You mounted that drive wrong. It shouldn't just hang like that. It moves up "flush" with the frame so that the bafang logo is almost horizontal.
Amazing that you have a channel. Bought my BBSHD from Golden Motor over 2 years ago. It has survived 2 bikes and 2 years worth of daily commuting to work. It has caused me to become much more proficient in bike wrenching, but it is an amazing new hobby. I do wish you stocked more parts for it though, as I have had to source many wear and tear items from the US. You helped someone like me with spinal issues get back in to biking. Doc said it would never happen but I even biked all last winter. Keep it up.
Thank you. We have have added a lot of parts for bafang maintenance. And we can get any part you need 😉

Just fitted the 1000 watt BBSHD paired with a 52v 19.5 ah battery to an inexpensive mountain bike I bought new around 6/7 years ago for £180 in a half-price Halfords sale. Very impressed with the outcome - not worked on bikes since I was young so it took around 5 hours but I could do a second one in less than 2 hours. It goes very fast and hills are a thing of the past!
Hiya, thinking of also adding one to my bike. Can you use just throttle and also do the UK ones come limited in any way? Cheers Rob
I fitted MY BBS01 With 750W to a bike I bought for 50€ .
Are did you get on with bbshd ? Do you do any mountain biking? Was there enough clearance
Thank you SO much for this vid, I don't know why i had it in my head that the motor could not be positioned straight down...the setup I've been looking at has been restricted by the frame....this opens up loads of ideas and will save me $$$...again thank you SO much 🥰
doesnt get much clearer and more concise than this! thanks!
hands down the best tutorial on how to install bbshd
they should really have that bafang tool with set
So cool!
Thnx i needed this! Looks great!
I watched this many times. Thanks The best out so many as I was fitting my BBSHD, 52 Battery with 24.5 AH, Gear sensor and the works. Thanks a heap.
Hey, where you bought 24.5 AH battery can you send link please?

From other install videos, most have the motor pivoted closer to the front tube so it's not hanging so low.
Yes, that motor is now very exposed to rocks etc He should also have added some loctite to the thread of the first ring holding the motor
This is bike with internal cabling so the slot for the cable doesn’t allow it to go all the way up
Thank you for a great video. With the help of this video I think I can convert my Giant Escape Hybrid.
awesome video man these seem so much better than hub motors. thank you for the info
One of the best step by step videos i saw on his topic. Would have been even better subtitled with captions.
Nice Job. Thanks for sharing!
Great video love it! Could I put my own chain ring and crank arm like maby a hope technology?
Thanks for the video. It is one of the best that I found.
Really well and understandebal explained, have a difficult Adhd that makes everything a mess in my head if not explained well.........so I am really grateful for all of your videos. I have a Bafang 1000w that I'm going to install on an NukeProof mountain/hill bike 🙏🏼👍🏼👊🏼
Reg// Mike
Thanks for the info helps a lot! One thing I'm confused at is does the kit come with brake cables or sensors?
liked the video, just curious if it'd work without the sensors (speed/brake)?
Great Vid.. Watched while putting a Kit on my Bike.
Glad you enjoyed it
such an amazing video thankyou! looking on a bafang kit for myself.did you shorten the chain?
Great installation guide. Can this motor be installed on a 3 spoke bike please as I see the speed sensor is attached to on of the spokes. My bike just has 3 metallic spokes
The allen wrench you used to tighten the crank arm is 11mm. Process of trying the Bike Pro Kit which 10mm is highest. Non standard size special order. Task is to replace crank wheel from 44T to 32T.
Just pulled the trigger on a Bafang kit and battery. Will follow this video and hopefully, have little to no issues. Wish me luck bois! haha
How'd it go? Ordered my bbshd on Friday. Purchased half twist throttle. Did you have any issues? What display did you run? Battery?
@@devinrichman5282 incredibly easy. It is just like it looks in the videos, it's basically plug and play. I have the 850c, the colour screen, which works great
I hope it works out for you
Did you find any issue with the brake wire because of the clearance of the frame and the motor is quite enough? The brake wire still need to run between the frame and the motor, correct?
