Aliexpress 20% cashback on every purchase today with Topcashback

Sorry guys, it was definitely 20% this morning when I looked, they had dropped it to 6% shorty after I posted. Hopefully they'll have the 20% back on sometime soon. I'll cue up a motor in my basket ready when I find a uart supplier Cheers

Hi all I see that topcashback.co.uk are offering 20% cashback on Aliexpress today. Been thinking about getting a spare Bafang BBS01b 36v 250w motor (either bare drive or full kit) Does anyone know of a trusted AliExpress seller still supplying Uart versions of the motor? Many thanks

Probably the cheapest new mid-drive bike available, only available in small size. £799 minus any discount codes/ cashback https://www.ultimateoutdoors.com/19663677/viking-city-trekking-comfort-e-bike-19663677 Step thru version...

EDIT_ Looks faulty after reading description if anyone fancies taking a punt on a 2nd hand motor... https://www.pswpower.com/products/second-hand-tsdz8-tongsheng-mid-drive-motor-kit-750w-engine-with-torque-sensor-for-ebike-376

Surely 9kg is the weight of the whole kit? Even that would seem a lot, perhaps not lightweight afterall...

And some people have and are. Just greedy

It's all just opinions. Like arseholes, everyone's got one

All hypothetical, and not relevant to me, both my bbs01b motors are both ultra reliable and customisable, and once I purchase a uart controller as a spare then that'll serve me well if they fail. And if the spare eventually fails, and I get fed up with DIY or tinkering I'll probably just go to...

The beauty of a mid drive is that the controller is contained within the motor, why would anyone feel the need to faff about and try and cobble together with an external controller, especially if you don't need too? When there's suitable replacement controllers available at 50-60 quid in the...

I think the old version, bbs01 without the b suffix was the one that was unreliable. The newer bbs01b versions comes without and with a front light and gear sensor cables, I have one of each, both super reliable and of course uart and fully configurable for keep current and support up to 20a

I've got my eye on this, about £50 delivered with discount code UKEXC07 Have yet to confirm if deffo UART I just found this on AliExpress: ￡57.79 | Bafang Mid Motor BBS G340 36V350W 36V250W Controller BBS01 BBS02 Motor Controller https://a.aliexpress.com/_EuYIylu

If you find deal on a bbs01b 250w controller let me know, I'll nab a spare for my 2 bikes with these motors. I dunno if this new can bus can be changed for settings like keep current etc, I'm not so interested in increasing max speed but the power was woeful out of the box until i tweaked keep...

Hub motors are great Mid-drives are great E-bikes are great The END.
