    Sources for positive yet truthful news?

    Yeah, reddit has its problems. Too many sheltered millenials raised with the unrealistic 'safe space' bs. But, at least there is something on there to this effect: https://old.reddit.com/r/UpliftingNews/ Guaranteed an endless supply!

    Most reliable Mid drive motor kit?

    Hmm, maybe look into the AFT cyclone 3000 kit? They do a rather extensive rebuild, and redesign of just about everything. It's $$$$$ , but known for its high mileage abilities. They get away from the grease, in exchange for a super lightweight 0w oil with a very high molybdenum content, to help...

    That's my channel! I'm tarkuk on youtube. See the 4d shape projections, filming of hurricanes and car racing vids? All me, my dude.

    Need a bombproof rear-hub that can handle 2500 watts

    These are freehubs of all kinds. the DT swiss design : the parts labeled at #2 are what we are referring to Though, I wonder how well the shimano silent clutch design handles ebike power? They come on any police bike, which are all around built to be more heavy duty than the standard mtb.

    Do you have or plan to start an ebike business?

    I live in Orlando, which is notoriously bad for cyclists, but it's coming around. It will be much better 10 years from now, with all of the bike lane extension plans that are in the works. Having possibly the worst reputation in the nation might have something to do with it! Ebikes are up and...

    If you could do something entrepreneurial in the EV industry,what would you do?

    I would like to design and build an IGH 3,4, and/or 5 speed that can handle 5-7 kw. In addition to that, I think some kind of oversized, overbuilt version of the BBSHD that has external grease ports, hardened helical cut gears, and external programmable controller would be the bomb, that retains...

    Were you a bicycle person before you got into E-bikes??

    I am a fit cyclist who discovered ebikes 3 years ago. I started by commuting on my 40lb mtb in Redmond, WA, by riding to RHS which was only 1.2 miles away, back in 1998. After school, I would take off on a 30 mile adventure, just about every day, regardless of weather. Fast forward to 2003, I...

    Huffy Mayhem | Cyclone 3000 | 14s 30a

    I'm not the kinda guy who buys a huffy walmart bike. I am, however willing to accept one when it's given to me for free, in reasonable condition. Then of course, turn it around and build a fully functional beach ebike! Since the salt will take it eventually, I won't care, due to the minimal...

    GNG / CYC X1 Pro 3000w

    Wow, I like the new kit in all black, with the torque sensing bb. I run my bike in motorcycle mode the whole time at the moment. The gear sensor adaptation is what I need for realistic PAS riding, but I'd prefer the torque sensor over that any day. I can't stop pedaling to change gears (to trip...

    Need a bombproof rear-hub that can handle 2500 watts

    I second the DT Swiss freehub body design. It has an axial ratchet system, that provides more surface area and engagement than most others on the market. They are very easy to disassemble and rebuild, since it's only 2 springs plus two of the ratchet rings, minus the splined cassette body. Only...

    Raleigh Redux | X1 Pro | 14s7p 35E

    It's a 32T , with the 11/53T secondary reduction 219 rings. I need a narrow-wide for this thing, which is something CYC should be selling with their kit. It holds the chain better. I also have the 12/72T 219 ring set that comes with a 42T chainring. That will be my next mod, to see what the...

    Raleigh Redux | X1 Pro | 14s7p 35E

    Yet another x1 pro conversion. The Abomination was never going to be comfy enough for me to ride realistically, and I never got around to taking a video. So, I tore it off and slapped the kit on the redux. This bike once had the cyclone 3000 with barely 1000w. Top speed so far is 48 mph, on...

    Will the bbshd fit on this bike?

    Carbon frames with an aluminum bb shell might not fit. I wasn't able to slide one on my Scott CR1, just 5mm too thick. BBSHD is almost a guarantee if the shell is as close to a standard metal frame as possible (thin!). If you can post close-up pics of the shell, pref the left side, we might be...

    My New EM3ev 52V 17.5ah Battery

    Your EM3ev battery will very likely come with a MALE XT-90 , so your charger will need to be the FEMALE XT-90

    Safe charging battery on the bike?

    It is not recommended to charge while sleeping. It sounds like you are trying to alert yourself if there is a fire. But, keep in mind that this is a fire you cannot extinguish. you can only smother it with stone dust, to the point where it smokes, but it's still 'on fire'. So, if the alarm...

    OK, who rides a recumbent???

    Yeah, most definitely: I have a stock bbshd run by a 14s7p rectangle pack of 35E cells, good for 1kwh at the most. At about 27-30mph cruising for 80% of the ride, I will get close to 60 miles on that 1 kwh. On a full charge after sag, so like 55v 30a (~1300w to the wheel), I can hit 40mph on...

    Scott CR1 | X1 Pro | 14s 45a

    The x1 pro display is for the left side of the handlebar, so this position is correct. It's actually in a bad place for my hands, and should be moved to the stem, as well as the throttle (which I also have changed since then).

    Bacchetta Giro | BBSHD | 14s7p 35E | 500w PAS

    Lol, it's definitely a funky looking cross over, but looks very ergo. Another thing I noticed is arm position. You'd think you want the handlebars close, but you really need lots of arm extension. The highracer puts your back and neck in a super relaxed position, but your legs and arms are held...

    Bacchetta Giro | BBSHD | 14s7p 35E | 500w PAS

    It has a pretty stout steel frame, with decent dropouts. As long as it's a smooth straightaway, it's very stable at 40. The stability is worse at lower speeds anyways. Right around 30 is where you feel the flying sensation. You can carve some tight corners at 30mph, but better be no bumps. I...

    Lightweight efficiency oriented BikeE conversion

    Yes, it's this thing : https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=99397&p=1464529#p1455391 It is fairly top-heavy, especially front-top, because of the bbshd. The low battery made it better, but it still has the offset. This is very noticeable in tight slow speed corners, like a...

    Scott CR1 | X1 Pro | 14s 45a

    Hell yeah my dude. It sure beats a ton of zip ties that you can't get tight enough, or reuse again. I wish I could find an even smaller version, so I don't have such enormous and super sharp ratchets by my legs, lol. Scooting them down actually clears everything, and they have kept it in place...

    Lightweight efficiency oriented BikeE conversion

    From my frightening experiences in searching for the right weight balance on a recumbent, it was battery right below the seat that seemed to work best. To far forward or back, and it's really sketchy in bumpy and/or tight corners. That's what worked on my Bacchetta, but a long wheelbase may have...

    GNG / CYC X1 Pro 3000w

    even after grinding down those splines you refer to (since I thought they were too long) , the sensor still was too thick. It's the whole body that's the problem. But, at the same time, it could be a minor difference in the bb shell on my bike. I haven't mic'ed it, but that could be the culprit...

    GNG / CYC X1 Pro 3000w

    Here's something fun : A 2500w carbon road bike. https://www.endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=101776#p1488043 A few things I found while installing the kit: 1. The left bb cup is too short to thread into the bb shell. It needs to be literally twice as long to have the...
