    Bbshd realistic range on full power

    Hmm i wonder then if i went wrong before.My bbs01 350w has a 17.4 ah battery made of samsung 29E cells.I never get more than 27miles with plenty of full throttle on hills (quite hilly here). Its always puzzled me how others say they get that from batteries of only 10 or 11ah.Are those cells...

    BBS01b my first 1100mile

    Just the standard bbs01 350w its 18amp .The 250w is max 15amp.No programming.The 350w is 18-18.5amp on full throttle.I checked it with my watt meter. Im waiting for some feedback on the bbshd before deciding.I dont want to find they drain a 17.5ah battery after 15 miles.Wish i could afford a...

    Intermittent assist and throttle BBS01

    Thats def not right. Disconecting the throttle is the way to go.U will be amazed at the times people inc me had an issue and that solved it.My bbs01 issue was only fully solved with a replacement controller under the warrenty.Disconnecting the throttle worked but i wanted pas and throttle

    BBS01b my first 1100mile

    I find its perfectly good on my 17t- 19t going up hills, typicaly 12mph.U can peddle faster an the motors spinning fast.Only on very steep hills do i have to drop another to the 24t but still 9mph without straining the controller.I use Full throttle 18amp tho.Better pulling away ,slow peddling...

    Bbshd realistic range on full power

    Hi tommie on 3-5 i suppose thats around the same power as my bbs01 on max ? Do you find you get 33% more range as its a 48ah of same size or is it even better if a more efficient motor. Is 48 or 52 the better choice for these,thanks

    Bbshd realistic range on full power

    Am thinking of building one of these.On a marin hc xt.Typical mtb.What a buzz that power would be.But not if you have to ride it around on PAS 1-2 all the time. I have a bbs01 350w on a giant sedona and love it.But that only gives 22-27 miles from a 17.4 ah samsung 29E. using plenty of full...

    Intermittent assist and throttle BBS01

    If your speed has exceeded the 15mph cut off and you havent changed that ,then the motor wont run til ur back under 15.When u pause peddling the motor disengages after a second.Re peddling or throttle should give a powerful sensation of torque when using full power in throttle or high pas .Def...

    Intermittent assist and throttle BBS01

    With my bbs01 350w I had some issues with pas and throttle intermittently working then not.Often after id stopped and not coming on again.This was i believe after rain affected the throttle. although it eventually improved there remained some issues whenever the throttle and even a new one was...

    Anywhere in uk/eu sell cyclone 3000w ?

    Fancied a project with one of these.Luna cycles in the usa sell them .Looked a good price too until i put one in the basket...$38 tax $100 p&p ,then no doubt a ton of uk vat/duty as they're a USA seller . Surely the manufacturers of these havent just allowed a USA vendor to sell their product...

    Bbs01 350w replacement controller shadow of the old

    My original must have been set well over 20 % and the new one just as it comes at this 20 % setting. To be honest i prefer my simple chinese iron horse.Got a watt meter as a display, an only brake an throttle connected out of the dozens of features. With its cheap as chips controller tweaked...

    Short story.Was great out of the box.A problem developed after rain drenchings.Eclipse bikes tested the controller.It was the culprit and they replaced it.They assure me its programmed as 350w 18amp. But its gutless.Its like my grans motobility scooter ,nothing like it used to be...

    Advice on bafang middrive please

    I will see if a friend can bring his laptop over. I know somethings different. On max PAS i used to reach high speed with ease and climb hills with a smile.I only get that now if i hold the throttle down .Which i keep doing ,so i dont end up with a greater range as a positive trade off.
