LET US CONVERT YOUR BIKE seamlessly to A 250w Mid Drive ebike.
Will the Bafang BBS02B 250W integrate seamlessly on my bike ?
The 250W mid motor integrates with bikes that have a BB (Bottom Bracket/Crank ) of 68mm ~ 73mm.
Most Bikes in South Africa meet these standards.
It is however important that you check yours first to make sure before deciding.

48V 17.5AH : AVERAGE RANGE 110KM
SEAL.

LITHIUM BATTERY CHARGER.
48~54v 3a
Battery chargers start at 2A and go up to 5A.
The higher the Amps (A) the faster the charging.
However using a 5A Charger can also cause damage to cells.
We have tested and found that 3A offers the best steady charge whilst preventing the damage to lithium cells.
D-power charger has a cooling fan to keep the charger from over-charging.
And a power indicator to show you if your battery is full (green light_ or still charging (red light).
PEDAL ASSIST.
Maintaining a steady heart rate level is detrimentally important to their health during exercise.
The 250w Mid drive has 9 levels of Electric pedal assist (PAS) .
PAS helps you maintain a steady level of power no matter how steep the gradient becomes.
PAS is controlled via a Plus + ( for more power assistance ) Minus - ( for less power assistance) .
This button is controlled via a console on your handlebar.
Simply increase + and decrease - the level of power as you need while riding.
Increasing PAS not only helps you up steep hills , it also alleviates pressure on your knees , hips or shoulders which prevents injury.
Goal achieved : Ride and exercise longer than you would normally be able to.
THROTTLE.
In addition to PAS (9 levels of pedal /power assist) we also install a safety thumb throttle. When the throttle is engaged it over-rides the PAS.
This is particularly helpful when wanting immediate forward momentum.
For example : From a stationary position on a steep hill or stop street or at an intersection where you just want to quickly get to the other side.
In an emergency situation where for whatever reason you need instant thrust power.
Knowing that you have this back-up gives one peace of mind even though you wont need to use it most of the time.
lcd display.
A colour LCD display is installed on your handlebars.
This is also the console where you manage the level of power assistance (PAS) ,speed , time , distance and battery level.
You can also get an estimate on how much distance in km that you can still get based on the level of PAS you want to ride in.
This helps you plan your trip and prevent range phobia.
With the “C” USB at the base of your display you can connect your cell phone or charge other devices as needed.

Safety comes first.
We Check your Mechanical parts to ensure they work optimally to ensure seamless integration with the e-drive system installed.

In addition to installing a Gear sensor , we also install cut-off safety brakes.
Cut-off safety brakes power the motor off immediately the moment you touch your brakes.
Giving you immediate stopping power at any given moment.
