Just tried now and two problems. Initially says 'This page can't load Google Maps correctly.' then when I entered locations and hit GO it hung on a blank screen. Same on Chrome and Edge.
Fixed that one.Works OK with good input. The error comes when one of the locations is not recognized.
very sorry!
The Princess has a fully enclosed chain cover, the BBS01B comes with a minimalist chain cover.
I was looking for an additional chain cover to get close to the original chain cover but did not see anything suitable.
I have now replied.
I'd be grateful for suggestions.
Here is the Pashley Princess.
Resurrecting and old thread because i can finally get round to sorting my bike (baby is big enough to take on the bike now)
@Woosh I emailed you last week to check if the BBS01 was still my best bet with a 13ah battery, did you get it?
I did! I took it out for the first time last weekend (sans chain case, too lazy, but the chainring does fit in it but would need butchering)
It GOES! Even up hill. On the highest assist level I was like :O
I need to work on changing gear (they need tweaking too) though because if I stop pedaling and the motor stops helping my speed dramatically reduces which isn’t great when something/someone is behind me but changing while peddling didn’t feel healthy. I got up the 12% hill in like the 4/5th gear though, was effort but still got up
I need to have the brakes looked at because they are a bit crap and it’s a heavy bike down a steep hill.
It weighs an absolute tonne though but I don’t weigh much so I figure that makes up for it.
@Woosh both baby seats fit fine, though the front ones handlebars Are v close to the display and the rear gets in the way of the battery lock.
Well done.
What are you converting?Are you sure the geared rear hub is strong enough for a mid drive? Would front drive be an option, then you can keep the geared rear hub and have no extra load on it.
Good to see another wanting a "vintage" electric. I've just scored a very old child seat for my vintage conversion.
1973/4 Raleigh Sport. New wheels, with rear hub motor fitted, all the electriclery is in the saddle bag. To complete I am waiting on wiring.What are you converting?
Neat job. Are those the original tyres?1973/4 Raleigh Sport. New wheels, with rear hub motor fitted, all the electriclery is in the saddle bag. To complete I am waiting on wiring.
