I'm not sure about Bafang, but many batteries have an internal fuse. It's possible a short occurred when that XT connector broke and took out that fuse. The manual, either printed or online, should give more information. Unfortunately, I have no first hand information on your bike. Hopefully...

Welcome to the forum! The short answer is this: In general, the output voltage of a 36V lithium battery should be between 30 and 42V depending on the state of charge. On some batteries, the BMS puts the battery into "sleep mode" after a period of inactivity. In this state, the voltage will...

How about a wireless throttle? This one is designed to look like a USB port. Maybe something like this could be modified to look like a handlebar bell, or a clip on design so you could quickly remove it and put it in your pocket...

This raises an interesting question: Can a bike have cruise control and still be class 1? I haven't seen it mentioned in regulations for the states where I ride. When posing the question to AI, I got this response: AI Overview No, a Class 1 e-bike, which is pedal-assist only, cannot have a...

I've been experimenting with this low profile thumb throttle. It's easily put on and removed in less than 30 seconds, with just one screw. The low profile design mounts right or left, takes up just a half inch of bar space, and allows the use of full length grips on both bar ends...

Cleaning dog crap from your e-bike tire tread after you ride through a pile. 💩 🤬

I agree. This was a first for me in all the shops I've been to.

I use these vinyl caps to cover all unused Julet or Higo connectors: I buy them in bulk from Mocap for a variety of projects https://store.mocap.com/mocap_en/fpt.html?Item=FPTC9432-20&Inside_Diameter=0.50000&Length=1.000&Material=BLACK Free samples are available if you email them.

A Specialized LBS opened up near here last year. I stopped in and noticed they had no e-bikes on the floor. I asked a salesman and was rather rudely told they don't have any and never will. He went back to talking to his buddy's, who all looked at me like I was a freak. Guess I won't be going...

Good point. My bikes have both cruise control and throttles. If enforcement gets more strict where I ride, I may remove the throttles, which I rarely use anyway.

It's tough to use the don't ask, don't tell policy when you wheel your bike through the hotel lobby. I suppose I would boycott hotels with in room bike bans as well, but I'm not too concerned about theft. I keep the bikes in the bed of my pickup: They are locked to the rack in 3 places and...

I use the "don't ask, don't tell" approach. If I ask, more than half the time, they say no. Unless a battery / e-bike ban is specifically posted, I charge in room. I also don't carry them in plain sight when passing through the hotel lobby. I use a protective case anyway, which is pretty...

Hotels / motels that don't permit in room charging of e-bike batteries.
