    Single-speed e-bike?

    I've been impressed with the 2nd generation Lyft/Motivate Bikeshare single speed ebikes used in the New York and Washington DC bikeshare systems, they have a torque sensor, rear hub motor by TDCM, 52v battery, and 7A controller producing 350w peak, they pull like a champ up hills. This big...

    Folding mid drive conversion options?

    The Bike Friday Pakit has a front hub motor option that should work with any 36v battery, and lightweight at 29lb with their 230wh battery. BF use Grin Tech for their electrical systems, though it's unclear to me what hub motor and controller combination they are currently using. Like Brompton...

    Folding mid drive conversion options?

    It's difficult to identify which motor from the Tongsheng product page, but from the position of the axle it looks like a custom shell for Dahon around a TSDZ10, detuned to 200w/60Nm. The battery seatpost on the Dahon Unio is the same width 57mm as that used on the Qualisports Dolphin, however...

    Folding mid drive conversion options?

    Might the Dahon Unio E20 work for the OP? Tongsheng Class 1 mid-drive with torque sensor PAS, small seatpost battery but 36lb light as a Brompton Electric.

    Anyone know about/tried TOSEVEN Mid Drive?

    Does anyone know if the Tongsheng 1T2 cable that splits the speed sensor and light connectors is compatible with the ToSeven DM02? It seems a curious omission from the kit and was wondering if that might be an easy solution to adding ebike lights.

    Lyft yesterday returned NYC's CitiBike ebikeshare fleet to service with fixes for the faults that caused them to be withdrawn last year, including a new battery supplier, new front Sturmey Archer drum brake, with the hub motor moved to the rear - CitiBike state it is a single-speed (also...

    New York to legalize ebikes?

    The devil is in the detail. The ban on carrying children as passengers on ebikes needs writing out, you can carry a child passenger on a motorcycle in NY. Banning all ebikes from the Hudson River Greenway could cause problems its a north-south commuting route. Hopefully police will stop...

    Speed sensor insulation rubbed off - what repair tape?

    On my way into work I heard a high pitched friction whine coming from somewhere on the bike, when I got to work I discovered my BBS01 speed sensor had rotated in its zip tie to face against the tire and it has rubbed through the rubber insulation. I was thinking when I get home of wrapping duct...

    BBS01a controller question

    I’ve found the supplier from whom I bought my BBS01a no longer has any controllers for that model. On another forum someone suggested the controller from a BBS02a will work as a replacement, just checking is this true? Are there any drawbacks or things to watch out for if swapping out the 02...

    5.5mm barrel male to xt60 male cable suggestions sought

    Good question, I don't know but it seems a generic bottle pack that plugs into this cradle.

    5.5mm barrel male to xt60 male cable suggestions sought

    I've not noticed the barrel heating up, but it makes a spark when it's plugged in. The charger gets warm in the bag. I have a 2A charger if you think this is a fools errand.

    5.5mm barrel male to xt60 male cable suggestions sought

    Hello, I want to charge an ebike battery in a battery bag but I need a flexible replacement connector cable from the battery to the charger. I use a 5.5mm barrel male to xt60 male cable to connect a 36V Luna battery pack to the Luna charger. However the barrel end is very poor quality, mine...
