Re: Blew my controller. Please advise......
Thanks, that's a good tip. I replaced this controller with a new one, but I still have it around so I might check it out using this method sometime. Funny you should revive this old thread this week DD, I used your wheel building tutorial posted on electricbike.com this week to build a wheel. Great ...

FL "motorized" cyclist killed in turtle collision
Story doesn't say if it was gas or electric, but I hope it wasn't a member here.

Re: BMC powered BikeE for Comfort and Range
I had one of those types of packs for awile and thought about using on the Bike E. If I had used it, I would have put it i. front of the seat on top of the rail. It was very tempting, but I eventually went in a different direction because at the time I think those packs were only available in 36v co...

Re: Studebiker is getting low & dirty.
That should be a fun project. Have you ridden a MBB recumbent before? They can be challenging to learn how to ride. Also the way the rear stays are designed will transmit a lot of road chatter to your upper torso. Some of the Atomic Zombie designs would probably be more stable platforms and just as...

Studebiker is getting low & dirty.
Fresh off the completion of my latest E-Bike-E conversion , I have decided to venture into the home builders (the dirty part) world and build a dual 20" front wheel drive low racer (the low part). I have been interested in these low racers ever since I saw a Raptobike. bike_side.png The Raptobike is...

Single day distance record for e-bike??
SO spring is coming after a long wet winter, I've got a new bike I just love to ride, and I've also got a birthday coming up. I'm thinking that sometime near my birthday, I would like to take the whole day to ride my bike. I am curious what the most miles any one has ridden by e-bike in a single day...

It's a radically different ride than the CT models. That Cane Creek really soaks up the bumps way more than I expected it too.Cowardlyduck wrote:Looks great!

Re: An aftermarket product damaged my bike, who pays?
I don't understand why you won't post details now. If it's a bad product, then it serves the e-bike community here to let people know. You could be saving someone else from making the same mistake.

Re: An aftermarket product damaged my bike, who pays?
Yes, more info is needed. Bottom line is, a vendor that sells a crap product is unlikely to pay for the damages that product caused. This is why it is important to know as much as you can about bikes and e-bikes. That way when you have a sketchy product you can tell it's bad BEFORE you put it on you...

Re: Studebiker's Next (last?) Bike E.........
Looks great. Lovin the snowy scenery also. :) How do you find the bike handles with the weight of the battery so high and far back? I only ask because I've found the further rearwards and high I place weight on my CT model it really starts to make it handle badly. You should see if you can mount th...

Re: More volts less amps ? Im slightly confused.
Sorry to poach your thread, but for you guys with more experience, what is a reasonable length of time a MAC can sustain 2k watts? It is hard to say without more detail. I assume you mean the 6T (or is it 8T?) in 20" wheel on your BikeE, maybe going up a steep grade so as to maintain 2kW. Those are...

Please post a review if you pick one up. I've been curious about them. Chanes are, the lumens are exagerated, so it may be okay for the road.

Re: Cheap shopping trailer
I can find these old double kid trailers around here cheap pretty regularly. Old skis seem to be pretty easy to find too. I have this trailer finished now, but I just haveen't taken any pics of it completed, but it turned out great.

Re: Studebiker's Next (last?) Bike E.........
Not hijacking at all. It's good to share this info. The front suspension on the RX model is a little hard to see, but it is there. It used a device called an Englund air cartridge that was used in early suspension forks. Whereas forks would use two of them, the Bike E only uses one, placed in the he...

Looks good man. I am still working on my new one and ran into some interesting issues mounting a rear rack on the Bike E with rear suspension. My internet is not very good right now, but I'm hoping to improve it on Monday and be able to show some progress. Mounting batties on these is definitely a c...
