Thanks, very informative. Seems like I would be better to source individual components to tailor the end result.

Thanks, a good endorsement. I have been to Woosh a couple of times to look at various models, unfortunately all to small despite Tony's best efforts to adjust. Ended up down the self build route

Thanks Nealh Current set up is 17.5ah 36vBBS01B gives me 40 mile range average with fairly high assistance levels, would like to at least match this. Would like to stay at 250w if possible, sorry my reference to 1000w was a clumsy attempt at humour. 350w seems popular amongst forum members, is this an optimum for torque/battery life? I will contact woosh to see if there are larger 48v H/L batteries in the pipe line.

Hi All Looking at DWG22C 48v 250w 60nm from Woosh, they only supply with 12ah battery, prefer 15ah. Any alternative recommendations would be very welcome. Currently enjoying my BBS01 but time for another build. I know a hub motor won't climb like a mid motor but looking for a more relaxed ride, however more torque the better (18st + knackered knees). Would be nice to keep things legal if possible. MInd you living in a town centre iam constantly being overtaken and cut up by e scooters and Deliveroo boys with 1000w hubs, sorry that should be another thread.

Thanks Nick, the pictures are really helpfull

Are they the E6000, how is the offset compared to original? Thanks Steve

Yes I agree, problem is finding the correct offset for the L/H crank. I know £100 for a pair of Lekkie crank arms sounds ridiculous but should fix the pedal alignement.

Thanks for the reply, look top quality

Hi All Looking at the Lekkie Buzz Bar, are there alternative products worth considering? Thanks

Many thanks for the replies, very helpful. All sorted

Thanks thats great

H All Could do with some advise/sugestions regarding BBS01b programming the following, current settings in brackets basic max current (15A) low batt cutoff (31v) throttle throttle mode speed or current (Speed) Start voltage (11) End voltage (25) Start current (10) Pedal assist Start current (10) Slow start mode (4) Keep current (60%) Stop delay (10) Current decay (8) Stop Decay (10) Thought i had coppied origonal settings to a folder but messed it up!!! Thanks Steve

Thanks for the advice guy's. Ready built double wall wheels with a QR freewheel hub seem to be thin on the ground at present. Would like to stick with freewheel as the current 14 -34 megarange 7 speed works well with the stock 44t Bafang chainring, otherwise would have considered a cassette hub. To be honest I just fancied building a wheel, haven't built one since the early 70's. Totally agree BBP are brilliant if they have what you need. Recently converted one of my bikes to front disc, top quality wheel and forks from BBP for a bargain £60

Hi Nealh Do you have a preferred vendor for rims, spokes & standard hubs. Prices seem to be all over the place on line. Looking for standard 700 X 19 rim & QR freewheel hub, nothing fancy. Thanks Steve

I use this 118 link KMC chain from bankrupt bike parts, works well on my 8 speed and cheap as chips https://www.bankruptbikeparts.co.uk/6-7-speed-kmc-z50-118-link-3-32-cycle-chain-for-mega-range-derailleur-26-700c-350-000118-0001-00

Thanks for the info, just ordere Thanks form the recommendation, have just ordered one

Tried Clean Ride last year and found it performed as advertised, very quiet and smooth drive train. Particularly like the way the wax would flake of leaving the chain surprisingly clean. Only downside was I found it awkward to apply and hard to clean up any spillage. Best applied over rear cogs while back pedaling (as manufacturers video) impossible with BBS01. Went back to Finish line dry but may give it another go.

New lead arrived and everything connected as expected, thanks to all for the advice.

Thanks Its bit of a lottery I guess with this sort of thing, pcb looked poor quality with dry looking joints visible through clear plastic sheath. Have re ordered as per your link. Thanks

Thanks I ordered exactly the same lead, have used the vendor before, fingers crossed will update when it arrives. Thanks

Thanks It does look poor quality, just thought I might be missing something. Will by another. Cheers Steve

Thanks I will send it back and repurchase, just want to try upping the keep current a little.

Hi All I am having trouble programming my BBS01. new lead arrived from ebay today but will not connct to software (Error opening serial port) no option to choose port and the controler info is not showing on the software I have checked the connections and that the battery is turned on, restarted laptop and software. I guess it could be a faulty lead but probably an error on my part. Any ideas would be great. Many thanks Steve

Thanks
