   The wheel is offset to right so I had add spacers to the left brake pad.
   I installed this kit on my Schwinn Meridian three wheel bicycle. Everything worked perfectly. Top speed on level ground is 20 MPH just using the wheel. That’s fast enough as the three wheeler is not very stable at speed.

   Controller very limited, no need to spend money on a nicer display, just get the cheap one
   Works well and 500 watts can take 450lbs of load 25 miles pretty consistainly on a hilly route, however the PAS sucks,reason being it sucks is because the throttles power is limited by the pas settingJul 15, 2025 12:45 AMSo if you set your PAS to, say, level 2 just to get low-level assist, and you want a temporary boost with the throttle, you can’t — because the throttle is limited to that same level 2 power. So now you have to press buttons to raise the PAS level just to get more throttle, but then when you pedal, you get too much assist when you don’t want it. Exactly the kind of assist you would want — but only when using the throttle. It just sucks. I ripped off the PAS sensor and gave up on cadence. I just set it to PAS 9 and use the throttle as needed. Basically this controller is limited crap, just by the cheapest display to pair with this controller anything else is a waste of money

   I installed this on our Tandem and it still carries the mail with 400 lbs on the wheels
   My bike has the old school rim brakes. This rim seems to shake some when braking. Disc Brake Bike would be Great with this system. I use the rear brake more than the front due to this. I installed this on a tandem bike and I ride with my disable son on the bake seat. Works great even with 400 lbs total weight on the wheels. Acceleration is great. I prefer the throttle that is built like a motorcycle. This system requires you to use your thumb.

   Everything came pretty quickly, and quality appears good on all components. The one issue is that the 1t4 cable is considerably shorter than the 9 pin. Because I’m running my wires through the frame of a step-through bike, it won’t reach the rear rack-mount battery (which it should be noted has a small compartment built in for the controller so you don’t need to use the included controller box. The 9 pin wire, which covers basically the same distance, is long enough to reach, which means I’ll have to get an 8 pin 1t4 extension cable or a different 1t4 entirely. It’s a niche case though, and since most people will be using a different battery and the included controller box I can’t really fault them too much.
