    Bafang BBS02 chain line

    Think I may have found the answer. Thank you Google :) http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=65946

    Bafang BBS02 chain line

    That's good to know, in a bizarre good way. I think a chain ring with a bit more offset would sort the problem. Have you come across anything in this forum or Endless Sphere, on whether different offset chain rings are available?

    Bafang BBS02 chain line

    The Bafang chain ring is 48t, which is exactly the same as the largest front derailleur ring that I took off. I do think that it is an offset thing though.

    Bafang BBS02 chain line

    This has probably been covered already and I'm sure I have read something somewhere before, but I can't seem to find any threads on it. Fitted a Bafang BBS02 kit to an 8 speed cassette mountain bike today. It wasn't all plain sailing though, but I'll highlight that in another thread, when my...

    UK Supplier for BBS02 750w?

    Good to hear. Who did you buy from in the end, which version did you get and did you need any special tools to tighten the Bafang bottom bracket lock rings?

    Who's good with Microsoft Excel 2003?

    I've got some large Excel spreadsheets, where I want to isolate just the rows which contain certain words. Is there a way of inputting my criteria, so that it shows just the rows with those words?

    Lezyne Sport Drive HV Mini Pump (Non ABS Flex Hose)

    I think the ABS system is there for easy removal of the hose from a Presta valve, and not just to let air back out of the inner tube: Skip to around 135 seconds for details

    Inner tube that isn't a complete circle

    Yeah, they still do them, but not in MTB sizes. There's a seller on eBay, who is selling a pair of them for £12.15 with free delivery, which seems quite reasonable to me: Gaadi inner tubes I only intend in carrying one as a get home solution, where I will fit a standard tube. Unfortunately, I...

    Inner tube that isn't a complete circle

    Blimey that was quick. Thanks for the info :)

    Inner tube that isn't a complete circle

    I wasn't sure how to title this, but I am after one of those inner tubes where you don't need to take the wheel off to fit. 26" x 2.1" or as close as possible. It's more like a sausage with an air valve and only requires the tyre to be levered off on one side to fit. Someone will know where...

    BBS01 Cube SL Road Pro conversion and long distance commuting

    This one's the budget version, although not quite as stealthy:

    BBS01 Cube SL Road Pro conversion and long distance commuting

    Stealthy yeah, but assistance? Mmmmmmmmm :rolleyes: '' the unit provides somewhere in the vicinity of 110W to the driveshaft ''

    Trek recall One million bikes

    Am I missing something here? Can't the QR skewer be inserted, so that the lever is on the opposite side of the brake disc? I don't own a Trek, but my Ridgeback has the disc on the left side and the QR lever on the right. I always align the lever vertical with the fork anyway, so the lever...

    Lezyne Sport Drive HV Mini Pump (Non ABS Flex Hose)

    Lezyne Sport Drive HV Mini Pump (Non ABS Flex Hose) Please bear in mind that this product was used with Schrader valves. I did not test it with Presta! Nor does it come with the Air Bleed System (ABS) hose. Although I understand that the ABS system is only really useful for Presta valves...

    BBS01 Cube SL Road Pro conversion and long distance commuting

    Great write up Michael. Good looking, stealthy set-up :) When you've got a moment, could you post a close up piccy of the hydraulic brake cut-off, and explain how they're attached and also the distance of the magnet from the sensor for reliable working. Thanks ;)

    Bafang BBS02 48v 750w issues???

    Got a BBS02 48v 750w kit and battery from Eclipse, arriving within the next few days. Have ordered the hydraulic brake cut-offs too, so should be in a position to write a review on the whole set-up, once I've given it a good ride out.

    These conversion kits give me the willies

    When I see kits advertised, that are capable of propelling a bicycle to over 60 mph, it really brings me out in a cold sweat. SUPER HUB 5000W HUB MOTOR Electric bike kit 100KPH+ VERY FAST My previous MAC motor bike was capable of around 27mph on the flat, and I certainly would not want to be...

    Can someone recommend a decent mini pump please

    Pulled the trigger on a Lezyne Sport Drive HV pump from CRC. Only £13.49 with free delivery. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this thread and helped me make an informed decision. Will write a short review on the pump, once I have received it and given it a try.

    Can someone recommend a decent mini pump please

    Can someone confirm if the Lezyne ABS (Air Bleed System) feature is only really used with the Presta valves, and I could go for their Sport Drive HV pump instead. Why pay for a feature that I won't use.

    Can someone recommend a decent mini pump please

    Thanks for explaining the HP and HV description of their pumps. Very handy to know :)
