Working in music production, I am more than familiar with the 'old school' at first sneering at new technology, then accepting it, then adopting it. To this extent I recognise and empathise with what e-MTBers are going through now, in terms of broad approval and acceptance. I, for one, am very...

Oooh, I'd like to see that!! Are you chopping the frame up to fit the battery, or, as I understand it, slotting them into the frame somehow??

Magic string? I've heard of magic mushrooms, but string is a new one on me - Oh well, I'll try anything once! Cheers

Hahaha! I guess it would keep you warm! :D:D:D

That seems like the best solution. Who would I need to contact at BGA for custom made batteries? Loving the bash guard too!

Thanks SW...Some of this I understood - the rest; not so much! Bear with me, I'm a newbie!

Ahh...programming - that seems to be another hot potato. I think I'll leave that until the damned thing is on the bike and working!:)

Just out of interest Steve: I'm planning to have the battery in my rucksack - mainly for aesthetic reasons, but also so as not to attract too much attention. What's your opinion on this?

Ain't that the truth brother, ain't that the truth!:D

Depends who you listen to! Some e bike sites insist that the 500 + 750 are exactly the same motor... I don't have a clue!

...and with the black locking ring too. Hmmm

I think that the 500W is favourite, but given that one might as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb, I might now consider the 750W...

Thanks for the info guys.

Well...have I stepped on a land-mine, or what!!?? It just so happens that one of 'the two obvious choices' has indeed got back to me this evening, so I know where my money is going now...This is clearly a very influential site!!! All joking aside, I am really grateful for the helpful nature on...

Just to see if it fits my 73mm BB, before I shell out on a new one! Obvs, I'll pay for postage etc... ;)

Oh, believe me, I'd rather shop 'locally', but trying to get any consistent advice - or any advice at all, seems to be nigh-on impossible. No response from either of the two obvious places to buy mid-drive Bafangs. Like I said, I'm seriously considering a move into this marketplace since it is...

That's a beaut! The Rockhopper is the latest 2017 model and yes, it s going to be the donor bike. I'm going to trawl ebay for a 'spares only' 8-fun, if such a thing exists, just so that I can do a trial fit before blowing £600 - £700!

I wish I could borrow one just to see if it flippin' fits!! :) Ace bike, BTW!

I'm curious because the power to shift my 250lbs/113kg weight, plus the bike, is my main worry. Speed is a secondary issue, although it would be fun to be able to temporarily de-limit the thing, under appropriate circumstances. I'm at the research stage at the moment, although I'm edging...

Yes, I had a look, but couldn't find anything specific to an 'over wattage' motor.