Amazing video
Was looking to do the exact same build, with the exact same bike 😂😂😂 Thanks so much!!!!!!!!!
I have the 2019 Norco 7.1, what size battery did you end up fitting in there? Im about to purchase.
Thankyou
Just about to install this, I will be using blue thread lock on the main bolts & also greasing the bottom bracket socket
I have a Schwinn Ascension with 1x7 and 30T front ring. What ring should I pick for a 750W kit? not doing anything pro, mainly commuting to work with some long but not to much incline hills.And occasionally trials with hills but no racing.
I'm interested, I take it you have to use the crank arms supplied though? I'd rather keep my race face cranks just for known strength.
I have an Aspect 950 with a 42T with a 73mm bottom Crank. So if I buy a 42T 1000W Bafang Mid Drive Kit do you think it can work out? I'm thinking of also adding a 52V Battery that I will buy separately. I'm doing as much research as possible to see if its worth it to spend 1K on a mid drive kit.
I can't decide which type of mountain bike to use. Preferred aluminum first, but maybe chromoly might take greater heavy loads of batteries and better shock and impact? For 5,11 I'm wondering frame geometry, and frame and wheel size to use with heavier load and responsive steering. Oh, but any frame i get will have front suspension. Seems like a must.
Do you know of a supplier for an adapter when the bike has a larger diameter bottom bracket ie.41mm
Hello, thank you for your video. I am wondering about the adaptability of this engine with my bike. I have a distance of 78mm and not 73mm of length of tube in which to insert the bottom bracket mark. Can you tell me if I have to take a 90mm bafang motor or if the 73mm will be fine? Thanks in advance, Jean-Louis
Are you are you are measuring properly ? You have to measure the painted area
You would need a 100 mm with a spacer kit
goldenmotor.bike/product/spacer-ring-set-for-bafang/
Reach out @ admin@goldenmotor.ca if you need help ..90mm are a bit harder to find we can help you source it
@@goldenmotorNA Thank you a lot ! First, I will try to find by self.
What about the shifter ? And do I need the shifter sensor just wondering because I am doing it on my downhill mtb bike
What size frame is the norco bike frame? is it a small, medium, large, or extra large?
Which motor would you recommend for a full suspension mtb bike . I use on the downhill trials but don't do many jumps
Hi, I didn't see the speed sensor magnet gap between the two can it be 10mm gap or even 5mm? I'm at that point now, thanks.
Hey, thank you.
Don't you have to rotate the motor up toward the frame before tightening? No other install vids show it hanging down? Oh and you didn't install the chain ring cover 🤔
Lol don't worry, found the answers in the comments 👍
Is the NORCO Storm 1 2022 would fit like yours ? Thanks!
Hey thanks for such a great video 👍
-Why remove the front derailer?
-Why remove the gear shifter? Is it not needed then maybe one can just buy a 1 gear bike for this installation?
-46T chain ring is it the number of teeth on the ring?
You don't need the front derailleur because with the new setup there's only one chain ring, so there's no changing gears. But you still need one gear shifter for the gears in the back.
Yeah, I don't see why you couldn't do this with a fixie (one gear bike) 👍
@@zyphoxx Use a cheaper hub motor is you're using a 1 gear bike.
@@zyphoxx this would be like driving a car with only one gear. it would toast the motor in no time.
Zyphox thanks. My exact questuon answered. So I'm leavungbthe shifter on but removing the hi-low derailleur from handlebar. Ibthink I got it. Looked high and low for that answer. Take care
Excellent video. I just ordered my kit and will refer back again when I install. Thank you!
How did your build go? I just ordered the BBSO2 Kit and I am beyond excited to start my build
@@ChuckTaylor_ how did your build go??
I've been told that bufang has motors that clamp to the frame so the bikes own pedals and crank can be utilized. Anyone know if such a motor exists and can you recommend video on this, thanks
you're talking about a hub motor that is mounted onto the back wheel hub.
