It sounds like you want a Mahle system and assuming you like your current bike why take a chance on disappointment and regret buying a $1000 - $2000 add on kit when there are better options for a complete bike for not that much of a premium? video worth watching for scenery alone...

If you're adventurous you (OP) can give the Keyde a try - I don't see any reviews of this new(?) thru axle compatible rear hub motor with built in controller, torque and cadence sensing. Looks like an easy and clean installation and would increase the weight of your bike by about 5 pounds, plus...

It's more that I have much experience with the compromises and limitations of conversions. I got into it initially for my wife to try to keep her biking. I live and ride in a very hilly/mountainous area (I live on a mountain). Ridiculous but I have two TSDZ2 mid drives (500w 36v and 750w 48v)...

This is somewhat interesting if it fits your bike and you want to take the chance (I wouldn't): 12mm thru axle 142mm width/OLD, built in controller, cell phone app display/control. Motor weighs ~5 pounds plus whatever 36v battery weight...

Scotts Contessa Addict is a full carbon 26 pound ebike with sophisticated Mahle drive for $2700. There isn't anything remotely comparative to add as a kit to the OP bike.

Unless you want to go with a cheap kit with major limitations (like Qiroll) it doesn't make much practical sense to kit a bike anymore. Really any of the kits have major limitations and compromises. Assuming you have a carbon fork the front motor Swytch kit might not be a good idea. The...

Thanks Harry, maybe early June weather will suit me better but I'll check weather forecasts when the time comes. I don't want to wait until it gets busy and too hot though.

Off topic. I'm planning to ride all of the Mickelson trail late May or early June. Can you tell me when was that picture taken and how much of the trail you rode on 20" bikes?

Stock at a local Yamaha dealer is getting very thin but they have a YDX Moro for $1919 USD ($2745 CAD). If you live close enough to a US dealer with stock maybe it'd be worth the drive?

The close up picture of the motor that you posted looks to have a lot of corrosion including a severly rusted tension relief strap screw. Out of curiosity, does your tsdz2 look as bad as the one in this disassembly video? If so it might have lived a hard life and just reached the end of its...

I'm interested if Sasquatch can confirm his C3 reads voltage like mine, otherwise I have no idea if the way my display reads voltage is unique to mine or not. Since the TSDZ2 is torque sensing only (unless you also install a throttle) it probably doesn't drop voltage as instantly as using a...

It was a few years ago but I'm pretty sure it was the same code (and I'm certain it read Power Protect, like yours). I tried putting the battery in a single wheel trailer. Every time I hit a bump or rough surface the motor would turn off with that code displayed. The power cord was good...

I have a C3 display also. In my experience it isn't normal for the voltage to drop as you describe on a fully charged battery. The voltage on my display always understates the fully charged voltage, instead of 54v it will read similar to your 50.8v (I don't recall the number exactly but that...

For reference I have a 750w TSDZ2 and live on a small mountain with grades up to >20%. Motor gets warm after long steep climbs but not hot when I've checked. If it's new for yours to be hot when you get the error message maybe something else is going on to strain the motor causing more current...

Not my cup of tea but the Loadpro looks like a nice bike to ride a few miles with front and rear racks to carry a tackle box and a picnic basket.

You might take a look at what Walmart has to offer in your price range. I glanced at a few of their bikes which not only had UL certification but 3 or 4 year warranty options as well as Walmart return policy. Some might be in stock at local stores or have free shipping. I'd probably choose a...

I'm not sure because I've never tried a "Pro" but 33% additional power certainly couldn't hurt. My Mute "Plus" does have regenerative braking but it is very limited. I have some long down hill runs (along with long uphill runs) and the regen actually does work. I've had the battery light go...

I hope it works out for you. Let us know how it goes. 105,000 thread views and counting attest to significant interest in Qiroll. I regret not having purchased the Pro version but I had my reasons for the Mute.

I don't have a bike like yours but I'm curious, what type of strap mount are you thinking of? Something like this to strap down one of the hinge leaves?

Are you using the standard Mute or the Pro? Good that it works well on hills for you, Mute doesn't provide enough power for me on steep hills but it'd be fine on less aggressive climbs. I tried a self closing hinge (the kinds that you can adjust spring tension) also and thought it worked great...
