Bafang BBS01 motor kits

[Amy Alberts]

Hello to everyone!

I am kind of a newbie, could you please help me? Do I need any license to have an e-bike with Bafang BBS01 250W motor?

Would you personally prefer this motor kit?

Thank you in advance!

No licence needed.

It does have some advantage over a lot of kits in the respect that you can delve in to the software and carry out some programming to get more performance with a programming cable. The upside is that punctures and wheel maintenance is simpler the downside is you loose all the front chain rings, Mine is used for off road riding and gets me up any hill I ask it too but don't expect to be climbing all hills at 15mph unless you are a Trotty or one of her mates.

Thank you a lot!

Then, I guess, I'll buy BBS01, especially taking into account that it looks like most people on this forum choose it or BBS02.

Not only do you not need a licence..... but you can ride it anywhere ordinary push bikes are allowed to go. Cycle paths, tracks, canal paths etc etc.

Just noticed you're in Germany...... I assumed you were here in the UK.
Dont know about the legalities of where Ebikes can go in your country.

Unless you have a BBS02 ahem ahem

Seriously though, the BBS01 is the best bet for you Amy.
