    LMT’D w/ MTB Handlebars & Maxxis DHR2 2.4” Knobbies

    Looks great but those (expensive) tires are designed for much tougher trails than I'd ride that bike on 🙃

    Do I need to balance a hyper ebike battery

    Hyper's cheap Walmart ebikes come with very small batteries - usually around 36V 8.8Ah - which is why your range is not good. I also believe that the low quality hub motors they use are very inefficient, and will drain batteries faster as well.

    (Shimano) batteries. Balancing.

    I've read that Shimano chargers will stay "on" for a brief period after the battery reaches full charge (mine does). This is unusual in my experiences over several years with Bosch, Yamaha and generic "brands." I've heard some folks surmise that the purpose of this is to balance cells, but I'm...

    PA eBike Rules for Trails Finalized

    Rules finalized for ebikes on state park and forest trails where bikes allowed. Summary: throttles are OK as long as riders don't use 750W max motors to propel 100 lb max bikes (with fully functional pedals) past 20mph...

    BH Warranty?

    My 2017 Raleigh Tokul iE's seat tube cracked (pic below) because they didn't make the gusset high enough to reach the top of the post on large-size frames - this happened with the seatpost at minimum insertion. When I bought the bike new, it came with a 5-year frame warranty. Because Raleigh...

    The infamous Motobecane HAL E-MTB. I bought one…

    I have trail-ridden bikes quite a bit with Shimano as well as Bafang motors (including a HAL eBoost Pro and a couple of conversions using BBSHDs), and the main difference to me is the smoothness and sophistication of power delivery. STePS systems win that contest hands down unless the rider...

    "Special Tool"

    I named this thread "Special Tool" because that's what the Tongsheng manual calls it 🤷‍♂️

    "Special Tool"

    The first TSDZ2 I got from Eco Cycles came with one, but the two I got from Eunorau last year - just before they stopped selling them - did not. When I asked Eunorau to send me two wrenches, they insisted that one came with each motor, but I'm 100% sure mine did not. Eunorau wouldn't help me get...

    "Special Tool"

    Update: Electrify Bike has them for $20 inc shipping, but you gotta ask - they're not on the website.

    "Special Tool"

    Looks like Bafang's BBSXX tool, but it's different and no one has them, including eBay and alibaba. Anyone else ever get one?

    Trying to Decide- MID Drive, Electric Full Suspension Bafang 28mph or Shimano STEPS?

    I had issues with my Shimano e8000 motor 2k miles in so I can't defend their reliability, but regarding their long term serviceability, I have to ask which model motor you're referring to. e5000? e6000/6100? e7000? I know they're still making their first motor, the e8000, because Commencal...

    Tranzx replacement

    Finding a motor other than the original to fit the frame's unique housing seems unlikely. Mid-drive bike manufacturers worth their salt design frames around each motor model's specific shape and mounting points. There's a chance another model of motor from TranzX would fit, but then there could...

    My battery died of heatstroke 😥😭

    Looks like a Brose motor, and they leave battery sourcing to bike manufacturers. I know Bulls used BMZ to make theirs - maybe EasyMotion did too? It probably says on the battery somewhere. Still, the battery case might be unique. You could try a repair service. I haven't tried them, but I've...
