Fury-E

  • My first eBike conversion!
  • 2009 Carrera Fury (I bought for my 40th Birthday)
  • Re-born with a mid-drive eBike conversion (Bafang BBS01b) in July 2025
  • 2025-07-25-15-26-21.jpeg
  • powered with a 36V 17.5 Ah (630Wh) downtube Hailong battery (panasonic cells)
  • conversion kit was attached to ((50e1b924-1f96-459d-9eff-759f5f8aed28)) and bought on Ebay for £360 (bike+kit)
  • needed bike shop to help remove and attach the motor to the Fury (those lock nuts are tight!)
  • Pros
    • The 80nM torque power for them hills!
    • Physical gears in case battery juice runs out
    • Felt creative building it - like one does if they have ever built / assembled a PC... or Lego
    • Not reliant on a manufacturer for support (they do go bust)
    • Price!
  • Cons
    • Cadence is not as natural as Torque
    • Slid down a boundary in the park - greater risk with cadence bikes?
    • Cannot call on a manufacturer for support / service issues with the motor
      • Probably replace it if it ever broke
  • Replace in future with…?
