Joel,
That's awesome that this is your primary source of transportation. I wish this type of transportation were everyone's primary source. My roomate, Tommy (VRdubluv), has put over 300 miles on his electric recumbent!
Would you mind sending me the link or giving me some specifics for those bearings? That is defintely a wise upgrade, and the fact that many people are changing them... well, it makes me feel like I should go ahead and prevent the problem as well.
Oh yea, thanks for the help on the one-way clutch bearings, guys! Unfortunately, since I'm a student and this project is for a class, I need to go ahead and finish fairly soon. I wish I had more time to put into the design, but I'm also taking 19 hours of class. I'll definitely be posting my build on here as well. My dad and I machined my rear sprocket yesterday, and that is only making me more annxious to finish.
Have you guys ordered from TheBigBearingStore.com? I ordered some bearings for my reduction drive on Feb. 12th, and they finally shipped them out on Friday, after three phone calls, and 2 promises of recieving them. That has been a little discouraging, but they are finally in the mail. Do you guys know of better bearing companies?
Thanks,
Daniel
