    Torque sensor crank drive

    on CD kits, it's the current that counts. 25A beats 18A beats 15A.

    Kappstein 3 speed motor

    I thought the torque sensor output is always used in conjuction with the cadence sensor.

    Torque sensor crank drive

    bmsbattery quoted 80NM max. for their CD motor. That's equivalent to BBS01 programmed for 18A.

    What's the best 250 watt...

    the BBS01 must be the most popular kit here. Dozens of members have or have had it. I used one myself, one of the first ones, 3 years ago. This one is a recent lightweight conversion with BBS01 in the spirit of the Gtech (no gear, no grease, no adjustment, no wire) with a 2-speed SRAM automatix:

    it's the same Bafang BPM, same 20A Lishui controller. The rear motor wheel is suspended, no broken spoke as far as I know.

    the CST kit will be upgraded by the end of April, beginning of May. The new controller is integrated to the base of the HL battery, like on the woosh Karoo. Much neater wiring.

    Eastern Power?

    oh, no, I don't want you to feel bad about it. I have dealt in the past with quite a few Chinese and Taiwanese suppliers and only got shafted just once. More often, it's a case of lost in translation, if I forgot for example to specify a bottom bracket and you can guess, what could happen did...

    I'm going to save the Ogre!

    it hardly justifies the effort unless you start from a good or very good base. You could spend £500-£600 to convert your Raleigh Max Ogre Raleigh Max Ogre: compare the result with a ready built Woosh Karoo that you can buy for £749. Woosh Karoo: http://wooshbikes.co.uk/?karoo you can...

    Eastern Power?

    I don't think Chinese motor suppliers lie to us. I always ask them for the motor test reports. They usually run hundreds of test cycles, with varied combinations of current and RPM, the output is measured with a normal dynometer. Here is a typical motor chart for the xiongda XD motor...

    Kappstein 3 speed motor

    It would be very interesting to see how they managed to squeeze a 3-speed gearbox and a clutch inside that motor's lid.

    Time for a bigger trike - which BBS02?

    the 3 wires have different colours. You don't have to guess.

    Schwalbe valve dust cover magnet

    a bit far for the sensor to reach.

    Time for a bigger trike - which BBS02?

    cut and extend, cover the joins with black heat shrink sleeve, will look neater.

    Riderless Ebikes?

    they would have better chance with a driverless Segway.

    check the battery output. After along period of rest, the battery may be out of balance.

    Leaving the EU

    terrorists don't recognize borders, we do. That's why it's difficult for individual member country to stop them. If we have an EU 'CTU' , we may be more successful at stopping them.
