    Bafang BBS01 factory settings

    Not sure if the software is the same for that motor as bbs01:( I remember reading on ES about problems and locked firmware :mad: does the display show more details about the battery range etc if that is the case I suspect it will not mod easily as the controller is not the same

    Bafang bbs01 won’t fit mountain bike

    That's not a problem:) it is easily overcome with spacers and a California bracket and a few washers :D you can also get a spacer that moves the chain ring out on the motor this helps with chain alignment I have noticed a lot of the newer 11/12 speed bikes have such a small front single chain...
