    MAC @ EZEE Connectors

    I have bought a new bike with 700c wheels. My old Ezee setup is a 26 incher. It seems better to buy a new 700c Mac motor complete rather than cutting out the Ezee hub and having lacing it into a new rim. My question is how compatible is the MAC connectors to the EZEE? CA V3 is my controller. :?

    Geared hub motors & Aluminum Forks

    Lots of comments about the danger of aluminum forks. I am looking at a Priority Continuum bike and it has a 6o61 T6 ultra light aluminum fork. I am an old fart that is strictly a street/groomed trail rider. Presently using an EZEE geared hub on Townie Electra, 48 volt battery controlled by a V3...

    New Bafang Crank-Drives

    Anybody have any sort of information regarding reliability issues between the 500 and 750 watt BBS02 kits? I understand the change in the number of fets was required to cope with 25 amps but what effect has the extra power had on mechanical reliability? Both 500 and 750 watt kits are identical...

    New Bafang Crank-Drives

    Brake sensors that EM3EV carry work quite well. Not only do they work well but the supplier is great. :)

    Bafang BBSxx - fault finding and fixes

    EM3EV rocks!! Paul has decided that the controller is at fault and will ship out a new one as soon as they have stock. He also noted that it will be one of the new 25 amp units programmed to 18 amps for added reliability. Any concerns about service and contact have been more than adequately...

    Bafang BBSxx - fault finding and fixes

    As suggested I had Maureen disconnect Ebrakes and throttle one at a time and see if motor would power up on pas. Yes, pas fit was checked first. No evidence of electrical life was observed. :cry: Paul from EM3EV has suggested trying a known good display before assuming the controller is...

    Bafang BBSxx - fault finding and fixes

    Told Maureen to check this thread and follow up suggestions. Will be interesting if it is one of the HMBS brake sensors. Rather interesting how one always goes with the worst case scenario. Thanks

    Bafang BBSxx - fault finding and fixes

    Daughter just emailed me. Her new BBS02 500WATT 48volt kit (one week old) isn't functioning. Display (961) works, indicates that there is 75 percent battery available. Display shows PAS changes but no power and throttle is no functional. She put 35 kilometers on Saturday. Controller failure...

    I have a two year old Igo Urban and need some advice. Control panel is labeled Tonaro with battery level, light switch and mode switch for three levels of assist. Wires coming out of the panel are red, blue, yellow, green, black and white. Bike seems to function normally except for headlight...

    New Bafang Crank-Drives

    Colour me embarrassed. :oops: Never saw anything about the need to hold power button down. My CA3 comes on as soon as I switch the battery on. As everyone says quality from Paul, well I have to include Grin and Ezee in that statement as well. Cheerio and thanks :D

    New Bafang Crank-Drives

    Installled a new 48 volt 500 watt BBS02 model on my daughters bike. Kit is from EM3EV including frame battery. Initial turn on of the battery got a dead display, no response from throttle. Brought the bike back home and bought a multimeter. Confirm battery is fully charged. Tomorrow I will...

    BBS02 Reliability?

    Hi folks Would anybody care to comment on the BBS02's reliability/longevity specifically the 48 volt 500 watt model? I am running an Ezee kit and am quite happy. My daughter asked me to recommend a kit for her new commuter bike and to keep the cost down (she is frugal (cheap)). Commute will be...

    Cycle Analyst V3 preview and first beta release

    Yah, tried to get a plug and play potentiometer from Grin when I ordered my Ezee kit but they're out of them. Not sure if they are going to carry them again. Thank you for prompt reply. Back to limits on aux with zero percent as level one on switch does the trick. Justin indicated that three...

    Cycle Analyst V3 preview and first beta release

    I have set the CA3 to three presets with a Grin three position switch for selection. Low is set to PAS disabled, medium to auto-pas 100 watts, high to auto-pas 250 watts. I want to be able to maximize exercise hence no assist and then be able to quickly switch to an assist level consistent...

    Design/History of BMC, MAC, Ezee (Upgrades)

    I can't find a thread about the design differences between these three manufacturers. I did follow the one regarding Mac splitting off from BMC but nothing about Ezee. Visually they appear to triplets from the same womb. It would also be of interest if someone knows if there is any work being...

    MAC 10T vs Ezee

    Anyone want to comment on the plus minus's of these two motors? Interested in comparative hill climbing power at 48 volts, water resistance, reliability and longevity. EM3EV and Grin Technology both have very good reputations on the forum. I am looking at geared hubs for help with hills, cardiac...

    PAS Break Down

    Hi, Noobie here. I have a 2012 Igo Electric Urban which is not providing power at the thirty % assist level. Distributor support is very poor so an assist in where to start trouble shooting would be appreciated. I sometimes feel as if the power momentarily cuts out at other assist levels. Since...
