    Can the small block work well with just one stage of reduction? I figured it would be a higher RPM, two stage reduction thingy.

    Yikes, that doesnt sound good. I wonder if bumping up to 20S makes all the difference. Ive had a BBSHD and a cyclone3K before. Both were nice but the cyclone blew my goddamn mind even at 14S. Its just all business lol. Cruising around with people using 500W hub drives, the Cyclone turns you into...

    Have you looked at CNC converting a benchtop mill? Find a decent used milling machine (like a G0704) and convert it for a few hundred bucks. Use it to build your own 4th axis for indexing and rotary stuff. It would come in super handy having a CNC mill at your fingertips. If you have the money...

    Thats just nutty lol. The XXL may actually be too large for a practical ebike mid drive. But great for heavier vehicles. Id still slap one on a mountain or DH bike just to see what happens, but thats just me.

    Yes Im getting the idea that the big block is the most powerful mid drive out right now. The 6K cyclone is definitely cheaper/smaller, but has a kit featuring several controller combos, with displays, which is nice. Im really wanting a small but powerful controller pushing 5kw or more, with some...

    Why is the CYC disappointing? Im gettinbg either the Cyclone 6kW, single stage LR big block,or the CYC X1 pro. Havent decided yet,still gathering info. Can you compare it to the LR BB drive?

    new cyclone 3000 w mid-drive kit?

    Has anyone tried the "tiny" 200 phase amp controller in a high power application yet? Looks too good to be true.

    Controllers for the cyclone mid drive?

    Yeah I saw the flow charts and did just that. I think I have a thread about it on here. Id love to see someone try it out. Would have been awesome to run the BBSHD at 72V with the cyclone "tiny" controller. I think I still have it laying around actually.

    Controllers for the cyclone mid drive?

    It wasnt wired up wrong. I tried every possible permutation and combination. It would ONLY spin backwards. This was the 72V 40A "tiny" controller from Luna. I bought 2 and both behaved the same way.

    Controllers for the cyclone mid drive?

    I once tried to run a BBSHD on a cyclone controller. It would only spin the wrong direction. Was that the controller or the BBSHD that was "going the wrong way"? Id love to try something like this on my cyclone. Will it work? https://www.ebay.com/itm/115170410261 That controller

    Bosch power pack BMS raplacement? Can it be done?

    I have an old Bosch power pack. Id like to gut it and replace the cells and BMS. Its from a Haibike. Will the pack work like normal with a common 10S ebay BMS? I have a few laying around. Thanks! Edit: I mean will the bike run as normal with a battery with an aftermarket BMS?

    Bizarre behavior from Luna Cyclone replacement controller. Help?

    I replaced a friend's KT controller (on a Rad Rover) with a Cyclone replacement controller recently. Luna advertises them as being identical to the stock controller in terms of wiring. The bike had a standard 3 wire PAS with black, red, and white wires. This was the same as the controller, so I...
