    How hard is it for the sales manager to call someone up at the factory and ask to whatapps a few pictures? If the thing is ready for sale, then why should it matter to release the pics a few days before they ship? I buy from China, Taiwan and Singapore for 50 years or so, I always found the...

    I would have, but Alex is their sales manager. I would have to deal with him.

    I have been interested in what to7 do since the start of the thread, so I am not hostile to what they do. However, I ran into a spat with their rep, AlexfNoble, in this thread. I did make some commercial enquiries about their products, not directly with alexfnoble@toseven because I dread having...

    I am looking for a partner to produce an add-on torque sensor for the BBS01

    I have an idea for an add-on torque sensor for the BBS01 but being half retired, I don't want to do all the work. Is there anyone interested in developing this project with me? The work involves prototyping and travelling to China. If it's you, expect no pay until the project works out. I cover...

    I used the Bafang MaxDrive in my Woosh Rambla. I know the MaxDrive better than the TSDZ2 because I repaired a few. Jim here repairs the TSDZ2. I am also going to sell a new TS kit this summer based on a cousin of the bafang bottom bracket torque sensor. Recently, I was looking into how one can...

    I have sold 3 torque sensor kits for hub motors, the TSDZ2 and Bafang torque sensor. All use different principles. The Bafang is best, so it seems natural to me that if someone redesigns the torque sensor for the TSDZ2, they should make one that is as good as the Bafang or its cousins. I...

    you've got me there. I did see my silly mistake and edited it out 2mn before you replied. Of course if you redesign your torque sensor, you need benchmarks.

    You could put together such products without much difficulty. They are also simple off the shelf products that have best track record of reliability.

    not quite though. Your motors are not shipping and you forgot to mention Aikema. As I said before, if you are successful, Bafang will react. Even small firms like Bewo can add a torque sensor to their kits. I have had their kits for years, I know how to do it and it's really dead easy. The...

    may be because Tongsheng has never been a threat to their market share. As saneagle said, most people just want a dependable kit and for as little money as possible. What kind of percentage do you think that the TS bottom bracket motors represent in the conversion market? whatever it is, it...

    How to find a trustworthy bike shop if…

    I learned a lot from the thread that guerney linked to. Never again. It's better to say no to a bad solution right from the start. I always make sure that the success of our customers is our success. I always make sure we know that the kit we propose is going to suit the customer and the donor...

    the king of the DIY install in a standard bottom bracket market is still very much Bafang BBSes. If someone started to cut into their market share, I am pretty sure they will release their TS versions.

    my concerns about any new low cost products from China: Fortune cookies or lucky dip Vapourware in the kind of 'yes, we've fixed it' The thing is made of cheese The thing does not survive 7 days in a salt fog test The thing rusts after a drop in a deep puddle The thing rusts after a day on...

    I dread the day I may have to give you a call. Let's not ever meet.

    the benchmark for torque sensor in any low cost TS crank drive is the straightforward bafang bottom bracket torque sensor. Also, I'd like to see a cycloidal gearbox.

    Back in 2013, I was selling a crank drive kit from BEWO Technology that I called the TCM. Here are some pictures of the Bewo parts that we still keep for servicing that I have just taken for you. Do remember that they are made 10 years ago. A lot of progress have been made since. Their prices...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The short answer is none at the very top. You may re-arrange them like you would with dekchairs but you can't lose them. those people at the commission are like ambassadors posted to a capital. They are there to be mouthpieces of their countries. You can't lose them unless you expell their...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    First Republic Bank has failed, taken over by FDIC and will be sold to JPMorgan. The damage will probably be born by FDIC, the taxpayers. How much more bad news that the BoE needs to come out and admit that it can't and won't push up interest rate?
