Thanks for the tip. I will try to get the printer better tuned so that I can print it in PETG. I also see that PLA degrades when exposed to rapid changing temperatures, so printing in PETG will be a priority.

Thanks. I printed it in PLA. My only possible concern is temperature. Pulling 30Amps from the battery in the summertime, the temperature might be a problem as PLA turn soft at about 80-100Celsius, but I think it will be ok. If this turns out to be a problem, Ill just print it again in PETG. Used...

Got around to mounting the battery box today. I used one of the original rivnuts for the bottle bracket and added two more into the frame. Next I secured it to the frame using a flat aluminium bar with three countersunk bolts. There is also a hole in the top of the casing for a strap or zip tie...

Got it pieced together. Pretty pleased with it so far. Still waiting for the 0.2x8mm nickel strips from ebay to complete it. Really hope they dont turn out to be nickel plated steel. Also bought this BMS: https://www.ebay.com/itm/254484111612 Anyone has any experiences with theese? I know the...

To run BBHD at around 1000W I decided to go for a 13S5P configuration using salvaged LG MH1 3200mAh cells. This would give me an OK capasity of around 15Ah. The cells are also rated for 10A max, therefore they should easily handle the 20-30 Amps the controller would pull at 48V. The first...

I have always wanted a full suspension ebike. Looking at the prices here in Norway I soon decided to build one myself. Started off with buying this used Trek EX9 2010 model. I was thinking this would be easy. I soon discovered that this bike not was the easiest converting with the small...
