    Please help me critique my dream ebike.

    Thank you, everyone, for your input. You have improved my dream ebike and I can't wait to share it with you when it's done. Hopefully within a couple months.

    Please help me critique my dream ebike.

    I did not mean to ward against criticism. Perhaps my language was too absolute. I have heard of this being a point of failure before. Could you explain to me how this failure occurs? Is it simply from the torque of the mid drive turning over the freewheel during normal operation? or is it from...

    Please help me critique my dream ebike.

    Thanks again. I am learning from you with each reply. Do you have any idea about the possibility of mounting a motorcycle wheel to quick release drop outs? Or recommendations for high speed bicycle wheels and tires?

    Please help me critique my dream ebike.

    1. I see. You have a good point about having to slow down for bumps and keeping my wheels planted. 2. You are probably right about the very large rear hub and more powerful controller being a better solution for my goals. However, I am in love with the idea of dual electric drive. Even if I...

    Please help me critique my dream ebike.

    I appreciate your input. It has made me more closely consider my design, though I am skeptical of some of your assertions. 1. I am skeptical that full suspension is really so necessary. My current ebike has zero suspension and will get up to 45mph and I've had it as fast as 49mph with no...

    Please help me critique my dream ebike.

    I plan on building another ebike. I have some design goals, a rough components list, and a dream. In short: I want a fat mountain bike e-moto conversion with dual electric drive and no shifting (single speed). Design goals: It must be possible to assemble the bike from existing components in...

    Slightly used Ezee 350 clutch won't engage at speed. (Strange noise)

    After inspecting and re-crimping my hall sensor wires the clutch appears to be engaging correctly at any speed (on the stand). However, the Ezee 350 still seems to be making a strange noise while coasting down from speed. It sounds fine while powered. (Edit: 08/14, the bike is working. All of...

    Slightly used Ezee 350 clutch won't engage at speed. (Strange noise)

    I am using an Ezee 350 as my front motor on a 2WD conversion ebike. It was working fine in concert with my rear running at 52V*20A. However, my clutch locked in on a ride today. So, after a little bouncing and some throttle pulses when it did not come loose I figured "I'll just ride it slowly...

    Totally new unused Ezee 350 geared hub motor spins but won't engage the wheel.

    It is not running in reverse. I have attempted different phase combinations, but have not tried different hall sensor combinations. Do I need to be swapping my hall sensors in sync with my phase wires? I admit I am inexperienced.

    Totally new unused Ezee 350 geared hub motor spins but won't engage the wheel.

    https://www.ebikes.ca/shop/electric-bicycle-parts/motors/rear/mezee350rc.html The motor is rated for 500w-1000w. "350" in this moniker refers to 350rpm, you can look it up on ebikes.ca. Also, I have limited to 25A and only 40% throttle via the SW900 display. That's 20.8V*25A=520W. I am within...

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1H2uG2YsI-Vr6bjcq2Dt5tyePaFFEUGsK/ My Ezee 350 geared hub motor is new from ebikes.ca. It will accept throttle, but will not drive my wheel. I replaced the anderson powerpole and jst-sm connectors on it. All of the external connections are secure and not shorted...
