Vela 1 E-Bike mod
I own a Vela 1 and would like to increase its speed limit to comply with the new regulations of Brazil; it is currently limited to 25 km/h, whereas the new rules allow mopeds/motor-assisted vehicles to travel at 32 km/h. I’ve already checked, and it uses a Bafang hub motor (from the 8fun line). Does anyone know if it’s possible to change the limit without using those "de-restriction" chips designed for Bafang motors? Perhaps by modifying the code in the bike's electronic controller (I believe it's located in the brown compartment below the handlebars, though I'm not entirely sure). Has anyone done something similar or at least know if it's possible?
