Customer photo review of CYC Photon Gen 2 Mid Drive eBike Conversion Kit

Kathleen P.

The Photon Gen 2 from Cap Rouge was easy to install with the right tools, the motor is quiet, smooth & very powerful straight out of the box without needing to make any settings changes, it eats uphill rock gardens for breakfast in mid power level 3, the chain line is straight, the gear changes are smooth, I'm totally satisfied with the Photon Gen 2, I keep my torque wrench & hex socket on the porch table, to sinch the cranks up to 55nm before each ride as they can loosen, buy a torque wrench & ...

Kyte S.

This throttle is awesome. The discreet appearance, the responsiveness. I have it on both of my bike's and wouldn't settle for anything else. Not an upgrade but an essential in my opinion.

Customer photo review of CYC X1 Pro Gen 4 Mid Drive eBike Conversion Kit

Daniel F.

It’s amazing, I can cruise along keeping up with traffic and don’t break a sweat! Quite fun going up and down through the gears and hearing the motor change pitch like a motor bike. I even got the front wheel to lift as I launched off the in front of the traffic, pedalling with full assistance. The guy next to me in the hot hatch looked completely confused.

Never opened because I can still communicate with old controller via PC. So I sent controller back unopened with my complete HD bafang kit for you to diagnose. Cheers Grant

John T.

The Silverfish Style Battery from Cap Rouge is a perfect replacement for the battery on my son's Leitner ebike. After a couple of years it had pretty much had it, requiring a recharge after even short trips. Fitting the replacement was very easy, 10 minutes is all it took and it was working. Thanks again Ben, excellent service as always.

John T.

The BBSHD (120mm) is a perfect motor for my fat bike! It was an easy build... I've done several BBS02s... and provides ample power for the steepest climbs out on forest trails. Can't wait to try it on the beach. As usual the service by Ben at Cap Rouge was first class. Only too happy to answer questions and make sure your purchase and experience is A1. Five stars every time!

Customer photo review of CYC Photon Gen 2 Chainring Set

Kathleen P.

I asked Ben to change it to the 38T, as the 40T would have touched the swingarm, the 38T is a perfect fit for the Norco Fluid & the chain line is near perfect, I like how easily replaceable the chainrings are as well, nice work CYC!

Christopher C.

For someone with no bike mechanic experience, identifying which bottom bracket tools I needed was confusing at first (since there so many types bottom brackets). But once that was figured out and bottom bracket / crank puller tools were bought, it was relatively easy to follow the many videos available on Youtube and install the ebike conversion kit over a weekend.

The CYC Photon is a highly refined price of gear. The high build quality, natural feeling torque sensor, Isis spline cranks and near silent operation are the standout reasons to own one. It is the best in it's category bar none and Cap Rouge matches that with excellent customer service/support and extremely fast shipping. Regards, Paolo.

I’ve fitted both my recumbent trikes with these batteries. Motors are Tonsheng TSDZ2 and TSDZ2B (the latter one also acquired from Cap Rouge). Both batteries perform really well, giving around 95km on maximum power assist. Great service from Cap Rouge - excellent communication, good prices and quick delivery even to WA.

Customer photo review of 36V 14Ah / 504Wh Rear Rack Samsung eBike Battery With Rack CPSSE36-14-WR

Martin P.

Very prompt delivery. The rack is of sturdy aluminium construction into which the battery box fits very nicely. Documentation was lacking, especially regarding the (designed) tight fit of the nuts for the battery box attachment screws. However, it all went together and works well. Cap Rouge are responsive to customer concerns.

Martin P.

I found the kit to be very complete, even including cable ties for attaching the speed sensor to the chain stay. It was well packaged and delivery was super quick. Documentation was sparse, particularly regarding the wiring, which needed some thought to connect, and the display where the online manual needs to be updated. However, Cap Rouge responded quickly to all my queries resulting in a successful installation.

Kenji W.

I purchased this battery as part of a build to do a 30km return daily commute on mostly bike paths with some decent elevation. Paired with the CYC Photon this battery provides excellent performance. in the first week I got 75km range using race mode 3 (pedaling and using the throttle for some hills) and still had power left. The bracket has plenty of mounting options and I added some wider washers to the bracket to support the weight of the battery.

Kenji W.

I’d done a fair amount of research into eBike conversion kits and landed on the CYC Photon for the balance of power, torque sensing and quality. Ben was super helpful confirming suitability for my build, an entry level mountain bike to do 90% commuting and 10% gravel and single track exploring. Ben shipped the order promptly and the motor bolted easily onto the 68mm bottom bracket. The Photon kit is super high quality and with the 34 tooth chainring gave me a perfect chainline on a 9 speed wide ...

Customer photo review of 36V 250W BBS01 Bafang Conversion Kit 68-73mm & Tiger Shark 21Ah Samsung Battery

Raymond S.

I was really pleased with the installation of the motor, all went to plan. Suggest you watch some of the YouTube videos on the subject. As it was an older bike I did have to change the 7 speed cassette, and the gear selector as it was an all in one with the original brakes. Unfortunately I didn't do my homework on the battery's physical dimensions until after I ordered it and it was too big for my bike. However I added a pack rack, mounted the 21AH battery there and all is good. Really pleased ...

