In fact i'm intersted in a BIKE conversion and not motorbike.....I think (and I dream) that everything human have invented (without the clear intention to harm the biosphere
) may find it's right use...I like technology but would like technology follows intelligence.....
I am a frame builder/developer and for me this build is like a "toy"....my bikes are used for freeride-downhill and the frame I choose for the conversion is a 2002 old frame that I really love, and also after these 10 years it looks really recent, due to it's strange, unusual and innovative design....if i put it on the market today I'm sure it will meets the favour of a lot of people...(would be also strongly criticized of course, for the same reasons).
From 2002 I (and the guys that worked into this frame) look the bike and we say: she misses only the motor.... :wink: I remember that in the 2004 we was interested in a wankel motor to fit in
Some months ago we decide to go electric....and cause we build frames with lightness and style (personal)in mind...we was thinking about the lighters vehicles (electric) in the sphere....this led us direct in RC flight....I found ES googling around RC flight motors.....
RC seems for a newbe like me, complex and not already reliable, but in these few months in the ES, and learning with friends and web, I'm convinced (for my expectations) that RC is a way that worth to be followed...not maybe the best, maybe a bit dangerous (Lipo reputation) and dangerous to ride but as y say I have an 89s Husky and also an old yama rd500 2 strokes that are not really easy to handle.....
In my projects there is also a pedelec that fits europeans laws, and I plan to use on it A123 batteries and an "easy" 500w power system in a front Ti-Carbon XC frame...but is another history and not near..
The IDEA of this FR-DH E-BIKE is different: Up-hill in paved or unpaved road to reach the Start point of a DH track an then switch off motor and downhill with a bike that is manageable like a late 90s DH bike (25Kg) but with new components..
..the battery box will be easy removable, so you can theorically change battery when discharged, at the end of the track, put it in charge, an mount another charged pack to continue the fun....
If I really reach this objective, I may think about offer this kind of fun for guests, In my small bikepark, where untill now we have to uphill bikes&bikers with my Landcruiser....ther's no liability problems, because every guest already signs a release of liability to use tracks/bikes and the tracks are in a private area.....we are speeking about DH...it's an extreme sport.....
I know, the project is ambitious, like a lot of the ES's projects (for this I'm posting here)....but also my first frame build it was....and no-one of my friends trusted that frame would become real....but after 13 years I'm here always building frames....and let me say: for the pleasure of doing it, and to make ideas materials, certainly not for money....as market is not my strenght, and don't want to pay a manager for this.... in the firsts building years, when I tryed to sell frames for money intentions, the big Italians and foreign frames brands have always trying to steal my ideas and discredit my home-made brand....In fact more than half of my frames have been given like for free to very young guys who wanted to start the Gravity career.....
Luckily I have a different business/interests: a forestry bio-farm (with wind, solar and biomass as energy sources and a small trekking-bike-motorbike park here in Tuscany), and my family obvious... now with the new entry...my beautifull son...
Have a nice day and life

ok easy, but cannot well understand where/how to put no load values
