    Nothing short of tremendous Luke 'ole Boy :!: Nicobe thought the matchup of 2012 could be Thud and Luke. But last night, 6/16/12, I think he missed it. Christophe, seasoned mo-ped builder and racer with roots way over in France, where serious mo-ped racing reinghs supreme, had a go at it...

    Todd, your registration is always 'sponsored' but my pockets aren't so deep. Maybe this fall. Yep, what'd I give to see all the big name racers get together for a real championship run :!: (Dogmanz, PaulD, AGK, Christophe, Todd, Luke, Zombiess, Stevil, Farfle, who did I forget?)

    Cheetos and Corona, my kind of diet. Oh man, Alan, you get such great camera shots. Evo, you and Dave31 should see about riding out for 1 of these. It truly wasn't the same without Luke CrotchRocket, Farfle, and the Hubzilla crowd. Thanks fellow ES'ers for the well wishes. Attendance was a...

    I must seek revenge: Actually, just looking to have a good time. I'm bringing a few pages of 6" sticky back numbers, for my nemesis #200 :!: and anyone else without numbers. I'll be running a "cute 128" at about 1.5K and using Shamano clipless pedals in the heat. Toying with running 2K thru...

    No I haven't Stevil, All sheets were sacked up and handed off to MBR. Actually, I think that's 1 of the changes needed, that more than 1 person should have their hands on results, whether it's me or someone else, not right that 1 person shoulders all aspects of the event. In the future, no...

    Ed, I missed you there! As always I got busy and not as social as I hoped. A classy little 1982? Girelli crashed me and so had to spend too much time trying to affect a repair plus scorekeeping. I think I DQ'ed him later for wearing white socks with dark pants (just kidding, racing was a...

    Farfle, that's a GREAT foto! It took me 30min to just find out who tagged me in the 1st hard left 2nd lap of heat2. Apparently we had a misunderstanding as what the line was, I considered it in close in the mid of the turn, he thought I should of maintained a lower path but came up on him. I...

    Boy, the moped guys led by Chris, have the bar set with Luke and the rest of the e-posse just coming on the scene and pulling up close those moped outlaws. Sorta, review the tomahawk vid and notice his 49cc 2 stroke is cat and mousing in the early laps. He is riding 4' off the apex of turns...

    Until one takes their hopped up e-bike, many times beyond any realistic performance parameter, and puts their design and build execution to the test (race), few can imagine the challenge. The ES gang upped their explosive speed and handling performance with a handful of brillant examples of...

    Bike looks like business, all e-business Dave. I plan to spend Fri nite, 40 degree camping no bigee. Hope to find a 200W 'personal space' desk heater for my tent (nope, the old fashion way, small tent, 2 8hr candles). Noticed 'em at Walmart months ago, but they sell pretty much on a seasonal...

    Deadly Looks; Me an' the Lipos' Gonna Die

    After getting scoring for Grange ready I turned my attention to hall wiring combos. Ahah, noticed a culprit. When I plugged the Halls in, the green wire slipped out of the plastic housing a mm, kinda tricky to notice. When I'd disconnect, the green wire would retract back into the housing and...

    Deadly Looks; Me an' the Lipos' Gonna Die

    Thanks LFP an' John; Meant to study these things but don't get to it till it's a 'must do.' Will unplug CA, follow up on 3 motor phases, I've only tried direct color to color, and the bl : bl switch other 2. Then go into the halls. The 9-cont has the 5 hall colors which match the same 5 with...

    Deadly Looks; Me an' the Lipos' Gonna Die

    Got the proper freewheels and finished up 2 bikes to race Grange this Sat April 7. But. . . my lo-power (2K) racer won't start. The infinineon controller gets pretty warm, and the 9 continent motor lurches a couple of inches when the CA is reset but nada. The CA reads 74.5Volt, right on for...

    Shipping Update - Ordered a Bafang 48v500w but got this

    That's sorta a cross of the BPMI and II. Seems they're using up whatever covers and innards that have laying around. I have a 14 code that runs just like an 8 code, go figure. Aside from coler and the cover having a slightly larger flange above the spoke holes and not having screws to open it...

    That wheel sparkles and looks tough. Most all the fast rigs coming out are sleek low 20" wheel types. For the e-bikes, someone needs to win this Infineon controller: MagRider's build looks as a serious contender should. I've not seen an 11hp water cooled Morini take 1st, but seems like it...

    Bafang BPM II

    Interesting, wonder if I should hang on to the motor. DHL is dropping it back off. I loved my BPM I. Yeah, made a tool for the Baby BaFang that worked. Maybe I'll crack the BPMII open when it returns to me Friday. If the gears are composite, I'll clomb on to it. Otherwise my VISA will give...

    Bafang BPM II

    Yes, I heard the same. I sorta remember a 'You Tube' that showed V1, V2, and V3 of the BMC (not BMS). V1 stated that the freewheel or clutch sorta dragged. V2 was to correct that but the brazing on the clutch would come undone. At last V3 skipped a clip washer to make room for the slightly...
