I really am looking forward to this.Since I'm an extreme newbie on e-bike stuff I will have to follow you experienced guys and also make sure Dave has all the bugs worked out. However even a newbie can see the...

    LightningRods mid drive kit

    I really enjoy reading this thread even though its well above my level. Just curious about a couple of things, 1.It seems like some bike brands/frames take to the LR kit much better and easier than others.True or False? 2.Would a gear sensor like the one Lectric Cycle uses with their e-Rad...

    Asynchronous motors - is induction the new future?

    Is anyone familiar with the company ThinGap? They have made thousands of motors for Industry and the 4 branches of defense service.I emailed them and they replied back stating: Thanks for your interest in our motors. The basic reason that our motors are lighter and run cooler than traditional...

    So what would it take to make the Tangent sine wave compatible? Is it something that needs done both on the Tangent and Adaptto sides,or just on one side? Thanx Tim.

    Don't any of you Stealthers use trailers or sidecars for grocery runs or hauling the kids around? Ha! A trailer would seem to be handy at times. Happy E-Biking Folks. Tim.

    PAnasonic 18650 3400mah

    Riba, I think it would be cool if you would make a recommend list for the assorted 18650 batteries.I mean for example for e-bikes,so many ask if this or that 18650 is good or not. The list would change over time due to battery technology.I know many would appreciate it. Some e-bikers want...

    Marc, Thanks for the reply.It's obvious you have a lot of knowledge and hands on with the ICE Trikes. I have been thinking very seriously about an electrified trike,especially after seeing the new ARCUS velo shell.It was made for the ICE Sprint and Adventure trikes.It will also fit a handful...

    Although the state laws except a very few have not kept up with human powered/pedaled bicycles,they also will not bother with you.1,2,3,4,5,6 etc wheels just simply doesnt matter.And of course adding electric is ok too,providing you stay at 20 mph or under.I believe there is a power limit...

    Marc, You definitely could add battery boxes on each side just under where you sit attached to frame.You obviously want equal weight on each side and too the weight would be low and centered. The real issue isn't adding everything you need to go electric.But rather can your trike frame handle...

    What would be bad ass is a LR kit on any of these 3 or 4 wheel trikes! Pics from Utah Trikes.I'm seriously wanting a trike or quad for winter transportation.And would need electric drive for the snow as I would tire out much to fast trying to pedal thru several inches of snow.

    I believe the moped tires are sized much like the motorcycle tires the other Stealth owners are using.For example the 19-inch moped interface is very similar to a 24-inch bicycle interface.A great write up at ElectricBike.com Just for future reference or simply reading enjoyment.Nice pics too...

    It would take a lot to get me away for Hook Worm's. TV, Just curious really but have you ever looked into moped tires for street use? I would think they would last longer than bicycle ones.I was reading over at Electric Bike about them.A small sentence from EB below. "For the street, look...
