I've got the 180mm (edited that in my previous post) on the front and I'm about to place a 160mm disk brake on the rearwheel. I think that should be sufficient...

Another day in the garage made me ducktape the pieces together and finally ride the bike (first time with proper brake). I think some of the ducktapers around here would be proud of me :) Besides ducktaping I've been working on the following: -Installed new headset to accomidate the new front...

I'm also waiting for the video... :P

Well there are several reasons why I took off the pedals: 1. I wanted to make the bike full electric without pedal assistance. It's becoming sort of an electric scooter instead of an e-bike. 2. I'm not a gear guy, so taking of the pedals would be much easier for me. 3. I live in the Netherlands...

Finally some time to work on the e-cruiser again :D . The goal for this day was to eliminate the steel plate, shape the mold and make a first attempt with epoxy. Here is the bike with the steel "Nirve" plate: After attacking the frame with the grinder it looked like this: and: The idea...

Thanks for explaining. First I'm going to make homegrown torque-arms as well, but probably will put them on the outside of the frame.

Thud, that bike looks awesome. Did you document the build?

Good luck with the build. Looking forward to the result!

Thanks. Do you have any pictures for this procedure?

I'm about to (re)start the project again. I've a new suspension fork with a brake disk and I've been working on a battery tank that's hopefully going to look quite awesome. I'll try to post some new photo's within the next few weeks!

Nice, I would like to see how it looks from the inside :)

I'm currently drawing my custom torque arms for both sides. I've a steel frame, so for now I'm good. I'll try to place the washers on the inside next time I'll have to remove the wheel. The axle is not suited for every day pit-stops...

The wheel has been trued by the local bike shop. I think the flight from Canada to Europe was quite bumpy, since the bikeshop found out that there is a slight bump in the rim, so it will never be fully trued. After placing the wheel in the frame for the 2nd time I centered the wheel by...

Yesyes, got my first ride on the bike yesterday, although the bike is far from finished. First impressions are great. I was unable tot do a lot of testing since my single side calliper brake is not braking at all. I'll hope to find a front suspension fork with disc brake soon!

No more Euro's in here :?:
