Andy, Thanks I thought so from the photograph. Guess I will wait till the bike arrives and see what is possible. The kickstand looks so useful I would really like to keep it. Tim

It is part of the kit. The torque produced will turn the motor in the frame if not fixed properly. Bafang seem to manage to have a system that allows a tight fit on the frame and will not rotate. The tsdz2 system does not seem to be as good and will loosen if the bracket is not employed, at...

Hi, I am looking at doing this and am interested in how you managed to fit the anti rotation bracket with the kickstand in place. I have a tsdz2 on another bike and know from bitter experience the problems that arise from not using the bracket. Any hints welcome Thanks Tim

Hi, One easy thing to check is the speed sensor. Mine was intermittent for a while due to poor positioning. As such it sometimes fed back 66mph, when this happens the motor will stop all assistance Tim

Hi, I fitted the 36V version to my bike and am very pleased with it. I had to replace the gear cable and route it directly which has not been a problem. The other problem I found is that I could not fit the bolt through the anti-rotation bracket due to the lack of space in the bottom bracket...

Hi , I had a kit with one of these sensors and replaced it with a 12 magnet one, so I don't think it is the number of magnets that is the problem. The sensor I used was much bigger hence bigger spacing between the magnets. What I think might be happening is that the controller uses the...

Well it's taken a while but the new controller finally arrived and has cured the problem. I had to invoke the Ebay returns process to get any action and even than nothing much happened until there was a change of personnel at the other end. After that things started happening quickly. I am quite...

Hopefully I am on the way to a solution. The supplier is sending me a new controller. Will take a while I expect but may well sort the problem out

Well I did say it was correct but just to be clear it is plugged in with the arrows lined up and all the way to the line, there is no sign of broken or bent pins. As you say it is a kit so everything should match, I have not changed anything. If it is a connection problem then it must be a...

Hi, Yes I pulled it out and re-plugged it in, it is correct. The fault is not really a "stutter" I get one twitch out of the motor and then nothing. It is like the battery collapses after the motor takes some current and the system resets, although the display does not reset. The battery is OK...

Thanks for that. I have checked all the connections and no change. It is not quite plug and play because I wired in a different PAS sensor. However I have wired up the original and checked the signals with a DVM and it seems to switch between 0 and 5v with rotation of the sensor. Also the motor...

Hi, Just assembled one of these kits and it will not drive the motor even in walk mode. LCD operates correctly, the motor jerks and then stops. If repeated the display shows error 6 short circuit motor controller. I did change and re-wire the pas sensor and so could have got the wiring wrong...

Hi, I hadn't actually thought of doing that but it does seem to be the best solution Thanks - Tim

Hi, I am going to buy a front wheel conversion kit for my Dahon Expresso from Elifebike. Looking at the PAS sensor it fits into the locking collar of a sealed bottom bracket. My bike has an older style bottom bracket with a metal circular lock nut so will not directly fit. Is it possible to...

Hi, I have seen these Voilamart kits advertised on ebay. At £100 or so they seem too cheap to be true. Has anyone had any experience of them...

Thanks for all the helpful replies. I already have a TDZS2 which I am happy with so which I am going to swop this over to the subway. I am only really doing this to get hydraulic disk brakes. I will have to re-route the gear cable but luckily the brake pipe is routed along the crossbar so can...

Hi, I am thinking of buying a Subway 2 and adding the tsdz2 to it. I was talking it over with the mechanic in Halfords and he wondered if it was safe due to the quick release rear wheel. None of the other ebikes in the shop had this type of wheel, Is there any reason why this is a problem or is...

No idea about the mounting position but you can manage without the additional bracket. As mentioned earlier I found that the motor loosened with time and had to modify the spacer to give better grip. Gear changing seems ok motor turns off quickly enough possibly have to be careful in the...

I was surprised that it will take a normal chain ring as PSW Power sell an adapter, but I checked the spacing and they are OK for a 110 BCD chain ring so thanks for the tip.

I am very pleased with my 250W version. I have only done 90 miles so far. I get 40 miles or so using the middle assist levels and 20-25 if I hammer it in the upper assist ranges, from a 10 Ah battery. I have upped the max speed a bit to 19 as I found it stopping at 15-16 was annoying. The only...
