Go Agniusm, Go! Subscribed. Try to build some adjustability into the distance of the magnet to the sensor in your e-brakes. From experience I have found that, as you get the bike running, you will want to be able to tune in just where in the lever action you want the e-brakes to engage. No way to tell until you are riding it. Obiwan
 
It is adjustable and it engages when mechanical part is still disengaged. This is my preference. When i come up to the junction just by slightly pressing handle engages regeneration and if it is not enough press it further to complete braking action mechanically.
 
Water system tested for 2 hours for leaks. All seems to be in order:

Not yet known. I am sketching rear swing arm to make it as short as possible.
Isn't longer better. You can adjust with a stiffer spring/shock combo. Also you can adjust ride height easier with a longer one. By the way, you have done beautiful work again, Agnius. I wish A123 20 amp were around so I could get some more of those kits of yours. Are you going to jump in and do something for 18650 cells?