@@chrisv.noire.6388 No, there are "bolt on" rear motors on Amazon pretty cheap. They literally just bolt onto the frame in the back. The kits come with a special chain ring that bolts to the side of the rear wheel, and then a smaller chain connects to the motor. They are cheap, but also LOUD and not nearly as clean looking.
@@chrisv.noire.6388 no i think he is talking about the mod drives that mount above the crank onto the frames downtube
many thanks for the helpful video, friend! I intend to convert my 26" cruiser bicycle... a question please? this 68cm motor size, in regards to bracket attachment. is it universal or will I need to measure my bicycle's particular bracket opening and match?
It’s 68mm it refers to the bottom bracket size. Measuring is a good idea just in case it’s something odd. If you need help measuring feel free to reach out at admin@goldenmotor.ca
Looks simple enough, thinking of doing this to my 2021 Devinci Riff, a lot cheaper than buying a ebike from Devinci
Thank you Golden Motors this really helped me install my bafang motor 👍
I have one issue with my install and that's the 8mm allen screw that is fitted on the pedal crank arm.
Everytime i ride the bike that screw unscrews itself and the crank arm gets loose. Have you ever experienced that and what's the solution to fix it.
Loctite blue
Hi,
I have the Norco 7.1 storm, do you think your 52v 21ah Max Jumbo Shark Pack will fit in this bike. Its the same as you are installing the 17.5 on.
Thanks
The 21 won’t fit . The 17.5 ah is a perfect fit
Isn't it standard that the stock chainring doesnt really align at center of cassette, mine also is the 68mm BB kit and my BB shell is 68mm wide but I find it aligning to the 3rd highest gear instead of the center, meaning shifting to bigger cassette cogs would bend the chain a bit too much, just wondering how yours doesn't seem to have this issue
Might need a 42 lekkie bling ring
Thanks a lot. Most informative video I've seen on this and you didn't miss a step.
Didn't use any thread locker
Can you help me I have a Trek caliber x9 will this monter fit and is battery included ?
Can you use other Cranksets?
Currently using a 1x9 bike. Do I have to use the chainring that came with the kit? Or I can I use my current chainring?
The chainring that comes with the kit is dished. If you use your own chainring, even if it fits, it will be off axis to the rear sprockets.
Should be able to get a bafang chainring with the same number of teeth
Can u install a throttle? I have a abfangen hub, battery of 48V, can I just install the mid drive and connect to my battery?
It looks like you went from a 2 sprocket front drive to 1 sprocket. Any alignment issues when shifting?
I did then I changed over to the 40t here check the video below
czcams.com/video/flSQsO4xnIw/video.html
@9:50 I'm about to try this myself... one thing I don't understand is how to install the motor... in particular should the finned part be down at the bottom (6 o'clock) or rotated (more like 8 o'clock)??
It should be up . Every bike is different that’s the highest it would go up on this bike
@@goldenmotorNA Is that just for ground clearance?
Hi I have some questions do you think I can ask you about some of them?
Maybe not.
Can i use my ordinary bosh battery with the bafang motor? I have one left.
Is there a adapter 4 this?
When fitting to this frame Norco Storm 4 is it possible to angle the motor closer to the down tube the video says you can’t but another comment says that you can
We can not but I did grind some of the aluminum on the cable housing and now the clearance in much better. I will make another video about it soon.
I want to convert my bike into an e-bike with the Bafang BBS02 kit, but I'm worried that the single front chainring may not align perfectly with the rear cassette (eight chainrings). Any suggestions?
How does this not damage the bb threads?
Im assuming this conversion kit isnt compatible with a 3x bikes, i.e 3 chainrings in the front.
Nevermind, I saw he removed a front derailleur, meaning this bike was likely a 3x drivetrain.
Does attaching the motor and the other equipment make the bike all electric or are you still able to use gears and manually pedal
You can absolutely use it like a regular bike. :)
I have a terrible problem with skipping on the bottom ( smallest) 3 gears. As soon as I go over 200W it sounds like a machine gun. Chain properly aligned, new chain and cassette... will not go over 35km without skipping. any ideas?
