts". This would then be a bigger modification. Is it still possible to insert a normal hub afterwards? I would really like to still use my normal bike, because I...

Hello Guys I am planning to convert my citybike to an ebike, to help me to commute to my workplace and back (7Km one way). First I planned to use the Q100C Cute motor, with casette freewheel, but then I saw, that it's too wide (134mm). (Bending or stretching the frame is no option) Before I...

Hey Guys I am planning on buying stuff for my first build, especially a hub motor and a battery. There seem to be many different opinions on bmsbattery and the condition of their items after shipping. So very concrete: Did you order lately from bmsbattery? Are the batteries allright or do they...

Hey Guys Thank you for the many replies. I am starting from the top. I think I am going to take the 201 Q100C Rear Driving Motor, as the allowed speed limit here is 25 km/h anyways and it would offer better climbing ability Thank you for your recommendations, regarding the cart. I will follow...

Hi d8veh and thank you for your reply Okay, it insn't really a problem if the setting is global, I just wanted to know;) Any further thoghts regarding my cart @BMSBattery? Thank you for the comment regarding the speed sensor though. Regards Kittenrainbow

Hi Motomech and thank you for your reply Well, looking at those prices I have to say that I'd be really stupid to build it all myself ;) Just some questions left which I couldn't answer myself: -As I said earlier, I want to use the bike in 2 modes: the lazy mode (throttle control, no...

Hey Guys This isn't my first post here but I finally want to start building my first EV-Project. I want to start by converting my normal city bike to a pedelec (20 km/h throttle only, 25km/h with pedal assist are allowed in my country). I have to say that I do a lot of electrical engineering...

Hi and thank you for your answer But I really start to like the idea of constructing a controller on my own. I could add a bluetooth module to beam statistics to my smartphone, I could implement other features directly into the controller and so on. Does anyone of you know a "dumb" ESC for...
