    How is purely torque-sensing PAS actually implemented?

    I mentioned that I was reviving a bike project earlier in the thread. It's been up and running for awhile. Pure torque control. I love it. I set up a 27" fat tire bike the same way and had a wonderful test ride before the torque sensor died. I also bought a nifty looking trike with a torque...

    Torque sensor mounted on throttle connection

    I read "[...] increasing pedal pressure [...] gives you more." That sounds like pure torque sensing. What am I missing? My project bike was running strictly current control; the harder you pedal, the more power you get. It seemed very natural. (BTW, I just now determined that I have a...

    Torque sensor mounted on throttle connection

    I cobbled together a 20" fat tire kid e-bike years ago years ago. I used a front hub motor and a torque sensor. I ran it with a VESC. It was awesome! Step on the pedal and go - no hesitation. Stop pedaling - decelerates hard. The bike is way too small for me yet it was a delight to ride...
