For what it's worth, I've been running a 26" bicycle rim with a hookworm for 4-5 years , same tyre , no punctures , all off-road with 8-10kw. No slipping on the rim, I run low pressure to keep traction and smooth out the bumps. Even in wet weather it's solid, hookworms have proven for me that...

that man has ballz :roll:

I can't help but think Elons the sorta guy that occasionally on a Sunday would have a quick read on endless :) just a sneak between flights or by the pool :) or maybe if this around during his early tesla days :)

I can't break this little powervelocity controller :) I pushed 220 phase with 100amps at 98v :) over and over, this little thing just won't die :) its actually a great match for the 3k mxus. No issues with the vector lite in the 8 to 10 kw range too. The hookworm is great at this power too...

Sur-ron have placed these bikes right at the entry point of electric motocross. From all the videos I've seen they are too slow and powerless for me, 14kw bikes kinda do that to you. however the frame and mid drive for me is a winner. Ill never buy a sur-ron myself unless they change the...

So impressed with what a simple fan mod has done, I moved to a smaller fan and got the same/ similar results and reduced weight so slightly :) I also found running the fan all the time gave the best results, rather than when things get stinking hot, eg 70c up. Be great to see some results...

I'm sill amazed to this day that mxus etc don't make a from factory heatsinked hub! With a researched design for capturing maximum airflow. Makes me think most hubs are built for the China market? I'm going to look at heat sinking the side covers, however just my simple mod has almost cured...

Yep took all of half hour to setup, lightweight fan, will be interesting to see how it puts up with dirt etc. thinking maybe the smallest ever raidiator fan could work, maybe a motorbike one if they make them, dust and weather proof. I've also had thoughts of a 3D printed shroud that's...

To my surprise this worked out quiet well on today's hill climbs , the vector is now active cooled :) I was able to climb far beyond my normal overheat locations on just ATF and hub sinks alone. I did manage to peak out at 110c on one section after pushing really hard, but the cool down period...

Yeh I had the shock the other way round but couldn't access the air nozzle. But I'll have to turn it back round so it dampens properly. Side panels could be sealed with some silicone. Yeh I could have been to blame for the bolt turning, I used a drill to tighten, I do them all by hand now.

Lateral regidity is fairly poor, as it's mostly dependant on the play in the suspension, I thighted things up and tried to make things as snug as I could and managed ok rigidity. No problem for a light build. I didn't notice it will riding even @ 6w

I'll never mention the word "peloton", its a match in hay stack. I'd like to think I create the leading edge for the peloton :) yeh must be the hotter weather setting them off, those strava times are getting harder to set as the heat rolls in. Mate at work wants me to yell out strava as I pass...

I hear you in the distance and speed side of things. I always slowdown down and give plent of room, why? cause some prick on an ebike scared the shit out of me when I was riding :) so I know what it feels like. Ive actually yelled out before at other Ebikes's when they have sped past way to...

Hey thanks, yeh front is 26 as well, it's a thicker rim so it looks smaller. Peak at the moment is 6.5kw with nice torque @ 220 phase. Plan to up it to 9Kw - 10kw. couple of things I don't like with this frame are the battery cover bolts are prone to turning, I had to cut one bolt to open the...

He was actually going past the other way, so he only had moments to recognise the bike, spit and then make the noise. I suspect it may be the same guy from a year back who was in a group at the time, again going the other way. I'm on a different bike now. I'm on a quiet mid drive and used to...
