Happy with the results. Definitely easier than just Hub or Deraileurs for a commuter/tourer. Suspect if starting from scratch I would choose a Sturmey Archer F30.

Confirmation and Fixed. Do not set “Startup Dgree(Signal No.)” to "2" on BBS02 and possibly other controllers. Pedalling backwards will trigger forward motion on the motor.

Found this earlier this evening. “Startup Dgree(Signal No.): 4\4\4\4\2” Karl, have you tried what happens when you pedal backwards? In my motors, setting this value to 2 will make PAS activate when pedalling backwards. That’s why I also keep it at 4 (or maybe 3). I'll check tomorrow if I set...

Found this on an obscure forum. “Startup Dgree(Signal No.): 4\4\4\4\2” Karl, have you tried what happens when you pedal backwards? In my motors, setting this value to 2 will make PAS activate when pedalling backwards. That’s why I also keep it at 4 (or maybe 3). I think I set this to 2 last...

Just changed over from Rohloff gears to SRAM DD3 gears, absolutely no changes to motor, battery or controller settings. All great, but pedalling backward at certain cadences kicks the motor forward when passing the sensor points, not serious, only noticeable at lights and junctions and on the...

First few miles were perfect, just as I thought it would work out. Actually the 3 IGH can be changed at reasonable pace also, but I refrained. I however was useless, moving from single 14 speed twist shift to 2 x triggers needs a little time. Interesting that although no motor settings were...

I have 3 Alfine bikes, so bought a 1 litre tin (even more expensive) and it will probably be part of my estate. But isn't that what pedelecs is for; splitting up litre tins into single changes and selling to members at cost?

Sturmey have one too ( http://www.sturmey-archer.com/en/products/detail/cs-rk3-black ). Knowing Sturmey, it maybe more sturdy and has the advantage of using normal triple front cable pull distances, hence any compatible shifter, unlike SRAM DD3 which took me a while to figure out as I didn't buy...

Just finishing my DualDrive3 Install today hopefully (from Rohloff). I'm using a 9 speed X5 rear with 11-28 cassette. Not necessarily permanent, depends on how it goes. I hope it's the best of both worlds - derailleur on the hill, IGH at the lights/junctions. Geared to ride in top(IGH) most of...

It should have been obvious to me that although these look the same, the cams inside have different pull ratios. The X5's are 11 and 8mm respectively as this is how far apart the front rings are (odd I thought they were the same). The DD3's are <5mm on both pulls (IGH). Anyway lucky the set was...

Moving on, I am trying to investigate the Lishui bluetooth device which is an inline option to have all your controls and display via an app on your phone/tablet. So if I buy an android 7 inch tablet, get Lishui and Ordnance Survey to upgrade their apps to support split/dual screen...

Don't really understand the size argument. The c961 is 107x58mm and the colour display is 90x60. OK the c961 is landscape but as such takes up more handlebar space.

Mine was $65 from luna cycles, but add $12 for postage and the risk of duty, vat and PO admin fees (I was lucky), £70 from http://www.brightonebikes.co.uk/store/p29/850C_Advanced_colour_display_with_USB..html is probably better.

Common sense would suggest the wear is a combination of torque, friction and quality. Hub gears should wear much less without the friction of derailleurs and a touring setup and style will help, I can vouch for this. However as someone else stated the torque of the 500w mid drive will stretch...

Sheldon Brown - "The DualDrive hubs and Spectro T3 are supposed to be used only with their proprietary shifters, but they have a pullrod, not a pushrod, suggesting that a conversion to use a pullchain might be possible." However this is the dualdrive not the newer dualdrive3 (which I have) and...

Having purchased a brand new wheelset with a SRAM dualdrive 3 cheap for a Bafang BBS02, I was aware it came with no small parts, shifters, cassettes etc. I have got most of what I need, but was considering a standard 3 sprocket front derailleur trigger as a pose to the dualdrive 3 speed shifter...

They are not listed on your website and not sure they work on BBS02 ?

I've recently got the colour controller DPC-14 and thought this woud be on it's way shortly whether it be bluetooth or USB(tricky). I am keen to try this out, well worth the smallish cost, however a couple of points. I am signed up to OS for maps and routes, so will need to switch between apps...

Excellent point, forgot about lights and junctions. Will re-equate for high.
