They made a mistake you need to correct, the rubber padding that is between the motor holder and frame is double. You need to remove one and place between the motor and frame as well.
I've been wanting to convert my bike for awhile now but every video I've seen has been on bikes with 1by drivetrains so I was pleasantly surprised to see your video featuring the Sport version of my bike, I have the Expert trim.
Seems like a really expensive motor on a really cheap new bike frame with really low end components. Odd value proposition. I would think that most of us are looking to add a motor to a “old” but high spec MTB in the basement.
the wiring is not covered by anything and are pointed at the area where most splashes are coming from the rear wheel. what's the IPX rating for the motor? I know that connectors are waterproof but reality is, that those really are not waterproof.
Great video,How many miles do you get on this bike, while averaging 30 miles (48Km), does this motor overheat if you using throttle while you doing 30 miles (48Km), no one mansion estimated mileage range, can you also mention top speed and what size chainring you use 32,38,or 42, reply is well preciate it, you also get new subscriber to channel.
hi. My bike is equipped with a 500w motor and a 13a controller. I am going to change to a 20a controller. I know that bldc motors can withstand 2-3 times the power, but I wonder if this is true.
Hi I'm from Melbourne Australia could you tell me the tool I need to take out the bottom bracket the socket and can you use the same socket when installing the cyc kit I have a crank removal tool I have a Norco storm 3 I no you have links but they aren't for Australia if you tell me the tools I need for this kit I will buy them at 99 bikes I love watching you fit kits I have fit a hub motor kit on my gt now I want to get a cyc I think they are amazing and they have torque sensor which I don't have on .y other bike it's pas ans I don't like it.
Thats great except you would loose all the mechanical advantage the derailer offers. Of course you could add an internally geared rear hub but that would really increase the cost of the conversion. Also I'm not sure there is a way to use belt drive with this motor system in the first place.
I'm confused. Why the extra chain? Why not drive the chain ring directly like the Bafang BBS mid drives do? I built a similar setup a few years ago using a car alternator as a motor but it was terrible. Maybe partly my fault for poor build quality and maybe the alty motor was not up to the job but the design was poor from the start. Well made video though. 🙂
@@alibro7512 Well there are pros and cons. The Bafang is quiet whereas the CYC has a whine due to the gearbox reduction. But because of the external chain drive the CYC can be mounted much closer to the frame or even (like I did) moved into the frame triangle. The Bafang would hang way too low for my needs.
With magnets is better? this kit have battery which mounted on frame via magnets, here you can see why i made the 3D printed bracket to make better surface connection with the frame..
