    Forum Updates and Feedback

    Yes it is, and yes they do. I would be in favor of segregating sales and product promotion from specific forums. I believe you should promote the site for use by manufacturers and distributors and you should also be compensated for your efforts. Court J.

    FYI Lunacycle is having July 4th sale

    I believe that this is correct. The additional cost is certainly worth it for most people. Court J.

    Tell me your thoughts on my first eBike Build...

    For your comparison I rode my bike yesterday on a 31.3 mile loop. The total grade change was 2,068 feet. There were two climbs of 1/4-1/2 mile at 5+% grade and one short climb of 1/4 mile at about 7.5%. The bike I rode was equipped with the 48V 750W BBS-02 and the Luna Shark 52V 13.5 AH with...

    FYI Lunacycle is having July 4th sale

    If it's a clearance item, it's an incredible price for a very capable system. Can't comment on the issues people have had with the hardware because I have 4 BBS-02 and haven't had any problems at all. But I can suggest that reading these forums and the many (varied) complaints people have...

    The 48V 750W Bafang mid-drive can handle your 7.5% grade 2.5 mile distance no problem. The part numbers you specified will do the job just fine. All you have to do is confirm that your bike's bottom bracket meets the requirement for the installation. If you go to the 8Fun forum you can read...

    Tell me your thoughts on my first eBike Build...

    Couple of concerns. Will the controller be able to handle max amp load when you're going slowly up a continuous grade? You will be asking a lot from the motor and controller, overheating and fried circuits are an issue when going slowly up grades with hub motors. It's not as much an issue...

    IGH

    I've been riding the Rohloff Speedhub for about one month on the Titanium Fantom and have just shy of 600 miles on it. I'm impressed.......I don't think I'd ever go back to a standard derailleur. I also converted my older 48V 750W bike to the Rohloff so both 750W bikes have the Speedhub...

    BBS02 750w dissapointingly unreliable

    The PAS assist cut-off speeds are programmable. You can adjust most of the parameters that control how the BBS system functions if you have the programming cable and the interface software. Court J. https://electricbike-blog.com/2015/06/26/a-hackers-guide-to-programming-the-bbs02/

    "Sticky" steering

    That star nut should be in the steering tube stub about 3/4" to 1". Glad you found the problem. Court J.
