The display in your photos does not appear to be the XH-18 which has a twist mechanism. That is why I was concerned about mounting position. What model is the display in your photos...

Thanks PedalUma, I appreciate you taking the time to help me figure this out. I'll go with the standard 42T and consider an upgrade in the future. So you are suggesting a 36V 350W unit will be fine for my intended use and be the most efficient. I'm kind of confused as the Elecycle site only...

Those pads seem perfect. Thanks.

So I'm leaning toward the TSDZ2 w/ XH18 small display as suggested by PedalUma. Thing is, it looks like it comes in 36, 48 and 52V and in 250, 500, 750W versions? The website states 250-750w but there is no way to select which wattage unit I may want. So I'm confused about that. How do I...

Gionnirocket, thanks for your help with this. I'm really looking forward to this conversion. I like the fact that the conversion can be done without changing the "look and feel" of the bike very much. Is there a reason you chose the Bafang over the Tongsheng mid drive? Is there a recommended...

Thanks, I like the idea of keeping the built as simple and clean as possible. I'm fine with no throttle. Love the water bottle batteries. Can I get 30-40 miles out of those if I put decent effort into pedaling?

Upgrading the brake pads and keeping the rims clean sounds like a good idea, will keep that in mind. I appreciate the tip.

Thanks EMGX, now you are really getting me excited about this conversion. I'm going to do more research and am looking at this as maybe being a bit of a winter project as the cycling season in my neck of the woods will end in a month or two. I will surely post once I make some progress.

Thanks PedalUma I will check out your website and the TS at 350W. I agree, I want to keep things light and simple. I don't want to change the characteristics of this bicycle any more than necessary. Just need some assist to make my rides longer and more enjoyable. I may end up getting...

That is what I am thinking, maybe a 500W motor would be more than enough for my intended use. If it saves a few lbs and a few dollars that's not a bad thing. I understand, I would probably not use max power very often, if at all. My understanding is that a torque sensor is superior and makes...

Thanks, I like the idea of keeping the weight down. Should make the bike easier to haul. I saw a video that said many E-bike accidents are similar to motorcycle accidents. So I want my E-Bike to continue to be more like a regular bike as far as speed is concerned. I don't see a reason for a...

Hello everyone, new member. This appears to be a wonderful forum with great information on E-bikes. Can’t wait to learn more and start riding an E-bike. Is this bicycle, a Scott Sub 20 hybrid, a good candidate for conversion to E-bike? https://www.bicyclebluebook.com/value-guide/product/10302...
