I wanted the smaller T145. https://to7motor.com/product/t154-e-bike-centre-control-panel
In order to go through frame with a 4mm wire harness I needed to use the LCD 135. The important thing is that the owner of the bike likes it. There was one problem with the build. I put on a new chain and the old 11-34 cassette didn't like it. So I made a house call the next day and installed a nickel plated 11-40 which fixed the crunching and skipping.

So since this is your new go_to...
Have you considered building one for yourself (or swapping out an existing build) so you have a greater first hand experience?
Might help with troubleshooting in the future as well as be a bit of fun.

I have the BB out of a new bike that is predrilled for through frame and ready. Two arrive tomorrow. Good thinking!

My freind and I didn't the exact same thing with the same result.
We couldn't get it to work.

I have pre-packed them with grease. That makes them smooth and quiet. I use waterproof synthetic grease with nano-ceramic bearings and get it on the O-rings. I start on my second DM02 conversion later this afternoon.

I'd be careful with grease on O rings if not specified as applicable.
They'll swell and become fragile.
Also grease should be applied in the proper amount. This is one of those cases where more isn't better. Over packing can possibly create churning, over pressure and possibly force grease beyond seals that weren't designed for this.

Ok... But silicone grease isn't good on gears. Especially metal to metal.

Sorry... But absolutely not.
That is a lubricant for the backside of brake pads to reduce braking noise.
Surely not the correct viscosity /flow /penetration for gears.
And we all know how important flow & penetration is

In the early 90's, I bought of tub of this grease, mainly to grease the sliders on automotive brake calipers. It's also rated for wheel bearings. As time passed, I used it for garage door wheels, and eventually in my bike axles, headsets and BB's. Recently used a dollop in my TSDZ2 mid drive.
It's almost all gone now. I bought a tube of Mobil SHC. I don't like the cartridge, so when I finish off a tin of peanuts, I'll fill it with Mobil,
Anyway, I did buy a DM02 motor last month. Comes in around the same weight as a TSDZ2.
I powered it up on the bench, and the display lights up and the throttle works, The display has something like 50 screens and will show watts, temperature, and voltage, the big Three, although I might crash the bike flipping thru the screens to find them.
I also bought the programming cables. Virus scans indicate no malware in the Toseven downloads, but I have no plans to update the firmware, It seems that until a few weeks ago, the download firmware was older than what they were shipping in current product. With that kind of release control, best to avoid. I hate programming firmware anyway.
I need a bike for it. I have a nice GT hybrid that I swore never to electrify it, but now I'm getting too old to pedal around without power. Guess I will sacrifice it to the Ebike Gods.
No real world results yet. It ain't wine country where I live. Snow just fell today, and I have to reorganize my bikes and lawn equipment to get the snownlower out.

I remember that grease !!
I've never had any, but I remember seeing it around many times.
My grease containers all look the same as yours.
It sucks how you always end up with crud in the grease, so when you have to pack a bearing, you have to dig past the top layer of grease to reach the clean stuff underneath.
I never threw out the dirty stuff, and would wipe it along my car fenders to help stop rust.
Fenders always rust out first.
Snow fell here too for the first time today.
I think my riding days are done for the season?
Now I can finally grease my motor with my fancy $50 Mobil 28 Airplane Grease,..
It should only be a ½ hour job but I'm sure I'll screw up or break something that will take a month to fix, so I waited until winter to do it.
I hope I don't get sand or metal bits in the grease.

It's supposed to be the best thing to lubricate the nylon gears in my hub motor.
It's supposed to have the most staying power to stay stuck to the gears and not get flung off at high rpms and make a mess inside the motor.
It's supposed to have a Huge temperature range and be able to deal with lots of vibration and moisture as well.
And it's the best thing to use on your airplane
It's hard to find in Canada and I actually had to buy it from and airplane supply store.
It's like ten bucks in America.

On my most recent DM02 build the battery would show three bars and the display would show half-a-bar. I used this chart to help sync them. Then I had to refine it.
