    Lacing Crystalyte The Crown TC80 to Mavic

    . The spokes are protruding about 1mm on avg. Which from my ammature wheel building senses tell me is quite good. The real thing I'm after is getting custom quality spokes that will lace a crown to a EX823 which is a challenge.

    Lacing Crystalyte The Crown TC80 to Mavic

    So after realising that I was going to have to build this wheel myself - here it is. First wheel I have ever built and all went pretty smooth. I will take it to a shop that can check spoke tension and give it the thumbs up. I was originally told by one of the leading electric bike shops in...

    I could have gone "balls out" and built something which would look like a motorcross 750cc dirt bike going down the sidewalk but I'm thinking that would draw a lot of unwanted attention - I'm hoping when I'm finished with this build and it has all its plastic thrown back on it it will look...

    This is early in the build when I was sizing up a custom stainless steel battery box for the frame and taped on Kelly Controller so I could have a look at the controllers software on the laptop. Software package looks nice.

    The forks steering tube was too short and a new one costs more than I paid for the forks. After several hours on the lathe and press we have a stainless steel made and fitted. The thought of me doing 80kph and not eating concrete was a great inspirator during making of the tube.
