    Motor Grease

    Anyone know what kind of grease is in the Das Kit motors? I have over 2k miles on mine and I was going to open it up to just check on it. I want to have some grease handy though for when I do that. I keep seeing things about white lithium as kind of being the basic grease which is kind of...

    KT Torque Imitation - What To Expect?

    Thanks, I *think* we are talking two different settings though. I'm talking about the P3 setting where 1 = "Imitation Torque Control" and how that works vs. I think what you might be referring to is C5 "Controller Maximum Current Adjustment Setting" since that has some settings where things...

    KT Torque Imitation - What To Expect?

    Hi, I just put a KT 22a sinewave controller on an ebike. It's working out pretty well. I think I got most or all of the settings right. Seems significantly better than the controller I replaced. I'm trying to figure out what to expect with this "Torque Imitation" aspect of it though. I've only...

    Moscow Light Output

    Anyone know the max wattage light that can be connected to the light output wire on the Moscow (Plus)? The wires look to be wired into the mount directly, so it's likely 48v output, but not sure the max wattage that can be output. I guess the limit would be whatever the wires can handle...

    Rear wheel / hub motor replacement options?

    Sure - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33004887423.html https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32968312700.html I can update how it all works once it's all together. May just start a new thread since it's a different topic.

    Rear wheel / hub motor replacement options?

    For what it's worth, I'm in the process of swapping out the display/controller for KT, but I kept the Das Kit motor. Not done, but I did plug things into the motor to see if they worked and they seem to. It responded properly to throttle and read a speed on the speedometer. The KT vendor said...

    KT Controller Really Waterproof?

    Found potentially the best option yet. The controller is 131x66x38 or 39mm. 131 becomes 141 when including the mounting tab that comes off the controller. Found some plastic cases on Aliexpress. One is 145x85x40 and another is 155x80x45. Margin of error is "1-2cm" which is quite large. At...

    KT Controller Really Waterproof?

    Thanks, this is all really helpful! I'm leaning towards just mounting in a controller box on the frame just to be safe. I don't anticipate biking in a lot of wet weather, but I do occasionally and don't want the rain to get in the way. Another thought I had is to spray on some spray on...

    KT Controller Really Waterproof?

    This may be a really dumb question, but is a KT Waterproof controller, with waterproof connectors, actually waterproof. I'm not talking the connectors. I'm talking the box/circuitry. I am planning an upgrade that I'm doing to an NCM Moscow+. The controller for that bike sits near the bottom...

    Ultra Spinning Noise Normal

    This is probably normal but figured I'd ask. I have a bike with a Bafang Ultra. It only has about 150 miles on it. When I stop pedaling and the assist disengages, I hear a quick faint spinning noise from the motor. This happens every time. It only lasts a second or so and just sounds like a gear...

    Bafang Controller/Display with Das-Kit Motor?

    Yeah - that's an option and I believe Magnum sells them for about $100. My main hesitation there is I thought *some* C6 displays are still locked down, but even if not I think it still treats the PAS levels as target speeds which I'd like to try to get away from.

    Bafang Controller/Display with Das-Kit Motor?

    I did just take a look at the connector, it does have have 9 pins going out to the motor, btw. Not sure if this changes any thoughts on this though or maybe one pin just doesnt connect to anything?

    Bafang Controller/Display with Das-Kit Motor?

    sure, so I was thinking of convering to Bafang electronics. The Das Kit has been nice but the two annoyances are the lag that you get coming off a downhill. So after coming down a hill relatively fast, the assist is slow to kick back on, so the speed can drop quite a bit. The second is the way...

    Bafang Controller/Display with Das-Kit Motor?

    Aha ok thanks. Looks like a new motor it is if I go this route, which I probably will. Maybe I can sell the old parts to someone as a kit.

    Bafang Controller/Display with Das-Kit Motor?

    Well - hang on, im not sure they are. That's what I'm trying to figure out. The connector would work but like you say, you might get an error, or something worse maybe? I'm really not sure.

    Bafang Controller/Display with Das-Kit Motor?

    Has anyone swapped out the display and controller for Bafang? I think the motor connector is the same, just not sure if the pins line up with what Bafang expects? After a few thousand miles, there's a few annoyances I'd like to try to iron out that I think a Bafang setup will solve but I prefer...

    Rack Dimensions

    Hello! We recently purchased a Pace 500 for a family member and he loves it. It got me thinking to check the Aventon site since I'm looking for a rack that will fit my fat bike. I'm wondering if one of the Aventure racks will fit. It looks like there are a few different sizes. Does anyone know...

    Bafang Ultra 750w Limit & Power Consumption

    Hello, New owner of a bike with an Ultra. I read somewhere setting the speed limit to 22mph lowers the power draw to 750w. Did that and it seems to. At least the display maxes out at 750w. What I'm trying to figure out is if that changes the power curve at all too. So, for example, lets say I'm...
