Visited with Orthopedic Surgeon shoulder specialist 3-weeks after accident. This is a 12-week healing process just to get to point I can start resistance training of atrophied upper body. Rehab going well, with passive range-of-motion shoulder exercises. No pain at all except if I lift arm from...

X-ray came back positive for "Acute nondisplaced fracture of greater tuberosity of the humerus". This explains type/cause/intensity of pain I have. Will see orthopedic surgeon in one week. He will probably x-ray again and prescribe MRI also. Two hour drive, so hoping follow-up consult can be...

Thanks for the feedback all. It looks like I'll leave the drop-bar bike hanging on the wall for at least a month. Etrike and Ebike at lease a month and will be reassessing how/where I ride. Fortunately I already have a nice routine figured out for maintaining fitness through cold months using...

The last time I went down over 2 years ago was because of hit/run incident with truck....this time it was totally my own stupid fault. I have a question about recovery times for others who have experienced this type of dislocation injury. I flipped trike during right hand turn and went into...

No mods with my g062 motor. Running stock at 1500w-ish for 2 hours sustained mostly on forest roads and trails. I toredown motor last month when I had 2200 miles to inspect. It looked like new. I am considering changing out stock phase wires and uppeimg my controller amps to 50a (currently...

My go-to fat rim is: Origin8 DAT-PRO-80 Rim, 559x73, NMSW, 36H It is out of stock everywhere.....and other brands out also. Thanks.

2000-mile update. Bike is performing as it did when I first built it. Battery capacity is around 90% capacity compared to new. Motor is performing flawlessly. Spokes have needed tightening on several occasions. Wheels rue up easily each time. Rear tire is showing a bit of wear.....I need to...

32650 LifP04 cells. New/Identical. Cells are not individually fused. Rated 6AH. Rated 1C continuous. Total capacity 8000WH. Non-grid-attached supplemental residence power. Solar charged via 2KW bank of panels (surplus 60 cell). MPPP "boosting" charge controller. Maximum 3KW sustained...

Simply taking SxP approach pack would work in theory which would result in a 16S25P arrangement. Gut says to instead build several smaller 16S modules (each fused) and hook those up in parallel to bus bars. Pack maximum sustained current is 75amps (1/2C). Short bursts 150A (1C). Thoughts?

The motor was too fast "unloaded".....I needed high torque and low speed for pulling power (90% of my riding is off road or in loose sand forest roads). After bench testing using a PS, I ended up building a pack with more AH and lowered voltage. I am very happy with results for my particular...

I use the same motor. Over 1500 HARD off-road miles. Initially I was going to run mine at 52V. I ended up having to DROP voltage to 44V! Motor spins too fast for a 26x4" fat-tire build. Controller maximum amps delivered to motor is 35 amps. Max speed is 32mph. For Moto-Calc, use 9.3Kv and...

Requires an external current shunt also for power monitoring.....

Thanks for the suggestion. Noted. I would not use it for 500lbs. Both my ebikes come in at around 1/3 of carrier's maximum 500lb capacity. 1200 reviews, 3% are one-star. Of those not a single failure....complaints mostly quality control issues.

Have not completed it yet, but this is my setup: Using this 22x60" aluminum hitch carrier:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QKGS149/?coliid=I2MBVE3V61N0BN&colid=H89155HI0080&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it Wheel chocks are bent #4 rebar. Center post is 2x2 steel bar. Uses tie down straps.
