    Shark Pack mount, is it weak?

    Really good info indeed. To be frank, If I could choose again I would NOT go with this type of pack. I don't doubt the quality of the cells, but the lack of a power off switch and the flimsiness of it kind of ruin the product. Not all of us like to fiddle all day.

    Shark Pack mount, is it weak?

    Hi there, So I received my shark pack, and I'm a little disappointed by the look of it. The base is made of plastic, and seem pretty weak. Quite a contrast to my "dolphin" pack made of sturdy aluminum. I'm looking for real world experience, should I drill holes in my frame and add rivets nuts...

    My BBS02 e-bike conversion first impression and first set of

    For me, the ebrakes (cutoff switchs) are worth having as a peace of mind. I travel in the city a lot, and while stopped at a busy intersection I want to be sure I won't get thrown over my handle bar and under a passing van because I accidentally activated the PAS sensor...

    MagicPie 5 vs BBSHD noise

    Before buying the bbs02, I hesitated a long time because I cannot stand mechanicals/electronics noises in general, they just annoy me to no end. For exemple, I recently throught out an otherwise perfectly good 22" LCD monitor because of a faint but high pitched whine. Oscillating table fans are...

    Bafang BBS02 Vendor & Reliability Poll

    I bought mine from conhismotor.com. The first one was completely trashed from the get go, and clearly untested. I had to pay an extra 100$ to get another one. It has been working good so far, I have close to 1000 KM on it. I consider this motor very light/medium duty as well and is the perfect...

    New 9C cassette kit on 10 speed SRAM?

    Thanks guys. Justin was kind enough to answer the question really quickly over email after all. Here is answer, for future reference: "Hi JS, the 10 speed cassette should fit fine. In general 8, 9, and 10 speed cassettes all have the same total body width, the higher gear count being achieved...

    New 9C cassette kit on 10 speed SRAM?

    Hello guys, My next project is a Giant Anthem 2 double suspension with an ebikes.ca 9C cassette kit. The triangle seem appropriate for a good battery pack, but it's a shame they are shoving those 10/11 speeds kit down our throats... Now, Grin only sell 7-8-9 cassettes, is it because a 10 speed...

    Wow tom, did you really had to go pull that quote from myself? I shared in the intent of helping other make an informed decision about a specific vendor, not for other to pity me. Too much time onyour hands?

    Where is good place to buy Bafang BBS-02?

    I bought the older version of the BBS02 and a 11,8 AH bottle battery mounted pack in April from conhismotor. They seemed to be the cheapest non-dodgy vendor at the time. I received a motor which sounded like it had a bunch of rusty old nails in it. I spent a lot of time taking it apart, and...

    Noob: DIY Torque Sensor Pedal Assist?

    Looking at nycewheels, I'm guessing your budget is around 1000$ right? I'm afraid that is a little too low for a real torq sensored setup. A quality thun sensor will set you back 250$, you will then need a cycle analyst to control it(150$). Then you need the motor, a quality direct drive if you...

    New Bafang Crank-Drives

    I received a dud from conhismotor. The kit was a 750 watts 20 amps one. It made a hell of a ruckus from the get go, and despite many tries at troubleshooting, I could not find the problem. It's a shame because i bought it because of the simplicity involved at first. I just sent it back(which...

    Bafang BBSxx - fault finding and fixes

    I think I explained myself wrong. Just to be clear, I'm very sure my motor is not operating in a normal fashion. Just like slowrider and electrobob on page 1 of this thread, my motor is making a clicking sound while operating normally, unobstructed. It's just like a freewheel sound, but while...

    Bafang BBSxx - fault finding and fixes

    Very good, thank you. Although, I just realized my problem seem to be coming from the final gear assembly. I don't know how, but it seem the final gear assembly shaft is freewheeling almost all the time? Traction is sporadic, and whenever I apply a tiny little bit of pressure on the shaft, the...

    Hello again, I was wondering If a very generous soul could pin point very precisely (in a picture!) the location of the the place where loctite should be applied (rotor shaft ??). I'd like to do it correctly, and I promise to use this information to help others while documenting my own problem...

    I've been stuck on removing the c-clip for 2 hours now. I'm so mad I bought that P.O.S. motor. I'll need to wait tomorrow to go to the hardware store to buy a c-clip plier.

    Bafang BBSxx - fault finding and fixes

    Thank you for the pointers Teslanv, very much appreciated. But, since english is my secondary language, and I'm pretty visual, can you confirm that what you have disassembled in the "normal" bbs02 video if what you call the "final drive gear" ? Also, how does one pull out the gear ? Thank you...

    Struggling with BMSBATTERY motors

    Thank you for the closure Tronne. I was indeed following this topic, and I'm glad to know how it ended. As you said, bmsbattery kit lacks long term usage experience like yours. It's always interesting to read others evolution. Keep it safe! :)
