    Bit confused on bbs01 reprogramming

    I agree I've not wound mine up to 100% keep current yet but I will probably give your settings a go when I swap the motor to the 29er..I've managed to wind my bbs01b to 18amps without trouble codes appearing and it still goes well but it did get a bit warmer so I've wound it down for now. I've...

    Bit confused on bbs01 reprogramming

    Yes I do notice what I would call a cut off point..but it's a mater of getting used to the way the power is spalled up..I call it the sweet spot of power where the cadence is just right..so sometimes you may find over pedalling makes the power dieing off. I find slowing down my cadence more...

    Bit confused on bbs01 reprogramming

    It's a bit confusing at first but once you've been in there a few times and messed with it you will understand what the settings actually do. I might even try fordulike settings..these are mine at the moment but I'm in the process of building a 29er ..so my old settings for my 26" wheeled bike...

    Next project 29er New donor bike found

    well after shopping around for a while I've ended up with this Forme peak trail 1.0 29er. It's almost too pretty to convert. Purchased locally off eBay from Andy who built it for commuting but has found a 26"mountain bike a better option. I did give him the website details. Maybe another...

    BBS01b my first 1100mile

    To be honest I don't think there is a problem with this later type motor..the controller is fitted with better FETs I think they handle the heat better than the older type..the other thing could be the type of display your using depends on how it's set to trigger the error..I've put this motor...

    BBS01b my first 1100mile

    Hi Pete I've been upping the amps and experimenting with it for a while. I've ended with 80% keep current and upping from 15 to 18amps at the controller..I reckon it might go higher. It's rated at 20. But it seems happy at 18.. A little warmer if you load it too much. But the power is a bit...

    BBS01b my first 1100mile

    Thanks yer I was going to buy a narrow wide I run 46 front. I suppose 42t give better range on hills. Sometimes I feel I'm forever changing gear going up hill and spend a lot of time on the biggest back cog.maybe a smaller front cog would stop me bogging down..but I do like a good top speed.

    BBS01b my first 1100mile

    Hi it's been a while since I posted on here due to the fact I spend far to much time rideing my bike lol. It's been great and I would recommend the BBS01b system coupled with a fairly good battery it's been reliable and apart from me messing with the parameters on the laptop it's been great. I'm...

    I've not been out on the bike for about a week..too bloody busy..trying to keep her in doors happy with garden work lol..time to sell some more bits to enable the next build..yer I might be interested in that 350 if you don't use it..but I think it would make a nice machine matched to a belt...

    BBS01b 250w15amp or 350w 18amp

    Hi Pete sounds like your having fun with the new setup then lol yer it's a bit of compromise with batteries..go too big and they are bloody heavy..just about getting the balance correct for what your doing with it..I've managed to get a 29er Marin used ..needs a bit of work but only £40.00 so...

    BBS01b 250w15amp or 350w 18amp

    Thanks woosh I'm already using the 250w unit on my carrera kraken 26" wheels but I wanted the know if there was any real difference in power from 250 to 350.

    BBS01b 250w15amp or 350w 18amp

    Yes I could go with the 500w 36v version but I don't want 2 hundred weight of battery to power it. And really I don't go mad off road that often.. More importantly I would still like to know the real difference in these motors.

    BBS01b 250w15amp or 350w 18amp

    Hi I'm looking at building my next mid drive 29er and would like to know the difference between the 250 and 350w motor apart from the obvious. I've noticed the motors are advertised as bbs01b 250w 13T and the other is bbs01b 350w 13T.. Can I assume the motors are identical and the controllers...
