Hello Guys,
Yes!.. why this is so important....
Well curiously i'm preparing the motor for my 2nd NYX that i'm building for the friends that will visit me... and the reason why i'm actually protecting that future motor, is to avoid exactly the one like a motor i got to repair that at first had apparently a problem of shorted wires, but when i opened it i was all that rust!!!
So there are ALOT good reasons why you should add protection to the inside of our motor!.. when your ebike is exposed to rain, it will one day or another be affected by water intrusion and results often the lost of your motor or require several hours to repair the damages. on the other hand if you apply the proper coating inside it will prevent rust and make your great motor to last longer! I have 10 years of experience in ebike diy and this advice will save you money and extend your ebike motor life!

I attached pictures of my current motor being prepared for the protection... and also pictures of my friend's motor that was completly jammed inside due to ALOT of rust!.. and the motor is nearly not repairrable due to the dammage to the magnets... this is difficult to describe HOW MUCH FORCE MY AXEL PULLER had to apply force on the axel to push the stator out of the rotor !!! even with both perfectly aligned and guided axially...
If these pictures can not convince you then nothing else can!! :wink:
