    cyclone heavy duty dual freewheel mount questions

    Has anyone used the cyclone dual freewheel mount (not to be confused with the dual freewheel motor/gearbox)? It looks slick, but having it in hand I can't figure out what holds it against the frame so it doesn't pull toward the chainline. I will be mounting it on a kmx x-class, so basically...

    Bike stopped working, what to check first?

    I have a clyte hs3540 & infineon 35a controller from grin (full kit -CA wanted to wait for v3 to go final) and a ping 24v30ah battery. I charge the battery after every use, and both are basically new (maybe 6-8 rides, mostly around 5-10 miles ea.) I charged up before the first, and after each...

    currie lithium batteries ok on hs3540/infineon 35a?

    I can get a pair of currie 24v10ah batteries for less than an equivalent ping. Is there any reason not to run them on the clyte/infineon combo, or an upgrade needed to make them work/last? -SK

    Has anyone used front rack/boxes to balance battery w/ hub?

    I did a quick search and didn't turn up much, but it seems to me that throwing a split battery into a pair of front paniers or better a pair of nice safe boxes mounted next to the front tire would really help balance the bike. Is there some reason why this is a bad idea? -SK

    How do you sell a commuter/girlfriend bike in SUV country?

    It seems like many people here go through several bikes/builds over time, what do you do with bikes you've outgrown? I'm reaching that point where some of my bikes are ready to find new homes but e-bikers are pretty thin on the ground here. Would I be better of selling it on ebay? Take a trip...

    If I could write the e-bike laws...

    If we could write a boilerplate law and start getting it passed in states across the US (Or in your country of choice) what should the rules be? I've been thinking about this for a while, but I'd like to know what everyone here thinks. Maybe if we can all come up with a decent consensus we can...

    Bike sizing problems.

    I have an R Martin R10 (aka Tonaro Bighit) 21" mountainbike, and I love the bike... Unfortunately I'm 5'6" and should probably be riding a 15-17" bike. Is there any point in trying to make the bike fit (shorter crank arms, raise/pull back the handlebars...) or is it a lost cause?

    First time builder seeks build advice.

    My girlfriend and I have been e-biking for a few months, and it's time to upgrade her from an Ezip Trailz. We've picked up a Trek 3500 (hardtail with disc brakes) and a nuvinci hub to start with. We do a lot of flat ground (rail trail) riding and a few big hills so a small motor running through...
