    Controller switch

    I have a Golden Motor Magic Pie External Controller 1000 watt rear hub motor on a tandem recumbent trike in a 20" cast wheel. If you go to GM Canada's site and check out the motor, there is even a picture of our trike on the page. I got this over the higher end Vector model because I was afraid...

    Lifepo battery question

    A while back, I was given a 48v 20ah V-Power Lifepo battery. I just checked all the cells as I was advised in a previous post, and they are either 3.3 or 3.4 volts totaling 53.6 volts after charging. Does this mean it is a healthy, usable battery? I am planning on using it with a 750w geared hub...

    Need charger help

    I was recently given a lightly used V-Power 48v 20ah Lifepo4 battery. It is a little heavier than I like but hey, it was free. The only charger I have is a Luna 48v for my Li-ion battery on my other bike. I assume I need a different charger for the different battery chemistry? Any advice on a...

    BBS02 Reliability?

    I am trying to get a feel for the reliability of the 48v 750w BBS02. I am getting mixed signals as I read different people's reviews. Are the main issues with reliability a matter of abuse or inherent weakness in the unit? If geared correctly and used on road, is the BBS02 reliable? I would go...

    Will the BBS02 or BBSHD fit here?

    I am about ready to purchase the components for turning my tandem trike into an e-trike! I am hoping to use the BBS02 750 watt version or possibly the BBSHD if I can get the extra funds together. Before I pull the trigger, I wanted to show you guys a picture of the rear crank area to verify...

    Question about using 52v with BBS02

    Does using a 52v battery with the 48v 750w BBS02 cause any long term problems? I'm about to pull the trigger on purchasing a complete system and I'm trying to decide between 48v and 52v. If the watt hours are similar between the 2 batteries is there any advantage one way or the other?

    Tandem Trike Conversion

    I am looking to convert our recumbent tandem trike to an e-trike. It is a hefty brute and it is hard for us to average more than 10 which makes it hard to ride with others. It is currently an 8 speed with a triple in front. I would like to be able to be able to cruise with friends on normal...
