    Advice please for a "commuter bike"

    the Byocycles Zest, with a free upgrade to 11ah (worth £150) for a limited time, come in slightly over budget at £1099, however most shops would let you pay the £99 difference. 2 year warranty, Samsung battery cells, all branded components, and would easily cope with 20 miles a day!

    Bafang Max Drive bikes

    Monster is correct. Theoretical top speed: At 100% efficiency (185RPM) on a 26" wheel with a 44t front and 11t rear chainring it's possible to achieve 57.2mph. Assume the motor is 70% efficient, and 40.1mph is a potential top speed.

    Battery Lead for a Byocycles Zest

    Check the speed sensor is aligned with the magnet! Apologies for the mis-advice with the cable, it's been a while since I've looked at a Zest battery, as we no longer repair them in house.

    Possibly quite embarrassing, however I've actually been developing websites for the past 10 years! (mainly backend PHP, Javascript etc).. However with everything else I do at Byocycles, it's impossible to find even an hour a day to develop a new one. Hence why we've just employed a web developer...

    Interesting fact in that Maxxis tyres are made by CST!

    Our new website will have live stock pulled in from our ERP software! The current website is just some images and text, for some reason the previous web developer decided to use wordpress, then build the whole front page in html & css, which is why we're changing it. Its not user or SEO friendly!

    As a last point, the exchange rate can't be helped, the price hadn't been adjusted on the website, because the bike isn't here. The sample is now sold, as are the two Zests with mid drive motors. All to members or visitors to this forum. Either way, I'd like to thank you for all of your...

    Thats the point of buying from a manufacturer based in the UK, yes you can buy a bike with a Bafang mid drive motor from alibaba for around $1000. On top of that you have: Shipping which is around $300 minimum, hazardous good shipping is a minefield too! 6% import duty And then you have the...

    Battery Lead for a Byocycles Zest

    Hey, Motor is an MXUS 250w, 36v motor Controller is a Lishui 15a controller. Off the top of my head, I can provide a bit more information, but it means going to the vault and getting the technical file for the 2014 Zest! Hope that's reasonably helpful.

    Who wants to test this?

    Annoyingly, this could be made so much better with a simple bluetooth module to get rid of the cables!
