Spinningmagnets, thanks man! Actually I already have had to take the hub apart, as i needed to change a malfunctioning hall sensor, i actually ended up changing all three of them. About temp sensor; So far the only time i've gotten the motor hot when i was riding in deep forest, over steep rocky...

Like so Okay, thats it for the time being. I plan on making a battery case inside the frame triangle, and i have a plexiglass prototype ready, but i still have to resolve how to make the batterybox secured tightly enough to be safe when riding rough, AND a quick lock mechanism so i can take it...

Next i attach the sensor to my brakes. I use dacron, very strong fiber. Then, using piece of plastic and bandsaw, i make 2 fitting counterparts to attach to my brake levers. I attach the piece of plastic to a brake lever. So that it pushes the button on the sensor down. Meaning that the...

Next eBrakes! Here are ebrakes that i got. But damnit, these brakes only work with cable-brakes! And i have hydraulic brakes! So, i need to macgyver these to work with my brakes. So, I first take it apart to see how it works. Inside the brake handle i find this sensor. If the button on top is...

Next i attach disk break to the new rim ....And place the wheel to dropouts, BUT there is a problem, the screws of the motor touch the housing of the hydraulic disc brake calipers! So, i add washers between brake disk and rim (and i also add shims to fine tune). I also add another washer...

So, taking it apart and putting back together; took the wheel out. Took air out. New rim needs some cloth tape. knifed a hole for the valve tyre fitted, old rim taken apart for spare parts

Greetings all fellow ebikers! I want to give something back to this wonderful community where i have learned so much. And so here's my steed, along with most mods and details how i put it together, what kind of problems i ran into and how i solved them.... and all of that. Hopefully this will...

Today i got a mail package with hall sensors that I ordered from mr Lyen. I easily recommend his services to anyone, all was smooth and quick and customer friendly. I also bought the tester for future needs (http://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=20413#p297852) and a torque arm...

Thanks so much everyone for helping me out here! Okay so I need to change 1 hall sensor. They are these things here, right? The small metally things inside and between the magnetplates. They are very small, like maybe 2-3mm. Covered in some white siliconlike substance. (Funny thing I found is...

It occured to me that having ~82volts and 50 amps might be too much and so maybe i have burned/melted something inside the motor. So, opened the motor to have a look inside. Searched and found a good guide on opening a hubmotor here...

d8veh, I tried but sadly no success.. Jeremy, I measured the wires as you instructed (took a while as i needed to buy a new meter because the previous melted a probe and turned black with a bright flash as i was measuring battery voltage, im still not sure what i did wrong! :roll: Wife was not...

I have no idea what that means or what you're talking about! :oops: I think Hall sensors are something that are inside motor and have something to do with making the motor run. Spesifically when to power which magnets i think. How to test it i dont know. I have a general purpose volt/amp meter...

Nope

I just tried to go out for a ride, but there is something wrong! the motor is making a lot of noise, the whole bike vibrates strongly when i turn throttle, and motor keeps cutting off too! Day before yesterday everything seemed to work just fine! The vibration is quite strong, feels a bit like...

Thanks for everyone who helped me out ! My bike is now amplified and it is pretty much everything i was hoping for. Been riding a few hundred km so far and it is just so much fun! Sure there are still prototype-problems and issues i need to solve, and better solutions to use. BUT the Creature...
