HOW I INSTALLED THE CA3 ON MY SUPER73 I like my new Super73 e-bike and enjoy riding it but as usual for me I also want to customize it to better fit my riding needs. Most of my rides are soft sandy desert trails. For that reason, I changed the front tire to the Badger 5”, added a steering...

I agree! E-bike riders in Utah need to push for at class 2 on trails on BLM land. Right now only class 1 is allowed on all trails on BLM administered land. That means no throttle! I don't live in Utah so I can't have a stakeholder say but I do ride there some each year. Trikester

Null: Have you traced the connections to the BB sensor yet? If so please post. I have found a torque sensing BB in China that should fit the Super73 and it's on its way to me now. I have the connections to its six pin connector (same type) and would like to see if they happen to line up with...

That's great info, thanks! NOTE: i NOW HAVE CONFIRMATION FROM SUPER73 THAT NONE OF THE MODELS SOLD IN THE US HAVE TORQUE SENSORS, THEY ARE ALL CANENCE SENSORS. ONLY SOME MODELS SOLD IN EUROPE USE TORQUE SENSORS. In MHO this sucks! A cadence sensor is useless in serious dirt riding. In Utah...

I'm now positive that it is a cadence sensor. But I opened the connector and it is a six pin connector. Since a cadence sensor only needs three pins it makes me think that the controller is set up to accept which ever one is plugged into it. If that's the case then I if I swapped out the cadence...

As far as i can determine it is a "standard" BB enclosure so I could buy a torque sensor model but I would been to determine if the controller is configured for both, as you said.I wish I had a techinican contact at S73 that could give me all this informat5ion. I'm going to try to do that. I...

Since it is an OEM part on the bike I don't know who the manufacturer is. The link provided by another poster to questions and answers by Super73 said that the model RX has a torque sensor. Mine is a model RX but I have now identified mine as a cadence sensor according to their description of...

Well, after reading the link you sent it appears that I have the cadence sensor. The description of the ends of the BB that they use tells me that. Also, I've had other ebikes that had cadence sensors and they all have a short delay before power shuts done if I stop pedaling. This bike has the...

Interesting. I have the R-Adventure, a top end model, which I assume would be in the RX category, which according to what you saw on another site would have the torque sensor. However, when I come ot a steeper slope and apply more pressure to the pedals I don't feel any added assistance. The...

Yes, thank you for the reminder. Exactly what you have said was the reason for my asking this question.. In the past I have used 5 Cycle Analysts on my e-bike projects but in all of those cases I also chose the controllers to use. These controllers were already configured to connect to a Cycle...

Thanks E-HP. I've used several CA 2.3's in bicycles that i converted to e-bikes and one CA 3 on an e-bike I built from scratch. On all of those I used controllers that I purchased, with inputs and outputs identified, and fit with the CA units well. I guess in this instance I have been more...

I've modified my S73 "R-Adventure" to my specific riding needs but one more thing needs to be done. I love the bike but the minimal dash and programmability sucks! A tech at Grin Tech sent me general information on connecting the standalone models of their Cycle Analyst but it this point in...
