Cheers dude, epoxying the sticker into the battery case was a bit of a trial but worked a treat I'm happy to say.

They were all printed in PLA yeah. So far everything is holding up perfectly fine. Battery hasn't moved a mm :)

Built a 250w (peaking at 700w) front hub BMX last year which was a ton of fun. I quickly started looking at building a 2nd BMX with some more oomph. Opted for a 1500w CSC Front Wheel Hub kit installed in the rear, combined with a Yosepower 48V 13A battery. Despite dropout being 110MM the 100MM...

Completed this build now. Unfortunately the custom PAS disc did not work as the sensor appears to only read when disc spins in 1 direction. Flipped the magnets to no avail. Hey ho, printed a 2 part spacer which holds the PAS disc on the crank on the lefthand side and job done. Cables are...

Ended up going a different route than planned. Started playing with a 12.5ah YosePower battery from my commuter bike which just about fit in the BMXs frame. Found this a much cleaner solution as the controller is built into the battery tray so ordered a new battery + mount / controller and...

Trying to eliminate as much loose cabling as possible. Tbf I don't mind a bit of tinkering so if this doesn't work out I'll have to live with some cabling and a mid mounted enclosure. Printed the enclosure, took 41h at 0.3mm and 600g of filament or so. Still need to print 2 lids for it. Next on...

Thanks, yeah the additional weight is something to take in account when getting up to speed. I've got a basket on my 700C bike which is often filled to the max so have some idea of what to expect. That's a very clean built, if the centre console turns out to be a failure I'll likely end up...

My other half recently got an ebike, and as much as I love riding with her, there's no keeping up for long going 15mph on a BMX. Only logical solution was to get a 20" Hub kit and get to work. Ended up buying a Yosepower 250W front hub. Doesn't take much to get up to speed on this bike so don't...
