See attached mate its 10 speed with clutch derailer but because of alignment I only use 7 speed.

Iam using single speed with couple of spacers. It have quite a bit of angle to it but I haven't have a problem with chain falling off. Iam able to peddle up to about 37mph no problem but a little bit of noise.

Wow kiwi! 7 speed. Which derailleur are you using? Looks like an mxus in the back as well. That's my exact setup!

No alignment problems? I have a single speed with an mxus 3000, going to a 36T chain ring, and the alignment isn't that great.

Hi kiwiev, could you please tell me the size of one Vector Sidcover? I would like to calculate something with it. Thank you really much.

We are preparing some nice features to Vector frame owners, we want to make custom wide swingarm for making e-fatbike with wide rear wheel. What do you think guys? Also we will offer a headset for cone shaped forks, for those who preffer single krown forks for small turn radius.

@Artur: I have found a german article about future motorcycles which have to have ABS in 2017. Maybe it could be interesting for you:

Artur,
That sounds neat. Maybe you can almost make some custom side-covers (the small ones) out of aluminum complete with charging ports and off/on switch. I find that my dual crown suspension tends to dent those panels in.

Max meant "truing" stand, which it is.
Macribs, how wide are those rims? I was thinking of running the Shinko 18-3.5 on rear with a 1.85 rim and a 19-3.5 on a front 1.6 rim. So the Shinko web site says the 3.5 tire should be used with a 2.15 rim. So how whacked out would this be? I'd like to do the big tire thing but the rims are hard to come by for hub motors....or at least I struggled to find one.

We have great news! Now we can obtain bank transfers inside the countries you live in (the countries are marked on the pictures), that means that you won't have to send your money abroad. For example, if you live in USA, you can send the money to USA bank address, if you live in Australia to Australian bank address.

Not sure on the width of those rims, on the cell now. Will check back during the weekend. You might wanna check in with Rix in the tire and wheel thread. I am sure he can assist as he has tried many variations, widths, rims etc.

Artur. Cool. Both the new V shaped fork and I love the new shocks. I will take a a rear shock 850 lbs. I just need to count me cash first

It's the silver piece on the bottom right. That's the regular Manitou one. I need one that's 82 mm across by the two wider bolt holes (the outer edge of the 'C').

Bike's coming together now. Once I get this brake sorted, I'll start wiring it up.
Here's a pic of it. Managed to get the chain quite nicely lined up with the single speed in the back. I should add a seat too.
Came out of work to check it out and I found the bike shop added a different front brake, which shows in the pic, which I asked them to remove.

I think they're 203mm. I think I found it here. It's the A7. I think I have the A10, which has the bolts going through the side. I think the bolts on the fork side of the adapter are have a 28mm spread between them.
