    Specialized ROLL Hub Conversion - Q&A

    Amazing what a turn your post took! Sorry you have had those problems. I have not been on the forum for a while but I too converted a Roll Sport. I chose the mid-drive Bafang 500W motor. Because of the weather on the BC coast have not had much use of it since the conversion late last Fall but...

    Electrified Specialized Roll Sport

    Nice job! I went with 44 tooth centre. Is that a Specialized rack you have in the back? Or after market?

    Electrified Specialized Roll Sport

    Shortly after I joined the forum I sought advice on what kit to install on my pedal bike, a Specialized Roll Sport. I ordered a Bafang 500 mid mount kit and a 48/12.5 battery. The kit arrived last week and the battery today. Timing in life is everything and as it happened a good friend was...

    Thanks! I suspected there might be other threads but was not sure how to access them. Seems conventional wisdom is to leave them uncovered but protect sensitive bits.

    Conversion to Ebike

    I notice your wife's Roll has the slick tires mine does. Do you ride on any loose terrain or mostly pavement? Wondering how they might handle.

    Conversion to Ebike

    I am new to the Forum, new to Ebiking and pretty incompetent when it comes to technical things. I want to convert my Specialized Roll Sport Step Through to electric. Based on my research and budget I think I am settled on the Bafang BBS02B 48V 500W kit. I was thinking the 44T gearing and a 48V...

    Another new member from Vancouver, BC area

    I live in Langley, part of the Greater Vancouver area, and a new owner of an ebike. Years ago I bought a decent trail bike but frankly got little use out of it. This past Spring I dusted it off with the intention of starting riding again. I parked it in my car port, out of sight of the road, but...