Just a simple question , when you removed the bottom bracket in earlier clip , and then in later clip you say insert motor into bottom bracket I never seen you put the bottom bracket back in , it's confused me a little
ciao wanted to ask you in my tests I found an unsatisfactory power. I'll explain: up to absustency 3-4 ok good engine work with pedaling. but then from 5-6-7-8-9 is superfluous help and in climbs to 15% or made ato as a muscular do not feel the help so strong of the engine bafang .. I use a 52V battery in your video I see that very strong and very well..
can you help me understand? what could it be,,,, in addition to the pc plows
Most mid drive Bafang and CYC mid drive motors do not fit Bosch gen 4 brackets or have I overlooked something.
How do I know if my bafang bbshd controller has the 52v firmware?
reach out to where you purchased it from. they should be able to tell you.
or use a fully charged 52v battery with it. if it gives you an over voltage error then the firmware is 48v.
Hello! Can u pls help me? I have a KTM ultra fun, 1x12 speed bike, with a 34T chain wheel at the front. Can I install Bafang mid drive set? It comes with a 36T chain wheel. Will it suitable without replacing the full drive? Thank you!
Yes you can
Does the bafang kit provide the tools
Can i get a range and speed on this spec? Estimate amount please
Sir,how I buy this all kits for my cycle 🚲
Can you tell me which cheap bike I can buy so this motor will fit please ?
Is this waterproof/ resistant?
what's the difference in 750 and 1000 and do you still shift gears on th back wheel?
If there were no shifting it would not require a shift sensor. Right?
750 watt is less power than 1000 watt but to be honest, there hardly is a difference. Only torque would have a great improvement ( which is very helpfull when climbing)
Yes, you do shift with the back gears. Only the front derailleur (or the front gears) will be removed.
Is the battery included?
What size is this frame? is it a Large?
No bottom bracket comes off that easy! Even brand new ones.
Sir, Its very clearly video to how montain bike converted to Electronic bike Nice 👍🏻 I think u from India 🇮🇳
Can you place motor above the front tube to better protect it?
I've seen some older bikes with Chrome Molly frames be able to fit a 250w motor in between the frame. Not sure if the bigger motors would fit.
My BB is a pressfit 30. How do I install?
Do i need the thumb throttle? Its illegal where I live
Great video! Do you absolutely need to install speed sensor?
It is not an absolute must but it will cost more in cogs and chain over the long run
@@goldenmotorNA That's for the shift sensor. What about the speed sensor?
yes you need the speed sensor. If you do not have it on, the display will give you an error 21 until it detects the speeds senor/magnet.
@@goldenmotorNA Thanks! It's weird though because I have several BBSHD's and some don't require the speed sensor to be hooked up and some do. Have you ever come across that? Maybe because the ones that don't need it hooked up are tuned to 52v?
@@nettoyageadriance my
why did you leave motor hanging down? , i think i will pull mine up against the frame on this step.
Does it not work with cable brakes?
HI, do you know the total price of this build? Iike the prices of the kit and the battery altogether?
whole kit 8 or 900
You lost some extra gears when converting right?
Bike manufactures should start making it possible to put after market electric bike cables inside the bike frames!
quoi la différence entre un plateau 46t et un 42t plus de vitesse?
4 dents de différence mdrrrr
What chain was used?
wait so where is the motor controller? i didn't hear you talk about it. is it inside the battery box?
It’s integrated with the motor
My bike's bottom bracket shell is 70mm, not 68mm. Do you think +2mm will cause any problems?
It shouldn’t be a problem
My Motobecane 500DS needed a rack off the seat post. No biggie...but no way to fit a battery on the frame.
....pro install, only bad part is the creepy music, try some "hard rock" , softly , on your next one like bother Jimmy or the zeppelin😎
What if u have mechanical disc brakes
is that an aluminium frame?
Didn’t show how to install new chain or sort chainring alignment
Anybody know how to measure you're bikes pedal diameter
i can not get my sensor to pick up at all no matter what
great video, thank you! but please get rid of that music, it adds nothing.
