    Installed a Rohloff Speedhub 14, IGH on my mid-drive Luna Z1 Ultra Mag

    6/20/24 - Update To Orignial Thread A few months ago I replaced the 16T rear cog with a 13T rear cog to achieve a more desired gear ratio. I wanted more top end. The change was nice, more top with some still serious climbing ability. After a few months of riding, the 13T cog broke in two. I...

    My Rohloff rear cog just, disappeard!

    Pretty sure it only comes in one thickness. It may have been defective, but I'm going to assume it's just "anemic" for the continued streess of the mid drive Bafang Ultra and stick with the more substantial 16T cog. I've got a 40T Chainring now, so to get back to the same Chainring/Cog ratio I...

    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...
