    I think Im just gonna use another hub that I have. I just hope the quick connect is the same wiring. Should be, there is 3 big pins and 5 small pins. Hopefully the colors are all the same.

    Prodeco rear hub help please

    I have it apart. It does not appear to have any kind of adjustment. The axle has a lot of wobble, and the coils move with the axle. I am just worried about riding it like that. I dont want to do any damage.

    Prodeco rear hub help please

    I have a Prodeco Phantom x2. The rear hub is loose in the axle. I do not see any way to tighten it, other than taking the hub apart. Has anyone had experience with this? I dont want to tear it apart only to find out theres no way to tighten it down. Thank you

    That is with the controller hooked up. Its the same coming straight from the controller. I test the pin the middle on each one and they show 0.00 I opened the controller, didnt see any capacitors swelling or any burnt spots.

    In dire need of help

    I got the other side open, and partially pulled off. The freewheel comes off with the plate almost 4 inches. I was able to visually inspect the sensors. I didnt see any visible damage. All three sensors seemed to be in one piece. Im getting 4.9v from the blue AND yellow at the little board on...

    In dire need of help

    the green and yellow are both changing from 0.03 to 2.5-3.5 when I spin the wheel. The blue stays at 4.97 My meter is working correctly. When the bike fell, almost all of the wires were skinned and touching. I would really hate to consider this a bad motor, as I havent had it for very long. I...

    re these the sensors that I need? If so, I will order a few of them. http://www.mouser.com/Search/ProductDetail.aspx?R=SS411Avirtualkey67810000virtualkey785-SS411A I will have to see if my local bike shop will mess with it. Last time they told me they wouldnt touch an electric hub, but to...

    In dire need of help

    I ran a jumper wire from the point to where the wires go under to the other side, all the way to the harness. Still reads 4.97 and doesnt change at all when I spin the wheel. Im guessing that the hall sensor is bad. I also assume that it is not safe to ride it like this? If so, then I will...

    In dire need of help

    After careful inspection, I did not see any problems in the wiring. I uploaded a video to youtube: PXsi8qe3KvM I dont have any wire, or I would just run all new strands. Im leaning towards it being on the other side of the motor, which I cannot access. I tried banging that freewhell off...

    In dire need of help

    It is a direct drive motor. I should have added that in, Im sorry. I now have it apart again. The wires go underneath to the other side, and I can see under there to asses any damage. I will carefully inspect the wires after I remove the protective coating. Thanks

    In dire need of help

    I put it back together, hooked up everything and probed the harness as stated above. Red: 4.27 volts, unchanged when turning wheel slowly Yellow: 0.03 and 3.84 when wheel turned slowly Green: 0.03 and 2.50 when wheel is turned slowly Blue: 4.97 and only goes up to 4.98 when wheel is turned...

    In dire need of help

    I will do that today. Its taken apart, and I was going to try to take the freewheel off. Looks like its going to be a pain. Ill put it back together and test the hall wires.

    In dire need of help

    Took it back apart. Could not find any other trouble areas on the wires. I dont have a tool to take the freewheel off, to get the other side of the hub off. The wiring looked good, but its still doing the same thing. It will accelerate, but then all acceleration is cut off. The display never...

    In dire need of help

    Ok, thats what I was planning on doing. Theres got to be a spot on a wire somewhere. It works fine, just kills the throttle. not like other problems where everything would shut off. so that made me wonder if it was just a bad spot in the wire. the fall was not hard, it was stationary, and I...

    In dire need of help

    Hey amberwolf! I should have been more clear on the resistance. When i spin the wheel by hand, there is no resistance. What i am referring to, is when I have the rear wheel off the ground, and hit the throttle, it is making a weird noise that sounds like it is being bound up, but there is...

    I have tried searching for my problem, but didnt have any luck finding any answers. I have a li-ion nmc 48v battery and a rear hub kit 48v 1000w I was riding last night and my chain slipped. As I was putting it back on, the bike fell and stripped out the wires going into the rear hub. I got...

    How Much To Charge For E Bike Connversions

    Materials plus labor. Labor equals whatever you want to charge. A standard mechanic labor fee can range from 75 to 200 an hour. For building e-bikes, i would go with a low hourly rate until you have a system set. Then you should have a good grasp on inventory, and can bill out accordingly...

Its a 48v 1000W rear hub kit from ebikeling. The motor has done really well considering all the weight I have on the bike. the bike is...

    48v 500W vs 48 1000W Rear Motor

    if you play guitar, theres a chance that you have your own limiter laying around. You can use a potentiometer to set your speed. That way you dont have to get an additional controller. I bought a 48v 1000w rear hub kit from ebikeling and its got great speed and torque. I dont have many hills...

    A Brave New World

    and you assume that everyone who owns an electric bike also owns a car. not everyone makes a buttload of money. some people have kids and responsibilities more important than dumping a few hundred on a battery. theres so many circumstances that prevent people from enjoying electric vehicles...
