I found your video 20months after original posting.. I'm very well acquainted with your British military jargon; military efficiency experts have universal (catholic) appeal. Truism applies to all men. I agree, the middle bracket arrangement makes for a more rigid and stronger location to mount the electric motor(s) hardware and hard points. I've not kept pace with current developments; ie. components, metallurgy, gearing, gears, chains, sprockets, drives.. I used to have well developed legs to power my bicycle everywhere here in Ft. Walton Beach, FL... I agree with you Sir... There ought to be more companies besides Bosch, BaFang, Shimano or Wal-Mart competing for the long term welfare of the people and this planet. ALOHA

At 7:30 you state the motors will appear less loud while off-road, due to the difference in the road/trail surface. I agree with this. Additionally, riding off road, over rocks, bumps, and tree roots is quite loud itself, which will also help mask any additional noise.

This was extremely informative and helpful. Thanks for taking the time to provide this video. I am leaning towards the the BAC 2000 controller option, with the motor mounted the traditional manner, in front of the downtube. My thinking is that with the frame geometry on my bike, the long mounting brackets of the golden chain version should keep the motor elevated enough to not get battered by rocks on trails. Hopefully the BAC 2000 controller could also be be fit between the mounting brackets the way the stock controller is.

The biggest bit of advice I would have welcomed when first buying the BBSHD or any bolt on would of been, make sure the bike your putting it on is a strong bike. If you are going full suspension make sure the flex in the pivot points will withstand the forces applied from the motor in both radial and lateral axis. The torque these motors put out is far beyond any pedal power I can put out and I wear spandex on a weekend. I like a good pedal so I think the cyc is for me 3 clutches in the bbshd in 2000 miles. Is there a chance you could do a pedal resistance test on both motors?

Hi again Great video very clearly and well explained . The main thing I have noticed with the bbshd and the noise level as it depends on what frame you have it mounted to as the vibrations are transmitted via the frame. My old bike was a Carrera hard tail and the bbshd was noticeably louder than my current bike with is a giant trance full suspension you can see the frame material is thicker especially round the bottom bracket area. How would you say the torque levels of the cyc compare to the bbshd would you say they are similar? Also do you no if there is an option to change the display on the cyc I'm guessing there is if the controller is changed. Keep up the good work. Cheers Daniel

You make an excellent point with the sound. I had not considered the frame as being a factor but it makes alot of sense. In terms of torque the CYC I believe is 180nm and the bbshd 160nm max on both. Only the one display from CYC but there will be more options with the ASI controllers. Both direct from them or via ERT. Cheers

4 жыл бұрын
B. Bergy Thanks! I did not consider the geared version. I just had a bad feeling about it. I don't think many people got it and I doubt it will continue to be made. I terms of maintaining I think the bbshd has a clear edge as the parts are widely available along with specialist tools and lots of videos. That said the x1 is built well. I doubt I will need to service much. Regressing looks to be a relatively easy task as the gear box is pretty easy to remove. They come extremely well lubricated already. You would have to take of the motor to do this which is marginally more of a job than the bbshd. I think you might be able to do the main gear on the bbshd while it's still bolted on but I'd have to check. I haven't had issues with either motor. I have do my bbshd in the spring so I will let you know how that goes for sure. Hope this rather rambling answer helps. Cheers.

I'm only running 52 volts on the X1. 100kph is possible at 72. Whether I try it that fast we will see! At 52 volts the rpm tops out at about 7500 under load. At 72 with a bac2000 it jumps up to 12000. So yeah if I hit 69kph at 7500 in theory 12000 on the same hill will put me over the 100... But the limit is 60 there so I will find a different location to test in spring.

If you later wanted to get the CYC then you could also use the bac800 with it just by changing out a few bits of wiring and some parameter settings. The closet place to you is in the UK and with the pound doing badly against the Euro it's not bad price wise. I am going to do some videos installing the bac800 on my CYC over the next few months.

