Hi All, Long time no see, I got busy with other projects and renovating my house after my accident 4 years ago so didn't do much ebike stuff. Anyway, the freehub rachet mechanisum on my mac motor with the cassette freehub has stopped working. Feels very sloppy as well as not locking. Does...

I can hardly believe its been 6 months since my accident! My leg is doing pretty well. A bit stiff and achy in mornings and after sitting for about an hour making me limp when i get up but at least i can get round reasonably quickly now. My shoulder is still causing pain. Some days i can...

Anyone else here 3d printing with nylon? I recently brought a 1Kg roll cheap ($35NZD) to have a play since I already make successfuly prints in both ABS and PLA and it seems to be working well. Being on sale I didn't get any choice of the colour but bright yellow is ok. Taking me a bit to get...

Hope you heal quickly, im still recovering slowly and my crash was easter saturday. My accident /recovery is documented here. https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=68791 I was having too much fun showing my young nephews my ebike popping wheelies and came off breaking my leg...

A bit more progress with my leg on saturday. I was getting sick of having to kneel down to get at eye level with my 3d printer just to check something so I decided to try croutching again which i havent been able to do since easter saturday. I had tried it a couple of weeks ago but couldent do...

Finally got a battery for my rear light so i can try and ride at night after work to help build up tollerance to riding for my shoulder last weekend. Unfortunately i didnt get a chance to ride until tonight (Wednesday ) because of lieing awake to 3:30am monday morning before giving up and...

Yep, I definitely kept high pressure water away from the CAv3. problem was the bike was upside down to make it easier to clean the derailier area etc and I not really thinking ( had taken quite a few pain killers as my shoulder was really bad that day which doesn't help thinking) and in a...

I have looked at it closer and It appears that some of the wires in the back are really loose in the case and water could have easially got in there while cleaning the bike. Looks like I need to buy some natural cure silicon once I get it dried and make sure its working. On second thought...

After work today I opened up my Cycle Analyst and was greeted with a small puddle on the carpet as water run out. Not good considering at one point the power had been on with a bit of mist in the display, I hope it behaves correctly when I get it all dried out. So far there looks to be a few...

I had a short ride today. Dont really know how far because of somehow getting moisture inside my CAv3. Probably 4 or 5km max. My shoulder seemed a bit better now that the bike has been adjusted. Im not sure i like the seat as high as they put it but it is definitely easier on my knee...

Oops, Looks like I somehow got some water into my CAv3 when I washed my bike the other day. Also the weather is quite cool today which is probably not helping with the condensation. This much moisture is way too much for something that controls the throttle feed to my controller so looks like...

Hi All, I finially managed to get my bike to a bike shop to have it adjusted as ACC wanted that done to see if it helps my shoulder. I've been really busy at work with another important software release comming up doing 9+ hour days plus 1 hour of physio was leaving me really tired and no time...

I still have bathroom work to do. Just slowed down on that to save a little cash and order long lead time items and organise a plasterer for the gib board walls and ceiling. Ive got painting in the bathroom to do too. The outside wall of the house needs painting as most the materials are...

Well over 7 hours since my ride and ny shoulder is still a little achey although dulled a lot now that i took some good pain killers so i can get some sleep. It was really great to get the ev grin for the first time in over 4.5 months. Defintly felt good to feel the air rushing by as i...

I got on my bike again for the second time since my accident. There as been a run of wet cold weather that prevented me riding. I rode some pedal only, some a mix and some electric only but totalled around 15km allowing for the first approx 2km that my CA didn't record till i noticed the speed...
