Amazing video, thanks for the link John. Justin is incredibly knowledgeable, yet so humble at the same time.

That is so cool Franck :)

And the numbers for the EuroMillions tonight are 5, 6, 17, 33 and 42. Lucky stars 2 and 5 :D

Yep, I meant Xipi Frank, no offense to you mechaniker, your english is excellent too :oops:

Crystal ball ;)

Welcome to the forum. Hope you find the information you are looking for on the GSM kit. BTW, your english is actually better than some members on this forum lol How we miss Frank :p

Paul's a good bloke to buy from. Here's some stock settings that he usually ships the units with: http://electric-fatbike.com/2015/06/26/a-hackers-guide-to-programming-the-bbs02/ Note the ' Keep Current ' set at 60%, so you won't be getting all the oomph when using PAS modes. I changed mine...

Yep, 42T is the way to go. The improved chainline helps too. Just out of interest, was yours programmed by the vendor, or have you tinkered with the programming yourself?

The phrase 'greased lightning' springs to mind :D I can't see the point of the BBSHD, as the BBS02 48v 25A climbs just about anything. Many people use the BBS02 with stock factory settings, and don't realise that they are limited to just over half the available power. I've reprogrammed mine...

Anyone planning on building a bike using the Bafang BBSHD motor soon? Judging by the amount of torque this beasty puts out, a high quality bike with a strong drivetrain will be needed.

Nah, bet he rode home. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, as they say lol

Yep, do that every time I put it away. It suggests doing this in the supplied instructions too.

I only use my torque wrench to tighten the crank arm bolts, and tighten everything else by feel. Does anyone use a torque wrench to tighten all the nuts and bolts on their bike? I'm just wondering if there would be fewer creaks and rattles if everything was correctly torqued, and whether...

Oldgitst, have a little play with this motor simulator tool. http://www.ebikes.ca/tools/simulator.html As you change different parameters, you can actively see how they may affect how the bike performs on the road.

That's true, but it can also depend on how much current the motor receives, motor winding, battery voltage etc... If for example you had a rear hub motored bike, coupled with a 48v battery, 50 amp controller and speed limited to 15.5mph. Then due to the massive amount of torque/power available...

Yes, solar panels integrate nicely on a recumbent. I think the guy in the thread has a normal bike. Not such an easy task. I'd love to ride a recumbent here in UK, but with all the trucks and road ragers, wouldn't expect a long life cycle. Sorry, that was a poor attempt at a joke :)

Is this bike front/rear hub motor driven or crank/central drive type? I'll let someone else answer this one, but each type will affect what answer you get ;)

https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=74691 I have visions of him riding around with some kind of solar panel umbrella hat on :D

Don't suppose it's still under warranty? :rolleyes:

Probably packed with cheap LiPo's and no BMS :eek:
