    29mm to 35mm to 50mm -> My evolution to the Cromotor

    Hi Methods, If you still need the Cromotor, I can send you mine if you take the delivery costs + whatever you can spare. It's laced into a SAS HALO 24" rim, which might suffice for your purposes. KR, Henk

    Compact Field Oriented Controller, ASI + Grin, limited run

    So, after more than one year with my PhaseRunner I also get some terrible faults, inhibiting me from riding my bike. Faults[0]: Controller over voltage Faults[2]: Bad current sensor calibration Faults[9]: Instantaneous phase over current Warnings[12]: HiSOCFLDBK Only when I completely redo...

    All-Axle Grin Hub motor meets Haibike FS RS 27.5

    OK, finally the holidays have arrived. We had a great Christmas dinner, and most people have gone to bed now, so I have time to write something here. In the meantime, I have had several days of experience commuting with the supercombo.. It is really great! My normal commute is a relatively...

    All-Axle Grin Hub motor meets Haibike FS RS 27.5

    Hi John, It's probably easier if you post all the specific characteristics of your battery, and CA and Phaserunner setting s,so other people can chime in as well.

    All-Axle Grin Hub motor meets Haibike FS RS 27.5

    OK, here is the breakdown. Warning: long post! Assembly I laced the Grin Hub into my 27.5 rim. After the initial mistake mentioned earlier, lacing was relatively easy, using 2.0mm black spokes with black nipples. Then I put a nice big DH tube and a Nobby Nick tire on it. In addition, I put a...

    All-Axle Grin Hub motor meets Haibike FS RS 27.5

    Hmm, for me the brake caliper has just enough space. I like black better than the shiny thing that I currently have. Might paint it black later. No holes in mine that I can see. Hmm. I usually put the bike upside down. For the current hubbie, I gently lowered the hub + spacers into the...

    Hmm, I remember reading this somewhere. So, according to that picture, I laced my wheel the wrong way. Let's see how long my spokes will last.... :mrgreen:

    Did you paint the motor black? Or anodized it some way?

    All-Axle Grin Hub motor meets Haibike FS RS 27.5

    I laced my wheel by feeding the spokes from the outside in. Therefore, all the elbows of the spokes are on the inside.

    All-Axle Grin Hub motor meets Haibike FS RS 27.5

    OK, I got everything laced in, assembled on my bike, and first test ride will start tomorrow. I have completely disabled regen, because I find that I cannot modulate the regen as I would like to on my front wheel. Too much fear of going over the bars.... Will tell you more after the test ride...

    Wow, I feel your pain and had similar experiences importing stuff into Switzerland. I am really happy that my shipment from the US into Germany was painless. No additional duties or whatever. Very nice, very fast.

    All-Axle Grin Hub motor meets Haibike FS RS 27.5

    Yes, the spoke threader is expensive, but it is still worth it for me. I have laced about 30 wheels now (with and without motor). I got this Hozan one from Jenson.

    All-Axle Grin Hub motor meets Haibike FS RS 27.5

    OK, so I made a mistake. In my previous post, you can see how I configured the Online Spoke Calculator. I did it wrongly, hence the spokes that I ordered are too short. I only found out while trying to lace the wheel.... This is how I should have done it: In brief, I only selected [custom...

    Hubmotor and Middle Drive in one bike?

    Hi there, Yes, this is exactly what I am doing (front wheel hub + midmotor driving rear wheel through the normal gears). However, the front hub is a DD and not a geared motor. You are around Winterthur, right? When you are in the neighbourhood of Basel, send me a message, and I can show you...

    20mm thru axle grin tech and green motion geared motor 1500w

    Hi all, Just wanted to let you know I have one of Justin's Grin Hub Motors on my bench in a test fork, connected to a PhaseRunner, CAv3, and a 50V battery. Next step is building it into my Fox 34 front fork on my Haibike. With my FS Haibike with midmotor (Front Grin Hub is NOT yet built in)...

    OK, so this is absolutely rediculous! I read again the PhaseRunner tread. Then it dawned on me to check the Grin site again. I downloaded the new PhaseRunner Software suite, installed it, and 5 minutes later I had a perfectly spinning Grin Hub Motor!! Literally 5 minutes!!! What did I do...

    OK. Getting the appropriate driver solved the issue. Moving forwards, I need to do the following: Configure the PhaseRunner Configure the CAv3 To configure the PhaseRunner I first need to know the battery characteristics, and the motor characteristics. Battery: this is a 14S high capacity...

    Hi John, Yep, that is correct. I had the Phaserunner lying around already. I now have issues with my Win10 laptop not recognizing the USB serial adapter..... meaning that I cannot get BacDoor running to configure the Phaserunner.

PhaseRunner using standard Grin connectors attached to CA and to Grin Hub. Throttle connected to CA. Now...
