ALCON,
I have been a longtime reader of this forum and because of this forum I went out and bought a Radon Sunset Via GT (German Trekking bike) and put on a BBS02 36V 500w crank drive and a 36V 13ah Kettle battery from CNE Bikes for about $826 Shipped to the Netherlands. They included the Hydraulic brake cutoff along with the mechanical brake handle so I may make the cutoff switch for shifting. CNE Bikes have been great answering all of my questions (It took me about 6 months to change from my previous Currie Electro-drive kit on a old DM mountainbike). I have assembled the bike and after put on about 200 miles onto the drive is is working great. With My size( Athletic 6'4" 220lbs) I am able to maintain about 20-21mph without sweating and 26mph working hard in southern Netherlands/western Germany. I get about 25-30miles at those speeds. Great Setup!!!
While I love the drive and have had no issues yet, I do notice that some of you have opened it up and have re-lubricated/greased the moving parts to have the drive run as long as possible. This is probably newbie questions but what is the intervals for opening the drive up and re-lubricate/grease the moving parts? What is the grease that you reccomend? I live in the EU right now so if I can get types or brands that may be here and also in the US as I do not live here permanently and will relocate back to the US in the next couple of years. Any other maintanence advice would also be appreciated for the long life of a great kit/Bicycle
V/R,
