Got the cable ordered for the Bafang programming... Now I just wait...

@PedalUma , I've tried everything you suggested... no luck... I'm going to rethink the TSDZ2, and possibly the Open Source firmware. But then I need the 860C display too. It's possible that I have a defective TSDZ2... so something else to think about. I have other bikes that I can install the...

That didn't help. After the initial boost, the power dwindles down until it's completely gone. Then I have to shut down and restart the bike... and the cycle repeats. So I got frustrated... (no I didn't throw the bike in the lake!) Ha! I did pull the TSDZ2 motor, and popped the Bafang in. I...

That's how it started for me too! I haven't built up a cruiser ebike though. I restored a red vintage schwinn, and then bought an e-cruiser (shown in avatar). I still toy with the idea of building a cruiser, but really, the Vado is so much fun, I can't see how the cruiser(s) can compare. :eek:

Not a lot of excitment here. I can only change the voltage and amperage. The amperage was set to 00, which is the default, whatever that may be. I set it to 15 amps. I'll test that. Maybe later I'll try 17. But to get into the really fun stuff, I need to get an 860C display so I can look at...

I'm thinking about converting my purplish/bluish bike to hydraulic brakes, just because... I've never done that before. Any thing to watch out for. Any recommendations? Is it just plug and play, or do I have to learn about hydraulic fluids and bleeding? Mike...

@EMGX , would you do a single speed coaster? Or would you not do anything lower than a 3 speed coaster? Just wondering, cause you've done the 3 speed!

I just received my programming cable for the TSDZ2... I am going to fire up the tool and see what my options are!

I've not been able to find a "good" rolling resistance website that covers all the tires I would like to know about... I found this, but many tires are missing... https://www.bicyclerollingresistance.com/specials/best-road-bike-tires I do have the super moto X, which are nice... and am also...

So many good ideas! :)

1 message and she disappears. That'll teach me...!

Here ya go... I'll definitely derail the thread! Ha! Can plant based vegans drink beer?

Run? Turn your bike around and pedal as fast as you can?

Is the bike too small for you, or are you looking for a more relaxed riding position? Research https://www.google.com/search?q=layback%20seatpost&tbm=isch

sure, apparently this is the police sighting thread if it doesn’t become the bigfoot thread! 🤣

Best I can do... ha!

It was a hot day today. So after work I decided to go for a bike ride. The trail has a speed limit of 20mph. So I was working off some stress. I was doing good... 18mph... 19mph... then in a final burst I hit the low 20's. Suddenly, in my field of view appears this: Hmmm is this what I...

On my old regular bike I used to come around the corner into my neighborhood at about 5 to 8 mph. I have to look to the right to make sure no cars are turning onto the street, and to the left to make sure I don't hit the curb. At the slow speed there is time to do both. Fast forward to...

How about a Mirrycycle Mirror with a special bolt, like they put in the sensor bracket?

Thermo nuclear meltdown comes to mind! Ha!
