    This is a question for the knowledgeable EBike Bafang BBS01B owners.

    The most important ideas I have learned by tuning my bike to work for me are as follows: Don't raise the MAX current too far. Mine came set to 15 AMPS and I raised it a bit to 18 AMPS , but returned it to 15 AMPS because I think that gives the controller and battery an easier time. Don't...

    This is a question for the knowledgeable EBike Bafang BBS01B owners.

    OK - When I was setting out on this task, Guerney pointed me to this web page which has a configurator for the Bafang BS01 series. Here is the link to the page which will allow you to query and change settings: https://devnotes.kymatica.com/BafangWebConfig/BafangWebCfg.html 1. Load up that...

    Help! Pedal assist problem

    My guess is that the PAS sensor is on back to front. That said, there are experts here and I am not one of them.

    Ask him to measure and record the voltage of each parallel cell group. He will probably need to lift the capton tape so he can get at the nickle strips. Good luck. It is worth a try. They should all be about the same voltage. Any big deviation is indicative of being badly out of balance which...

    Another Bafang programming cable failure!

    I'd have thought the most likely break point would be just to the left of the reinforced part of that plug Guerney. That has been my experience many times with laptop power supplies etc. Careful handling might make them last better.

    Crank

    IF it is out of balance, you can do something about it. I explained what I did in my post above this morning. It is also true that the battery is quite old, so it may just be done in. IF YOU ARE CONFIDENT in your ability to safely open the battery and measure the cell group voltages, it will...

    Test the battery rather than replacing it Ian. I assume you have a multi meter. Mine are the cheapest and most used tools in my collection. I keep one in the car so I have one wherever I am. Last used it on Saturday when one of my sons found his car was shutting down when the air con was on. He...

    Crank

    The battery is certainly not right, but not necessarily terminal. Sometimes the serial connected cell groups get out of balance and charging is curtailed by one or more cell groups reaching 4.2 volts well before the others. I am wondering if the bike has been left in a garage or shed for...

    Another Bafang programming cable failure!

    Mine cost about £9 from ebay. Works great. I must have used it at least ten or twelve times so far. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/404957473047

    Yes - she wasn't hard to look at. Game though. That was quite an exploit, even if she did have Daddy come and rescue her when the legs and battery ran out. Yes you can select between Bafang and Anand motors.

    Read And Weep

    While I have no time for contraptions like this example being raced around by children, or anyone else, I have a lot of sympathy for the highlighted comment. On the other hand, I suppose you could say the same about shoplifting, or scamming income support, so where do we draw the line? This...

    Maybe we have fallen down the rabbit hole of variable criteria for truth like when Kelly Anne Conway said she had, 'alternative facts' when Trump had laughably claimed that no President in history had ever had so many people at his inauguration. The videos of the event showed something...

    People make a lot of money by driving traffic to their conspiracy boll ox. I remember you posted one like this before which claimed that the Challenger astronauts were not dead but were living happily in secret, ordinary lives.

    The problem with Trump isn't that he is senile like Biden. I don't think he is. The problem with Trump is that he and his people tell lies just about every time they open their mouths. Add to that, his narcissistic, unpredictable, vindictive nature, and his willingness to subvert the...

    Cycling. Health. Covid. Diet.

    The idea that ANY PM, be that the laughable fool Boris, or the boring lawyer Starmer, is capable of setting up proper public health precautions is risible and unfair. What failed us was not Downing Street or Parliament, it was the highly paid squads of people whose sole job is running the...

    Just an addition to the last point. I have shot thousands of rifle rounds in my time. If I am going for a very small group at a hundred meters, I really try to completely control breathing and heart beat. I can slow my heart rate just by thinking about it. When all is perfect, you very very...

    Or he just turned by chance and the bullet missed. He moves. There is a period of time between a shooter deciding to fire, moving his finger to execute the shot, the hammer falling onto the base of the cartridge, the explosion developing in the breach of the rifle, and the bullet transiting...
