    Can I get advice in plain easy to understand English please

    Actually, you can use this online tool without downloading the softare. I've used both the online tool and the download software. As recommended above by @ilMunduato, save your current config settings to a file, but also screenshot them too. https://devnotes.kymatica.com/BafangWebConfig/

    Can I get advice in plain easy to understand English please

    Are your controllers CANBUS communication protocol, or UART? If CANBUS, the settings are probably locked down, and the BESST software will most likely reqire a dealer account with Bafang to program the controller. If UART, you can change the settings to match each other. If they are UART, here...

    My Rohloff rear cog just, disappeard!

    Was riding last evening, not pushing my bike hard when all of the sudden I felt a snap/crack coming from the rear transmission/hub (Rohloff Speedhub 14 build thread) and my pedals began to spin freely without engaging the Rohloff hub. The chain was still on the hub axle, but spinning freely as I...

    Inserted it in the space here, at the base of the seat tube. I drilled a hole in the plastic motor guard and ran a connector for the seconf battery. The battery cradle is made of rubber but you can use wood. The cradle is secured by one bottle boss screw.

    Bafang to Rohloff belt drive question.

    I am running a ratio of 3.075 (chain setup 13T rear, 40T front) which seems ideal to me. At cadence of 70 I'm doing about 22mph in 11th gear.

    Class sticker?

    Read your local motor vehicle laws. That is where they are regulated. In my state (VA), certain classes of ebikes may be ridden on the road and are required to obey the law as if they are automobiles, once off the road, they are not regulated. Ebikes that fall outside of the certain class...

    Tube vs. Tubeless on ebikes

    Well, I disagree slightly. Tubes can rip or tear internally, and no amount of sealant will help. I've run tubes for several years with Slime, and it did work, but sometimes it didn't becusese the tube would tear rather than just get punctured. If you are running tubes, Slime will definitley save...

    Tube vs. Tubeless on ebikes

    Riding last night in the dark 3 miles from home, picked up a 3 foot piece of wire, like coat-hanger diameter, dead center puncture on the outer part of my front tire. Pulled the wire out and a white mist (Stan's No Tubes Sealant) sprayed a fine mist up into the air, highlighted by my headlight...

    Sorry to hear about your knee. I wear hefty knee pads when I ride my eMTB. Were you wearing knee pads? If not, do you think it would have helped. That looks looks and sounds like a nasty injury. ~Tom
