Yes i put 2 0.5mm shims. It helped clunking drastically. The top cap was bottoming out on race without shims. However on very large hits i will still get occasional clunk. Not sure if its cables inside. I need to tear it apart and put foam on cables. I might try adding another shim to see...
Just confirmed that loctite 603 is used on headset cups. Reading on how to remove it, seems like you need high heat of 250c, which is not possible with the carbon fiber.
Unfortunately the 52mm diameter bearing is not a common size. Most of the headsets use a much smaller OD bearing so you would need to change out the cup. Its the reason i am still using the szzs headset and havent converted to cane creek yet.
It really depends on how often they sample voltage to update soc. The fact that its after a heavy load is suspicious. Bad cells with less than advertised capacity do not have ocv recover later after it rests. If you are indeed at the knee of the curve, your ocv would stay consistently low and...
You might have a loose connection. Since the only way the system measures soc is through voltage, you will only see big drops like that on a high resistance connection when you load the system. At rest or low current, you wont see those voltage drops.
I can tell you after long climbs, the outer housing temp is warmer than I would like, roughly 40-50c. That translates to significant operating temp rise on internal components, and junction temps are going to be through the roof. This was on a relatively cool ambient day. The rule of thumb is...
It absolutely will. Heat is dominated by I, not r, because power dissipation is p=i^2*r. The dominant heat sources will be from the motor and motor controller. They cant just go and use double the size winding wire on the motor and the motor controller switching losses are not going to be...
Waiting on a new top bearing to arrive. Also, im going to put foam on the internal cable housing. Big impacts make a big clunking noise that make me super wary of bike.
Done a few rides now. I dont have confidence in the bike due to the clunking/rattling. I think i have the headset play sorted out with shims to keep the cup and top cap interference from preventing proper preload. I think the bearing is toast though. I still have some noise which i am...
@tcflowdo you happen to have a measurement for the bearing thickness? All mine are measuring 8mm thick but all the enduro bearings out there list 7mm thick. My headset from szzs is a non internal route one and the top bearing is a 52mmx40mm bearing which seems to be a standard size except for...
I think i am having a front end clunk from a bad tolerance cup/top cap. My bearing seems to have some slop in it. I got a new zs56 cane creek headset but will need to pop out the existing cups, which seem to have some glue residue on them. Did you guys have issues popping out the original...
I was just going to ask, did they mask off paint? Any critical dimension interface like brake mount, axle/hub interface, motor mounts, shock mounts should have paint masked off.
