I just confirmed with FLX that they will be using the Bafang M600. Their info page still shows Brose, so that's a little odd. Obviously, they changed their minds. This should keep the price a bit lower. I'm still very interested. There's no specific release date yet, but they said they...

I got a TSDZ2 for my wife and I'm attempting to mount it to her Giant Cypress. I hit my first snag. (By this point on my first conversion, I had hit several tool-related snags, so I felt pretty good about this one.) Unfortunately, the shifter cable for the back is held right under the bottom...

I'm excited to see this one in action! Is the "1000W no battery" option a "Superhero version"? I'm very curious about the responsiveness to the torque sensing and how it compares to other motors. That's the catch with new things. We won't really know until we get it. I may have to pick...

Yeah, folding bikes have several issues if you want to install a mid drive kit. Would it fit? Would it be too low? Would it get in the way of folding? And for any folding bike conversion, where would you put the battery? Would you need a new rack? How do you deal with the extra cords when...

Ah, I see. You actually have the 48V 750W TSDZ2 already. Cool. I know what you mean about finding it anemic. I actually got used to it, but I am tempted to get the open source firmware and Bafang controller for it. I hear that makes the TSDZ2 much more responsive and adds a lot more data...

Regarding the fit, why do you think that would be a problem? Is it the width of the bottom bracket? It should fit most bikes. There's even a version (or an adapter) for wider bottom brackets. What bike would you be using? The only fitting issue I had was due to the battery pack. The...

I have the 48V 500W version and I love it. I haven't tried the 36V 350W version, but my initial thought on mine was that I wished it had a bit more power. (I actually think it's fine now.) I'm about 185 pounds. If she's lighter than me and doesn't plan on riding a lot of hills, the 350W...

I've been looking at the Stark Drive (https://starkdrive.bike/) for a while. I was really interested in the Stark Drive Torque with the mid drive motor, but it looks like it didn't get enough interest and I think they're scrapping their plans. Too bad. But their original is available and is...

I was able to do it with an adapter piece, but it added some separation between the downtube and the battery. Your suggestion looks way more sturdy. I think I'll have to try that. Thanks!

One thing I wanted to do with this conversion project was to see if my father (in his 80's, but pretty healthy) would enjoy riding something like this. Maybe I could get his butt off the couch and on a bike more often. Well, my family and I took him on a ride and he rode the e-bike. He was...

Another thought about the whole kit experience... I bought the 48V 13Ah battery. It's a pretty standard battery case. For some bikes (mine included) there can be a problem fitting it into the standard water bottle mounts. For some reason, they made it so that the holes are way up high. I had...

I ended up running the power cable up the side of the battery and keeping the control cable around the seat tube. I also put a neoprene cable management cover over it. I think I'm pretty satisfied with it now.

Hey folks, I finished (or almost finished) my TSDZ2 conversion of a Giant Talon hardtail bike. I actually picked up the Talon used specifically for this conversion, so I didn't have time to get to attached to it in its non-electric state. :) I gotta say, I'm diggin' it. I really love the...
