Title: New Transmission Child Board: Electric Conversions of "Manual" Bikes
Post by: Danneaux on February 25, 2026, 06:35:53 PM
Hey All!

Given the burgeoning interest in eBikes and electrification of "manual" bikes, now seems a good time to collect past posts into one repostory and create a place for new posts on a dedicated board.

Accordingly, I've created this as a "Child Board" under the Technical > Transmission category, similar to the Child Board on Belt Drive.

This is going to be a task, so please bear with me while I sieve through old topics and posts to populate this new board. I'll move the dedicated topics first as I find them and you can feel free to start new topics as you wish while I work on this. After awhile, I'll go back and delete the redirect notices for moved posts so the post structure looks nice and tidy again.

Some relevant posts are tagged onto other topics, so to preserve Board structure, I'll leave them be. To find them, use the Forum's search function. The following terms are most likely to bear fruit...

Bafang
Bosch
Coulomb
Controller
Display
eBike
e-Bike
Electric
Motor
Pendix
Sensor
Watts

Best, Dan.

Thanks for your continuing stewardship of the forum Dan. I'm sure all the Good Burgers of this parish appreciate it, particularly when we wander off topic. Good job!
