Down Payment made!!!!!!! Woohoo can't wait!!!
:lol:
Well done Dimpirate. Once the decisions made the waitings the hard part.
Any idea on what components you are going to use.
Thanks Rodney !!!!
Not quite sure what I'm using yet :? ...
Here is what I know
I'll be running a 24S4P 100.8 of charger on 24' wheel (currently using hookworms on 26' love them)!!!
David at phasor told me I have a few weeks to decide dropout width once I'm sure what motor ill be using.
He's also trying to make a swing arm that can work from 135-150 (not quite sure how he'll pull that of would be cool though)
Motor wise I was really tempted to go with cromotor or 5403, the weight turns me off though.
HT3525 seems like an option as well at 80amps with my power setup it would take 30 minutes to fry (won't be driving wot for 30 minutes at a time so no worries for me)
Korpins build has got me pretty intrigued as well as reading lots of good things about 4065
Just got of the phone with HPC they say the 4065 they sell is moded better (silver) 11 guage phase wires diffrent bearings, and a few other things I believe magnets
well modded beyond what I understood should have written it down (ill ask for a detailed email). It also has heat sensor inside.
This is what there offering there modded 4065 plus aircooling an 18fet sensorles controller for 90V nominal at 60 amps. The controller also works with temp sensor slows down half way at 90c and shuts down at 120c (I believe those were the numbers). He also assured me that besides a little jitters from a complete dead stop( avoided by moving slightly forward) there are no bumpy times when accelerating he can also make CA compatible.
What I don't like is that if I decide to go for more amps I can't program controller like I would with Lyen. The heat sensor compatibility is a definite plus though!!
All this from HPC is +- $1000
So motor and controller still not sure..
Wheel build ill probobally go thru Holmes... Don't want to go with scooter rim, will probobally just go with strong downhill rims and appropriate spokes and 20mm through hole in front wheel for forks.
As far as suspension not sure (don't know much about bicycles exept for how to ride them), I just weigh 155 lbs though when going to work I carry an extra 40-60 lbs sometimes. I'll only be off roading occasionally,but want good suspension for comfortably hopping up and down sidewalks and potholes along the way.
Definattely want some bad ass breaks to!!!!
For all the rest Ill choose as I go, might just follow phasor suggestions
Lots of choices be months before I get this going still exited!!!
