Philistine on the new Crystalyte G series motor:

will repeat what I said about the "sparrow" motor....

Apparantly Crystallite has offered to supply the first 100 buyers of this motor with a big tube of lube, a vial of muscle relaxant, and the Village Peoples greatest hits....

Not that there is anything wrong with it, "some of my best friends ride the G series"

Deecanio in his build thread:

"looking on ebay to get some nuts..."

I haven't actually gone over 20S to date. I feel like a guy with a 6 incher at a porno shoot saying that on ES, but I am pretty happy with 20S. I would probably swap any speed increase I got over that with more range, so I doubt I will be going over 20S anytime soon.

Even in the last year I have seen the most hilarious "voltage race" on ES. I remember when 20S and 24S were the big dong voltages on here, now 30S is the new 9 inch benchmark.

Bingo. 100hp in a motorcycle will never knock anyone's shoes off. 100hp in a bicycle will be like riding the essense of terror.

Heres a good one from Liveforphysics:

Liveforphysics wrote this gem of test-based knowledge that can save a few of us a bunch of money:

"All the Astro's being used on ebikes are a mistake IMHO. I used to believe. Lots of time dyno'ing various electric motors and building race bikes and burning up motors and re-winding and burning up motors has lead me to believe you're simply never going to get reliable high performance from a motor in a small package, unless your application is driving a prop at a near constant speed right in its efficiency zone"

Since Philistine admitted to being a professional snake, I'll admit to being a machinist for a huge oil corporation and my specialty is making high tech tools for sucking every last drop of fossil fuel from mother earth. How do you like me now bitch.

I don't exceed 190mph on every ride, maybe every 5th ride, because most days 170-ish is satisfying enough. I avoid riding in the rain because rain hurts a lot at high speeds, even through riding gear, and I run dry condition slicks on the street.

From John in CR:

I wouldn't doubt that there's even a strong correlation between Anderson users and Apple computer owners.

The only path to ensure failure in the EV battery industry is to pick a chemistry and stick with it.

Better yet - pick a chemistry, stick with it - then refuse to sell your product to 80% of enquirers because you are scared they will build bad packs and start fires - then build some bad packs yourselves and start your own fires!

Posted in a thead titled: Which bicycle can comfortably and confidently handle 35mph?

yur talking my same interest." first of all...the bearings/front & rear, have to be heavy duty/heat bearing/not let available for bicycles that can handle 20 to 35 mph. very unsafe in that respect, (as they will explode after long runs, so immagine what will happen if ur the rider." second of all, at 15 mph its very hard to stop....try 25,..i did-just to see...u do not stop, just slide forward, destroying the tires, generally goofing the brakes up & balancing.

Bad brakes, and destroyed tires, and exploding bearings... Oh My!

I have developed a new lithium iron chemistry that gets over 10,000 cycles at 75 degrees C, 1000 Wh/kg. It's LiFePO4-UT (unicorn tears). Will be released just as soon as the genetic engineering is complete. Plus unicorn meat is delicious and the horns are a superb aphrodisiac!

In the future of electric racing scrutineering, they'll eye your bike suspiciously and just hand you a roll of kapton tape...

Regular readers of this forum may be shocked to learn that in addition to this forum, my other main interest (forum wise), are those dedicated to libertine sexual practices. It occured to me after reading the OP, that if the administrators of ES could just allow "stealth bomber" and "glory hole" to be perfectly interchangable words in the forum, all my forums could be amalgamated into one, and still be pretty much meaningful.
