    Phat Bike Build

    Thanks jkb. The link to the ebay seller of the fairing is the best deal I've seen on anything like that. I'm looking at some aero options for my semi-recumbent LWB and, while there are some really nice options ($$$$), they far exceed my budget. How difficult do you think it would be to mount...

    Phat Bike Build

    Do you have pics with the tailbox / windshield combo? Any numbers comparing the same route, tires/pressures, and weather conditions with the combo to not having them? Also, any info on where you sourced the windshield and / or tailbox?

    Making a custom secure container

    Not sure about how to best join them but aluminium tent poles can be bought with some nice preformed angles. Might also consider using fiberglass or even carbon fiber tent supports as a frame. http://www.questoutfitters.com/tent_poles.htm

    Aerobic Cruiser Hybrid Cycle

    GENERAL THOUGHTS While our ride was about the same distance as my round trip commute the first half was at a much slower pace than the commute and the second half was at about the same pace as the commute. The first half of our ride I rarely got out of first gear. The next day, or two, I also...

    Aerobic Cruiser Hybrid Cycle

    Looks like Aerobic Cruiser is in clearing out the inventory mode. I see on eBay they are selling bare frames with the swingarm, rear shock and the speed sensor switch installed.

    Aerobic Cruiser Hybrid Cycle

    It has the ASI BAC1000 for a controller. I do have the configuration software and am ABOUT to order the cable. Even though the shipping and other fees from Canada are more than the cable. Oh well. As for the settings impacting the performance I would guess there is a ramp rate and it is set...

    Aerobic Cruiser Hybrid Cycle

    Had a vistor this weekend and he took a ride on the AC and let me ride his latest build. Of course it absolutely blows the AC away on performance but that is to be expected with a vented GM MP2 running 18S (66v noninal) and 65amps thru a Lyen 12 FET controller that is to be expected. I had...

    Aerobic Cruiser Hybrid Cycle

    Quick update on the need for a tensioner on the rear chain that goes from the Nexus 3 IGH to the rear wheel. I may eventually put a nice tensioner on but for now a redneck retrofit will handle the issue. If the picture looks like a section of 4 inch diameter schedule 40 PVC pipe that has been...

    @blairhawkins My first thought was who is David? :? Then I checked the paperwork/receipt you handed me; yes, it says Dennis on there. :| Ooops or what? No worries, I'm usually only good at remembering the first letter of someone's name myself. :) @spinningmagnets I agree that it is...

    EcoTrak - An EcoSpeed Middrive/Ktrack Snow+Sand Bike

    First, thanks for the tip on getting the BB Tool to work. Is a good reminder even if someone already knows the technique. Second, that Ktrack does look to be a sweet piece of kit and glad to know it is well made. I had a picture of one being riden with a rooster tail of snow as my work...

    Cromotor + MethTek Monster 24FET + 20S lipo build

    Did you take any pictures of the inside with the LiPo in place? Is there some purpose to the empty triangle space at the top rear or some future use you have in mind for that space? Just curious about it. I have folded up a box out of coroplast to fit in the main triangle of my old cruiser...

    A123 AMP20M1HD-A Battery pack kit

    Agnisum, Thanks for the cell source and the quick redesign for the offer to accomodate my request. I'm impressed with the work I've seen on these kits and your build threads and I'm sure your DIY at home work would be acceptable. I'm not as concerned about how pretty it is as long as it works...
