    Bbs01 power cutting in out at startup

    Hmmm,i bought mail order from eclipse bikes,dont know what their reps like on reasonableness. Surely if its a programming issue it would have been there from the start ,rather than manafesting after a months use.

    BBS 1 Cutting out, any ideas?

    Tried that a while back with a little sucess at first.But then got worse.Fordulike has solved it.Disconnect the throttle cable cures it .Now im waiting for him to suggest a full fix.Maybe a new cable under the warrenty.

    You are completely right fordulike,thanks.Disconnecting the throttle cable cures the problem. How for a complete fix tho as i love having a throttle.Im not dismanteling the whole kit to send back under warrenty,that wld be crazy. It was ok for the 1st month of use .Cld it just be the cable...

    The throttle works flawlessly.The issue is when pushing off with PAS.It now does it whenever i stop for a while and the motor fully cools down.Doesnt matter anymore if i lower PAS and gears to start,seems worse.But alll fine and dandy every time after a few seconds of on off on off.Could getting...

    hi,it only occured with PAS.If throttling off from stationary with a cold motor its absolutely fine.Even if i was to pull away in top gear.What will disconnecting the throttle show?

    Bbs01 power cutting in out at startup

    Glad its not just a fault with mine then.But perhaps a quirk of the design.I found same as you.If i put the PAS down with lowish gear ,its ok. Also wondered if its a cadence thing as like you i found as soon as u get the pedel turning faster it stops playing up.Did u find it only happens from...

    I love cycling trevormonty.I still find u have to put in plenty of effort especially on steeper hills with these bbs motors. Just with my slightly arthritic 50 year old knees its made cycling a pleasure again.

    Thats 30 miles derestricted.If u going to use a 500watt 48v unrestricted at 20mph.I doubt u get much more than 18miles on high Pas from a 17.4ah batt

    New Member, New to E-bikes, on the edge of buying.

    Id def go for as big a batt as poss.I deregulated the speed restriction on my bbs01 350w . At 14 stone on my 22kg mountain bike,I can just about squeeze 30 miles max with some hills out of a 17.4 ah batt .Pas 4 mostly , Pas 5 for hills (pas 1 -5). Soon as u spending some time at speeds of 17 -...

    Bbs01 power cutting in out at startup

    Hi tommie No , flat or hill no difference. just was happening for perhaps half a minute max when the motors cold, just at initial start of a days cycling.But now just occasionally if ive stopped for a while AND an inclines involved,not if on flat. The batterys new from eclipse bikes.Im sure its...

    Bbs01 power cutting in out at startup

    Thanks d8veh i might check that if i get fed up enough.I cant help think its something to do with a cold motor coupled with a high demand for power tho. Today i started off with a really low gear 24t and it was fine.Later after a long lunch stop on a steep incline it started cutting on and off...

    Bbs01 power cutting in out at startup

    I fitted a brand new 350w kit and samsung cell battery a few months ago.Generally its flawless .but after a few weeks of use ,it developed a small niggling issue,during the first half minutes use at the start of a ride. I have a 42t chainring and a sunrace megagear. I push off halfway down the...

    bafang bbs01b 250/350w are identical but different price

    Cheers, thats cheered me up,as i had no intention of fiddling with manufacturers settings anyway.just had read thats what people do. Id leave that to more serious types that know what they are doing and want every last drip of performance.

    bafang bbs01b 250/350w are identical but different price

    Its only a trivial thing i know,im being petty but i think its pretty cheeky. Ive noticed all uk sellers of these motors charge around £10 more for the 350w compared to the 250w. but after a little research discovered they are absolutely identical in every way.Same motor,with same controller...

    non sensical uk e bike law

    interesting ,d8veh.i thought if a 250w motor drew too many amps from say a 36volt. ie; very hilly areas. so it was exceeding the 'continuous' rating for considerable time it would eventually be burnt out. why are motors of higher wattage made if they add nothing tho. surely they do something...

    Im a common sense man and theres nothing that peaks me more, than idiotic regulations on our lives. Im not arguing against the 15.5mph law on E bikes.As stupid as that seems ,considering an unassisted cyclist can reach 25mph.I get that its about differentiating bikes from mo-peds. I WANT to...
