    How good is Cyclone 4kw coaxial suspension bike?

    The new one i ordered had better welds, but i still beefed it up with a bigger fillet weld. Running up to 80 amps is the killer. I have backed it off to 70, its a big difference in agressive acceleration but still just as much fun. I would say 80amps is really pushing it. On a full charge under...

    I have a 3000w kit on another bike. And it is no where near as reliable as the coaxial. I only get about 100 hours before the motors blow. So far i have blown 4 of them at 40 amps. The coaxial leaves it for dust.

    Update after 2.5 years of use. Hi. So after lots of uphill jumping and about 80kms a week and now on second battery, the mechanics and motor are still good. I run @ 80 amp peak, on a steep accent its 80amps for a good few minutes flat out in first. One thing that was starting to fail is the...

    Hi tomm. I glued cells together with liquid nails. Gives me plenty of time to move them around while configuring the pack.sets overnight. Using an 80w iron and pushing in solder quickly. 3 seconds max contact. And cool off with air immediately after each connection. I practiced on some cheap...

    Li ion with bms batteries I have concluded are much like airbags. There's a lot of fear about not having a bms. I think it's more aptly named BS. I've made 4 packs so far. The first pack 160 x 18650 cells. And i was absolutely paranoid about the dangers i read about. The bms was every problem i...

    Enric, there is no curved frame version. The alloy curved frame isn't sold as far as I know. I have one of the first frames it has 10mm drop out. I now have converted to 12mm through axle. The current frame has a 10mm through axle and no drop outs. I have the 60amp controller. You can order the...

    Automatic clutch setup. It is a brake sensor that fires when the upshift level is pulled. This stops the motor for a second but the drivetrain inertia completes the gear change. By the time the motor picks up speed again it is all done.The higher rpm the better it works. See it in action...

    How good is Cyclone 4kw coaxial suspension bike?

    I've done alot of kms on mine so far on trails. Something to watch is the rear derailleur. I was using a 50t rear cassette and a microshift marvo derailleur. After a lot of abuse the derailleur alignment got crooked and because the chain speed is much faster than anyone could pedal. The...

    Ask paco. If you buy a kit. Its chromolly. The CAD drawings are of the chromolly one. I think the alloy ones are their first proto type frames and not sold. I got one of the first kits. The newer one has different rear frame parts with plastic bushings on the pivot plate. And bigger stronger...

    One thing thats needed when buying this kit is the rear hub is 170mm. You will need a 170mm fatbike hub and they are not so cheap for something descent. And youll have to lace the wheel.
