it's not really the point, but I would like to see the stats u base ur statement on

yeah do it! ...with care it can work, keep us posted

hummm… those motors are good (I have them) thanks for sharing the link which top speed are u after ? ur ESC is rated to 6s, those motors are sold to run on 10s, and u plan to buy 3s lipo w. parallel connectors... what about charger? u need a 2wd ESC anyway... u know what ? u reached already the...

I would say it depends on how you work out your transmission ratio so that the speed, acceleration, etc could be the same between belt/hub ( ...interresting brain teaser actually: 1:1 ratio w. same wheels, same kV, same outrunner motor outer diameter) without going through the whole history of...

sorry... I just keyed in "FVT 120A ESC" in a "search engine" and got that : I had difficulty to find the right setting in order to have a smooth and linear brake on my electric skateboard equipped with the FVT 120A ESC. I started using the firmware offered by Banggood but the brake was too...

Oh man... I won't even try to explain that to you... maybe go grab a medicine ball, run and jump in a pool, and trow the ball while you are in the air : get back to us if you landed at the same place than the ball... or you take your electric bicycle hook it in the air and check where the...

hummm... It was "Chambéry" actually. I met them both this morning at Chamonix and this was great! such inspiring persons... tomorrow morning starts the real trip : may the sun shine along your journey as much as your smiles on your faces !

the torque arms are less required on steel frames. to correct the topic title, the first post needs to be edited.

As it is now, stable and going well (damaged the original controller, got a Grinfineon 40A instead, had an unsuccessfull attempt to run on a mid drive kit-twisted free wheel, bought an MXUS 1000W motor and installed an 18s Bluetooth BMS, run mostly around 1000W to 1500W and sometimes up to 2500W...

Welcome on Endless sphere... those bikes are great, you can use them as they are and keep room for long term upgrades, I believe if the " commute 13k to school along trails and road." is without significant climbs, any of the grin technology kit you look at will work fine, do you know which...

right: it was mostly an "opportunity cost" issue, I was not against dropping my bike there for 30min, say 1h at most and get the brakes flushed for 20bucks maybe ? ...so I got my fresh DOT liquid bottle for like 10bucks instead, ...probably 10x the volume required ...and made it myself, ...got...

So... I went to a cycle shop to get my hydraulic brakes flushed and maintained : Has soon has they saw the e-bike, they told me, "we do not service DIY e-bikes for legal reasons" ...was just wondering if it's often like that and if you had a similar experience in your area ?

sorry, maybe I was of topic : my battery is made of 3x16Ah 6s LiPo pack. Tonight I plugged other 3x5Ah 6s LiPo pack and could load to 2kW w.o issues, I think the BMS is OK. EDIT : just saw your post, ElectricGod, I will keep an eye on possible setting conflict and let u know if I can't sort the...

it showed up after a long offroad downhill so I won't be surprised to see mechanical damages... the informations given by the app are all correct in static conditions, only when I apply load (bike suspended and wheel spinning free), I get many protections activated after some attempts...

It is the 18s version of the BMS sold by BMS battery : https://bmsbattery.com/bmspcm/834-smart-bms-10s13s-60a-with-blue-tooth-android-or-ios-app.html
