    Do you use a helmet mirror?

    I have that one. It's alright in my opinion. Some annoyances I come across with is that since I put the helmet in my backpack, the mirror gets tilted and I would have to readjust it before I ride. And it could get in the way of your view depending how you set it up. It was better than handlebar...

    Anybody else use throttle only?

    That makes sense. I'll try to do that instead. Although i LOVE just using throttle and just sit there. It's more fun for me!

    Anybody else use throttle only?

    I'm wondering how the actual motor would hold up when I'm on high gear (on the pavement) for 16 miles. I don't want to do during that will harm the motor sooner than it should. Both were bought from lunacycle.

    What size chain ring should I get for Bafang BBS02?

    Mostly flat here. To clarify, is the freewheel the spikey thing in the back?

    What size chain ring should I get for Bafang BBS02?

    I have a Jamis Commuter 1 2015 that has a, I believe, a 7 speed 14-34T in the rear and I am currently using the default chain ring that came with the motor. Which I believe is a 48T. Right now, if I am at the lowest gear possible, pedaling is super loose (pedaling hard won't get me anywhere...

    Connecting battery to Bafang BBS02 motor?

    So I was planning on using waterproof butt splices to connect the motor and battery. I already ordered the butt splice on amazon a few days ago, but today I just received my battery and motor and realized that the cables are different sizes. The butt splice says Blue 14-16 gauge. The cable on...

    Is this a good bike choice for a bafang bbs02 conversion?

    Thank you! That would open me with other options that are aluminum instead of steel. What is a bbsx set up?? And just to clarify, the bafang wiki is this https://endless-sphere.com/w/index.php/EBike_Motors_Middrive correct?

    Is this a good bike choice for a bafang bbs02 conversion?

    Ah I do apologize for not mentioning my speed that I would be going. I'm sure I would want more speed but that won't be for a while. So I think I'm good about that.

    Is this a good bike choice for a bafang bbs02 conversion?

    Thanks for the offer. But I'm still new to all this and I would prefer just building the motor and battery for now.

    Is this a good bike choice for a bafang bbs02 conversion?

    I actually decided to get this one now: http://www.myjamis.com/jamis/consumer/bike.html?year=2015&model=Commuter%201&cat_grp=strt_1 It has a steel frame so should be strong enough. I don't plan on going more than 20 mph on it so regular brakes should work fine?

    Is this a good bike choice for a bafang bbs02 conversion?

    I don't plan on doing over 30mph. Just around 15-20mph. Maybe 25mph.

    Need some serious help which battery will fit??

    Would it be possible if you can give me some pictures with a measuring device next to it? And maybe a measurement of your down, top, and seat post. Would really appreciate it. Might need to look for a new bike. :/

    Need some serious help which battery will fit??

    If you took a look at the pictures given in the lunacycle, those are the diagram I used to make the cardboard. Tried measuring the total of battery and mount. As for sliding the battery in and out... probably no room if at all. lol If you look at the picture i provided with the cardboard in the...

    Need guidance on what motor to get

    Thank you for that! Would it be better if I do the water proof butt splice to connect the battery/motor to a XT90-S connector set with pigtails ? Or should I solder the XT90-S connector with the battery? I prefer doing the butt splice for simplicity and also so that I don't buy more things than...
