Let us know how that works out and if you needed any additional modification. On another note; I’d like to find someone that has the electronic knowledge to make an adapter that will work with the Orbea charging plug and a PIDZOOM Charge Enhancer. Far beyond my realm!

Does the bike have brake lever motor cut off? If so, could a brake lever be sticking a bit and the aggressive throttle closes the contact again?

I hear you gehu. I have always done all of my wrenching and now realize that on this one, headset adjustments if needed are probably off limits. I‘m not touching it……….period!! Bicycles have mainly been easy to work on and make modifications on, but I see the same things happening to bikes...

This listing is for an extremely well maintained Bacchetta Giro A26 with an added Bafang BBS02 750W motor. This bike rides like a dream and can be a fast as you want to push it. Wheeltop Electronic Shifting Located in Wickenburg, AZ. Pictures available upon request. This bike looks and...

I’m hopeful that mine will eventually work out. I got one that had a poor build from Orbea. The first issue actually may have been caused by the online retailer but the second one is more than likely, fully Orbea’s doing. The seatpost wedge, which is a bit funky until you understand it...

I too ride a recumbent (Bacchetta Giro/ Bafang BBS02) and purchased my last chain 11 speed E-chain directly from Bacchetta. I like the fact that you can purchase chain by the foot so you’ll only use one quick-link. I’ll never go back to putting three chains together.

I agree wholeheartedly Jeremy!! I lived in San Mateo for several years and enjoyed sights like this on a regular basis. Seeing this great picture of Crystal Springs made me realize that that area was the very best location I’ve ever lived in. One cant look back and change again to what once...

“The only clean chain is one that doesn’t get ridden”! Not for the anal retentive…………..mine is clean always.

No matter what we use, fifty years from now discussions on chain lubes will still be being debated. I think we may never ever, ever find the perfect lube!

Yes I am riding with a BBS02 with an 20aH battery. I am extremely happy with it. I do ride with minimal assist as you suggested,……….. mostly PAS1. Does anyone have firm data on riding powered up but riding in PAS0? I’ve seen it written that it’s not suggested to ride without some assist...

Yep.……… and that’s enough for me. I’ll very infrequently ride it to the limits in one go! I usually ride from 54v to 47v in several rides.

I can’t tell you because…………..the last thing I’m going to be concerned about are those perhaps slight variations. Fifteen miles per volt works for me!

Just charge up and then pay a bit of attention to the average milage per 1v that you are getting and go from there. There will always be variables no matter what you do, so simply try to ride within those variables. I get about 15 miles per volt in my terrain and I always leave a few volts in...

FYI…………..I did my own testing by going for it! No issues whatsoever in hanging the BBS02 out on the boom of a Bacchetta Giro w/700c wheels. With the battery mounted down low on a T-cycle tray, the weights seem to offset and the ride stability is not compromised.

Sorry to hear your troubles with the Photon and thank you for sharing the experience. I considered a Photon for a short while but turned back towards a Bafang BBS02 after hearing of issues with CYC. The BBS02 is still young with only 1000 miles but it runs flawlessly and is extremely quiet too.

wrote a lil song about it, ya wanna hear it?

Awesome information shared by those that have experience and knowledge about motors and controller programming parameters. It’s great to part of a group that makes riding electric enjoyable and as aerobic as we feel fit enough to do. I motorized my SWB Bacchetta Giro a couple of months...

I’m trying to understand the logic in why running at zero power causes excessive bearing wear? It doesn’t seem to me that putting more torque on the spindle/axle would affect the bearings. I too run at zero power quite frequently which now is of concern.

What’s been said!! Find a bike that can handle the roads/paths/trails you like to ride and motorize it. I recently put a Bafang BBS02 on a two-wheeled recumbent that was not selling and resurrected it into a great riding bike. I’m glad I realized it’s potential. The motor kit was an easy...
