So after many months reading everything i could on this great site i decided i needed to build another e bike.
Bike 1 is a Trek remedy with an AFT kit which has not missed a beat.
However the quest for more power has truly bit me so here goes.
I managed to buy 2 Giant DH frames for 80 gbp which is the bargain of the century, one has been posted to Aus. to Sam D for chopping and welding and the other is a reference point so i can mount stuff and get an idea of what is going to be where.
As the Giant is a Dh frame the geometry is not the best for road riding so it will be stretched by 68mm at the wheels and 3.5 degrees taken from steerer angle to lessen the chopper feel and make it so you do not have to book a corner in advance in writing.
List of bike bits i have now
Chris King headset
Chris King front hub
Hope v2 brakes and 203mm rotors
Nuvinci N171 hub
Marzocchi Monster T forks 200mm version

Electrical bits list

24 fet lyen controller
