BAFANG BBS02 - Front Derailleur Removal

9
The front derailleur and front gear cables
now need to be removed. If your bike does
not have a front derailleur/ front gears you
can skip this step.
The front derailleur can normally be removed
from the frame by simply loosening one Allen
key bolt. The clamp on the derailleur should
unhinge in order to take it o the frame.
Now we are confronted with a tricky part.
You will nd that the chain goes through the
front derailleur.
If you don’t care about the front derailleur,
as it is not needed in the BBS motor
conversion, you can simply cut the derailleur
in order to remove the chain.
If you would like to keep the front derailleur
as a spare part, then you must remove your
chain.
This can be done easily if your chain has a
quick link.
If not, you may have to break the chain using
a chain breaker, as shown in photo 3.
If any of these steps seem to dicult for you,
please contact us.
Remove the cables associated with the front
derailleur that was just removed.
Reinstall the chain, with the front derailleur
removed and we are now ready to move on
to the motor installation.
