    Ezip Trailz TNC Scooter 36 Volt Motor???

    Hello, Test ran about 5 miles last night. It is a little slower and the torque curve seems a bit flatter than 36V on the 24 Volt system feels more like 24 Volt system with strong batteries but a bit more robust than that. This is all subjective. I checked it after letting it pull me up a long...

    Ezip Trailz TNC Scooter 36 Volt Motor???

    Any body out there buy one of those bolt on replacement 36 V 450 motors from TNC Scooters. I bought one and it arrived tonight. I burned up my 24Volt motor with my LIFEPO4 36 Volt battery. Did you change your controller too??

    Thinking of getting an E bike

    It's not the underpowered part that bothers me. It's that a set of batteries is hundereds of dollars and they lose value and charging ability over the life of the batt. AND I cannot pull into a station and get more power if I am 20-15-10-5-2 miles from home and the batteries crap. I am still a...

    Thinking of getting an E bike

    The law is very muddy on ice bicycles. For the most part, THERE ARE NO LAWS covering engine assist bicycles so it becomes a judgment call. It's a bike that happens to have an assist motor on it. (Thats my story if I ever have to tell it). I have passed 5 police officers who had PLENTY of time to...

    Thinking of getting an E bike

    Well, I have two Ebikes and also have about a 6 mile commute. A Mongoose Currie 24V 450W and a homebuilt brushless hubmotor with the Mathurin Mods. My Currie is underpowered enough that I use it on the ramp at the airport where I do some work to go between hangers and just leave it there except...

    Back vs front for Hubmotor mounting

    What makes the back wheel better(safer) than a front fork for mounting a hubmotor. I had my second flat (other wheel) in a week and had the back wheel all apart and was looking at the wheel mount points for the rear wheel and they don't look that much stronger than the front wheel. I have no...

    Drat! Got My First Flat

    Jinx is right.. I walked into the Garage last night and found my Motor tire FLAT. That was that cheap chinese rim/tube/tire. Pumped it up and heard hissing and found a hole in the tube when I took it apart. Lasted a year.
