Help! 'Starter button' wanted for Bafang mid-drive (and Mahle hub)

[saneagle]

By "standard KT controllers" do you mean the controller that is neatly integrated already with the Bafang mid-drive?

No. He's talking about a hub-motor setup.

 

[flash]

I actually use a dropper seat post for a similar reason. Where I ride is off road in the Alps. Often I will have to stop on a steep uphill section to get past a gate etc. If I tried to start with seat at normal height even at fairly low power I would get wheel spin. With the dropper post fitted I can just drop the seat as I stop then pull away in a seated position. As soon as I am moving I take my weight off the seat and press the lever to return the seat to it's original height.

Me too
