Metal Gear Shift Sensor for Bafang Mid-Drive Motors

The Metal Gear Shift Sensor is a practical e-bike accessory designed to improve gear shifting on electric bicycles equipped with compatible Bafang mid-drive motors. The sensor detects when the rider changes gear and temporarily cuts motor power during the shifting process, helping to create smoother and more controlled gear changes.

Featuring a durable aluminium housing and IP65 protection, the sensor is designed for everyday use on electric bicycles while helping to reduce stress on the drivetrain during gear changes.

Performance

The sensor detects gear changes and temporarily interrupts power from the motor while shifting. This helps reduce the force applied to the chain and cassette during gear changes, allowing for faster, smoother and more controlled shifting.

By reducing motor power during the shifting process, the sensor can help minimise unnecessary strain on drivetrain components and contribute to longer-term chain and cassette durability.

Compatibility

Designed for use with compatible Bafang BBS-series mid-drive motors, the sensor is suitable for a range of electric bicycle conversion setups.

Compatible with:

• Bafang BBS01
• Bafang BBS02
• Bafang BBSHD
• 36V systems
• 48V systems
• 250W systems
• 500W systems
• 750W systems
• 1000W systems

Please check your existing motor, connector and wiring configuration before purchasing to ensure compatibility.

Durable and Weather Resistant Design

The metal housing provides a lightweight yet durable construction designed to withstand regular use on an electric bicycle. With an IP65 waterproof rating, the sensor offers protection against dust and water splashes, making it suitable for a range of everyday riding conditions.

The lightweight construction weighs approximately 29 g, helping minimise the additional weight added to your e-bike conversion setup.

Installation and Contents

The sensor features a 3-pin male connector for connection to compatible Bafang mid-drive motor systems. Installation should be completed according to the manufacturer's instructions and your specific motor configuration.
