Twice as many as full links?

Thats a good question, I don't know if the distance from the BB to the dropouts on the Flux is shorter or longer than my Fighter. What I can do is count the links on my Fighter, but that may not be correct for Flux.

2 lots of half links ? :lol:fullonoob said:
The bigger question is do you particularly need a half link ? The number of links you'll need depends on the size of your chain ring, freewheel and if it's single speed or looped through a derailleur or tensioner. AFAIK you can't run a half link chain with a derailleur.
Re: buying just a swing arm, the answer is probably but I'll have to check on pricing.
In flx related news, I have my demo beta nearly built.

Sweet Jay, chompin on the bit to see more. Getting a case of the wants. Cant wait to hear your ride report as well.
The stage is almost set for a battery build! - yes that's a pile of Samsung 30qs. They came in 7 separate packages individually bubble wrapped in little boxes. One cell per box.
This is for my poor flux gathering dust! Shame on me
Will probably start a thread in battery section when sparks start flying soon.

Sweet Lash, its been a while, what are you going to be running for a battery and motor on your Flx?

I hope to copy 9lives and go with a 18s10p 2 layer pack. I have an adaptto maxe and BMS on the way too! So should be Ali singing all dancing when it's ready. Leaving my samD 80a controller for another build in the future! Maybe a fat bike. I actually am at the beach for the weekend testing out the Reid Zeus fat bike I just bought. Goes on on the sand but you get a real work out. A tourqey efatty would be loads of fun. Sand is a bitch tho on gears. Can't wait to get the flux happening though. Oh and I have the mxus v2 already from samD. So the battery is the last piece of the puzzle.

Your build will be sweet man. Then you can focus on an E fatbike.

So due to adversity getting in the way and me spending all my spare time hooking the rest of you guys up I'm only just getting around to building my own fluxes now!
Here's the progress so far. I've gone with a black white with splashes of red. Needless to say, it's going to be an e-moto orientated bruiser for the alpha 8)

The HEB FLX Alpha will be sweet. I think on my Alpha, I will follow your lead and drop the seat post all the way down.

Got some stuff incoming, front 24" rim, Marzocchi 55R, 203 rotors(maybe overkill) and lacing in tc3080 (from Rix) into 24" MTB rim with 12G Spokes.
So much fun to open the presents!
Some one was really in a hurry to snap some pcitures

Ya clowns, clearly it's not nearly finished and there's at least a dozen parts missing!
I'm looking foward to seeing your 24" beta Alex!. I assume you're going to use an adaptto ? mini or mid ?
It'll be interesting to see if the adaptto works with these smaller crowns given it doesnt with the bigger ones.
Your black beta will be unique Rod in a sea of grey and white ones.
Rick, my low seat post is largely a function of me being a short arse :lol:
I'd actually drop it an inch lower if the frame would allow it but that's as low as I can go without using a shorter shock.

Well, I bet you low seat post contributes to great handling. Seems like the lower I go on my bikes, the better they work handling wise. Of course I have known this, my point is, I always compromise with a minimum seat height for pedal assist at the price of handling. Not the case on my next build though.

I will prolly use Midi or maybe even maxi. Will test three motors, mxus3k-45mm, Leaf 35mm and tc3080-30mm

So, are you able to make the Adaptos work with the TC series?Allex said:

I will se how it performs, will be very interesting. But if this fails, nothing to do about it except waiting on their redesigned from scratch hardware(it there will be any).
