    After a day of hard ebiking, we see the Vector Typhoon ebike resting in its nest:

    Vector display at 1:30PM after setting the correct time just yesterday. The Vector display will NOT keep time correctly from day to day. All other functions, such as speed, distance travelled, power, etc. are correct. It just can't keep the time of day correct...

    Yes. There's no lifting this 130-pound ebike onto the back of a pickup truck or taking it up a flight of stairs. Fortunately, I don't run into those situations. That one time when the ebike had the jammed rear freewheel gear resulting in the rear wheel being unable to turn, I had my wife...

    The frame is built like a battleship. It is the most rigid frame I've ever seen on a bicycle. It's more reminiscent of a motorcycle frame. Even the handlebars are made of extra-thick steel.

    For you observant types, you may have noticed that there is no chain on the ebike. The reason for this situation is that I am getting a longer length chain that I will use with a chain tensioner. The chain that came with the ebike was too tight and caused the rear freewheel to slowly, but...

    I have secured the cables hanging down on each side of the ebike handlebars with cable tie-wraps and took the attached picture. bob

    Vector Typhoon ebike (84V, 52AH Battery; 10KW Motor)

    Yeah, that picture makes it look like I have a dangling coiled cable coming out of the left handlebar going to the front of the ebike. It is a lot tighter than the picture seems to indicate. And it does not get in the way of my knee or anything else. It is not a coiled wire; it is a couple of...

    The ebike weighs 130 pounds with its battery and all other appurtenances.

    I want a 10+KW rear-drive full suspension ebike with pedals and a top speed of 50MPH

    I'll post an acceleration video as soon as my wife is well enough to take the video. And hopefully, I won't flip it during hard acceleration. This ebike has the power to do just that quite easily.

    The largest battery capacity they have is 3.8 kWh from the Vector ebike website and Artur's reply to my question. He also stated that it is 52Ah.

    I've asked Artur Ragulskyi, the owner of Vector ebikes, the question regarding the amp-hours of the 82-volt (84-volt nominal) battery. I'm sure he'll come back with an answer before the day is out.

    I initially had trouble with the Vector Typhoon ebike caused by me that took months to repair. First I accidentally shorted out the battery leads by inadvertently crossing the meter leads causing direct battery short which damaged the BMS. I had to wait weeks for a new BMS to arrive from...

    I want a 10+KW rear-drive full suspension ebike with pedals and a top speed of 50MPH

    I received delivery (finally) of my Vector ebike from Germany a few months ago. It has a 10KW rear hub motor, full front and back suspension with a top speed of 52MPH. I am very impressed by it. At 15MPH its range is about 100 miles, but I have yet to take it to that limit. Summary of my...

    Vector Ebikes taking >2 weeks to ship - Anyone else with this experience?

    The USPS predicted that my Vector ebike would deliver yesterday and, of course, it did not. At least with FedEx and UPS, you know exactly where your package is and you get a good delivery date. Not so with the US Postal Service. You get a date that comes and goes and get nothing with no...

    I used to have an electric helicopter, but it flew away

    I used to have an electric helicopter, but it flew away. I just kept telling the controller to send it higher and higher until I couldn't see it anymore. Now it's gone. I don't think I'll get another one. - bob

    Crystalyte/LiFePO4 preasembled ebike available anywhere?

    I have since created space out next to my barn where I can charge my next ebike. I bought a Vector Typhoon from Germany and it is en route to my location in the US. If a fire occurs during charging, there is very little it can burn except the bike itself. Everything else around the ebike is...