I just simply cut the cable to desired length and soilder them back together I did stagger the joints slightly then heat shrink each joint with some small heat shrink the individual cables are 28 AWG then 2 larger bit of heat shrink over the whole lot. Spare looms can be found for not very much so give it a try. Cheers

Does the CYC X1 have more power than the BBSHD at 72v? can either of them run at 84v peak voltage? I want to switch from my hub motor for hill climbing reasons. But my bike is a single speed no gears. So I don't know how this would work? I guess it's not so much the hills I'm just interested in trying a mid-drive because I just like challenging things. I wonder how these compare to the Luna Cycle Cyclone 3000w Mid- Drive as the whole set up is pretty cheap, But I'd rather have a better unit then save money. Out of the CYC X1 and BBSHD if you could only keep one which one would it be? Wait im confused is the Luna Cycle Cyclone the CYC X1 or is it a different unit? Sorry, I'm new to these mid-drive beasts. lol

Gen2 seems like a nice kit but I still cant get my head around bb mounting. There are 3 issues that I see: 1) according to diagram for BSA 83mm on their website the mounting bracket is 83mm wide (obviously) but intended frames are either 68 or 73mm wide, mine seems to be 71, how do you make up for that 1cm? 2) chain ring side N on diagram is 99.6mm wide from the center of the frame, while the other side P is 91mm, that is almost 1cm difference in pedal distance from the center of the frame. I dont know if that matters or not I havent purchased or tried this kit. 3) N+P=19.6cm, seems a bit wide when I put that measurement on my bike(hybrid, not even a narrow road bike) which is 140mm at its widest point. That is 3cm of difference per side (only?) which honestly may not be that bad, but issue no 1 above is what worries me, it doesnt seem like it will be mounted snug to the frame around bb? Or am I looking at this completely wrong...

The kit has spacers for the most common sizes. But you can get bb spacers of various sizes at pretty much any bike shop. So although 71mm is unusual it's not a show stopper in terms of using the kit. My bike uses all the spacers with a 68mm bb. The best advice to to contact Jon at CYC. He is really helpful and if you tell him the frame you have along with your concerns he can give you specific advice. Good luck with your build!

That what a lot of people do. You can still run into issues. It's worth researching the attitudes of local police etc to ebikes. The fact you can unlock it by pushing a button might not wash in a few places. I'm hopeful attitudes will change. In general if a rider is safe and respects the road conditions people ought not to bother you.

If I have a 8ah battery how many miles will I get per ride with this?
@HighVoltageKits

Maybe 10-15 running it on max. It depends very much on how hilly it is where you are and weight of bike and rider..Wind and rolling resistance. If you are talking trails etc when full power is a rare thing... Probably at the top end. Road riding full blast up hills the lower. 8 amp hours is not huge. It would be light tho and easier to mount... Its always a balancing act..Hope this helps. Cheers

It was 3kw I think. I have had it up to about 4kw with the ASI BAC800.

Thanks Nick, I have been using your video. It was very helpful. The breakthrough for me was when i understood how the power factor works with the pedal cadence. I'm just setting it to zero. I just want to be able to spin the paddles and get the desired level of power with no variation due to cadence. Might sound a bit odd to kill the feature but it works for me! Cheers

Are you using any ebike specific parts such as a chain or cassette?
@HighVoltageKits

Right now it's just the stock stuff that came with the frame. I will see how it copes at 5kw soon! The rear cassette is steel so should be ok.Im not sure about the freewheel hub tho. I may need to change that. In general steel is best for ebikes.

Nice. I have a BBSHD. I Love it. Due to chain failure anxiety, I'm running an ebike specific chain. Lol! Keep the content coming! Good job!

Thanks I'll try. Is it the KMC E? I only busted chains when I stood up to try and get the bike moving faster than it would with the motor in a high gear... only did that twice. I have KMC 6-8 speed chain on now. But I am fixed to a single gear and leaving the motor to do all the work. That's on my bbshd. The cyc does not spin fast enough with stock 52 volts and no field weakening to do this. Cheers

Is this stabil enough for hard mountainbiking
@HighVoltageKits
4 жыл бұрын
I would not take my bike hard riding down a mountain. If the bike is capable of hard riding I dont see why you cant add the motor and ride it hard. You need to allow for the extra weight when specifying your suspension and brakes etc.

The front chain ring is an option provided by CYC. I think you can buy them online. The one I have came with the motor kit. Let me know if this is not what you meant.

Jeez, both of those are VERY noisy. In comparison, my Bafang CST 500W 36V hub motor is virtually silent with a 14S6P pack (28mph) on a 29er MTB.

The bbshd is way quiter at 36 volts as well. Some of it is the shear mechanical noise at high RPM. Some if it is exaggerated due to camera placement. But really with chains and this power greater noise is unavoidable with a mid drive.

I'm pretty sure it's going to ship in around two months. They have a backlog to clear. I am checking this though. Shoot Jon at CYC a message and he will likely give you a timeline. If you tell him the bike you are using and the bb type and width that will help also. Links to CYC in the description. Cheers

I'm not really knowledgeable about period styles. Things come around though. It reminds me of the Jetsons with the noise it makes. Somebody told me it looked steam punk the other day. I had to look that up...
