Hi Methods,

If you still need the Cromotor, I can send you mine if you take the delivery costs + whatever you can spare. It's laced into a SAS HALO 24" rim, which might suffice for your purposes.

KR, Henk

with the software connected I could immediately see some faults. Faults[0]: Controller over voltage Faults[1]: Filtered phase over current Faults[9]: Instantaneous phase over current Faults[11]: Throttle voltage outside range Warnings[7]: VdcLowFLDBK Warnings[8]: VdcHighFLDBK Warnings[12]: HiSOCFLD...

OK, finally the holidays have arrived. We had a great Christmas dinner, and most people have gone to bed now, so I have time to write something here. In the meantime, I have had several days of experience commuting with the supercombo.. It is really great! My normal commute is a relatively flat (200...

Love your bike and the stories AWD, please continue to bring them!

Hi John,

It's probably easier if you post all the specific characteristics of your battery, and CA and Phaserunner setting s,so other people can chime in as well.

OK, here is the breakdown. Warning: long post! Assembly I laced the Grin Hub into my 27.5 rim. After the initial mistake mentioned earlier, lacing was relatively easy, using 2.0mm black spokes with black nipples. Then I put a nice big DH tube and a Nobby Nick tire on it. In addition, I put a 203mm F...

Hey you did the same as me then. Guess what I am soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo glad I did because after mounting I realised that caliper bits clearance would have meant probably redoing it to outside in. Hmm, for me the brake caliper has just enough space. The heads sit flush...... I am the black s...

You can't believe everything you read but that bevel was pointed out to me years ago by the person that taught me how to build wheels so that is the way I did it. Yes I had to pressure the spokes some to get them to angle towards the rim but I have had to do that on every wheel I have built. Here i...

Did you paint the motor black? Or anodized it some way?

I laced my wheel by feeding the spokes from the outside in. Therefore, all the elbows of the spokes are on the inside.

OK, I got everything laced in, assembled on my bike, and first test ride will start tomorrow. I have completely disabled regen, because I find that I cannot modulate the regen as I would like to on my front wheel. Too much fear of going over the bars.... Will tell you more after the test ride tomorr...

I have had one for about a month but work has also gotten in the way and waiting for a rim to arrive that was the right size. The first one was a 650b and I needed a 700c but it was a gimme so not able to complain. I am getting my spokes together tomorrow hopefully though now that I have them calce...

I got shafted at the border. My order had been waiting a week in customs and now got a lovely $320 au additional duty gst to pay to be released....... should have it next week again! Wow, I feel your pain and had similar experiences importing stuff into Switzerland. I am really happy that my shipme...

Yes, the spoke threader is expensive, but it is still worth it for me. I have laced about 30 wheels now (with and without motor).

I got this Hozan one from Jenson.

OK, so I made a mistake. In my previous post, you can see how I configured the Online Spoke Calculator. I did it wrongly, hence the spokes that I ordered are too short. I only found out while trying to lace the wheel.... This is how I should have done it: https://endless-sphere.com/forums/download/f...

The following have arrived: DT Swiss M480 Disc 27.5inch rim with 32 holes. http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/87kAAOSwhOdXn4FJ/s-l500.jpg Black Spokes 2.0mm http://i.ebayimg.com/images/i/322270805144-0-1/s-l140/p.jpg So, lacing has started.... In addition, just in case we get some nice black ice.... 2x S...

Hi there, Yes, this is exactly what I am doing (front wheel hub + midmotor driving rear wheel through the normal gears). However, the front hub is a DD and not a geared motor. You are around Winterthur, right? When you are in the neighbourhood of Basel, send me a message, and I can show you. build t...

Link to TTL-USB cable.

John Bozi wrote:Is it specific to the phase runner?

No, I also use it to program the CAv3.

Would it work together?

Not sure it is the same.

Hi all, Just wanted to let you know I have one of Justin's Grin Hub Motors on my bench in a test fork, connected to a PhaseRunner, CAv3, and a 50V battery. Next step is building it into my Fox 34 front fork on my Haibike. With my FS Haibike with midmotor (Front Grin Hub is NOT yet built in), I do si...

OK, so this is absolutely rediculous! I read again the PhaseRunner tread. Then it dawned on me to check the Grin site again. I downloaded the new PhaseRunner Software suite, installed it, and 5 minutes later I had a perfectly spinning Grin Hub Motor!! Literally 5 minutes!!! What did I do? First, I s...

OK. Getting the appropriate driver solved the issue. Moving forwards, I need to do the following: Configure the PhaseRunner Configure the CAv3 To configure the PhaseRunner I first need to know the battery characteristics, and the motor characteristics. Battery: this is a 14S high capacity triangle p...

Hi John,

Yep, that is correct. I had the Phaserunner lying around already.

I now have issues with my Win10 laptop not recognizing the USB serial adapter..... meaning that I cannot get BacDoor running to configure the Phaserunner.

Hi all, OK, so all electric components have been connected for the first test. In short: EM3EV battery pack connected to PhaseRunner using 12G HobbyKing wire with 60A-rated 6mm connectors. PhaseRunner using standard Grin connectors attached to CA and to Grin Hub. Throttle connected to CA. Now the te...

Well.... yeah.... I am really extremely busy with work, supporting a new drug to fight advanced breast cancer and bring it to patients as soon as possible. See also here . My team has submitted a big dossier to various health authorities (FDA, EMA, Swissmedic, Health Canada, etc) and we are now in t...
