3rd wire is for a brake light if I remember right.... I would do the same though. Change the connector on one side or the other.

Why, with your attitude, would I want to waste my time? You're going to find fault, even if it's in your imagination only, with anything I find. No, not going to play your/that game. Happy to take the time to provide an opinion on something you're asking about, but you're the expert (in your...

I bought a 750C display that has something like a CMOS battery internally - and it's not able to be serviced. It stores the time, or is supposed to store the time, but because this CMOS battery only charges when the power is on, to charge it you have to leave the power on while charging the...

I did mention I was talking about production bikes? There are several pretty popular custom mid drive motors, not generally used on production bikes, that have the ability to have throttles added. Most notably the TSDZ2 for example? I know there are others as well, but was trying not to confuse...

A throttle equipped Bosch drive is wishful thinking. They don't exist. It's that simple. To my knowledge, there is no "throttle only" mode in throttle assisted production bikes. They ALL feature PAS as well. It's YOUR CALL what you want to use and how you want to use it..... As far as throttle...

This bike is significantly different than the one you originally claimed to be a game changer. Actually, the only similarity between this bike and the original is the fact they are both trikes. This bike has no rear suspension, cost considerably more, has a rear diff. and is a mid drive (a big...

It's really not what inflation you CAN run at in my mind. It's a compromise of rolling resistance and ride that makes me pay attention. Point being, the fatties can be run down pretty low (5-10psi) for an awesome ride, but they handle like crap, and rolling resistance is nothing to brag about...

That's NOT always the case when some of the newer desings are considered. I'd agree when speaking of the 4" fatty types, but when speaking of the Schwalbe Super Moto X and similar designs (2.4" and 2.8"), you may be in for a really pleasant surprise. I did some testing after installing my first...

Most bikes will let you do that by unplugging them.

If you haven't already, you might want to ask the seller for more info, or possibly a suggestion where you might look?

I've never seen or even heard of a Bafang geared hub controller. Regardless, (learn something new every day!) I can share that your cable needs to talk with the controller, not the motor. The controller would hold all the settings/parameters. The motor has none of that. Just FYI..... If it were...

When you mention "your weight" and "hills" my mind goes straight to mid drive. Speaking from a personal standpoint, because I do ALL of my own maintenance, absolutely avoiding any reason to be forced into returning it to a dealer for anything (even after the warranty expires), that ability is a...

Proof regarding how totally out of touch your thinking is. I'll grant you only the fact that there may be a reason to go this way (trike) at some point due to situations beyond your control. ANYONE (OK, 99.9999% of us) of sound mind and body would absolutely prefer to be on 2 wheels for a...

I'm curious. You say the display has stopped working twice, and that one of those 2 times you replaced the display and it was back to normal. How did you fix the problem the second time?

I think that the advice you were given was regarding the outer jacket the cable runs in. The actual cable will still be 1 piece like you are used to. The Bafang shift detector can be sort of a pain to push the cable through, but shouldn't be too big a deal. The rest of it you'll find you're...

You've been busy! 😁 I have a lightly used one (maybe 3-400 miles?) that'll likely never be used that I could send you but it's 1100 miles from here. Won't see it until November. Is the odometer still working? Calibration issue?

We're on pavement for the most part, with just some single track shortcuts and hard packed (lime stone) bike trails thrown in. I clean the chains twice a year, starting with a good squirt of high pressure air to blow out all the sand and dust prior to re-oiling as most would do. In short...

That explanation makes your issue much easier to understand. As an Ultra owner myself, I now see where you are coming from....a pretty extreme application. Best of luck! Second thought, out of pure curiosity, wondering how often you use all of your available power? If not too often, wondering...

Florida place is the reason you see me speaking of the more powerful bikes in our fleet on occasion. We're smack dab in the middle of one of the few areas in Florida with large rolling coastal hills (Gulf side north of Tampa). We can't go in any direction without starting and ending our ride...

Are you running a 1000w geared hub? Taking those gears out on any kind of regular basis (or any geared hub gears) would be pretty unusual. And then, they're often taken out due to excessive heat more frequently than high mileage. I don't know the price of 1000w gears, but the more common 500w...
