    bbs01b 36v/48v

    Hello, With both these controllers costing $85: 36v 350w 48v 350w Is there any difference in the components of the controller, or is it a bit like the 250w/350w 15A/18A programming change? I would have expected some price difference. I am curious as have some spare (identical) cells I could...

    BBS01b Refresh Advice

    Hello, my (unmodified) BBS01b has done near on 1000 miles, including through recent winter snow and on salty-slushy roads. It's certainly noisier than when I got it, but not in a concerning way (a whurr, no clonking, clicking, grinding or banging). I know it is internally (by UK ebike shop)...
