Endless Sphere

those bikes are ridiculous! I wish I could weld like that!

Try Magura Gustav. I know Madrhino uses them because of their thin profile. I think they are the thinnest ones available.

I have the same problem ..above 52km it shows the wrong speed or goes to zero...

And if it works can you show your modification?

Turns out it stopped acting weird before I was going to do the mods!!! So I will leave it alone for now.

welcome to the sphere! i'll be brief (its getting late) so here it goes : 1- get a mountain bike with a large triangle in the middle for the pack. you can put your pack in a back rack but they tend to break easily. i know a member who is on his third already. mountain bikes seem to be pretty good fo...

Hey Farfle, I'm really interested in your rear swingarm linkage. How did you make it ? Are they all custom made pieces? Did you use a special BB? Bearings, ...etc? Having the swingarm link on the BB seems like a good and simple idea.

nice work!!! is that a dirt bike fork? if so, where did you get the headtube to make a good fit?

I use the ebikes.ca LED lights (cycle lumenator). I have 2 = 2000 lumens! It is the brightest I have seen. They are amazingly bright! and very efficient also. http://www.ebikes.ca/store/photos/Lumen.jpg

Unfortunatly I snapped my Cromotor axle yesterday after a heavy acceleration from a dead stop. I had made some room for larger phase wires... but apparently I shaved to much down :(. Now I have to figure out if it's even possible to replace. I have no idea where I can source a replacement axle and/...

great story Matt! Carrying your own means of transportation in your «pocket» is a good way to travel!

john, are there a lot of different options with bolt on rims? like diameter, width, ...etc. if so, could these rims fit on those 2 motors you have : the hubmonster HE and the mini monster?

Once I realized that after 5 years orbiting the 'Sphere, I not only joined the EV Grin club but I also joined the M.E.N.S. club, I had to think of a more fitting name for the folding bike. So here goes: The MENSTRUAL Cycle: M otorizd E lectric N onhub S ystem, T orque- R aised U ltraportable AL umi...

Hey Alan, nice bike! I have the exact same motor as yours on a different frame, What kind of freewheel is that? I have purchased 2 single speed freewheels and they wont fit :evil: One will not screw on all the way (so that its flush), and the other one has the right thickness but the diameter is too...

what a great video! Thanks for sharing!

DP version, will try shielding the hall wires. Thanks Amberwolf!!!

I noticed that my CA is giving me weird speed data above 50kph??? Its giving all kinds of readings and changes really fast. My pole count is right, the shunt value is right. Any ideas???

do you mean the add-on current throttle mod on the CA??? That gives you a throttle that's proportional to power, rather than torque, so is better in some respects than a typical ebike controller that has a throttle that's proportional to speed, but isn't quite as nice a feel (IMHO) as a throttle th...

It seems to be perfect for hubzilla. 4000 continuous watts and 10,000 burst watts.

Dont mean to be OT, but can you fit a CA on those?

fixed! Well... turns out there is nothing wrong with it! At 100 volts, the throttle is so sensitive that even the slightest variation will cause it to jerk. What we need are better throttles for running 100+ volts. Maybe an Algorithm could be programmed in the firmware to make the throttle response...

I noticed this morning my controller started stuttering a bit near the end of my commute. It happened when I was accelerating at maybe half or 3/4 throttle. Its the first time it happens and i did not change any settings on the CA or the controller before this. Is there any protection inside the con...

if you're going to run this bike with that much power, I highly suggest some moto rims and tires. The handling is so much better! Talk to John at http://holmeshobbies.com/ He's awesome!

Great job Fractal, the bike look great :D The motorcycle rack is a great idea, I paid 600$ ish for a fragile bike rack that wont allow me to increase the wheel base at all.... What is your average Wh/km and what distance can you do an one charge? Thanks Adam, the rack really works great. The price ...

ok i go it! in the menu it was still set at 6s. so i changed it to 12s and bingo! thanks everyone!

so i tried charging at 12s. everything is plugged in perfectly but i get a battery connection error. the input voltage is 13 volts. is it possible that its too low for 12s. the manual dosent say shit!!!! (tried charging eac 6s packs separately and it works) The "battery connection error" ...

Yes, that's too low for a 12s pack. It should be a minimum of 42V and that's lower than you should take it. Oops, it's saying your input voltage is too low to charge at the rate you want to charge at. Either get a bigger power supply or drop charge amps rate lower. it says battery connection error....
