good thing you're wearing the appropriate safety gear for your 1 handed speed runs and tough 1mph downhill runs👌

Outstanding review, I ordered one because of this. I’m a 54yo dad and I want the workout and the torque sensor makes you use your legs.

Bought a Trek Marlin 7 Gen3 last year together with my wife, she’s going for a E-bike this year but I want to hold on to the Marlin. Will try to fit this kit and hope for the best that it goes along with the sram shifter and 12 speed cassette🥳

Really good review.🎉<br>I still think a shift sensor is a good idea if you want to maximise the longevity of your drivetrain.

I'm heavily considering getting one of these kits. I have an old Giant ATX.2 gathering dust that I want to make powered for getting around remote trails when back country hunting.

Hi nice video and explains a lot really nicely. <br>My other half installed the TSDZ8 on his hybrid bike with the 52 volt battery and the same controller you have. He finds it really good for hills and getting out the way of traffic easier.<br>He is now going to get the same kit for his mountain bike so we will see what its actually like off road , though I don't think there will be any disappointments 😂

Is that an old Trek Dual Sport that still had suspension?<br>That's really cool!<br>I also prefer a torque sensor kit due to the control and traction it has on the ground especially in traffic and wet conditions<br>And coming across such kit makes it perfect for shipping overseas without the hassle of shipping an entire e-bike with its battery so that it can be mounted on any analog bicycle including a Trek Roscoe!<br>Would be amazing to have a 29er MTB chassis with 150mm of suspension travel that can go 30mph to easily keep up with cars and motorcycles on the highway of a 3rd world country!<br>That will far surpass the torque and power of the flagship Trek Rail eMTB!

I have 1 in a Voodoo hoodoo frame. It dose around 40mph max with 42V 20aph battery. The throttle won't get you to that speed so you need to use the pedal assistance. Also it won't get out off my local dean. That hill is just to steep & it stops around 10ft from the top. Good effort though & I would still recommend the Tongsheng 48V 750 Mid Drive Motor Kits TSDZ8. I am planing to upgrade to a 60V battery soon to see if it can make the bank in the dean soon. I do recommend the shift sensor. Someone at work change my gears while locked up in the bike shed. The result was my chain being snapped something I hear happening often because you peddle to change gears. Anyway i would highly recommend keeping a second chain in your repair kit.

Good detailed video.

I've had one for about a year and a half now. I've done a couple of thousand miles on it with no issues. I did need to cinch up the bottom bracket after about 1000 miles. It's a great piece of kit! :)
