    Changed my mind about my Gear Shift Sensor today - Disconnected it.

    I've been riding my Luna Z1 with Bafang Ultra for 2+ years now without the gear shift sensor, and no brake motor cutoffs. No problems.

    He did purchase the steel gears from GBK.

    Mounting a BBSHD in an Ultra frame?

    My friend just this weekend installed the quiet gears in his Ultra (CANBUS) which was very noisy. Now his Ultra runs near silent. YMMV.

    Bafang Ultra, new (quiet) steel gears, Canbus Calibration with the K1-Flash worked great!

    Oh yeah, I'vebeen working him on that! He's got that primitive rear cogs and derailleur thingy! :)

    Bafang Ultra, new (quiet) steel gears, Canbus Calibration with the K1-Flash worked great!

    My riding partner has ridden a Sondors Rockstar with a Bafang Ultra (CANBUS) for the last three years. We've been riding together about 4 times per week. I've always teased him about the excessive motor noise that his Ultra Motor makes. We both ride with SENA Bluetooth communicator helmets and I...

    Lower priced e bike

    I don't know anything about those bikes, but on thier parts page it looks like they use the "KT" controllers which are ubiquitous and easily sourced. That's a good thing.

    Why don't you share the make, model, and price, and maybe some other members that purchased that make or model can give you some specific insight?

    How do you all use your E-BIKES? Do you go out riding with friends or do you enjoy the experience on your own?

    I almost ride every day, weather permitting. I ride 70% with my my neighbor who has a comaparable eMTB, and 30% alone.

    Ha Ha! I was Googling "PUI" thinking it was a medical term like "Pulmonary" something or other. :)

    Installed a Rohloff Speedhub 14, IGH on my mid-drive Luna Z1 Ultra Mag

    6/20/24 - Update To Orignial Thread A few months ago I replaced the 16T rear cog with a 13T rear cog to achieve a more desired gear ratio. I wanted more top end. The change was nice, more top with some still serious climbing ability. After a few months of riding, the 13T cog broke in two. I...

    Bafang's Propietary Battery Port?

    Nice to know, Thanks Ravi.

    My Rohloff rear cog just, disappeard!

    Pretty sure it only comes in one thickness. It may have been defective, but I'm going to assume it's just "anemic" for the continued streess of the mid drive Bafang Ultra and stick with the more substantial 16T cog. I've got a 40T Chainring now, so to get back to the same Chainring/Cog ratio I...
