+1 for the triangular battery packs.

Think they're getting a bit cranky about the original topic :rolleyes:

Yeah, Suzhou Bafang would do so much more business if they were more generous with their product info. It's been like that for years. You try getting an e-mail reply from them. More chance of winnng the lottery :D

If the controller can handle 48v, then that would boost the performance to a decent level. Let's hope this kit doesn't go the way of the GNG crank drive, which turned out to have a fair few teething problems. Need this kit to be robust from the word go ;)

Looks exciting, should have Bafang quality too. Mmmmmm, so tempting to go mid-drive.... decisions decisions :p

I totally agree d8veh, for commuting, torque is what you need and not speed. The faster winds would always be out of their efficiency sweet spot, lots of bogging down and wasted energy. Mine will hit 26mph, but I wouldn't feel comfortable any faster. The 3 speed switch tames throttle response...

And 34mph is bad because.... :p Seriously though, bilabonic, please take the safety issue of Lipo into account. The em3ev Samsung battery will be very robust and almost bulletproof. That's the way Paul makes them. I know I'd rather go for that, than have half a dozen Lipos jingly jangling...

If money is no barrier, then I would personally go for one of these: 50V 18.5Ah Samsung Triangle Pack Paul, who runs em3ev, provides excellent after-sales, which you are unlikely to get from BMS BUTTERY- spelling intentional :D The triangle battery would fit in perfectly in your 18" frame.

I'm running a MAC 10T @ 48v with a 9 fet 30A controller. It powers up the steepest hill I encounter, which is 17%. The controller is inside a bag, and neither controller or motor have overheated or failed in over 1500 miles. I run this bad boy hard. If you are planning on using any kit on long...

If you want a bike that eats hills for breakfast: MAC 12T rear 12 fet 40A controller 48v battery, capable of supplying 40A continuous 2 x torque arms emv3ev's Samsung battery fits neatly into the frame, and located exactly where you need a big pack to be: 50V 18.5Ah Samsung...

Ooooh charming, I was only asking for advice lol :p

My steam cleaner works great on clearing the muck from all kinds of surfaces, but would it be safe to use it to clean a bike? I'm more concerned about the steam being able to permeate in places that water alone might not reach. That said, the steam seems to disappear quite quickly from the...

If you've recently had your bike nicked... Gum Tree... that's the place it'll be lol :D

Hee hee, this had me giggling for ages :D

E.Motion AirControl Maybe this one then lol :D

E.Motion AirControl

I was always led to believe that you connect the charging leads to the battery, and then plug the charger into the wall socket and switch on. Then I read this thread on E.S. and now I'm a little confused on which way round is the safe way: Endless-sphere.com • View topic - Massive shock...

Hey, I wonder if you could angle these downwards to make the bike weightless :p

A neat feature is you can drag the centre line on the picture of the tunnel, left or right, to get a full lighting view of individual products.

Stumbled across this neat bike light review and comparison webpage, whilst searching for a suitable commuting light. Scroll down to around a third way down the page for the interactive comparison viewer: Review: Lezyne Macro Drive front light | road.cc | Road cycling news, Bike reviews...
