    9c wire through axle

    I just bought a second motor and the wires aren't coming through the end of the axle, but through the side of the axle, just in front of the brake disc mount. I've never seen that before and while it's cool not to have to worry about banging up the wires out the end, I'm not sure how to mount...

    Question about wiring problem

    I'm looking for some help with a motor that I can't get going and some troubleshooting but first some info... 9c motor that had the wires coming through the axle banged up bad enough they had to be replaced. Sighed, frowned then replaced phase and hall wires and got everything back together...

    Harness help

    3 posts lost, won't lose a 4th... Adding another 20s for 20s2p. Can I run two 20s strings and then parallel them? I saw some mention of another way, but don't know the benefit of what seemed more complicated. I have a 900W BMSBattery charger coming, will it see it as a 20s 16Ah battery? Can I...

    20s spark/LiPo break in

    Hi, I have four 5s 8000mAh Zippys to run my bike and I just finished getting the connectors all squared away, which basically consisted of making a 5.5mm bullet to ec5 adapter. I've read a lot of discussion about breaking in the lipo batteries so I figured I'd cycle them on the charger today...

    Commuter/fun build

    Hi, I recently became interested in the electric, as I'm sure many have due to the frustration with oil, and have spent a couple weeks reading as much as I can online and have lurked here for most of that time. I've learned quite a bit so far, and there is obviously much more to learn about the...
