I think Doc has quite a lot more behind his set-up than just those basics. But yes you could have the same performance for a ride or two :lol:bosnimf said:so if i buy 12 of these batteries, A crystalyte 5303 motor and a Lyen 18 Fet controller, i would have the same performance?

bosnimf said:thanks for your answer,
so a 5304 would be better if i don't want to work and modify a lot?
And what kind of batteries would i have to use to push me over the 92km/h?
Mark_A_W said:What bike frame do you wish to do these speeds on exactly?
The motor/electronics is only half the package....
5303, sometimes a 5302 is mentioned but i've never seen that for sale somewhere.bosnimf said:Ok, thanks
could you tell me what the best model is from crystalyte for the best topspeed if i use it with 100V?
icecube57 said:Speed is nothing unless you have torque behind it. If you consider a 5302 you have to throw nearly double the amps to get the torque you need for it to be useful. Id suggest overvolting a 5304 and if you absolutely need speed and live in a flat area then a 5303. Im running my 5303 on a near stock 12fet and its running a bit warm but its solid. As long as your amps doesnt exceed the capability of the controller then you are ok. After reviewing what Docs settings are on his controller hes running a razors edge above the controller capeability with no breathing room. I run my 5303 in the road under WOT conditions under various loads and hills pumping 4kw continuous no problem. I wouldnt push it any further.
manitu said:Doc , Do you have a extra set of those sweet dropouts?
I'm just starting a DH-Team build , and those dropouts would do it a lot easier.
Oh by the way, do you have a swinger 4way or a swinger 6way rear shock?
These shocks have a pesky pedal platform , wich sets a threshold you have to overcome to compress or extend it. If you pump it up , you wil not get a firmer ride , just a higher threshold before it starts moving. The best settings with a heavy hub motor , I imagine , would be minimum pressure in the SPV air chamber (75psi , I think) , the correct spring for 20-30%sag , and the high-speed compression allmost all the way in. Never go under minimum pressure in this shock , or you'll destroy it. If you have the swinger 4way , i think there's only one compression dial and you'll have to find a compromise between performance and comfort.
But at those speeds you do , a heavy hub motor needs lots of compression damping do be safe.
What these shocks really need is to get that SPV platform valve removed , and replaced with a proper shimstack.
I can highly reccomend Paul at TFtuned. http://www.tftunedshox.com/ Just tell him wich bike , the weight of the bike , you and your rear wheel + your riding style. He'll do magic to your shock. I'm sending mine to him in a couple of days.
Another thing DAAAMN your bike is fast. I'm setting mine up with a HT35 motor and a lyen 12FET modders edition. Hope my bike will be a fun ride too.
