    [SOLVED] Bafang BBS02 : crackling noise when pedaling : any idea why ?

    Solved on July 10th : as WilliamT suggested, it was most likely caused by the motor mounting bracket rubbing against the chassis, due to the mounting nut being slightly loose, or the motor having slightly dropped since first install. At least I reckon. In any case, if you hear the same noise...

    Bafang 750 Watt, Integrated Wheel, Rear Hub Fat Bike Motor

    I'm new to ebikes and took my first plunge with a retro beach cruiser 20 inch fat bike, the Addmotor Motan M-70. I am enjoying this bike for all it's worth, but am frustrated at not reaching advertised performance of 28+ mph. I'd also like to extend battery life, or open to possibly travelling...

    Used Izip for $800 or Bafang kit + Masi converted into E-bike for 1300??

    Hi! Trying to decide btw a used Izip E3 Vibe for $800 or Bafang Kit converting a Masi Strada Vita bike into e-bike for $1300. My local bike shop recommends converting a Masi (or other nice bike) into E-bike with the bafang kit, which they do all the labor for. And that means they can do all...

    upgrade bafang mid-drive possible?

    I'm looking at getting my first ebike, and leaning toward an M2S or VoltBike model, both designed around a bafang 350w mid-drive. I want torque sensing, but ideally would like a throttle as well, which these don't come with. (I also looked at Juiced torque-sensing hub drives, but have read on...

    Guten Tag from the DFW Metroplex

    In November of last year I completed my first ebike using a Bafang BBSHD and a Priority Continuum Bicycle. For me, I enjoy cycling, but I've found an ebike brings back the exhilaration of being a kid and the excitement of freewheeling all over again. Long story short, I've parted ways with my...

All went very well, great installation, smooth ride, et al, 'till about a week ago when going up a slight grade I noticed a momentary power loss/hesitation. While in power assist with pedals, I...

    Narrowing down choices. . .

    New to the forum--very helpful resource! Forgive me for any naiveté; I'm in the information-gathering stage and there's a whole lot I don't know. I bought a Radwagon for my wife a couple years ago, which we love. I understand it's not a high quality piece of cycling machinery, but it serves...

    BBS01 on a 2017 Breezer Downtown 8 ST

    Getting back in the saddle after recovering from a broken leg I decided to get a new step through bike and swap over the BBS01 motor, rear cog, and commuting accessories from my old bike. Had to remove the Breezer chainguard so replaced it with a Hebie chainglider, which meant I had to remove...
