    eBike SideCar... (lots of pics)

    I was thinking of the possibility of someday making a two-person ebike. The configuration would either have to be a side-car or tandem. When gas gets really expensive, the wife and I will both have to ride places together....

    The Spotted Thread!

    I saw one on my way to work a few days ago. Too bad I was driving! (I drive on Tuesdays when I have school after work). It was a mountain bike with a front hub motor and a smallish battery mounted on the back rack. A few months ago, I saw an older man riding an electric tricycle! That was...

    Is my e-bike upgradable?

    Great info xyster! I will work on putting the heatsinks on today and will see how the bike does on the new ride to work in two weeks. I know it will not provide sufficient power to go up the hill, but hopefully it will not shut down. What can I expect from adding the extra 12V?

    Is my e-bike upgradable?

    I may actually be able to afford to risk killing this controller. What would go first, the motor or controller? When my new one arrives (assuming it will), I may be up for the experiment of "another 12v NiMH pack of the same AH capacity or higher". Can I just splice the wires from the new...

    Is my e-bike upgradable?

    Thanks for the input DrunkSkunk! I am working on solving the current problem of overheating. A new controller is on back-order (has been for 2 months) and I have purchased two large heatsinks that I will use to "sandwich" the controller. Here is a quick question about mounting the heatsink -...

    Currie goes belly up

    NO!!! They owe me a new controller. I finally got them to admit that there is a problem with my bike and send me a new controller under warranty. Last time I called (2 weeks ago), they said that the part shoud be in next week. I better call them again. Too bad... :cry:

    Bought a new bike! (new member)- update

    Thanks for clearing that up Tyler! Because of the location of the conroller (on the bottom of the frame, below the cranks), I don't know if I should try to open the case. This would make it prone to getting wet. I've been riding the bike like this for a while now, so I can wait. Regarding...

    Bike shuts down

    Hey thanks for the replies! I actually have been pluging the bike in right after every ride. And this happened toward the end of the ride. I did not know not to do that. And the battery is probably pretty warm. The fram felt a little warm. I won't get to try it for a little while. Going...

    Bought a new bike! (new member)- update

    Was looking at some published specs and saw this - Controller: Exclusive Currie Electro Drive 24 Volt Fully Potted. So I guess if I will upgrade, I'll have to get a new controller.
