Magura Throttle Adjustment?

[LI-ghtcycle]

Hello, I did some searching, and no luck on this subject, but I seem to remember someone (AJ I think) saying there are adjustments on a Magura twist grip throttle that allow you to limit the total rotation of the grip or something?

I see two screws on the grip that appear like this could be the one I am looking for, but neither seem to limit the rotation.

Thanks!

I think what AJ did was take it apart and the Potentiometer on the inside can be set so that it is further through its sweep by reconnecting the twist tube to be at rest when the POT is partially turned. Correct AJ?

100% correct my friend, that indeed is exactly what i did, I have since reverted it back to original however, the adjustment wasn't needed when i switched from the Fechter interface box to Recumpence servo tester 'kit'

Ahhh ok, sounds good, thanks for the info guys! I'm gonna have to see if I can get a deal on some 2S LiPo at HK ... having only 4S is just pathetic ... I am soooo tempted to run it at 8S again now ... 15MPH?!!?

Maybe when I get a chance to take it up the local bicyclist killing hill it will surprise me ... or let out the magic smoke! :lol:

I don't know what kind of drive you have, but in general raising the voltage doesn't increase the torque of your motor. It only spins faster.
You won't feel any difference uphill unless you raise the current limit of your controller or change the gear ratio.
