    BMW i8 Motor Construction video

    I saw this How It's Made the other day. I'm not an expert in electric motors, but this seems very different from standard. https://youtu.be/h2B1Xz_y8Co?t=1m36s What do you think? Is their inexperience in the electric space showing here, or is this innovative? SHiFT

    With the sh*t that gets kickstarted - We should do our own.

    We've all seen it - Run-of-the-mill bikes raking in hundreds of thousands, or even millions of dollars, in Crowd-Funded projects on the promise of what? - The same thing A2B tried to sell, the same thing 1000+ sellers on eBay will ship to you from china. Look...

    Modern Retro Sub 3 Wheeler

    I'd really love a 4 wheeled version of this to convert: https://www.behance.net/gallery/636517/SUB-3-Wheeler I know it's actually quite an old design, but I have been infatuated with the idea for years. It's like a modern take on the race cars of the 20s and 30s.

    Moving from e-bicycle to moto. Help?

    Hi all, I built the bike attached, and have been slowly planning a move to a full sized motorcycle. I want to build something lightweight like the Husky also attached. I have been looking at the mars 4201 and Kelly controller combos people have been doing, and I was just wondering if this is...

    Assistance? Diagram of lights, switch, aux power, etc?

    Hey guys, Been a while. I'm trying to complete my bike finally. I've had it running, but with Zip-ties and all that. Now I'm putting together an actual enclosure made from those rectangular pvc tubes (thanks for the tip on that too). Here's what I have so far: 72V 10AH Battery to...

    New toy - Sachs MadAss 125cc

    Hi guys, I know this is near-sacrilege on Endless Sphere, but I got a great deal on an I.C.E. scooter called a Sachs MadAss 125, and I'm not planning to e-convert it... I have been sorta secretly hoping someone else would convert one - maybe someone has and I missed it? Anyway, just wanted...

    Enclosures and/or bodywork? What did you do?

    Hey guys, Might seem like a simple question, but I'm not sure how I should build an enclosure for all my bike's bits. I built this thing with wrenches, and a dremel pretty much. Now I'm stuck with everything zip-tied together. I would like to build an enclosure to go on the frame to hold...

    Recharge your EVs batteries like refilling a gas tank

    Hopefully, this is not a repost. Basically, the battery power is stored as two separate parts. When the charge is dead, you refill it by pumping out the old, and filling in with new. An old idea, but recently improved at MIT. Pretty cool. http://www.gizmag.com/semi-solid-flow-battery-design/18907/

    Understanding Gearing via V4 Reduction Drive

    OK. So I am now awaiting all my parts and I'm trying to determine if I went the right route with the gears and stuff. I think I did, but I'm just having a hard time wrapping my head around gears, ratios, and so on. Could you just let me know if I've understood it all properly, and what the...

    Newbie with some opinion questions?

    Hello all and thanks for checking out my thread. I appreciate any help you can provide. I've been looking for an urban commuter and was reading about the ElMoto, ENV, and others like the Zero s, comoto, and the Brammo Enertia. What struck me, there is nothing that is between a motorcycle and...
