"Not a lawyer in any way, shape, or form!
Rather be mistaken for an insurance salesman." -Toorbough ULL-Zeveigh

"Sometimes being a weasel can prove useful. (I'm vying for quotability)" -Toorbough ULL-Zeveigh
 
Since ypedal posted one of his own, and nobody else quoted it here, I thought I'd submit the proverb-ial good quote self-vote. :D


Mathurin, you're going to scare off the new recruits...errrr, members... who'll rightly suspect endless sphere is some kind of cult. We don't let them know that until the first steps of indoctrination/assimilation are complete!

Ha! Mate, this morning I was cruising along at a nice steady 28kph (17.5mph) most of the way into work. The ebike was sitting in the garage, it was just me, my leg power and the MTB :D Now when I finish my hybrid build with the 3 speed internal hub + triple front chain ring and skinny 27" wheels I expect cruising speeds to be much higher.

Motors? We don't need no steenkin' motors! (Unless my knee craps out again that is :cry: )

Yes, should have read '15mph/200W'

My ebrake automatically comes on at 32kph so I'm not even able to keep up with lycras in the street which is rather humiliating, unitil we reach a hill.

"I have removed the tupperware that the controller was in and that stopped it from shuting off from heat." -weirdeh

The quintessential DIY mindset. You do what you can with what you got...and then fix it only after it quits working. :lol:
 
Ah phoey my line - -

"When I opened the case there was a pool of solder in the corner which had melted off of the buzz bar. Guess it ran a little hot."

Get large amounts of alcohol before you start this project. Not that you will want to use some while working on the controller, but after, you will need a small vacation.

At one point I was mounting the chain by turning the sprocket, and it popped the wrong way and caught a finger. I don't think it needs stitches. It's not getting any even if it does.
