    3 of the eelectrico 10.5ah 48v ncr18650ga packs

    traded for these in the fall and i have 3 left. rather than have them kicking around i figured i would sell them as they are great packs for the money. I will take pics tomorrow, my daughter was up all night with a cold so I'm on like two hours sleep. Some of you are familiar with these, they...

    Myths about tires (part 1)

    Back in like 2010 I did a ton of road riding on a 26 inch mountain bike with ritchey speedmax beta semi slicks. Not the kind that are mostly slick with a little bit of channeling for water but the type with knobby outside And a sort of diamond pattern in the middle. They were 26 x 2.2 so pretty...

    Programming Ebikeling 750w Geared hub. Cannot find gear reduction ratio value.

    iirc it was 5:1 but could be a different model/long ago. try setting to 80

    Ride1up Core-5 brake upgrade to 203mm adapter help

    i always use the concave/convex spacers that come with linear pull (v brake) pads, they work really well for this purpose. Then again i have hundreds of them kicking around bc i am a bike mechanic and hoarder by trade

    Is there a "best" cheapo ebike build kit?

    OK cool, thanks for clarifying there. Looks like I may be better off with the larger version of the motor since I would end up doing the work anyway. Actually I was just looking and I may be better off drop shipping the motors to JBI And Having them lace The wheels for my fleet bikes As the cost...

    Is there a "best" cheapo ebike build kit?

    That wheel you posted with the roller brake mount is interesting. Looks like the rim has good potential for braking but won't it be all sorts of odd because of the spacing for the roller brake? trying to figure out how it would center in the forks or if i would have to dish it almost like a rear...

    Before I connect these batteries in parallel…

    Literally did the same exact thing a while back after asking the same question, I generally tried to separate them for charging but it's been quite a few times I didn't remember or just plugged one battery in to charge up a little bit And forgot and they both ended up charging, One through the...

    These 250W ebikes (toys) are very popular

    Better yet, I'll just wrap the hub with a zillion turns of duct tape for the tire. That way when something in the field breaks she can just rip off a little piece to fix it.

    Ruined $150 Shimano Deore hydraulic brakes

    Crazy thought but are you using the wrong brake fluid or fluid that is contaminated? I just lock up my brakes everywhere because it's more gratifying to buy new tires than pads EDIT: "scientifically speaking, braking is converting fun into heat" -Seth's bike hacks

    These 250W ebikes (toys) are very popular

    Lmfao! Didn't even know what to expect when I clicked the link. I guess I'll definitely be breaking the law when it gets an MXUS 3k. Need to find a tire small enough to mount Directly onto the hub motor using it like a rim And spoke holes for the beadlocks

    What can a Grin controller + cycle analyst do that KT controllers + KT display can't do?

    One thing that annoys me with my KT bikes is the lag or delay on throttle. Haven't flashed any with OSF so I'm not sure if there is a way to get rid of that, But I hate when I am getting on the throttle coming out of a turn and it just does nothing for a half a second. Then again, I've heard a...

    New Free Bike Build - Specialized Ground Control w/ Mercalli forks

    Good score- late 90s like 97-2000 rockhopper fsr i think Those cranks look like they are older than the bike, like early 90s deore or deore dx or something pivots could probably use a little bit of refreshing but you can get all the bearings for like 15 bucks

    Converting fleet of citibike style share bikes- front hub vs bbs01

    Thank you for the input everybody. It seems like the overwhelming consensus here is front hub, I just looked at a photo of the bikes and realized that since they have chain guards that run the length of the chain stay adopting mid drive wouldn't be an ideal solution anyway. Not to mention the...

    Converting fleet of citibike style share bikes- front hub vs bbs01

    I had an owner of a local business that does app based bike sharing contact me- he was considering converting some to electric. Terrain is mainly flat, there are a couple areas nearby with mild hills that 350w should be plenty for and he was clear that he wants to limit the top speed assist to...

    LIQUIDATION SALE! UNUSED 48V 10.5Ah 30A battery pack - $65

    Yeah, this is a legit seller with quality products and good prices. I can vouch for them for certain. In both my cases shipping was reasonably quick And shipping price was definitely super fair. Understand that there are a few sellers on ebay that actually have the same batteries Presumably...

    New Enduro/clone build

    I may have missed it somewhere but what frame is that? I was eying the voilamart stealth clones for a winter project but this seems much nicer. Did the seat come with it? most of the steath clones i see have a regular seat which would be a deal breaker for me

    Just more than a bike (low power / low consumption)

    Going against the grain here with my Just more than a bike being mid drive, but i was a huge fan of the TSDZ2 for that purpose. It did more with less power than pretty much anything else i have used. If i put in a brisk walking level of effort (100-13x watts) 9 watts per mile got me in the...

    new cyclone 3000 w mid-drive kit?

    Yeah and I'm still kind of groggy because kids kept waking me up so I must be out of it anyway. I just though about it. I'm not going for a super top speed build and the motor really wouldn't be spinning any faster than most guys doing 45+ on a 26er As I'm just trying to do 40 max for short...
