    Bafang Gear Query

    Ok cool. I'm wondering also how does back gear changing work is it automatic or manual. Also can you remove the front gear lever from the handlebars as its no longer needed anymore.

    Like you said at the end Kudos I'm looking to provide bikes to the local city that are of good quality already I'm already looking into buying a nice year old Giant and a nice six month old Cube mountain bike.

    Looking to Either Build My Own or Purchase an Ebike

    I'd say that's a good point. I think a hard tail bike like the Cube would be best option for me.

    Looking to Either Build My Own or Purchase an Ebike

    I'm curious, what differences are there between the Cube and Giant bikes that make you choose the Cube, both look swell to me. Battery pack will blend in nicely on either of them.

    Looking to Start Building and Selling Ebikes in My Area

    I live in an area that I think has a good market for ebike sales, there are huge numbers of commuters near the city that can benefit from ebikes. There is only one other supplier in the area and that is a bicycle shop that sells ebikes at a huge markup. I am thinking of shipping in kits (likely...

    Bafang Gear Query

    Does using the Bafang BBS02 system mean that you cannot use the front gears (i.e. the gears where the pedals are) of the bike. I seen a video on Youtube of a guy installing a BBS02 and he said his 21 gear bike was now a 7 gear bike because of the change as he couldn't use his three front gears.

    I'm looking to get a used bike, such as this or this. I can probably get something of that quality for £200ish based on my research thus far.

    Looking to Either Build My Own or Purchase an Ebike

    I've been told the "New 8fun Bafang Mid Drive 48V 750W Electric Bike Motor Conversion Kit BBS02" might be a good piece of kit to buy firstly. I might go with that. Is there anything that is as good as it. It looks well and doesn't take too much from the bike's style. It seems shipping from China...

    Looking to Either Build My Own or Purchase an Ebike

    That's much too costly. About £900 way above my budget. Pre-builds on Alibaba (Link) look much more affordable but I'm little skeptical about shipping in from China. I was reading a guide and there's all sorts of import laws that I'll need to comply with.

    Looking to Either Build My Own or Purchase an Ebike

    What should I look for in a mountain bike? Where do I get the Unrestricted CST kit & 15ah battery online? Who needs a wife when you have hydraulic brakes?

    Looking to Either Build My Own or Purchase an Ebike

    Don't really care about legality, but at same time want to keep myself safe so wont be going excessively fast. Range will probably need to be at least 20 miles. What kind of ebike could I get for £1000? I want something pretty cool but practicality will trump flashiness for me. I think I'll...

    Looking to Either Build My Own or Purchase an Ebike

    I have some skill with DIY and I think it'd be cheaper to construct my own ebike. However, I am wondering if there are some models out there that would be better investments. I have two existing bikes. One is a mountain bike and the other a BMX. I have attached images of each bike from side...
