Brake levers bafang compatible?

[Håkon]

Hi,

On my GT Zascar I'm currently using Formula hydraulic brakes without a sensor. Are there any brake handels out there compatible with bafang at a decent price? Must I change disc and levers, or just levers?

if you have a BBS kit, you can use stick on brake sensors like this:

If you have another kit, give us details of the kit, you may be able to use this one:

There are only a few sensored hydraulic brakes, mainly from Tektro and Zoom.
I can sell you those, but they are 3 times more expensive than Shimano equivalents because of small volume production.
This picture shows the Tektro sensored brakes:

by the time you wire it up, it won't look half as good.

I bet if Hope made sensored hydraulic brakes, they'd will look just as gorgeous!
I suppose the OP will have just to cap the brake sensor connectors.

Actually this is an excellent point on a bbs01

If you have got too much run on (motor keeps going after you stop pedalling ) buy a programming cable for 20 quid and reduce that value to zero

Thank you, I did what you suggested and now I am happy without sensors
