    Best rear torque arm design/layout?

    Another update, got them cut out of 5mm steel for £15 a piece. Will need a bit of filing as I undersized the holes but looks great!

    Best rear torque arm design/layout?

    Quick update to this. I've revised the caliper side arm to better match teklektik's recommendation. It's taken a few adjustments to get the hole to be a snug fit and align right but I think i'm pretty much there. Good idea on undercutting the axle and filing it down to be tight. I've bought a...

    Best rear torque arm design/layout?

    Fusion 360, free yearly license to CAD enthusiasts. This is really interesting, i've never used carbon fibre as a material before. How easy is it to work with? I'm currently modifying my design to match teklektik's suggestion, although still I think it requires a much more accurate modelling...

    Best rear torque arm design/layout?

    To beef up the dropouts on my ally frame, I've purchased a few off-the-shelf torque arms from ebay, but unfortunately the dropouts in my frame are shouldered in an unusual way and so all the ones i've tried (eyelet/jubilee clip) fail to line up in a good way. So i've gone the homebrew torque...

    135mm Pasion Hub motor doesn't fit in 135mm dropouts

    Thanks dogman for clearing that up :) the frame I've got isn't a cheap one so I'd rather not bend it that much. They've offered me a 135mm freewheel hub motor for postage cost so I'll go for that and slap a 9 speed freewheel on. Leaves me with a cassette hub motor 145mm with Shimano cassette...

    135mm Pasion Hub motor doesn't fit in 135mm dropouts

    It's not a free wheel motor it's a cassette and they do specify 9 speed cassette is ok

    135mm Pasion Hub motor doesn't fit in 135mm dropouts

    Thank you for your response, I think it's been listed incorrectly as I have found identical-looking hubs on eBay listed as 145mm. Unfortunately the seller is refusing to admit they mis-sold me the product and claiming all cassette hub motors list 135mm but are 145mm and need stretching to fix...

    135mm Pasion Hub motor doesn't fit in 135mm dropouts

    I've recently purchased a cassette hub motor kit from Pasion Ebikes. I carefully read all the technical documents before purchasing and they specified that the hub's axle was 135mm between flat points each side. Perfect, as I measured my dropout gap to be exactly 135mm. It's arrived and after...
