    Sun-thing battery, waiting 17 weeks!

    In my experience, a package inbound from China has some small chance of being randomly inspected by CCRA. A battery would have come in by sea, so that would account for much of the time that has passed so far. If Canada Post says it's in Vancouver, that's probably the case. If it's got to go...

    Interesting level of destruction to a Bafang controller

    I would also like to know, was this just road splash or was it actually dunked? I ride my BBS02 in heavy rain fairly often, no problems so far, but I've wondered what the result of it ending up submerged would be. I don't plan on doing this on purpose, but things happen.

    Noob needs guidence...

    I live in Vancouver, BC and I think I understand what kind of hills you are going to be dealing with. This isn't just going up a hilly bit of road, it sounds more like you're climbing part way up the side of a mountain. I would strongly suggest that you look into a mid drive system, especially...

    Bafang BBS02 on the Nerve Cannibal/Switchblade

    Luna sells an extension cable for the BBSxx speed sensor, if that's a problem.

    Same Price: Luna 52v 13ah GA Dolphin/52v 20ah 26f Triangle

    Yeah the top one is series, not parallel. The difference is VERY important.

    Stop reading this sticker and drive your car.

    E-bike battery charging while riding

    I think the OP was really just interested in the ability to charge at the same time as riding, same as me. I'm just interested in occasionally pumping 800W or so of Honda power into the system to extend my range going over the mountains. I have no illusions of using anything other than bad old...

    bbs02 steep hill best practices?

    I generally climb long steep hills (and there are plenty around Vancouver) in the lowest gear needed to maintain high crank RPMs (80+), in top PAS mode using the throttle to keep it at or below 750W while I pedal as necessary to avoid needing to downshift. It takes a bit of getting to know the...

    E-bike battery charging while riding

    I'm looking at doing something like this if possible. The charging source will be a 1000W Honda generator in a trailer, for some long touring/camping that I'm planning to do. Plugging into mains at the end of each days riding simply won't be feasible where I'm planning to go. There's just no...

    Ping Lifepo4 Charger on 14s 18650?

    It appears you have found and replaced the weak point (voltage wise). If nothing else turned to smoke I'd say you should be fine.

    BBS02 on vintage Nishiki

    That looks like it would at least keep the chain from falling onto the housing, I'm awaiting distributor info from Roox. I've noticed that after about 100km of riding that gear noise from the BBS02 has become audible. It was essentially silent until now, so I'm thinking it might be the crappy...

    BBS02 on vintage Nishiki

    Longtime reader on here, finally got my ebike built last week and wanted to introduce it. 1974 Nishiki Regal touring bike originally bought new by my uncle and given to me about 10 years ago. For about the last 5 years it's been my primary transportation and has been a great bike in every way...
