December 22, 20205 yr hi guys another newbie thread here. Im wanting to convert my Scott Scale Hard tail using a Bafang BBS01 kit from Woosh but i was wondering what additional kit i need to complete the build. The bike is this one: Scott Scale Things that im concerned about are: Bottom Bracket - is a Shimano- BB-MT500-PA shell 41x89.5mm press fit - would i need an adapter? which one? It has a 10 speed cassette "Shimano CS-HG50-10 / 11-36 T" - would this be ok to use? Do I also need to get a new chain ring? would the bafang one supplied be ok or should i go for one of the Lekkie ones? I have hydraulic brakes but do i actually need any brake sensors? I appreciate your time reading this. Mo

Can be really helpful if you are doing tricky manoeuvre such as zigzag through a barrier; you don't want the motor suddenly to kick in. Very easy to put sensors onto existing levers.
December 22, 20205 yr I recently bought a BBS02 and these are the things I wish I had bought with the kit. 1. Gear sensor https://www.brightonebikes.co.uk/store/p81/Gear_sensor_from_Gearsensor.com.html 2. You will also need a tool to tighten the locknuts. https://www.brightonebikes.co.uk/store/p96/Bafang_BBS01%28B%29%2F02%28B%29%2FHD_spanner.html Some people use sockets to tighten the locknuts https://fasterbikes.eu/de/zubehoer/werkzeuge/. 3. Lekkie ring, I support it's a personal choice, the standard ring is heavy but does the job. 4. Throttle, AliExpress is a cheap place to buy compatible twist throttles but you wait a while for them to arrive.
December 22, 20205 yr 5. Zip ties, reusable ones are good 6. Here's the link to the pedelecs BBS02 after market thread https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/after-market-bbsxx-crank-drive-gear.32691/page-4 7. Crank puller, Allen keys, the crank arm uses a 8mn Allen key, I use the below, some people use a long Allen key https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Wera-05003824001-8740-C-HF-Zyklop-In-Hex-Screw-Hold-Socket-1-2in-Drive-SW-8-x-6/233241564541?epid=727769830&hash=item364e47d57d:g:cLMAAOSw3ChfK3sJ

The thicknedss mustn't exceed 6mm anywhere around the bottom/ front - about half way round.
December 23, 20205 yr Author Hi Guys, thanks for your replies and very useful advice so far. I think i may have hit a roadblock with the BBS01. My BB is 89.5mm wide which if understand correctly is not compatible with the BBS01 or 02. The next option would be a hub drive. I'd prefer rear but how would that work with my 10 speed cassette? Thanks Mo
December 23, 20205 yr The next option would be a hub drive. I'd prefer rear but how would that work with my 10 speed cassette? It'll be OK with a cassette motor.
