EM3EV selling Full sus frames

Very cool, I will be interested to compare this frame!

Here's another that I just purchased myself. Not only the price is great, but the geometry of the high swingarm pivot is hopefully friendly to a mid drive. eastgem.net

I'll let everyone know how I make out with the product.
 
I . . . . certainly . . . . will post :D !

This em3 frame is really exciting too though, and they are one of the best ebike kit sellers imo.

I would love to have comparisons of Raptor, Phasor, Flux, Vector, Em3, Eastgem, and the rest of this style frames

It would be great to have:

-Suggested and acceptable range of: Front susp length (steerer to axle center), rear susp length (eye to eye), wheelsize
-Suggested and acheivable (based on above): Rake, wheelbase, bb height, bar and seat height and distance between.

A fairly simple drawing of each product would greatly aid in the varialble geometry and measurents.
Then I'd want to know:
-Price
-Dropout (width and type)
-Swingarm pivot type
-Swingarm length
-Metal and tensile psi
-Weight

I might be a slightly demanding consumer, but too much? :D
Full disclosure, I think Raptor offers a ton of info on their frames!

I agree and one of the primary reasons I just purchased one. The easier you make it for people to use your product the better chance you have of selling it.
Especially with all the options available.

I noticed you left out the Phasor and figure you did that on purpose , but I could be wrong. Anyway I love my phasor and it's a very well built frame. I just
wish David would hire someone to put some updated data on his web page. It seems to me like he does not want to sell more bikes. /off soapbox

Anyway off topic sorry.

It's great to see Paul offering this option and by his reputation alone I would assume it is well built.

Look forward to the reviews.
 
Nice does it come with forks n shock??? not for that kinda of money that's pretty cheap price looks good I can see a new build for me coming if I could get a motor cycle style seat on it??
 
Very interesting. At $500 I would guess you add your own everything, starting with front and rear shocks, and likely bottom bracket too.

Build it out nice with new parts, still going to be $2000 all in, as would any really good bike. But most of those DH bikes suck at carrying a battery or bolting on a Cromotor. this one will do both well!

$500 cheap, if you have a DH bike already! Sell off that stripped frame and break even. 8)
 
He said he'll be supply batteries eventually. Comes with a BB. Fatbike width.

I've ordered a frame and borrowed Brake's spot welder for building up a pack into it. Planning on putting a 60-tooth and ~30 tooth twin rings on it with the smallest rear freewheel I can fit, 16t on my cro. No front derailleur, small gear will just be for emergencies. I'll be using Arduino to integrate throttle AND torque input from strain gauges on a chain idler into a single, responsive combined signal for the Max-E. And I'll be stuffing my Geogram One in there too. I'm planning on putting a Rockshox Reba Race on the front but might start with just a cheap rear coilover in the rear. I might weld up a steel rack that I can bolt/unbolt off the rear.

It'll be a commuter and light expedition XC offroader.

I have 440x 18650's to load it up with, nearly 5kwh.... lets see how many fit!!

I'd like to build a tilting full-faired delta velo but don't have the time with my grad program so this will fill my local transport needs for now, plus some unwinding off road =)

I'll report back when it arrives. Should get one of the first.

EDIT: Confirmation, shipped out this morning. Eagerly anticipating it's arrival!