Fantastic service as always... Ben is super helpful and always ready to give good advice. The chainring improved the chainline by a couple of mm and with the narrow-wide tooth pattern slipped chains are a thing of the past.

This bike is now over 2 years old it started as a bare Giant frame & was built around the Bafang bbs02 750w kit . Love it but decided to lower the chain ring count & went for the Lekkie parts. Have had a lot of fun on this bike 👌

This is a must if you have a 73mm bottom bracket spacing when installing the bafang motor. Makes the motor fixing very secure. Yes I would recommend definitely recommend the this lock nut.

Henry K.

From rusty old 1987 Graecross Jakaroo MTB to a very functional eBike. The ebike conversion kit was very easy to install. Everything fitted properly. Just make sure you measure the bottom bracket and select the appropriate size motor. If you want a range of over 100km get the 22wh battery. If not save weight and get the smaller battery. So far I am very pleased with the performance.

All good easy fit just disappointed that it has no way of locking power off with a key 🔑 anyone can turn the switch on the battery and ride away if it doesn’t have security chain on and they even get stolen with them Loved the way everything needed was in the kit right down to the cable ties

Customer photo review of CYC Intuition Display

Kathleen P.

Nice addition to the install, the speedometer has large numbers, so I don't need my glasses & no more squinting, just the quickest glance & eye's back on the road! same with power level not as large as speedo but still the quickest glance is all it takes, with the smaller display I would have trouble reading it quickly on the go like I am with the intuition display! I use glasses but not for riding & driving only reading.

Helen N.

After measuring existing battery was glad this matched exactly and fitted my bike. Was uncertain when blue indicator lights did not stay illuminated when pressed to show charge level but it must be a variation to original battery. All good and had an awesome ride yesterday.

This throttle works much better then the cyc one. Its more controllable with way better modulation. Its not just on or off it controls your speed from a crawl all the way up to full speed ahead. Personally I think the cyc one is very dangerous, especially with full 6000 watts of power. It put we flat on my back with a couple of broken ribs.

Very pleased with the result with this replacement battery. Came with new plug base which was good as the original was different in size and number of pins, a bit of solder and file had the new one in place in no time. Also larger capacity than the original. Been on a few rides of late and have not flattened it as yet. Willl be a good purchase if you have a similar bike.

Chris P.

Hi Ben, The kit arrived not long after, the only problem I had was bottom bracket was Shimano 3 piece where i had to file out the centre, but all sorted. Took it for a test run and was pleasantly surprised how quiet and smooth it was, the assist was great as I am a Senior with some health issues, so its given the bike and myself a new lease on life. Waiting for some warmer weather to go on a long run. Not sure if you if the photos went through...let me know. Best regards Chris Percy

Great info, advice, website & prices, oh almost forgot fast shipping... Just getting used to having my gearing right, not just hooning around in 9th gear/ L5 assist using throttle only... If you're thinking about it, do it... Just check that 1) it'll fit, 2) chainring sizes and 3) your power Vs battery requirements.

I purchased the 20Ah as a spare fory Super73 SG1 - The bike has a 15ah which is good, but having the extra ah gives more km.... Was super fast postage and battery is just as described. I'd buy again from here if the need arises. Tha KS for the great service

I have fitted a cyc photon motor and 36v 720wh battery to my Jamis renagade S3 gravel bike . I am very happy with the result . I have approx 600 km on the system now . Most of my riding is in hilly terrain (Upper Murray region) and I am doing rides of 60 to 80 km with 120w of assistance and returning home with 2-3 bars left in the battery . I wanted a system that still felt like I was riding a bicycle but with a little help on the hills and this system has delivered . Thankyou Cap Rouge .

Unit was fairly straightforward to install and is working fantastically. I live in the Dandenongs in Melbourne and the 14aH battery is enough to get me 4 x 20km round trips to and from work on a single charge which I was impressed with given its roughly a 200m change in elevation from work back to home each night up the hill. Had a few teething problems with the install but Ben from Cap Rouge was fantastic in following up and helping to resolve them. Bafang unit as a whole is pretty rugged bu...

Ive never built an E-bike before and this kit was pretty easy to install. The torque sensing is phenomenal and you can decide how much work you put in using the assit levels. I've put 400km on the bike since installing. Using a 52v 20ah pack I got over 100km of range on rough gravel tracks over a few windy days. Unrestricted mode is insane and you may feel the front wheel starting to lift as you pedal. Definitely recommend hydraulic disc brakes and good tyres as I guarantee you will end up g...

Customer video review of Lekkie BB86/92 Bafang Adapter

Tim K.

Fits exactly as described. My bottom bracket outer diameter was 48mm and I did indeed need to use a 2mm spacer which was not supplied with the kit on the sprocket side. My shell width is 92mm and with the supplied 6mm motor spacer it aligned well. I would recommend getting the correct lekkie socket tool to tighten down so the correct torque is achieved. I used a pipe clamp and put some scratches on it (very scratched up bike any way so whatever)

Alistair M.

I have a 29 NCM Moscow Plus. Comes with the factory 768 capacity battery. I usually get about 65k distance on the PAS settings I use (normally PAS 6 everywhere). With this new 1200 capacity battery I get 93k distance. This is a bit less than I was expecting but I still very happy with the new battery. Of course I could extend this distance by using lower PAS settings. Battery fits exactly in the standard cradle. Very happy !!
