100 W
Hi Guys,
Just mounted my HS3540 on the rear fork and connected it with Lyen's 6FET controller and 36v 20ah Ping battery. Since I only intend to use max 750W, I thought i didnt use the arms..
Well, turns out I was wrong. This is what happened:
I was ready for a test drive, so I twisted the throttle a little bit to push the bike through the garage. Then the bike stopped all of a sudden, I saw that the V-brakes were blocking. The wheel was almost twisted 30 degrees in the dropout. Cause: Forgot to tighten the bolts
Now, the gap is bigger in the drop out (I think the right term is dropout, correct me if I'm wrong)
Now I am in doubt what I should do. Is it save enough to mount a torque arm in this stage? Because the gap of the dropout is slightly looser, the the axle move (a bit) freely?
Thanks for your help!!
Johan
