When I originally set up my eMTB 3 yrs ago I didn't like the bar mount system for the display as I considered it to be to exposed. I made up a simple mount out of some 1/8" aluminum flat stock I had on hand. Just drilled a 1 1/8" hole and then cut out the desired shape with my band saw. Idea...
My bikes not much to look at so I'm including mostly scenic view.
Taken riding back home from elk trailing on that spit of land in the foreground. The furthest point of land is 80 miles away....North Coast of Oregon
No real harm in topping it off as the way things are going the projected battery lifespan versus the way people change bikes and the other issues like failed motors etc. you probably don't need to worry about pro-longed battery life.
If your bike has the 700wh battery they are 2170 cells and...
It's about 60miles as the crow flies to the point of land, Tillamook Head, in the distance.
As far as I can ride on our trail to the beach 200' below the house
That is not an issue where I live/ride fortunately. There is a 1000w limit here in OR and we are keeping the Class laws at bay and raise the upper limit from 20 to 25mph, which oddly enough they allow scooters here and who wants to go 25 on them?
Where I primarily ride nobody is getting hurt...
Choice! Free range riding is not easy to find in this day and age....definitely want an at least 130mm FS though as it looks pretty "bumpy" Thanks for sharing as one can only wish at this stage of the game.....
^^^^^Brilliant.
I just lean my bike up against with the drive side out and do a bottom section of chain at a time then lift the rear end slightly and give it the proper stroke but that little unit right there would be just the dick for dolly! Thanks for the tip
On a Creo I would imagine you would get less than an hour of ride time at that tempo nor the gearing to be pedaling effectively.
The Creo is a road bike and not apt to show up on "trails" other than bike paths and lanes. Also anyone that has ridden an eBike uphill knows that it won't magically...
Good general info from Slowroller about Bafang. They for sure are the market leader here in the US with their BBS01/2 kit mid drives but while they have proven somewhat reliable they are cadence PAS and to my mind worthless for mtb use.
The 1000w, with 3000w capability, 150nm torque Ultra does...
The make America great again crowd is as usual head in the sand or trying to get it there here where I live.....Swarms of visitors besiege Oregon coast despite coronavirus, pleas of locals: ‘It’s a threat to our very lives’
Small communities like Tillamook where I live have little medical...
Smart of them to up the voltage beyond 36v ala Rocky Mtn. but 51v is a strange number. 48v at FSOC is 54.6v so it does pass by there on the way to cutoff. A 52v battery at FSOC is 58.8v and will also bleed down to 51v eventually.
Whatever, it looks like a very smart machine.....and Cedric's a...
"a mtb at $1700 is not cheap. There are bikes with good torque sensing mid drives in that price range already built to the same spec otherwise."
Not sure how that could be construed as a positive. Caveat Emptor!
I got a chance to ride one the other day while I waited for my mechanic buddy to mod my left brifter into a dropper activator. Steep up hill right out the door and in Turbo was about equivalent to my bike at the same power level, but I have two levels to go and I think I would miss them.
Light...
The original Sondors crowd funding $500 e-fad bike was a huge success and I didn't believe he could produce them but ultimately did. Of course they wouldn't stand up to any real riding but the price was right and got a following of rabid fans.
Since he has carried on and with his line of supply...
Here in the US you can get a TSDZ2 mid drive and 48v/500wh 2170 cell battery drop shipped for under a grand. The system is totally trail capable as it has a good enough torque assist and @ 18a peaks at 864watts in turbo. There is some open source software that can fine tune it just like the big...
