I found a source for used Bafang motors online .
80 bucks for two 350 watt motors. It came to $100 with shipping and they ship fed x.
But wait ???? Before ordering. I have yet to get one of the Bafang motors to work. The ideal set up is rather expensive as you need a controller that has the 9 pin connecter. Those controllers can be found but require a display module to start the motor which is extra money. I found one from e bikeling which was $50 and a display module for around $30 so already had almost as much as the cost for both motors just to get one of them working. The display module was defective and sold the controller for $30 as was not spending another $35 and waiting 3 months for a replacement from economy shipping from China.
I explored other options and ordered a adapter wire like this one from a US vender. The controller I used was a simple to hook up model from wish.com. After hooking it all up and testing several times the result was very disappointing.
I thought it was the motor but not sure as I hooked up both motors and they both basically did the same thing. I am not sure what the cause could be or what to do with the motors and controllers I got now.
I have hooked up two direct drive and two geared hub motors from e bikeling in the past and never ran into that problem. I am hoping someone will know what is going on.
Thanks.
