Haha, well it's my friend's bike, but I was the lead on building it, so I can certainly take the blame. :) I'll give that a look when I see him to help him with it.

You rock. Thanks Tom.

Thank you! Much appreciated.

Great, I will help him get those working again. I think the problem was just that the sensors and/or magnet weren't sticking to the brake levers correctly. I guess super glue might be in order. :)

Thank you. I have never heard of that and have had no problems on my bike which has a Bafang mid-drive kit too. (Again, this post is about my friend's bike that I want to help fix for him) What do you do when the overrun happens? Just wait for it to stop? Does using brakes with sensors stop the...

I'll find out, thanks.

I know he had some issues with them. I'm going to visit him and spend some time trying to get those working again. I know a lot more about it than he does. Thanks.

I will find out, thank you.

I helped a friend convert a cruiser bike to an ebike with a Bafang Mid Drive kit. Occasionally his bike goes rogue and the motor won't stop moving the bike even when he stops peddling. I don't think the throttle is even installed. His brake sensors are not installed either. Has anyone heard of...

I have a jumbo shark battery that I bought from California Ebike last spring. I am thinking about getting a 2nd battery to be able to do really long trips. That battery can be seen here - https://california-ebike.com/shop/48-v-downtube-battery-pack-high-capacity-premium-cells/ I want to buy...

I think maybe this from the EggRider manual explains it: LIMITED CURRENT (A) Represents the global current limit in ampers (A). This sets the power level that the drive unit will pull from the battery pack. Be aware that just because it is set lower, it does not mean that it may not draw more...

Good idea, thank you!

Yeah, I've been watching the EggRider screen when I pedal and the amps max out at whatever I had set them to.

Thank you. I didn't use the throttle at all. I don't plan to use the throttle much. I haven't done much else with the settings. I set the speed limit to 32 km per hour. I will take a few mile ride this evening and see what stats I can find.

Hey everyone! Long time no post. That's a good thing. My ebike has been working great. (Trek Marlin 5 with a Bafang BBS02 mid-drive kit, 48V, Jumbo Shark Battery) I am planning a 55 mile journey on it for Friday of this week, so I've been tweaking the settings. I want to use as little battery...

Ok interesting. I will see what he wants to do. I imagine he doesn't want to give up the coaster brake. Front brakes only on an ebike sounds dangerous.

Thank you. It does have a front rim brake and rear coaster brake. So you can't keep the coaster brakes if you do a mid drive kit?

Hey everyone. My ebike is working great...so now of course my friend wants help converting his bike to a mid drive ebike! He has an Electra Townie Balloon 3i and the specs online just say it has a "sealed cartridge" bottom bracket - from the best I can tell that would work well and uses a pretty...

There's been a lot of hiccups, but the build ended up fine. I needed some spacers for the chainring to keep it from rubbing into the frame. I have both of these spacers on it: https://california-ebike.com/shop/spacer-lekkie-02-chainring-2mm/...

Great points. Thanks. Yeah, I knew this whole thing was a risk. :) I used to like casinos, now I do stuff like this for thrills. Haha
