What the Pinion Does
Mounted on the motor’s output shaft, this pinion is the first stage of the BBSHD’s two-stage gear reduction, meshing with the secondary reduction gear to bring the motor’s high shaft speed down to something usable at the crank. Because the BBSHD is Bafang’s highest-torque mid-drive, this stage sees more load than the equivalent part on a BBS01 or BBS02, and it’s mechanically distinct — not interchangeable with the smaller motors’ pinion.
What to Check Alongside It
Metal shavings in the gearbox grease around a worn pinion are a reliable sign the mating gear surface has also worn, since the two parts run directly against each other under load. Replacing the pinion on its own when this is the case usually means reopening the motor again shortly after for the other part — worth inspecting both while the case is already open.
Fitment
Fits the BBSHD 1000W conversion kit. If you’re replacing this alongside other drivetrain wear parts, see the BBSHD nylon gear, metal gear upgrade and BBSHD clutch — all wear from the same load path. For fitting help, our full Bafang service covers this repair.
Warranty and Returns
Every Pinion purchased from All4eBikes is covered by a 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects, alongside a 30-day return window.
