I had a drum on the front of current brake. Used to smoke under heavy braking. Hehe Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Fair enough. I might hook up regen and see. Maybe regen and front only might be a good option. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Is that wise from 30+ mph? Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Damn it. I thought this was the build thread. Sorry can an admin move this over to where it belongs? Thank you Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

As I've just been basically sacked I no longer have access to all my tools, a workshop or free materials. [emoji24] And my wife absolutely hates my hire ebike build. [emoji2357] I've been looking for a cheap project to fit my leaf to. And here it is. Ladies beach cruiser...

I really like the thrust line. So I'd need 22lbs of thrust to get up a 10% incline. Really interesting. Thanks again. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

Yeah. I mean all other ROAD users are required. Cycles use the road, well at least in the UK. So why are they special. And honestly most cyclists that I know or come into contact with are arrogant dicks who think they have more rights on the road than anyone else. Think it's only fair. I...

If you factor in the cost of a welder for a beginner who is only going to make a handful of packs in his lifetime, maybe even just one. Then this is a cheaper option. Yes it does take up more room but you just factor it in. It may not be the most suitable application for everyone but I think it...

Wow that is awesome. Lovely colouring. Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

I actually think that cyclists should have to have public liability insurance. I don't think that ebikes should have to be registered as mopeds until they're up their in the power and speed range although. That's quite easy to do. But I imagine being hit by a moped at 30mph is still very...
