    Beagle, you dont need to paint it!!!!!!!!!!! Aluminum oxidises very quickly, which means it naturally provides its own protective paint. If you wanted it to remain shiny, which you don't, then you could apply a epoxy clear coat.

    Got Sprocket Today I got this 80T sprocket for #35 chain in the mail today. It's clearly made to be put on a tank. It weighs almost 3lbs! (2lbs 14oz.) I'll be damned if I going to go to all this trouble to make a light bike, then have to put a 3lb sprocket on it. I'm going to drill a million...

    Hey Beagle, Your plastic battery packs sound great. I am just wondering why you are going to use aluminum. Wouldn't copper strips be a better choice. I am wondering over time, that the aluminum might oxidize, and not make a good contact, which may get those batteries out of balance.

    Re; reading those last 2 posts It reminds me of a autobiography I read about Warren Buffet. He still has a paper route. Of course he doesn't need the money, being one of the richest man in the world. It is while delivering his papers, that he achieves some sort of deep thought. Must be some...

    Drat! Got My First Flat

    Curiously, I have had my flats, with maximum psi, usually after I pumped up the tire. I should point out though that I use to always pump up the tires to maxium psi to decrease rolling resistance. Now I run the ebike at lower psi for a softer ride. I have not had a flat for a while...

    gf was commenting on expanding midriff. As were my so called friends in front of gf. This could be some sort of conspiracy propelled by big oil to dispose of ebike.

    Back vs front for Hubmotor mounting

    I have the 406, front wheel. With the batteries in the back. If i were to do it over again i would go with a rear wheel, and the batteries in a frame bag. I went with the front wheel, because of the weight distribution but I think an xster set up isolves the distribution problem., If the front...

    You guys are too funny. GF is always full of surprises, My attitude is if the women in my life are not happy, then I am not happy. I keep a copious amount of Bordeaux wine on hand, to dull my logical ways, after a couple of glasses, nothing really matters. O.K. just got back from radio shack...

    Eric's Project #002

    Hey Beagle, Aluminum oxides over time and gives a dull silvery finish, look at sailboat masts. If you want it to remain shiny, I am pretty sure, that you could spray a clear coat epoxy on it. Epoxy is a very durable finish.

    Motor not working/ dunno what happened

    Hi Fetcher, was just reading your excellent sticky on clyte controllers. Yeah one of the capaciters is blown, and there is coffee coloured stuff all over the board, that came out of the blown capacitor. everything else looks ok, ie, nothing burnt or showing signs of heat. It looks as though the...

    Motor not working/ dunno what happened

    I took off the controller, appears to be moisture inside. One of the ( ok excuse me I have very limited knowledge on electronics ) capacitors is oozing a coffee colored substance. The description is sl 36 m RA 105 c The7, yes I have the newer one with the bigger caps, the third one is the one...

    Motor not working/ dunno what happened

    It seems one of the connectors experienced some heat, the middle one that connects to the motor. There are three, blue , yellow, and green. The green one looks a little bit damaged from heat. I wont know anything till i get a volt meter. G.F. just came over, and i am trying to get a ride from...
