I have seen a few links here recommending lith/moly grease for such purposes. Below is the list of recommended grease/lubricant etc. used in the Bafang motors at factory: Bafang has advised the following greases are applied during assembly to Bafang units:- Bearing grease - Unical Lithium...

Yes, I have seen this. Any local reports on nylon gear failure degeneration as a consequence of seepage through the bearing? And millage if possible please? My original bbs had lith/moly cv grease refreshed regularly and is still going strong at nearly 5000 miles. Mobilgrease 28 is apparently...

Hi, Question about Bafang BBS mid-drives. Does anybody add a little extra lith/moly grease to the secondary drive cogs (accessible by removing the chainring, the 5 or 8 crosshead screws and removing the cover)? Cheers Darren

Yes, lovely. Thanks flecc.

Yes, thank you for your replies on this, much appreciated. I shall get on to Bafang after the New year jollies and see what (if any) plans they have to develop their products so as to ensure EAPC conformity in the UK/European Union come 2018. Unless that is also already posted here somewhere :)

Yes, I have and I like it. Thanks trex

I think I arrived at the correct conclusion, that's as I understood it, thanks. Seems odd to consider the elderly and disabled for only a couple of years then just forget about their previously identified needs? Just seems daft, it's about making cycling more accessible to more people and...

Hi,I believe you may fit the throttle but it must cease assistance at same speed as the pedal assist 25kph :) Department for Transport guidelines Nov. 2015 referring to the Jan 2016 amendments. The section on use of throttle reads as follows: "Power assistance - "Twist and Go" Because of the...

Department for Transport guidelines Nov. 2015 referring to the Jan 2016 amendments. The section on use of throttle reads as follows: "Power assistance - "Twist and Go" Because of the particular benefits for elderly and disabled users, pedal cycles providing electrical assistance without use of...

I believed these guidelines from the Department of Transport Nov. 2015 and referring to Jan 2016 changes were the revised version for UK? It reads "Power assistance - "Twist and Go" Because of the particular benefits for elderly and disabled users, pedal cycles providing electrical assistance...

Thanks. The bike get's a fair bit of love and attention, but then it does get a lot of use and occasional abuse.

Hope so, could make for fun riding :)

Sounds like bitter experience talking. I'm hardtail majority of the time anyway :)

I get out that way sometimes, everywhere is closer since discovering off-road ebike. I'll keep an eye out for SRS :) Call me lazy or missing out but I tend to stick to single pivot set ups for pure ease of service. Santa Cruz Superlight/Heckler/Blur all lend themselves well I find and I really...

Hi, Thanks for the message. I know a fair amount of that area, it's generally where I play. Has been pretty heavy going up there lately. Be great to meet up for a ride along a section sometime. Happy riding :)

Thanks. Feel free to give me a shout if your looking for ideas where to ride during any spare time you get whilst here :)

Hi, Long story short... My family ran a cycle shop as I was growing up, so was lucky to always have bikes around to play with. Worked in a number of bike shops since they packed up some years back. (the shop that is, they're still with us I'm pleased to say!) Always dreamed of electric bikes as...

Yep. It's still muddy out there but lots of fun.
