    Time for a bigger trike - which BBS02?

    Thanks for the suggestions. The handlebar mount looks like it could work if grinding the paint off the bars doesn't work. If I choose to cut and extend the cable is it obvious which cable attaches to which when reconnecting, ie are they different colours? I have a fear of cutting the cable...

    Time for a bigger trike - which BBS02?

    Hello - having fun with the install today. Motor has gone on nicely and the trike has a handy mount to put a torque arm on to prevent spinning and cable fouling. Thats the good news, I am having a bit more fun with the speed sensor which looks like it will be a bit awkward to mount and...

    Time for a bigger trike - which BBS02?

    Thanks for the suggestions - I am going to start with the BBS02 as its easy to fit and if it doesn't have the oomph needed I'll look into how to mount a hub motor. Due to the design it's not easy to run a hub motor option on the rear wheels. Cheers

    Cargo trike motor upgrade advice

    Thinking ahead to installing this when this arrives. I like a simple set up, no pas just throttle, no brake cut outs just a switch / way if disabling the kit when leaving the bike. Can I set it up without PAS? Anything to be aware if when installing torque arms? Cheers
