Advice on buying an E-Bike

[saneagle]

One question that I had: the assist mode has 3 levels and a throttle. Even at the lowest level it is a lot more powerful than other e-bikes. Is there a way to reduce the power in assist mode?

The only way you can fix that is to change the controller to a KT one, which costs about £80. Your bike has the controller integrated into the battery case, so you'd have to mount the KT controller in its own case or in a bag.

Basic pas control is simply speed limited so you get full power until the speed cap for each pas level is reached..

It can be counter intuitive to start with - messed me up a bit at least.. but it only takes a few outings to get used to it and a simple crack of either brake lever is just enough to invoke the brake cut off of the motor should you need to temper the power to navigate situations.

I notice tbk has KT controllers for Hailong battery mounts - would that be a possibility ?

Thanks for the heads up Peter. Following thelarkbox comment, I think I will give it a few more trials to see if I get used to the quick release of power. It is noticeably more potent than other e-bikes that I've tried! What is tbk?

It depends which mount. There are three different ones. Also the OEM integrated controllers are potted. The TBK one would be vulnerable if not potted. I think a separate aluminium box type is always a better solution. It gives you a lot more options for size and power.
