    selfmade seperable bicycle idea

    I looked into getting an S and S coupler when researching building a custom frame but I dont think the company that makes them will sell to just anyone. I believe you have to be an establish custom frame maker to buy one. I may be wrong but that is my impression.

    How many pound thrust for good acceleration?

    Im surprised a ebikekit gear motor on my 20" folder with a 12 controller can pop wheelies and has good acceleration. More so than a 7 t mac than i currently run. Its lighter stealtheir but only goes 20 mph which is ok. But the mac 7t can go 27 mph

    Beware American A123 prismatic cells!

    dont want to be an alarmist but this article i read today in wsj is pretty freaky concerning a123 extreme tests. altohugh it did state it was an experimental battery. "The experimental battery involved in Wednesday's incident was being developed for all-electric cars, including a coming line...

    You're sitting on your penis

    The san marcos saddle can be a hit and miss.

    I just went from a 6 turn to an 8 turn Mac

    For my first install i have an ebikekit geared reared motor on 52v with 25 amp 6 fet controller on a 20" folding bike and i like how much torque it produces. Enough to pop a wheelie and take off fast on red lights. I also have a 7 turn mac motor that i briefly tested and it does produce...

    Dogati Electric Superleggera

    Well i at first thought the forward seat position looked weird but the more i looked at it the more i like it. It adds to the exotism of the bike as surely this is a special build. I just read this whole thread tonight for the first time and this build is so inspiring and i daresay that my...

    Possible Infineon issue

    I would agree with gwhy! I also had the same problem With a 12 fet and i though it was the controller http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=37176 and through a lot of trial i am more confident that my problem is the halls. This is after gettting a new controller, testing a...

    Chevy Volt is not doing too well.

    I dont think that full revate is available anymore. Last time i check the rebate is half that or might be likely gone. Btw i think the volt rear seats has not enough leg space and its uglier than the leaf. Theres no sex appeal in either car. rooting for tesla. Hope they can deliver with...

    Changed settings on infineon 12fet controller fail

    so actually now i can pinpoint the problem i've been having on the grinding and cutoff of the motor. The problem is not about programming the controller, the controller itself nor the wires. I confirmed this by going to a ebike distributor near me and tried my setup withe their motor and it...

    Changed settings on infineon 12fet controller fail

    actually now that i received the lyen motor controller tester i think the halls wires going to the motor is bad. i tested the phase wires and they are good. i also tested the controller by using the lyen tester and the lyen tester indicates it is good. I confirmed bad hall wires by testing...

    Changed settings on infineon 12fet controller fail

    I opened up the controller and noticed a cigarette smell. Not sure if it is factory smell. So perhaps it can be a blown cap?
