    Bafang BBS01 harness issues

    Hi Everyone, Just currently helping a friend with a Yuba Mundo (not me, who wanted a BPM on the Yuba) trying to install a BBS01 motor and has hit the wall with the wiring harness being too short if threaded along the top tube along the Yuba mounts for wiring (along with brake cables etc.). The...

    Bafang BPM wattage limit

    I managed to track down a 250W Bafang BPM yesterday from aliexpress - scroll down a bit more and it says 350W. Not a problem I suppose, I'll just go with a 500W and do the label method then. I'll play with the controller to put at 25KMH but still get that nice torque curve up to that speed.

    Bafang BPM wattage limit

    Hi Everyone, Planning to do a build on a cargo bike (Yuba Mundo) and I want to go with a rear drive Bafang BPM motor with the 14mm axle adaptors from Yuba. I really like the Bafang BPM 500W motor as it seems to be getting good reviews and I think 500W is what I need for a cargo bike. The legal...

    Yuba Mundo ezee battery mount suggestions

    Will bottle batteries fit the Yuba frame? Looking to do a build but a bit lost as I noticed the water bottle cage holes are relatively close to the seat tube... making it a very very tight squeeze with a bottle battery? I did notice a black battery in one of the above photos also mounted to the...

    Yuba Mundo and rear motors

    Hi Everyone, Just wanted some help regarding a 500W CNE bikes DD hub motor installation (haven't bought the kit yet, just looking atm) into the overly large rear 14mm axle on a Yuba Mundo electric bike. I noticed Yuba has the "axle washer" designed the electric hubs in the rear, as well as...

    Dead Li-Ion battery woes

    Got the bike a few days ago and cracked the battery open with a voltmeter. 0V the whole way through the pack, not looking good at all.

    Noob dual battery setup

    Hi Everyone, I recently received my Progear electric bike this week. The battery on board (silverfish type) is completely dead as it was left in storage for too long and the BMS cannot function. I am in the process of buying a new battery later this week. However, I do have a spare 36V flat...

    Tonaro User group

    Just wanted to ask for a relative of mine who needs help about a Tonaro bike they bought online. The history of the bike is unknown apart from the fact they bought it second hand at a pawnbroker with a fault. I just saw the bike today but it was quite dark outside so I didn't take note of any...

    Dead Li-Ion battery woes

    Yeah I have a voltmeter. My trusty Fluke always sits on my desk. My bike is currently being shipped from down south so I'll have to wait for a few days before I get it and crack the battery open as well as see the charger for the first time. Will definitely keep everyone updated.

    Dead Li-Ion battery woes

    Hi Everyone, Just purchased a cheap e-bike on eBay with the intention to use it as a daily while I sell off my CNE bike bit on the Giant and make it a normal pedal bike again. I will keep the 36V Li-Ion battery from the CNE kit and use it as a backup as they go for quite a bit of cash. The...

    A wiring mess I need to figure...

    Tried everything I could using what I read above. no go. Sent it to an electrical engineer friend. He came back telling me the controller was toast. He assumes someones plugged a higher voltage in or whatever and fried it. This is the "new" controller as well... one removed from another bike...

    A wiring mess I need to figure...

    Hi Everyone, Just helping re-wire a "Longwise" electric bike for a friend of mine. I don't exactly know what he's done but he has cut a bunch of wires and handed it over and asked me to fix it. Doesn't help me at all with these cut cables. He said the controller was dead so he didn't know how...

    Surly fork dropout question

    I bought myself a round file and filed the round bit of the fork a bit more (the bit that stopped the axle going in further). Worked a treat and now my axle actually hits the end of the dropout!

    Surly fork dropout question

    Hi Everyone, Just got a CHROMO STEEL surly 1x1 fork installed on my Giant bike so I could use my 200W front hub motor without snapping a dropout. Got a torque installed arm and all just in case as well. However, I seem to have encountered a little problem with the dropout. It's a 9mm dropout...

    CNE bike hub motor problem

    Something's definitely loose or broken inside the hub motor. Today it worked as per usual but i could hear crunching noises at times. Not good. Seller said to bring it down for an exchange.

    CNE bike hub motor problem

    Hi Everyone, About 6 weeks ago I bought myself a CNE bike conversion kit for $250. It's 200W and geared front motor. This price was dirt cheap as the store just wanted the kits gone. Anyway it's worked without a problem up until last week where it would cut out everytime I went over a pothole...

    Tonaro User group

    Thanks for that info. :) I pulled the motor apart and found this... The spline gear has come loose from the motor. There seems to be a roll pin looking thing holding it in but that's broken. I used a nail (in my finger) to drill through and remove the left over bits of the roll pin.

    Hi Guys, Just picked up an Aseako ALTO bike (Tonaro Compy) for like $50 today with a "blown gearbox" said the seller. She said it just went crunch one day when she was riding. I took it home and charged it up, sure enough it was definitely not working. When I apply the throttle, I can hear the...

    Just did some quick googling and it might be a device called a sprag clutch that's causing my problem? what is this 'sprag clutch'?

    Tonaro mid drive slipping/not engaging

    Hi Everyone, Just picked up this Aseako ALTO bicycle, which is a rebadged Tonaro Compy. It's got a 200W mid drive motor, never used one before as I've had hub motors on the eZee Sprint and a hub on my Giant converted bike. Now I can confirm the motor works as it spins and makes noise when I...

    New fork or not?

    Oh, I definitely didn't use the washers that came with the kit. They weren't oversized as they actually fit into that cup thing on the fork, but they were uneven (face surface wise). I went and bought these instead (in 10mm size)...

    New fork or not?

    Hi Everyone, I know this has been widely discussed but would like some more insight as my situation is a bit different. So basically I just got a used Giant Sedona CX with alloy SR Suntour XCT V2 forks with (I think) 63mm travel. I then bought a cheap CNEbike kit from a bicycle store that was...
