Is the C961 worth it over the stock Bafang display?

If your kit came with a minimal or broken display, the C961 adds a clear speed, battery and trip readout plus walk assist and error codes. It is a basic LCD, not an upgrade to color or smart features.

Will it work with my Bafang motor?

It is listed for BBS01, BBS02 and BBSHD mid-drive kits using UART protocol and a 5-pin waterproof female plug. It is not intended for CAN-bus motors or hub-drive systems.

What is the speed limit, 25 or 50 km/h?

The specs conflict: one section says 25 km/h and another says 50 km/h. The limit is set in firmware, so confirm with the seller which version you are getting.

How many PAS levels does it have?

Listings show both 0-5 and 0-9 levels. Most C961 units ship with 0-9, but check the firmware before ordering if your setup depends on a specific count.

You get the display, the button pad on a 20 cm cable and the 47 cm power cable with the 5-pin plug. Mounting hardware is not always included, so check the listing.

No price is shown on this page, so there is no range to compare. C961 prices are usually lowest from overseas sellers during seasonal sales, but shipping time is longer.

Our take on the 36V/48V C961 Display

The C961 is a black-or-white LCD handlebar display for Bafang mid-drive e-bike kits, wired over UART with a 5-pin waterproof plug. It shows speed, battery level, trip and total distance, power, time and error codes, with 0-9 PAS levels, 8-level backlight and a walk-assist mode. It fits 22.5, 25.4 and 31.8 mm handlebars and is rated IP65. The listing specs disagree on speed limit (25 vs 50 km/h) and PAS levels (0-5 vs 0-9), so confirm the firmware variant before buying. No price was given for this page, so no price comparison is possible here.
