    BBS02B controller upgrade?

    So if you buy a BBS02B your throttle is really just an on/off button, and apparently it's been this way for years. So is it possible to upgrade the controller to something that works correctly, without breaking the bank? These folks want $484, and they don't even mention the "B" version. This...

    BBS02 throttle is only on/off (not smooth/proportional)

    I just installed a new BBS02B 750W 48V (850C display) into a hardtail mountain bike with 27.5 tires and a 8 speed cassette. I used this kit from Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B078YNVH9Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Overall, it works well. I've used hub motors for...

    CycleAnalyst direct plugin throttle latency

    I switched my main commuting bike from my old Wilderness Energy brushless controller to a CA-DP with a C3620-NC controller. I have the throttle directly wired to the Cycle Analyst (CA), and the CA controls the controller's throttle. Everything works great, except my throttle is now delayed by...

    Ebiking in Dallas

    I've started a little blog about getting around Dallas and the surrounding suburbs on ebikes: http://dallasebike.blogspot.com/ I've ebiked thousands of miles through the DFW metroplex over the years, and I commute to work every day on an ebike. Sadly, I have yet to see a single ebike anywhere...

    bearing replacement on a Wilderness Energy BL36 front motor

    Hi all, I originally bought this front brushless hub motor kit (BL36 - 36V 20A) from Bernson EV (now defunct). I believe it was made by Wilderness Energy (also gone). I've put many thousands of miles on this amazing little hub motor, commuting to work or the train, with no problems until now...

    NiFE batteries from BeUtilityFree

    I finally received 10 NiFE (Nickel-Iron/Edison) batteries from BeUtilityFree today: http://www.beutilityfree.com/content/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=44&Itemid=129 Since these batteries where once used by electric vehicles back in the day, I figured someone here might know...

    my new ebike

    I guess I've been reading these forums too much. My wife thinks I'm kinda crazy for spending so much time on this stuff. Not many people ride bikes around here, and I've yet to spot anyone with an ebike in the Dallas area. Anyway, my office is moving soon, and I wanted to build a new bike...

    thoughts on the Wilderness Energy BL36 26" front hub ki

    I've put about 100 miles total on this kit mounted to a plain steel frame, no suspension mountain bike with 26" wheels. Bike pictured here: http://www.endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2179 With the 36V 12AH SLA's that came with the kit, peak speed on flat ground was 20MPH using 26"...

    few pictures of a custom A123 12S4P pack for BL36 ebike

    After studying this board I decided to make the plunge and convert my ebike to a battery constructed from A123 cells removed from five 36V Dewalt packs. I've been using the horrible ~30 pound SLA's (36V 12AH, 3S1P) that came with the Wilderness Energy BL36 kit. I decided to build two 19.8V...
