    Torque Arm Doesn't Fit on Front Wheel

    I'm including photos from both the left and right fork torque arms. As you can see, the brake disc caliper makes it impossible to mount the torque arm in the same position as on the right side. I'm not sure if I mounted the torqure arm correctly, even though I had to figure out the best...

    Torque Arm Doesn't Fit on Front Wheel

    In the V7 video is the torque arm installed on the front fork facing away?.... I thought it was supposed to be on the other side? At the 4:00 mark https://www.amazon.com/Grin-Technologies-V7-Torque-Arm/dp/B0D1LP5S1K?th=1&psc=1 I'm so confused now.

    Torque Arm Doesn't Fit on Front Wheel

    Just like the title says, the torque arm doesn't fit on the front wheel of my ebike because the disc brake caliper is in the way. I have a torque arm on the other side of the bike but want to install one on the disc side as well. The torque arm that's opposite of the disc brake side is behind...

    Bafang 800s Display Settings

    I think I have it figured out...is a 700c wheel same size, or about the same size, as a 28 wheel? If so, I can just enter 28. EDIT: Since the image above has both 700C and 28, I guess they are not the same size. Should I input 27 instead?

    Bafang 800s Display Settings

    I have a Bafang 500w front motor kit that came with 800s display. I can't find the settings to set the tire size for "700" wheel size. I downloaded the manual, entered 0512 as the password to get into the advanced settings but when I scroll through the wheel size it goes from 6-34, there is no...

    Torque Arms Installation On Front Wheel Motor

    Thanks for the quick reply, I appreciate it. I'm going to use two of these torque arms behind the fork. I was reading these are way better than the other ones (the silver cheap looking ones) that the original manufacturer stopped making them but the Chinese continue to sell.

    Torque Arms Installation On Front Wheel Motor

    I'm installing a motor on the front wheel of my bike and I can't figure out if the torque arms should be installed in front of the fork or behind the fork on the front wheel. The more I read about it, the more confused I get because people say both ways is correct. Which way is really the...

    Do I Need a E-Brake?

    I have received the battery but haven't run it yet. Still waiting for Amazon to deliver my Schwable Marathon HS 420 tire. It's the only battery I found that was rectangular and small. Lunacycle used to sell a small battery by the name of "The Mighty Mini" but they stopped making it...

    Do I Need a E-Brake?

    This is the battery I bought: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09GF287D1?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 I'm going for a stealth look on my bike and also based on my experience with the 52V 13AH battery (I get about 40 miles out of it the way I use it, throttle as needed, or gently pushing...

    Do I Need a E-Brake?

    Thanks. I bought a small 4.5 pound 48V 10AH battery and I'm going to put it inside the frame bag along with the controller. I'm a huge fan of front wheel motors, it just feels the most natural to me especially when not even installing PAS and using the throttle as needed. What I like to do is...

    Do I Need a E-Brake?

    I have several questions regarding my ebike build. I bought a 500w Bafang motor and I'm mounting it on the front wheel. I'm not using PAS, only the throttle. I plan on using the throttle as one would use Nitrous on a car. Meaning, if I'm going up a hill, or if the wind is blowing right in my...

    I bought 4 ORBTRONIC 3400mAh 18650 PROTECTED 3.7V Rechargeable Li-ion Batteries and a Fenix ARE-C2 four bays Li-ion/ Ni-MH advanced universal smart battery charger. 1) When charging the batteries the charger gets warm/hot, is that normal? 2) The readout on the display says the 3.7 V batteries...

    For those of you that own the Mongoose Hitch/Dolomite/Brutus, etc. what kinds of tires (brand and model) and tubes (name and size) are you guys running?

    Thoughts on this battery?

    So the battery I plan on purchasing comes with a 2a charger and takes 7 hours to charge to 100%. From everything that I've read the sweet spot for charging batteries is up to 80%. So instead of spending $100 on a smart charger that charges up to 80% for you I want to do it manually. The battery...

    Mongoose Hitch Rear Fork Width

    Thanks everyone for the reply. If the Hitch is 190mm and I have a choice between purchasing a 175mm and 190mm electric motor, which one would be easier to install or is there not much of a difference?

    Mongoose Hitch Rear Fork Width

    I am looking to purchase a 48V 1500 watt motor kit for my fat bike. The rear electric motor kit comes with two rear fork width measurements (175MM & 195MM). What is the Mongoose Hitch's rear fork width? I think it's the same bike as the Dolomite, Beast, Malus etc. but not 100% sure. Thanks! :D
