    r3volved's LR Norco @72v

    Any thoughts on the best way to get the belt over both ends? I'm about 1/2" shy.

    LightningRods mid drive kit

    I've seen some great build logs (I especially liked r3volved's pictures and notes as to which wrench to use where) but so far they all seem to assume I know how to put the pieces together. This is my absolutely first build (small-block) and after unboxing Mike's kit I"m... a bit befuddled...

    LightningRods mid drive kit

    Interesting! I was just thinking of ordering one. How soon do you think this will happen? Got my bonus, paid off some bills, ordered batteries, and am about ready to start the build.

    LightingRod kit standard 09/2014 edition

    Hey - thanks for starting this thread. I don't have the big block kit, but I'll definitely be browsing this - and all the other build threads - after I buy my batteries and CA3 for "how-to" hints.

    LightningRods mid drive kit

    And guys - we're not talking about a big company production line. We're talking about a very small craft shop. This is the first time LR's putting these kits together and he's discovering and fixing problems as he goes along. Product is shipping, but progress is - and probably will be for a...

    Can't speak for anyone else, but "do your best" works for me.

    LightningRods mid drive kit

    Great feedback guys! Thanks so much. I kind of feel like I'm going from "slightly thirsty" to "gulping from the fire hose". So much to learn, and luckily, such a supportive community. The good news is that if I can put the whole thing together without killing myself or burning something...

    Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much. And yes, I'll be using the Lyen controller Lightning Rods is selling as an add-on. I think I have the info I need to go ahead and place an order. Greatly appreciated!

    So regarding EM3-EV - they have 36V, 46.8V, 50V, and 75V. I honestly don't have a clue what would work best with the kit.

    LightningRods mid drive kit

    So, I was all set to order up some LiPo's to go with Mike's kit, and then I discovered the "how to burn down your house while charging lipo's" threads here on endless-sphere. I have relatively modest needs - I'm not looking to pop wheelies at intersections (though knowing I could would bring...

    Nice! And while I'm sure there are some out there who want their kit NOW, improvements like these tend to stoke the patience in me. Take your time on mine!

    LightningRods mid drive kit

    I have one of Mike's kits on orders, but I think my signature block - "clueless noob" - sums it up. I've been known to turn a wrench now & again, but I'm pretty much at zero when it comes to e-bikes, so I'm hoping you guys post a LOT of "...and here's how you do this" info on the kit. This...

    it's funny - europe has no problem with cars that have engines capable of hugely violating speed limits - only bikes. glad that Cali - so far - isn't going too harshly down that path.

    A build thread. A very good idea - especially since it'll help you avoid 75 "now what do I do?" emails from me. :mrgreen:
