My DM02 was a little noisy for the first couple 100km after it was broken in it quieted down. There is a moulded rubber seal around the wires, and in general has better weather proofing. No mid-drive is waterproof.

Thanks for the comment, I am sure not everyone is aware of that. I do charge to a 100% occasionally for that reason.

I bought the charger from Myles at www.affordableebikes.ca but he is out of stock.

The weight is not really a problem on the Trike. Enviolo is inefficient at the high and low end, but I like no stepped shifting and micro shifting to match my cadence. The S&A 8 speed is so fast on a 20" wheel. 44+ km/hr chasing down a carbon racer 😆 More DM02 is in the work with the new firmware, and my setting, likes & dislikes.

👍I have used that solution on other bike builds, Stacking two magnets on the spoke, was a simpler and faster for me and has worked for 3000+km

The DM02 500w 48v push me and trike @ total 245+ lbs, easily, using less than 200 watts, @ 30+ kph, It's a bit of a workout for me, but that is what I like about Torque sensing, I get a workout and greater range.

@@hisforhack Oh it calibrates automatically using less than the full 500 watts, and with you working out, it will on average use about 200 watts, unless of course you need to go up some monster hill, or some other big pull. I was thinking 500 watts all the time, but it only uses what it needs. Makes it even better. Of course if I get sick, I can override the torque sensing, and just let the motor do it all, but I am not going to give up the only gym I have, my bicycle, so I especially favor the torque sensing. I am thinking of putting the 42 tooth sprocket on it they have as a standard choice. I had considered a 34 tooth so I could ride home easier if my motor gave way, but with an 11-46 rear sprocket I could get home even if I had to walk up hills. A smaller front sprocket could take away from a lot of efficiency at higher speeds, and I might even want to consider their 48 tooth, but we have some pretty big hills where we live in Spokane WA USA. Thanks for the stats.

It was precooked and spiced pork, ate from many Bicycle Food venders the 2+ years I was in China and I survived 😋

@@hisforhack thx for the info

@@hisforhack It looks plentiful , that can be my breakfast + lunch it seems lol .

I installed a Sturmey Archer 8 speed IGH with a 42T 48T chainring. Video is in the work with spring upgrades.

I believe you with need a offset adapter, Google "Eccentric Bottom Bracket Adapters BB Adaptors" you should find more info.

@@hisforhack Good info. Thank you for your help!

The DM02 runs a lot cooler, I had to replace the torque sensor coil on the TSDZ2 after 3000km, I have 500kms on it stock TSDZ2 and 3700kms with the OSF installed, over 4000km total. The DM02 firmware needs some work, but mechanically I think it is better engineered then the TSDZ2

@@hisforhack thanks for your reply. This is good to know. I do have a slight problem with the TSDZ2. Sometimes it will hesitate for a few seconds before assisting me when going up a hill. It started doing this a few months ago. Im

The DM02, DM01 and the TSDZ2 use BCD110 chainrings. The DM02 42T chainring has a 10mm offset to improve the chain line, the TSDZ2 has 5mm offset. I replaced the original DM02 42T "chain guard" with a standard 48T chainring and the DM02 42T chainring with a small 34T chainring, and used the original bolts. I can hand bomb the chain between the 48T and 34T if needed (never needed to) Remember because of the Enviolo IGH and the long chain on the Trike I do not have chain line problems you may get on a bike with a derailleur. I have some drive train changes coming for the spring, Snowed today

I bought the DM02 because it is legal in Canada, at 500 watts, 32 kmh. It is more than capable of pushing the trike and me to 44+ kmh on the flat. I don't see a need for 1000 watts.

The DM02 is presently on the trike, The TSDZ2 was derated to 350w (Heat), so was slower but had a little more range. The DM02 still had about 100km range with a 48v 14amphr battery and was faster. Video come on the DMO2 range, Still below 0c here, when the weather warms I plan to testing a new 8 speed IGH, Grin Tech CA3, torque sensor and Hub motor. Retest TSDZ2 and DM02 at rated 48v 500w.

Thanks I am in the Niagara Region, Ontario, Canada, Hundreds of Km of flat paved Bike trails perfect for recumbent trike ride

It is a vinyl coated Fence post bracket around the boom bolted to the Motor

The cable on my DM02 were extra long. I did need an extension display to move it to the left side steering. The speed cable was long enough to reach the front wheel.

A standard 5pin display extension cable is all you need

Thank you

Thanks I am working on a 1100km review video, and a comparison DM02 vs TSDZ2 osf with
