One more thing: my bike has brake / gear cables that run through guides attached to the bottom of the bottom bracket, will they get in the way of a Bafang installation?

Thanks for all the info. Not particularly concerned about legality, although 250W is probably more than enough for my needs (cycling around Lisbon, which has a lot of hills). About the crank freewheeling: if I understand it correctly, the crank arms are not fixed to the chainring as they are in a normal bike? So the motor can be powering the bike without the pedals going around?

Hi, I have a Radon TCS 7 city/touring bike which I'm looking to convert with a mid drive kit, probably a Bafang 8Fun kit as that one seems the most available. Some questions: - What's the difference between the BBS01, BBS02 and BBSHD versions? Which is the most recent? Which is the best choice for an "average" person? - My bike currently has a triple chainring at the front, I'm guessing I will have to ditch that for the single chainring that comes with the Bafang kit? - Can I use the electrical power without pedalling (with a throttle), do the pedals have to move when the motor is powering the bike? I'm having a hard time getting my head around how it would work otherwise without some complex freewheel arrangement. - My lights are currently powered by a front hub dynamo and I don't intende to change that, but out of curiosity, is it possible to get a 6V feed off the battery to power dynamo lights? Thanks!
