    Need a replacement controller for Bafang front hub

    Ok, I'm sufficiently mortified. Won't post again until I've had 2 coffees and shaken off the AM meetings. Thanks, again, all!

    Need a replacement controller for Bafang front hub

    Thanks. I apparently had AM brain, as you'd even linked me your controller. What I meant to ask what which display and throttle you're running. Currently have the Bafang display, but it looks like that controller takes a few specific ones. Do you use the standard Bafang thumb throttle?

    Need a replacement controller for Bafang front hub

    That may just be my salvation! This project is a kickbike, so no drivetrain, and no PAS. Thank you! Oh, what kind of controller do you run?

    Need a replacement controller for Bafang front hub

    Ugh. This has been so frustrating. Sent a video to the controller vendor at their request showing the connections and startup/error. Got half a mind to just get a sensorless controller. How rough are they?

    Need a replacement controller for Bafang front hub

    Thanks so much for the help. This is the controller I bought: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804429801507.html Looking more closely it appears the Bafang fat hub motor connector still has phase pins, but three central pins vs the single pin for the 500w hub. I wonder if the pinout for the...

    Need a replacement controller for Bafang front hub

    Hello Sphereists, I'm about at the end of my rope. My son and I built him an electric kickbike a couple of years ago using a Bafang FR G020.500.D front hub in the rear. We run a P850c display, and run a 52v battery. Everything worked great until I decided to try to internally route the...

    Gravity DeadEye 29er + BBSHD

    My first build from June, 2020 - June 2021. Donor bike is a Gravity Deadeye 29er from BikesDirect.com, a single-speed, fully rigid frame with open, horizontal rear dropouts perfect for an IGH. Ordered a custom wheelset from UniversalCycles (running 27.5x3, but will probably swap to 2.6"...

    Your Creation's Before & After Pics

    That came a long way, and very nicely. Brutal commute you've got there. I occasionally do a 40-mile rec ride, and afterwards I'm destroyed.

    Your Creation's Before & After Pics

    Here's the e-kickbike project my son and I finished up last year. It's a Gravity M10 shipped from Spain, with a Bafang 500w front hub motor in the rear (100mm dropout spacing), and a custom 52v 14.5Ah battery in the bag on the deck, which also houses the controller. Motion alarm installed...

    Bafang hub motor harness

    Thanks for the reply. It's a Bafang hub motor, so it's got the HIGO connectors. Thought about cutting the cables on the long, straight bit before the split, but that's a lot of wires. Probably not worth the effort, but it would tidy up the look of the bike.

    29r fork and wheel help

    I guess my first question is how is your front wheel mounted? 9mm QR, 15mm? The next is what kind of steering tube you have, 1 1/8", or tapered? There's an inexpensive Suntour that should accommodate a 29x2.5 tire, and the Rockshox Judy Silver, IIRC, should, too. But what you've got will...

    Bafang hub motor harness

    Salutations! So I'm just finishing up an e-kickbike build for my son based on the Gravity M10 (https://www.gravity-scooters.com/en/mushing/22-97-m10.html#/50-frame_type-normal_frame) and Bafang 48v 500w front hub motor with the battery in a case mounted where the down tube meets the deck, and...
