    Dyno Glide - Bixby - Cruiser Cafe Racer Builds

    Looks like its coming along nicely. Are you concerned about only mounting to one face of the motor? I am a little paranoid about mine torqueing or spinning the can on the endplates if only mounted on one side. I like that your mount doesn't risk running a bolt into the internal fan like a...

    Dyno Glide - Bixby - Cruiser Cafe Racer Builds

    Only dual disk front fork I remember seeing is from the greyborg site. http://greyborgusa.com/dnm-dual-disc-brake-fork/ May be possible to make a caliper bracket that clamps on the shock tube and also catches the axle bolt. Basically a torque arm but with a brake caliper hanging off of it...

    Dyno Glide - Bixby - Cruiser Cafe Racer Builds

    Subscribed! Looks like a cool build. I just started my TransMagnetics build recently and was hoping to see more of them around here. I came up with a similar plan to yours where the first reduction stage ends right behind the bottom bracket area. I picked up a Lyen 12 fet controller with...

    Strong freewheeling crankset

    I just noticed Rouckie was asking about dimensions on the White Ind freewheel. I just finished drawing this for my own records and thought it may be relevant here.

    Looks like a giant sprocket adapter doesn't it?

    Crazy right? Its for the food industry so the material was pretty expensive to begin with. It started life as a piece of 304 stainless steel that was 15" dia and 2" thick. The machine that it goes on seals the lids on food cans at 20k-30k cans per hour. The tolerances were very tight and it had...

    Looks like a giant sprocket adapter doesn't it?

    So I made this thing at work today and it reminds me of a disk brake sprocket adapter like the ones used on non hub bikes to mount sprockets to the ISO brake rotor flange. Its about 14" diameter and 304 stainless steel. Figured that ES members always like looking at machined parts and I thought...

    #219 Chain Front Sprocket Suppliers?

    I have been doing a lot of shopping for 219 sprockets and happened upon a source for tooth counts from 13-24 teeth. They are the first 12 sprockets listed at the following link. http://buller.net/cat--Sprockets-Misc-Bully-Items--bully_misc.html As far as I can tell they all have a 1-1/8" bore...

    Kona Stinky pedalless GNG Big block

    I was pretty excited when I saw those wheels/hubs for sale. There are dual disk flange front hubs for sale at http://www.choppersus.com/store/product/874/Front-Hub-Dual-Disc-CP/ They don't look very strong to me and they are front only so 100mm wide. John R. Holmes is a member on here and has...

    Kona Stinky pedalless GNG Big block

    There are hubs available with a disk brake flange on both sides. This could be a solution. Run a sprocket adapter on one side and a brake rotor on the other. Here are some wheels for sale with a hub like that. Sounds like the hub is narrower than standard but spacers may cure that. Nice looking...

    Kona Stinky pedalless GNG Big block

    For the adapter you need something like this to bolt your 219 sprocket to. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/New-SLX-CS-HG81-10-HG81-10-HG81-10-speed-bike-bicycle-freewheel-flywheel-Round-tower/904240835.html Page 2 of this thread has some sprocket adapter options...

    Kona Stinky pedalless GNG Big block

    The way you have it drawn was my original plan as well. I just thought of a possible way to check it. Shorten a bike chain to wrap around the current drive gears of the bike without the derailleur tensioner. Then cycle the suspension and see how much slack/tension it creates in the chain. It...

    Kona Stinky pedalless GNG Big block

    I just bought one of those Lyen 12 fet controllers for a similar 5kw mid drive build. He even upgraded the traces and installed an additional shunt for higher current. He charged less for the upgrades than I would have paid for soldering supplies. I don't know how much the taxes would be but its...

    Transmagnetics 5 / 5.25 inch 3kW motor info +reduction ideas

    That's all good news. The idea of making new ends was to avoid additional thickness of mounting brackets on both sides. I do prefer supporting it from both ends to keep it from being pulled out of square with the driveline. The spiral intake ports make that cover pretty wide without being thick...

    Transmagnetics 5 / 5.25 inch 3kW motor info +reduction ideas

    I just bought one of these to build my first mid-drive setup. I have been brainstorming my approach to mounting and gear reduction and was hoping to get some feedback from you more experienced motor folks. Anybody see a reason why a clamp style mount in the center of the can would be a problem...

    The F3: "N minus one"

    Im not sure I follow the gear change numbers. Shouldn't the gear change you made increase your top speed? Thanks for documenting your builds so well. They have been a big help in my own build planning.

    Problems with Turnigy Accucell 8150 - goes over voltage

    Did you ever get this issue figured out? I am currently fighting the exact same problem with my accucell 8. For the time being I have used it to charge each cell one at a time and then when they are done I put it in balance mode at under 1 amp and it finishes the balance pretty well. It...
