Certainly more wear/tear and a shorter maintenance schedule then the hub bike drive chain. I think it depends on ones power and strength, I found for me the BBS01 wasn't much better then a hub for when things got tough. I would still be struggling along at 5mph on inclines, once my energy...

What config are you going to use Tony 10s 4p or 13s 3p ?

Moli also have two other large mah cells, the P45B /4500mah another high a rated cell of over 30a rating and the M50A /5000mah a 10- 15a rated cell. The P45B is said to out perform and be better then the P42A but isn't available just yet, it is expected possibly by the end f the year. It is...

Cells sitting at 3.51v which is prety much that which all cells I have had are charged to from the factory. By most standards not many cells but then again I'm not after mega current draw or throttle usage. As nearly always the case cells come in a small compartmented box. Date code 2LB12. 2...

On throttle one would expect the wh/m or wh/km figures to be about double or more, so quite expensive depleting the battery far sooner.

Some fat bikes have an overall BB length inc the axle of 190mm.

£10 each or so on ebay. Or go to Scotland where the landlady at the tea shop will charge £2 for a battery charge.

That was 24.5 in 700c wheel size, the motor was already wound for 300 rpm so one likely would have to go to 48v in a smaller wheel size.

What current is the controlelr rating ? One assumes the climbing is done in top assist level ?

Both the BBS and Tsdz can accomodate 2x front rings, 34t being the lowest one can go. Some derailleurs don't reach over far enough, I use a an older negave (shimano) front mech to get the throw when I had BBS01 with 2x set up. One may suffer some cross chaining so not all gears may be...

JIS is the std for all square taper and believe that is what they are all made to. The thread should still be std english thread. First though one needs to remove the remnants to leave a nice cleaned up shell then one should see a 120mm measurement, as I mentioned 120 is not a common width shell.

Fat bikes aren't my thing but one assumes that is a 120mm BB, I thought most FB BB's were 100mm but tht certainly isn't. 120mm isn't common. The actual shell looks to be 120mm so I would think you need a 120mm SQR JIS BB and a square taper crank set. Don't take my word for it, you will need a...

My new cells turned up today, superb service from Ben and the team at Fogstar. Ordered one day and they arrived within 24 hrs via DPD. Cells are so scarce at the mo but they have had a fresh delivery of Molicel P42A, so I ordered 24 for a 8.4ah/369wh 44v battery build for the Kona ute/ Cotic...

It's a fat bike so looks like the BB shell is quite long, you need to measure the BB sheel width to see how long a BB you will need. Std bike sizes are 68mm though some are 73mm.

It is a bespoke part made for switch kit, although not CANbus but a proprietary bespoke part they can charge silly prices for spares as they have you by the balls. One reason I mainly steer clear of most bespoke kits where one know that spares ar eonly available from one source.

Use an individual plug in power meter between socket and charger.

The oxygen 36v Bafang CST 250w 17a controller kit topped out at 24.5mph.

Pull out the White jst connector ( with the Yellow/Red and single Black wire). You will need two needles/pins or some pcb strip pins. Place one needle in the Black wire pin location and the other in the Yellow next to it, set your meter to 20v and write down the voltage as #1. (Black probe on...

Yes the giant uses it own CANbus system, they are anti social user devices with short shelf lifes once they go wrong and costly out of warranty.

It's the same old story someone wants a legal pedelec then want to make it illegal by increasing the speed. Yesterday I was able to reach 33km/h with my 250w hub motor but that was using my own power only, my cut off speed is set for 22km/h so I get a bit more range from the battery.
