    Thanks Tom! It was programmed running 66V and 65A battery and 100A phase at that second test (first test were stock values 45A battery and 90A phase), I don't have the cycle analyst yet so I don't know how much it was in real life. Gear ratio is 12t front 77t rear.

    Welcome to the club jateureka :D Stinky seems to be kinda popular on these mid-drive builds I see and no wonder, it's a great bike after all. I'm still waiting for goods to arrive, it's kinda frustrating... I've ordered the motor three weeks ago, the rear hub has been on it's way since 28.10...

    Kona Stinky pedalless GNG Big block

    That is Exactly how I used to think! :D But when I talked to lightningrods about this, everything changed... At first when we are doubling the armature speed we can't say it's easy on the motor especially when we want big torque of it aswell, other way there's no point of using big motor. I...

    Thank You Stevil_Knevil for making that even possible to me! It's going to be so much fun when I get to the tinkering phase! :P Thanks for the comments crossbreak! That exal rim looks kinda light and thin though, are you sure it's going to get trough all the abuse at the trail? The Stinky has...

    Yep that front hub looks like I wouldn't count on that at the rear end, especially on a dh-bike... That Holmes guy looks like he knows what he does! :D First principles product is really interesting, still I don't know can it be trusted when twisting it with 100nm, but the weird thing is that...

    What the... :shock: Thanks for that!!! I've googled that kind of hubs everywhere and guess what, I didn't find any :D and then someone sells them HERE! :roll: Btw here's what the mailman delivered today :P

    Hey crossbreak! Thanks for the info! True that it's not the power but the torque what actually breaks things, your explanation really cleared things up and apparently these freewheels aren't such crap after all! :D But the second problem, which I didn't write about earlier, is a very big lag at...

    Kona Stinky pedalless GNG Big block

    Looks good, bit expensive though.. question popped to my mind that does the freewheel actually hold up over 4kw power? :? I've read that someone broke his freewheel here at the ES and what I know is that there are only couple of pins transmitting the energy to the hub, so maybe I should use a...

    No unfortunately LightningRods hasn't got a laser tachometer to test it out so I don't have any clue of kv, I'm just hoping that it would be near to the gng motor :|

    Kona Stinky pedalless GNG Big block

    Thanks Litespeed :) DanGT86 your right about those dual pivot frames, I'm glad this isn't one of them. :D I began to think it won't work without tensioner, because the pivot is so far away from the front sprocket. Now I've ended up with an idea of putting a roller at the saddle tube to raise the...

    Kona Stinky pedalless GNG Big block

    Hi DanGT86, thanks for the info, I probably go with Lyen controller if I don't come a cross something from europe which I doubt. I checked the geometry of my Stinky yesterday night and the rear forks pivot is located just above bb and the fork is pointing downwards so distance between bb and...

    Kona Stinky pedalless GNG Big block

    Hi Avner! Thanks for your comment. If that's the case, I really need that tensioner. I have to admit I thought the geometry on downhill bicycles were similar to motocross bikes so I didn't check that. I just assumed the chain would tighten as the suspension compressess. :D Btw do you know a...

    Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum so I should introduce myself. I'm a 24-year old guy from Finland who got really excited about E-bikes a few months ago. Since then I've read alot of this forum and decided to start my own build thread. My experience with bicycles isn't too great, I know the...
