    Battery life

    Agree, I have used both the Samsung 29E cells and currently the Samsung 30Q. IMHO, the Samsung 30Q cells are far superior to the 29E, when used in a high drain situation.

    Battery life

    Sounds like it could be down to what wheeliepete has highlighted in post #3. A solution would be to buy a programming cable, as mentioned in this thread: http://pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/after-market-bbsxx-crank-drive-gear.32691/#post-462858 Then program the controller to limit the amps to a...

    Battery life

    When you say stall, do you mean you feel a pulsing through the pedals/motor, which is the Bafang hitting its LVC (Low Voltage Cut-off)?

    Compatibility of Q11 48V 1kw with 09 bottle kit

    That motor is a direct drive type, so fine for flatitsh terrains, but don't expect great hill climbing ability, assuming the controller is 25A - 30A. The battery cells, although rated at 10A and potentially giving you 40A continuous with a 4P configuration, aren't the best out there. You may...

    Which bafang mid drive kit to buy?

    I had a Ping 48v 15Ah battery, using a 30 amp controller and maxing it most of the time. That battery was still working great after a few years, so don't worry about stressing your 20Ah Ping, they're good batteries.

    Which bafang mid drive kit to buy?

    Probably best to go for the 500w version. If you find it a bit too powerful for your liking, you can always detune it with a programming cable. If you buy the 350w and find it underpowered, then yer stuffed :oops:

    Is there any difference between the B and non B versions of the BBS series?

    Anyone know if the B versions of the Bafang BBS01 and BBS02 kits are any different to the non B? I.e. have spotted BBS01, BBS02, BBS01B and BBS02B kits.

    Shunt mod gains

    Oops :eek: New uprated controller is the way to go. Maybe 20 amp rated with your battery.

    Shunt mod gains

    You won't gain any more top speed, but you will improve hill climbing performance and the ability to maintain speed over undulating terrain. Don't expect miracles with a 13 amp rated controller though. Best to add a small amount of solder, then test. Some controllers don't like it if you go too...

    BBS02 creaking

    Whoopsie :eek: Glad you got it sorted. I'd be a rich man if I had a pound for every simple mistake I've made with electric bikes. It's all good fun though :)

    BBS02 creaking

    I know you say there is zero play in the mounting plate, but shaking the motor by hand to test, is not a reliable way to check it's tight. These motor units love to twist themselves loose, just by the shear amount of torque they produce. The two nuts, especially the inner one, need to be...
