I didnt find any thread strictly a Conhismotor review, so i put my review here. This is my first kit.
Pictures are thumbnails, so you can view them larger by clicking them.
They are taken with my Nokia N900 so the quality is what it is, but better than no pictures at all.
I ordered the set 9.8.2010, it was sent at 13.8.2010.
My Conhismotor arrived 14.8.2010, but i got it out of the customs 18.8.2010.
Finnis Customs Post

Have to wait there like 50 minutes just to pay them 70 euros tax and vat.
This is what i recieved, weight was 11,8 kg.

It was packeted very well. Price was marked as 60$, but in Finland they want to see the receipt, so no luck there.


First thing i noticed, that it isnt completly black, like Kentlim's hub seems to be.

There is 4 shiny stripes on the hub (like you cant see yourself
The tire says max 85 kgs load.
Controller came with a nice pouch.
I took a couple of pictures how controller is made against moisture.

This is a bad picture, but it shows some kind of sealant over the screws.

This was the only information about the controller.
I wonder if that came from the same address than my charger:
http://www.chargerschina.com/Brushless-Electric-Vehicle-Controller_124.html
The controller in the picture is smaller than mine but no text in that either.

There was another pouch (for the battery) where was a lot of stuff.
There was also a pedelec sensor and brake levers, wich i didnt order. I think for "Jason" (from Conhismotor) its easier just to buy complete kits and post them, than open them up and take something out.
If thats not the case, thanks for the extras!

There was also a AC / DC charger, says 59V 2,5ah for DC.
Couple pics here.

This makes me wonder. People have had problems with regenerative controllers, i ordered a standard controller, still i got these.
Is regenerative controller bad ONLY if you plug the ebrakes?
*edit* so my controller isnt regenerative, they send brake levers, cause when you use brake (if its properly connected), it shuts the power down.

Ok, last night i had enough time to install the hubwheel, i had to grind the fork just a little bit to get that axle to squeeze in.

Maybe i have to change my fork, cause the RST is crappy at best, but i give it a try.

A pic of my Insera, kinda crappy frame (atleast 7005 aluminium), and lousy fork, but all the parts are XT or LX Deore, so its ok for me.

Now im guessing where to put controller, it has to be as stealth as possible. Maybe like a side bag?

Now i measured the controller, the measuring tape is in centimetres.
Lenght

Width

Of course i forgot to measure the height, but maybe like 5 cm.
I think i wait for the battery arrive, then make decisions for the placement.
This arrived today from Germany

Its from Hobby King http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=10080
Havent figured out, where to put it, maybe in the handlebar..
This i wasnt thinking about before Kentlim told his bike falling off several times. I tought that i need a sturdy kickstand to keep it from falling.

Assembled in to the bike

Ugly? Maybe, but very sturdy and cheap, 6,99€ from http://www.biltema.fi/
Now it lifts the rear tyre in the air, but when the battery is assembled, its the other way round.
I start to put a day on new posts, maybe easier to read that way.

I noticed that while the plastic gland is covered with silicone by the wires, the gland dont have any sealant. I dont know if this is necessary, but i put a little silicone just to make sure.
Before

After

I dont know if there is enough silicone, but better than nothing.
Put some silicone where the wires come out (i was too lazy to open the bolts..).

Then i installed the thumb throttle on. Its a pain cause with my gear shifter/brake lever combo dont sit well with that.

When they are apart like that, there is enough room to every switch / lever to work.

I had a bunch of zip ties lying around, so decided to put the controller on the bike.
On the controller is two little niches (is this the right word for it?), which fit nicely on my bikes frame.
So i decided to zip tie the controller on the frame just to look, if its going stay.

I think it looks good. Not very stealt though. But maybe with a cover of somekind?
From the top of the frame, it shows barely at all.

From the wires hanging, you can tell its there!
Couldnt put the PAS censor on place cause the fricken crank arm is stuck. So i have to buy a crank arm puller
. I try to get one today.
So at this point the bike looks like this.

Its still missing atleast:
Fenders
Light (prob
Case for the battery
Cover plates (or something similar) for controller
Bicycle speedometer
Turnigy analyzer
Saddlebags

I got some of the things needed and started put the in the bike.
First i got a crank arm remover from biltema, costs around 6€.

Took crank arm off just to realize that the sencor dont fit there. Put the magnet disc on place. Used a zip tie for the censor (got to do better attachment later).

And installed a motorcycle back pack, fenders and a lock.


Bike now weights 54lbs, with driver 278lbs. Without battery
.
So this is a start. I dont yet have my Ping and dont know when i have time to install this, but its a start anyway!
If you have knowledge, suggestions, or questions, feel free to post them here!
