I recently got a Haibike MTB single with the new 350 watt Bosch BB drive system and LOVE it. The range with the PAS is excellent and the feel is natural.
I am planning to add an electric assist to one of my tandems and would very much like to have the PAS or Pedal Assist type of power control but have not been very successful in figuring how to do it or what products are available to facilitate doing it. I would very much appreciate any info or links, etc. on this.
I would also appreciate any guidance on which of the mid drive systems might work best for the tandem application. Due to the oversize eccentric front BB many of the preferred systems that are integrated - such as the Bafang BBS02 750W - can't be fitted. I also prefer a quiet system. I'm willing to spend $$ to get something that works well.
THANKS for any help you can provide.
PS: I don't think I need a great deal of power as my use for the system is to facilitate us OLD folks 70+ being able to keep up with younger fitter friends on group rides. So, range and efficiency is more important than brute power.
