    2022 Kona Tanuki

    Is this the proper start on an elbows-in build. I can get the pattern but I never know if I start it off properly. I made sure that the spoke started off next to the valve. I made sure the spoke angled away from the valve hole so you can air it up easily without having to fight for the pump...

    Pancaked Rim

    Thankfully both flanges are intact. The story is not spectacular at all, I was not going fast and I knew it needed a re-lacing real real bad. Fun times either way.

    Kuwahara Ranger

    I am converting this Kuwahara Ranger: 23.5 - 24" frame with 26" wheels but its a tad too high with my Townie Electra seat, the distance between the rails and the bottom of the seat is just the distance I would need plus a tad more. I can put up with it, but its a bit of a tippy toe situation...

    Whats your best wh/distance?

    I seem to not get below 37wh/mile (23wh/km) on a ride of steady real pedaling but not over doing it, just keep spinning/pedaling. The total ride of 18 miles for the 650-700wh battery. Which is what I am down to now since my other battery is down. I feel the range anxiety hit hard and I do not...

Controller is a generic 36v (10s) 35 amps Battery is 36v 10s 22ah 8p I do not know what they use for 18650's, so I cant find the info for nominal or max discharge.

    Would finding a good red seal or master tig welder person be the key for more accurate strong welds to cut threads into or would it be more involved like a machinist and taking the axle out, or would it be more simple then that as to trying to figure out the steel alloy type the axle is made of...

    Electrical Tape Saved the Day, AGAIN!

    :thumb: If anyone knows a brand name to snag skids of the stuff, hook me up. The top hose clamp on a one steel ta front hub (1800w) snapped off, the lower hose clamp I thought was good but it broke instantly. Then I remember this tradesman on transit seeing me do something to my ebike with...

    What country are you in? Maybe all you need is a disabled parking stall placard, but the fuzz aint going to be pricks to disabled people, play the part a bit f2f.

    E-Bike Throttle, any suggestions for a good, cheap one?

    I bought this same kind of thumb throttle and it lasted a few years, thats all they seem to last for. The throttle prior to that got a bit of moisture/rain into the wiring/connector/throttle housing and turned it into an on/off situation like the situation below...
