Hi, I would like some pro advise from this great forum!?
Learned alot here, but I still have some doubts about some of the challenges.
In a few months I will start with a new job and I will commute to it with my trusty "old" bike.
Ofcourse, this MTB frame would need be converted to a propper reliable, fun, fast bike (in that order).
Max Speed: 50-60kph - top really doesn't matter, its acceleration and torque I'm after.
Range: min 70km - 30kph - with pedal effort.
Frame: 26", front suspension, alu MTB, 135mm dropouts.
Brakes: V-brakes now, will convert to hydraulic disk setup.
My "profile": 80kg (176 pounds) - 1m 95cm (6 feet 449⁄64 inches)
Terrain: mostly flat.
Budget: not really a concern, but don't go crazy, keep price/performance in mind.
Cassette: some gears would be nice, if its possible at least 5.
Little side note: I like things to be "overbuild", done it that way with my track car, my Jeep, never regreted it.
Would like to do it with this project also, overbuild brakes, controller, motor.
If I decide to build a full suspension, the parts must be capable and compatible to live up to the future frame.
Would like to transfer all the parts to a full suspension eeb/carbon NYX frame, when the funds allow it.
Motor:
The 1500w rear hub leafbike 4T motor (w temp. sensor and upgraded wiring).
My only doubts with this one is, will it be fun enough if I change to a more purpose build frame?
Yes, I am looking at you MXUS 3000 v3 turbo( I've read that the 142mm version would be possible on a 135mm frame?).
Controller:
A EM3EV's 18 fet IRFB4110 Infineon 36v-72v 60A, looks powerfull for max 20S lipo and think this is the way to go price/performance.
Display: Cycle Analist V3
With torque sensor with a pot, will this get me the best pedelec response?
The optional shunt isn't necessary to have all the readings, if I have the resistance value from the Infineon?
Battery:
Hobbyking Multistar 4S - 16A/h Lipo's in serie's = 16S/59.2V or 20S/74V.
Brakes:
Shimano BR-M640-B and 203mm disk's.
or
Tektro Auriga E-Twin HD-E525 (hmmm, dual front calipers).
Really like the possibility to have regenerative braking, is there "a propper way" to add contacts to existing disk brakes?
I've seen some ways, with screwing magnets to the levers, but find it very sketchy looking?
Is this the only way, otherwise it will need be Tektro Dorado HD-E710?
The only question left is:
I'm from Belgium, and they like to charge huge import/customs tax/duty on everything ordered outside Europe.
Can anyone help me to get some reputable sellers/shops inside europe where I can get most of these parts?
Thanks in advance, curious to your guys opinion!?
