Just a little update after 1 month of commuting : - I rode 500 km at an average pace of 29 km / h with the current set up - The battery capacity barely enough to make a round trip full throttle so I learned to use the throttle gently - The wear on the bike is important, gears and brakes are...

These batteries seems great indeed, if anyone get one it would be great to check if they can deliver 20 amp continous discharged as advertised ( I have the older bottle battery design with a 10 amp continous and it's weak ...) Asked on the chat about the coutinous discharge rate and they...

Funny story, yesteday on the way back I took a shorcut offroad and run into a dead end, the road was blocked pretty much 400 meter before getting home ... I got a little lost and made some deadly detour and the battery run out after descending to the nearest village and I had to up 200 meter...

Thanks for all the comments. I'm up to 85 km on the bike in 2h25min with is quite good IMHO. Last friday I took another route which involved more elevation but with a lower steep. Made it in less time but it was more difficult and took a heavy toll on my legs. attached the profile and paces...

Between 30 and 40 Km/h and it seems pretty high indeed, I tried so simulate this set up with the e bike simulator and it should fall around 28 km/h with a 10 amp output, and with 16 amp output the speed should be around 36 km/h (see attachment) Maybe the BMS on the battery is not limiting the...

Hi Everyone ! Sorry for the late response ... crazy weeks .... So at last I've tried out the bike, should have planned a little test run but I did not find the time and just commuted to work yesterday. attached are the details of my trip, around 26 km round trip with some serious...

Cables and connectors are definitely a dig challenge for beginners. Decent soldering skills could be useful to fit cable length and solder the cables directly on the PCB. It's not easy at all but it would be neat. For future work I will invest in cheap cramping tools but I would very like to be...

Thanks for the tip, I will try do to something about it when I will fix the flat tire. For now I have two "child security gate" ( don't really know how that translate to English ) to install and some modding to do to allow the cat to go through ... Damn cat

Thanks I understand better the issue. I will try Silicon or maybe I can fit a heatshrink tube. I don't think I can the necessary cable length to change the orientation ...

Hi d8veh ! Thanks for your feedback, it is indeed more time consuming than I expected but you are right it is very satisfying when you get to a point when the wheel spins :-) I will let you know how sensorless works out for me. Concerning the axle, is it cosmetics or mandatory ? Because I don't...

converting thread isup and running here : http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/bms-battery-36v-front-wheel-with-bottle-battery-installation-and-review.17971/

All right ! So to installation ... First I mounted the motorized wheel to the front. Nothing to difficult apart from the C washer provided that did not fit between the fork. Would have needed to bend the fork to fit them so I installed them outside of the fork. As the output of the...

Thanks for your replies, I am also worried about the output of the battery .... But I did not want to go straight to high output batteries as the price tag is significantly higher and I do want to involve some pedaling as I also need to lose some weight, the basic idea is that my commuting is...

Hi everyone ! Post edited, it is indeed a 26" bike and matching 26" wheel, my mistake ... I'm actually almost done with installation and I will update with details later one. The wheel run but lot of frustration involved with installation... Mostly due to lack of instructions and cable...

Hi everyone ! I am starting a new thread to share my thought on the 36v front wheel with bottle battery with s06p controller included. As this was my first conversion I went for this kit that has everything to get going ...
