@@Phil8219 going 8 months now, think it's a good kit (it's the torque sensing that puts it above the others, though yet to find out if it stands the test of time)
@@chuffedrider Yes, the torque sensing is excellent for the price, I also wanted it for the clutch system as there is no drag when using it without the battery. I have had mine for just over a year, put about 3500 miles on it. I have had a few issues with it working loose on the bottom bracket and the offset chainring starting to rub against the housing, I moved the chainring to the outer side of the spider to stop this, worth watching out for as it would damage the motor casing over time.
If you get issues with the motor working itself loose, I found packing a thin metal shim inside between it and the bottom bracket, I have not had any problems since doing this as I think it reduces any risk of movement when under pressure.
The bearing mod in the above video is worth doing on the non chainring side. I tried the spacer behind the sprag clutch, but there was not enough room on my motor, so I would suggest being careful if you attempt to do that as well, I abandoned the idea in the end.
How long have you had the kit installed, and how are you getting on with it?
