My limited understanding was if the controller is asking 40A from a battery pack made of 18650-25R (2.5Ah, 20A-max) with no BMS (or a BMS that is 45A or 50A, meaning the BMS factor is irrelevant in this case study) then a pack made of 10S2P is 36V-nom (42V-max) 5Ah 40A-max you are pulling 20A from e...

Your motor must have been built on a Friday near closing time. Is the added pcb board new or have they been doing that for awhile? I literally can not remember if mine had a pcb board, but I think I would have remember if it did. I use an unsensored controller so I only use phase wires and just tuck...

I have 14S 52V Grintech 14.5Ah hard case with 40A that I bought with a Satiator thats charged to 56V at low amps when I get home then 58.80V charged at high amps before I leave the next day. I also have 10S 36V Ryobi battery thats only ever charged to 40.40V not 42V. I use both batteries when I ride...

I am in no rush for the cross over to the new format as I am set in my ways, its just human nature but I will learn like everything in life. I am curious as to when the switch might happen? Thanks for putting in so much work for a time consuming task, I am not so much computer oriented when it comes...

OK, but even the RH spoke flange is not uniform not like traditional hub motor designs for the flanges. Whats the affect of saving that kind of weight on the rotational assembly without jeopardizing hub motor strength where its crucial at the spoke flange. I'm sure its been tested and is more then a...

These two posts, in response to one another was funny, a smart wit of minds, very rare these days. Its in order of sequence. Clever-ish use of 80/20 aluminum sections. It looks like your frame geometry is good as long as nothing slips under load. Thanks-ish. In Full context Clever-ish use of 80/20 a...

Not to mention 27H vs 35H, better heat dissipation, not sure if the Grintech's motor is more efficient then Leafs. The Leafs 35H is better heat dissipation apple-to-apple, meaning if both using FF but its not really an apples to apples comparison for the different physical size, more metal, more sur...

Don't worry so much about the dropouts, they handled my hub motor, 2kw just fine with mxus 3kw (heavy heavy heavy motor) However I wasn't doing jumps or getting air, just the occasional curb action is all. Its the holes in the frame for the cable routing you have to be concerned about. My blue Towni...

I dig the build, but 72V 65A on a MY1020 motor, a quick google on my part comes up with 500W for that motor, but yours is a Vevor MY1020 so different then https://www.electricscooterparts.com/motors-my1020.html which are Unite. I also never seen v-brakes on any wide rim, but you cant beat the $40 pr...

Whats your thoughts on Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (N.A.D.) ? https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-1016/nadh edit - After reading Nep's response I had no clue it was related to Nicotine, a little back story - I was listening to Tim Pool as a guest talking about his Keto experience ...

ActuallyHardcoreOverclocking https://www.youtube.com/c/ActuallyHardcoreOverclocking Is pretty good and what I go to for mobo's and ram info. I haven't found anything else but I haven't looked either because I am not looking for a new computer. Every now and then I just like to surf and see whats out...

I ran into a beer 12 x seat bicycle thing in a neighborhood next to the down core, where the rich folk live and the yuppies live and hangout in Inglewood (unlike Cali's) It was a real loud annoyance and it blocked traffic, seen it 2 times. Last was at a keto cafe and it really pissed me off. I get w...

A horn is a great idea, maybe have two or three modes. Normal noise level, and more and more noise level ;) I have a handlebar bell and I make noise (whistling sometimes) The fat bike made a lot more noise with its 26x4 tires then my 26x2 and 700x45 setup does. I notice a difference with road noise ...

Always best to measure the rim yourself. Chain Reaction has a size down to 182, 184, 186, 188, 192 on up if that meets your requirements. https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/spokes I've played around trying to find the right ERD of a rim to fit those sizes and playing around with the spoke calc to g...

What are your thoughts on those people who ride their ebikes with radio or music just loud enough, not blastingly loud? The other aspect is about lights, crazy light shows, modest light shows or subtlety led colors or very traditional lights. Flashing or solid, blinding lights or what. I ran across ...

Some specifications on rim websites can be wrong, I remember emailing Grin about a rim website I found for a rim with a differing ERD listing, but Grintech actually measures theirs so I trusted them and ordered spokes for Grintechs ERD #. It could have been the same rim with an outright lie on the r...

Get a thermistor installed in the hub motor and have a controller that can read it and save your motor. I should have done that with my mxus 45H 3kw hub motor, and it would have been saved from melting. That hub motor was heavy a.f. and I never used it to its potential, I actually used it quite unde...

Exactly :thumb: So what speeds are you riding and is it always on the road in the middle of the right lane or riding the curb in the right lane or you rocking the middle lanes when not about to turn? All your ebikes are bicycles right? Not enduro/stealth suitcase frames. I can't remember :oops: I th...

Front hubs dont have the load ...... unless you have a cargo bike with a heavy load in the front. On a regular bike, 380lbs of human plus ebike stuff, rear hub I had lots of problems. Problem after problem Same setup with 135mm rear hub but now front hub (literally the same laced hub on a fat bike f...

MicroSHIFT Acolyte - I'm done going in half ass, time to go with having good components, at a good value, set up the right way and doing things right and the Acolyte seems to be a solid choice. When I was looking for components for the gearing I want on my ebike, the Mezzo and R8 came up a lot, for ...

Last Edited (Friday, November 26, 2021) with remarks added to the end of the post and I cleaned up the original post. Looking about for one of my random single geared freewheels and still havent found it. I have about 3 or 4, maybe even 5 large tote boxes of stuff, some neatly organized with totes i...

Figuring out proper gearing for my ebike for my preferred cadence I have no clue what my riding speeds are but my 48-14 gearing seems to be close for my cadence (no clue but guessing its 65-70rpm) and cruising speed I like to ride, literally no clue on the actual speed I like to cruise at. 301 gear...

Sounds like the roadie has a limited perspective. In his mind, everything is a competition :roll: Who cares, I probably passed him a few times (without pedaling) in the past is what I am thinking. But that fella was a fast lycra roadie cyclist who I believe was wearing shorts on a day that was cool...

I was called a cheater by a passing roadie today, first time in a long long time. I was just at a casual cruising speed lazy pedaling along. Funny thing is, the guy that said that probably drives a vehicle, so if that be the case that roadie is a hypocrite, whereas me I ride every single day for eve...
