FAQ's

An e-bike conversion kit is a set of parts that allows you to convert your traditional bike into an e-bike. It typically consists of a motor, a battery, a controller, and a display. The motor can be installed in the hub of the rear or front wheel, but it’s best to install it on the bottom bracket for better handling and efficiency. The controller manages power to the motor and battery, while the control display shows various information in real time.

Yes, our TSDZ2 bottom bracket motor kit can fit many types of bike, including city, mountain, racing and even cargo bikes. The design of our kit makes it easy to install on most bicycle frames without the need for modification. However, we recommend that you check your bike’s compatibility with our kit before purchasing.

Installing the electric bike conversion kit is fairly straightforward if you have the right tools and the necessary knowledge. However, this may vary according to the type of frame and components already in place on your bike. We therefore recommend that you read the compatibility guide carefully and follow the installation instructions included with your kit.

Our TSDZ2 electric bike conversion kit offers many benefits for cyclists who want to transform their bike into a practical and eco-friendly mode of electric transportation. The motor provides consistent and reliable electric assistance, and the battery can deliver a range of up to 100 km. Our kit is easy to install and comes with open-source software that allows you to precisely adjust each setting. By choosing to convert your bike into an e-bike, you’re also helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions compared to buying a new bike.

The TSDZ2 kit features a central motor for more balanced weight distribution, improved ride feel and more efficient power transmission than wheel-mounted kits. What’s more, this can extend battery life and provide better assistance. We wrote an article about it.

The torque sensor measures the force exerted on the pedals by the rider and adjusts the assistance accordingly (not like on Bafang BBS01 motors). It is more precise than speed or rotation sensors, providing more natural assistance. Accuracy depends on model and build quality, and the TSDZ2 kit sensor is considered highly accurate. Just take care not to put your feet on the pedals when starting (1 to 2 seconds) to allow the torque sensor to initialize.

The kit comes complete with the motor, battery, charger and display of your choice, as well as everything you need for assembly: screws, cables, cranks, clamps and a special wrench for the main nut.

For assembly, you’ll need sets of Allen keys (2.5 mm / 4 mm / 5 mm / 6 mm / 8 mm), a Phillips and flathead screwdriver, a torque wrench (optional), a crank extractor, a bottom bracket removal wrench, wire cutters, a “removable” Loctite Blue threadlocker and a few extra clamps.

No, the kit is made in partnership with well-known Asian manufacturers (Tongsheng, APT, Wuxi). Our aim is to limit environmental impact and encourage the local economy, but for the time being only the design, programming, quality control and after-sales service are carried out in our workshop in France.

The kit cannot exceed the legal limit of 25km/h. However, if you use the Expert screen, you can change this limit (using a password), which will make your electric bike illegal on public roads. You’ll be able to reach high speeds of over 35 km/h, but this can damage your electric kit, void the 24-month warranty and entail significant risks.

Yes, our bike electrification kit allows you to convert your bike into an electric bike, and you can also dismantle it and put it on another bike. Thanks to this, you can easily adjust the equipment to suit your needs.

We offer a two-year warranty from the date of purchase. You can benefit from this warranty provided that you use the kit in accordance with the legal rules governing power and speed. To extend the life of your kit, we recommend that you follow the instructions for use, such as storing it away from humidity, using it at temperatures between -10°C and 40°C, recharging the battery regularly and avoiding use in extreme conditions.

Our electric motor kit can be used with a maximum load of 150 kg on flat ground. However, it’s important to check your bike manufacturer’s specifications for expected weight limits (usually between 100 and 150 kg). The kit can be used on most terrains, but it is important to take precautions on steep slopes or uneven terrain to avoid overheating the motor and battery.

TheOpen Source Firmware with the TSDZ2B 250W motor offers many advantages, including an exceptional riding experience thanks to sophisticated algorithms. These enable the electric bike to be responsive, fast and agile, while providing optimum assistance that can be customized to suit your riding style. Finally, thanks to the regular availability of updates, the Open Source Firmware offers always up-to-date performance for your motor.

Obviously, the first major difference is their capacity—and therefore the range they offer—with the 250 Wh battery having a shorter range than the 630 Wh battery. But that’s not all: the 360 Wh battery is lighter and more compact than the 540 Wh battery. On the other hand, the 540 Wh battery features a more robust mounting system for your frame! The choice is yours 🙂

The battery is secured using a mounting plate and M5 screws (included). Simply screw the plate into the holes on your frame designated for the bottle cage, following the recommended spacing. The plate offers several mounting points so you can adjust the battery’s position to suit your preferences. The 540Wh battery mount features a steel plate that is more resistant to vibrations than the 360Wh battery mount, which is intended for road riding.

As a buyer, it is important to be aware that battery production involves extracting many materials from the Earth, which has a significant impact on the surrounding biodiversity. At Syklo, our batteries are equipped with high-quality cells to ensure optimal use of resources and a longer service life. By following the usage guidelines, you’ll extend the life of your battery and contribute to more efficient energy use.

Yes, the battery comes with a 42V 2A charger equipped with a DC jack (2.1 × 5.5 × 12 mm) for fast charging in about 3 to 5 hours.

Yes, the battery is removable and can be recharged away from the bike. For optimal charging, we recommend using the charger included with your bike electrification kit. To extend the life of your battery, be sure to charge it after each use and store it at room temperature (between 10 and 20°C). Avoid letting the battery discharge completely before recharging it, as this can damage the cells. It is important to recharge your battery at least once a month and never store it when it is completely discharged.
