    Breaking Spokes

    I have a rear MAC 6T motor and recently I started breaking spokes. Driving it with a 36V Ping battery, it wasn't due to torque but actually happened twice when braking down a hill (caliper brakes not disc). All 3 spokes broke in the center, not by the hub or rim. I have a couple of questions...

    Need Hub Motor Recommendation

    Hello All! As my current e-bike (Crystalyte 408, Bianchi MTB, Ping 36v 20ah) starts to get rusty and I don't trust it as much anymore, I'm looking for a new build. I'd like to try a new motor using the same battery. Here's my list of what I want and hopefully someone can make a good...

Sounds interesting but too good to be true...

This happened to me just now and several times I wanted to just lock my bike up...

    Ping Battery V3?

    I ordered a Ping Battery just about 2 weeks ago, haven't received it yet so I decided to check his site: http://www.pingbattery.com.

    The Ultra Motors A2B

    Sorry if this bike has already been mentioned but it looks like a pretty sweet ride! If I had the money, I might go for this one but instead I'm in the process of building my own. http://ultramotor.com

    Go-Hub Battery Upgrades?

    Hello everyone, I've been using a Go-Hub conversion kit (Crystalyte 408 & 36v SLA) for almost two years now and I love it. What I don't love is the heavy SLA batteries that make it top heavy and have a limited range. I've been browsing this forum for a while now and I've been considering a...
