Motobecane Taz 3 TSDZ8 E-Bike Walk Around

Motobecane Taz 3 TSDZ8 Walk around and talk about bike and build.

I fitted mine to my gravel/commuting bike two weeks ago. It is a huge improvement over my previous TSDZ2. My only issue is the delay in the motor responding to me stopping pedalling. It has made for some "interesting" moments when entering corners.. .

I agree! I love the motor compared with my Tsdz2b OSF. There’s definitely an overrun I had to get used to 😁

Waiting on mine, going on a recumbent cruiser with 20" wheels and rim brakes :D It's geared so I won't be going much past 20mph before the assist RPM maxes out, so I probably won't need better brakes for a while. Might do a conversion later.

Just ordered mine off ali express but have cancelled the order because of bad seller reviews , so when refund comes back ill order from somewhere else , but want the kit with the ekdo1 display , bet the power is a lot more than the TSDZ2B

[@MRJohnson01]

I have 2 TSDZ2B motors that are running OSF and this motor is much more powerful than they are. It’s like a Bbs02b if it was torque sensing. I’m hoping for OSF for this TSDZ8. That said, the TSDZ2B motors are very responsive and take less time to activate.

Are you still satisfied with the motor? I currently have installed BBS02 from Bafang, but I'm thinking about switching to TSDZ8. I read online that people have problems with left crank arm becomes lose. Do you also have that problem? any other problems?

[@MRJohnson01]

Hello, I haven’t had any problems with my TSDZ8. The crank arm needed tightened once after I installed it. The latest software update has been better. Being a torque sensor motor I think you would like it. I wouldn’t be afraid to check out the TOSEVEN motors as well.

[@micha9032]

Which one is better TSDZ8 or Bafang BBS02?

[@MRJohnson01]

I prefer the torque sensing of the TSDZ8. You get the power of the Bbs02 but with the fun of the torque sensor!

[@darrennorthall9774]

What display did you get ?

[@MRJohnson01]

I got the EKD01 Bluetooth display. It works fine but can’t change the wheel size from 26inch to 29 inch for some reason. Hopefully they will release a software update.
