Endless Sphere

What a beautiful feature / mod / add on I can see this also having applications in other areas where balance is useful

+1 Voltron

Although I thought I was witty all the time

Its very stealth clubserg

It Rips

These dealer oriented companies are so greedy the bikes end up too expensive to make sense and they fail. Losers

Bike rips for a 250w nominal rated curious how many watts is it pushing at full speed and say 3/4 speed ?

a BIG Congratulations happy everyone is safe and the Trip was a success SWEET you guys were IMO in some scary territory

The price of these Chinese bikes has me thinking a bunch of joe blow buys them from china and retail them in North America for 3x the price from cheaply made websites

I had found the max amp setting was accidentally set at 17.6 amp / 900 watts up from the 14.7 amp / 750 watts I thought it was on. Likely it over heated on a hill. The motor cut out is now happening after a short ride on level ground. I suspect the hall wires have overheated causing them to short ou...

Try bending it

That is good info Thanks its something to seriously consider when building. I was thinking about slow speed performance or more so lack of with Hub motors.as trail riding is often slow n steep. As it is Im using a tiny 48v 350w geared front hub motor that can't take the heat/ Amps on slow speed hill...

Im thinking I will get one use it on my bike and carry it when hiking and prospecting as it is i use a return date as a safety catch. With the gps tracker your spouse or friends can watch your progress and know where you are on google maps. That first link you posted gps service costs $250 ca. year ...

Zoomed in the frame is shocking looking

Nice to hear the BBS middrive was a easy to install encouraging for others and good to hear as I will likely switch over to a BBS at some point.

The plot thickens

My thoughts on the first question If your just road riding hub motors make good sense whereas for trail riding geared mid drive motors are pretty much needed. Some choose hub motors for their ease of installation and lack of maintenance while others choose a mid drive with gears for hills and off ro...

The components are a 350w mxus powered via a KT 22A z version controller with lcd5 display on 48v limited to 15A via the controller for the batteries max rating. The problem Lately have been having motor shut offs after riding at slower speeds on grade strange thing is its never happened on the same...

That previous tracker was around $40 on ebay same as the below version. It says the battery is good for a few months in standby not sure how that relates to actual use.. I expect it would drain within a week. The Chinese ad states it has a 3500mah battery its likely 1/2. My idea is hide a small gps ...

If you want wire up a 12v GPS Personally i would use a 5v gps unit

Could solder a 18650 battery to a usb cable to power the RC / Dog tracker for like 30 or more days.

Followed the link there is some nice motorbikes in that collection :) Here is a 8000w (peak?) eMtb for $10,000 i noticed on eBay. Pricey all the same its more bike then the optibike is it still costs too much by about a factor of 2 imo Speed - 120 kph Range - 120km Weight - 46 Kg Warranty:2 years fo...

So you can buy a full fledged street legal Zero ebike that is faster then most anticipate or for more money you can own a pedal eMtb. Thats the point , when you start comparing the performance and parts list the value is apparent. My point is its Grossly overpriced , do you disagree with that or jus...

There is no need to fake pedal when riding a insured ebike , I posted the Zero as a cost comparison not so much a ride comparison

I like it and all but its grossly overpriced I mean check out the Zero bike below its $11,000 and your street legal http://www.zeromotorcycles.com/shop/images/large/zero-ds-2018.jpg A Zero DS with the smaller ZF7.2 battery starts at $10,995 whereas the DSR model with the ZF14.4 power pack starts at ...
