thanks! - sanding/polishing (ATTENTION here, protect yourself! The dust is dangerous.) - primer - finish (this was some expensive two component finish especially designed for sailplane finishing (low weight because of high covering power, ultra durable) I hade no airbrush so I used a roller...

Sorry my late answer. No cracks have appeared. The bicycle endured a couple of falls/crashes but on low velocity which I believe were stronger stress tests of the construction than a potential bending of the frame. I believe also that you can't call the mounting completely rigid, as the holes I...

that's a good idea. you have to work very precisely and cover the spokes with tape or something so the epoxy will not get into them I think. and maybe if you want to open a triangle form you probably have to split the zippers in two parts other than going around a curve while at the third side...

Yes I did so after replacing the blown controller with an infineon. I then also connected another low current switch in parallel on the outside for just turning off the bike when I am on a "safe" place. I mean if no thieves are around... the first setup was kind of childish letting flow all the...

problem with that key is that every farmer could take a ride on your bike :D :D :D just kidding.

yeah that's why my lock barrel just pushes an on-off push button and then goes back and the keys go back in the pocket where they belong... :)

I can't get to my controller without key... the barrel also locks my battery box. So that's not gonna happen. But also I will not have a second chance to start loosing my keychain... But anyway, I did it that way. Got in the controller and soldered wires for a parrallel switch. If it happens...

thanks for the kind words! cheers boris

thanks dnmun for the quick answer. I got my controller from ebikes.ca. there is no small red wire coming out from the controller. But: there is a switch on the controller itself. I will have to open the controller but I assume that this switch is exactly wired like you suggest: that would...

for those who want to take a look at the switch... :) My rude opening doesn't make look it better...

UPDATE: I burned two mosfets of my ezee controller while dragging my two kid uphill. Got a new 25A Infineon. System works again. But I need a better solution for the power switch. the contacts of my cheap switch behind my lock also did not survived the "accident". Amberwolf pointed me at a...

Yes that's what I understood so far. for clearance. here my old switch setup: I knew this was the weakest part of my system. But I had not much choice with my lock system that also locks my battery box with the barrel in open position.... I now understand also why I had problems shutting...

ah ok I see. By installing a EV200 Kilovac in my system I also could use an second kill switch on the outer side of my case right that also do not have to be high-current switch (also connected to the EV200). that would be great. Till now I did not have a emergency switch. now afer this happend...

thanks amberwolf for the quick answer. if you have seen my design you understand why I have to go for such a solution. that could be solved by an exterior real "kill switch" mounted on my batterie box (on the ground wire between the mosfet and the battery). this I could use to completly shut...
