    difficulty engaging cyclone mode 3

    So I tried it again, connecting pink to black with a mostly charged battery, and there was def a difference. I accidentally pulled a wheelie when I started (which had not happened before) and Top speed was up to about 34 mph, previously had topped out at 28. So I'm pleased that it seems to be...

    difficulty engaging cyclone mode 3

    Thanks for the replies. I rode the bike in all the various combinations, not just spinning the wheel in the air, and noticed no change in acceleration or top speed in any position. Ive got a 48v 21 ah battery - it was maybe half discharged at the time - maybe I need to try it again fully...

    difficulty engaging cyclone mode 3

    I have the Luna Cyclone 3000 mid-drive, and have read on the other threads about the 3 power modes, #2 is default, #1 is slower and #3 is faster.

    Thanks for the video, a little hard to see what exactly what he was doing. Was that a paperclip stuck in there?

    new cyclone 3000 w mid-drive kit?

    We will be doing a pretty secure mounting, with longer bolts to a second plate, plus an addition attachment to the downtube. I will show pics. Can you explain again how to engage mode 3 in terms that an electronics novice like myself could understand? - bob

    new cyclone 3000 w mid-drive kit?

    Thanks for the info. So is there a specific reason that the colors do not match up? I assume with the rest of the kit I am supposed to match colors, right? red to red and black to black between the battery and controller? - bob

    new cyclone 3000 w mid-drive kit?

    hey thanks for the feedback on my build with the cyclone and Nirve Streetking. I have not tried to take the BB apart yet, so I'm not sure on the details there. I've got a buddy who is more bike-savy, he will be helping me out. Here's my next issue. I apologize for my noobishness. When I...

    new cyclone 3000 w mid-drive kit?

    Hello Cyclone 3000 fans and gurus. I have purchased the Luna cyclone kit, and am planning to install it on my Nirve Streetking. I have one question for you all: Is there any reason that I can't install it above the frame, instead of its usual position below the frame? Please see the attached...

    glad to find some other locals. Is there any sort of organized club or anything? Does anyone meet up to ride, or work on bikes together, or just shoot the breeze while drinking the beverage of your choice? - bob
