    New project

    I had a drum on the front of current brake. Used to smoke under heavy braking. Hehe Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

    Fair enough. I might hook up regen and see. Maybe regen and front only might be a good option. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

    Damn it. I thought this was the build thread. Sorry can an admin move this over to where it belongs? Thank you Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

    New project

    As I've just been basically sacked I no longer have access to all my tools, a workshop or free materials. [emoji24] And my wife absolutely hates my hire ebike build. [emoji2357] I've been looking for a cheap project to fit my leaf to. And here it is. Ladies beach cruiser...

    Difference in range

    I really like the thrust line. So I'd need 22lbs of thrust to get up a 10% incline. Really interesting. Thanks again. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

    OK cool. More voltage more speed. More ah more miles. Generally speaking. Thanks dude Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

    Difference in range

    Running a leafmotor. Would a 14s8p give me more range than a 13s8p? On a like for like basis. Although it is a higher capacity, it'll draw more won't it? Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

    Leaf / leafmotor / leafbike high efficiency 1500w motor

    What are the standard connectors on the leaf motor controller? I cut them to fit into a single connector and that was a mistake. Can't find which ones they are? Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

    N.E.S.E. the no solder module

    From a beginner perspective cost will always play a role but agree you don't want to have to snip off each weld, sand back and start again. This eliminates that problem Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

    Leaf / leafmotor / leafbike high efficiency 1500w motor

    Yeah. I mean all other ROAD users are required. Cycles use the road, well at least in the UK. So why are they special. And honestly most cyclists that I know or come into contact with are arrogant dicks who think they have more rights on the road than anyone else. Think it's only fair. I...

    N.E.S.E. the no solder module

    If you factor in the cost of a welder for a beginner who is only going to make a handful of packs in his lifetime, maybe even just one. Then this is a cheaper option. Yes it does take up more room but you just factor it in. It may not be the most suitable application for everyone but I think it...

    Leaf / leafmotor / leafbike high efficiency 1500w motor

    I actually think that cyclists should have to have public liability insurance. I don't think that ebikes should have to be registered as mopeds until they're up their in the power and speed range although. That's quite easy to do. But I imagine being hit by a moped at 30mph is still very...

    Leaf / leafmotor / leafbike high efficiency 1500w motor

    That's really interesting. I was looking into going for msva later on when I think of building a moped. S-pedelec was a possible option but you still need a number plate, then insurance, etc. Not sure how much S-pedelec insurance would be. So might as well go full moped. So kits are kind of...

    EU only - Legality ? Share your experience.

    Only issue I've heard about in UK was Andy kirby off YouTube. But then again I only know a handful of people that have ebikes. Couple of friends who are cops said unless it's blatantly obvious like do 40mph on a pushbike, or throttle only up and down kurbs, etc to avoid traffic lights or...

    250w output. Also not allowed throttle. Not too many police but there's only soo many cyclists you can piss off before you get grassed up lol. Currently riding it in standard form. 37.5mph top speed, awesome, awesome, awesome fun Want to compare legal ish and fun. Also been asked to fab...

    Leaf / leafmotor / leafbike high efficiency 1500w motor

    Just looking to have a play really. 250w is max legal limit in UK. So want to see how it rides if made legal. Already have the LCD 8 so figured would make use of what I had already. Agree about the nucular controller but not an option at the moment although we will upgrade in time. Sent from...

    I was looking into soldering 1-2mm thick busbars in a non spot weld manner. So ultimately an even distribution of load is the best option, even over less evenly distributed but much bigger series connections. "' Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

    Are all these generic Chinese controllers compatible with the leaf motor and LCD 8 screen? I'm looking for a 48v 250v controller compatible with the leaf motor & LCD 8. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk
