I was going to build a mid drive after selling my Bomber but couldn't find anyone with a suitable frame that is in production to be able to ride this spring. I started looking around for a possible hub motor build as its easy to get used to the power these things can produce and noticed a vid on Youtube about a new manufacturer in Quebec building carbon fiber frames. A couple of emails later and I was in business. The people at NYX have been great so far answering all of my questions and were quite willing to provide me with the bike I was dreaming of. We settled on a bunch of parts which have been arriving slowly and I'll be taking the 8hr drive east in a couple of weeks or so to meet up with the NYX Techs themselves and drop off all the parts I have. I think this thing is gonna be awesome when its finished! I really wanted a Schlumpf drive on it so Cedric at NYX did all the leg work on that part of the project and its gonna happen. A FOX 40 RC2 (Stealth edition fork), 24" Odyssey LITE rims (HOPE EVO front hub), HOPE Tech3 V4 brakes and floating/vented rotors, Straitline AMP pedals and direct mount stem, Renthal FAT bar, White Industries ENO freewheel, Thompson post and Cane Creek double barrel coil shock/450lb spring should complete all of the bike componentry. For electrics, an Adaptto MAX-E controller should provide copious amounts of amperage to the MXUS 4T motor courtesy of a custom made (by Mr. DoctorBass himself) battery. Charging will be handled via an Eaton 1800watt unit (Allex in Sweden provided me with the controller and all the charging equipment, thanks Allex). I'll fill you guys in when things start to happen.......Much appreciated to all the gifted individuals posting on this forum cause I could not have done this without your wisdom.
