So far Ive Tested GNG, Cyclone, Bafang Mid drives.
However I much Prefer Bosch/ Yamaha Mid drives for trail riding as natural bike control as I find it so much more fun than trying to match pedal turns with a twisting a throttle.

Are there any aftermarket kits available?
 
I totally agree, and I cannot understand why this haven't gotten more attention.
With my LR GNG, this was my biggest gripe.

Just making a wheelie up to a sidewalk is difficult when the motor first has to catch up with the pedal cadence, before it will assist with more power.
This makes the motor power input timing difficult.

One thing is torque sensing crank for PAS like the Bosh/Yamaha, another thing is torque throttle, like current control instead of voltage control.
This makes the motor spin up faster as there is no resistance, but as it catches up with pedal cadence, it starts applying power.

A solution on this for the Bafang BBSHD would be great!
 
Funny that Bafang has the technology for torque sensing mid drives (they offer it in their Max drive OEM system) but they haven't brought it to their retrofit kits...
