Amazon Stops Selling Illegal eMotos in CA

On the Bafang...
If you enter the Start/End voltage properly in the programming. It should give you full smooth range on the rotation


So in this example...
Start: 0.9
End: 4.0

I'm gunna meter my throttle again, but from what I remember, the throttle would need to have mechanical stoppers at the two lines drawn on my throttle to eliminate the dead spots.
It can't be done by adjusting the start and end voltages.

It puts out the same voltage (something above 1.1V for a KT controller, or you'll get a throttle fault) and stays at that same voltage until the throttle is twisted to the first line.

Then after the pointer passes the second line, it put out the same voltage (something less than 4.2V) until the end of rotation.

That is for my hub-drive which uses that reverse voltage thing, but my first ebike is also a hub drive and uses a proprietary throttle, (which is just a mid-drive throttle) and IIRC, it behaved the same way with the dead spots.

Perhaps my left hand throttle Will put out 0.9V because it's for a Bafang mid-drive?

It says 65° rotation angle.

Does it actually have a 65° active "sweep angle" from the start of power to maximum power?


My throttle is only has an active "sweep angle" between the two lines with huge "dead spots" before and after the active area of the sweep.

Almost half the sweep angle is dead leaving me with a pretty twitchy throttle response.

2mm of "pointer" movement has about a 5 kph speed difference.

The throttle doesn't end up being very granular at all.
(I am used to it though.)
I would move it so it is in between the brake lever and shifter. That way you get use of the full grip. I recall them has having about 50 degrees of movement and being highly sensitive to the amount of push. But that could be a programing thing. The little moped bikes are mostly off/on. These are on very nice Velotric commuter bikes for adults that are smooth and easy to adjust to any speed in the bike's range. It kicks in with very little pressure and the bike will start at a walk assist speed.
