What a beautiful sight. I think we might have had one on a bike when I was a kid, haven't seen one since. Yeah, sure, if by any chance you'd part with it, let me know!

Yeah I saw those, and others on eBay from the US, but thought I'd search a bit closer to home to save some on shipping and any taxes. Thanks though

Yeah I suspected that. Purchased a 7 speed from him a couple of years ago if I'm not mistaken.

Hi. Looking for either a DNP Epoch 8 speed 11-34 freewheel, or the fabled Shimano Megarange 11-34 7 speed freewheel(or equivalent). Let me know if you've got one for sale! Simon

Yeah I know, my folding bike with 20" wheels and BBS02 500w 7 speed seems indestructible anyway, it's crazy how I've punished this bike. Rear wheel cost something like £30, and all it does is climbing the steepest hills possible whithout falling backwards, with 34t front and 36t rear. Why I'm...

Wow those Chris King are pricey. Well I guess you're right, one gets what one pays for. I found that CRC sells custom wheels with Hope hubs, and they seemed more in my price range. On eBay I found a few wheels with Hope hubs, too.

Hi. Want to put my bbs02 on a new-ish MTB(27.5", 142x12), but destroyed the freehub last time I tried. Need a new wheel with the most torque resistant freehub I can find. Anyone have experience with hubs and bbs02? Could order a custom wheel from the UK to where I live in Italy. Cheers, Simon

So I got a reply about the RPM, and it's 148. Waiting for a reply about the reduction ratio.

Thanks for explaining. Still waiting for reply about the Panda motor, RPM etc. Will update.

I So I'll see what Panda says about the rpm on their 500w. The controller is 22 amps max which would be 792, about the same as the q128h at 17 amps 48 volts. The Panda controller is "rated" at 11 amps. Does that mean it's not really meant for running at 20+ for too long?

I got an email back saying the RPM of all their motors is "32kph divided by the radius of the wheel diameter of each motor size" I forgot to mention that he said earlier that their 500w motors deliver about 40nm of torque. I also asked if they would tell me the make etc of the motor, will update...

Yeah, I've asked now so I'll update when they've specified the rpm etc. Thanks again

Thanks for the suggestion, although I'd like to order from the UK because of warranty returns etc. Had nice experiences with Woosh bikes and others. I saw this kit from Panda Bikes, Panda-500 Pro, how would that compare to the one you mentioned? Of course any similar kit sold in the UK, like the...

Hi all. Looking into buying a kit for a friend and since I haven't tried a 500w geared hub motor kit myself I'd appreciate some advice. In theory, my friend could really use a mid drive, but she's technophobic, and even with a gear sensor to help with not destroying the drivetrain, I'm sure she...

Hi, I'm looking for the same thing, can you share what you found out regarding the mosfets on the controller from BMSbattery?
