    My Bafang Ultra Mountain Bike! Frey AM1000

    I'm in talks w/ Frey for a new bike, I'm from Europe so I wondered if any other Europeans have suggestions on what kind of shipping to use. Frey themselves are pushing for sea shipping and they're saying that trains are problematic due to the Covid situation, but I don't know if that's for real...

    Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike

    Just to throw it out there, if anyone is looking for a budget Sur-Ron brake upgrade, Shimano MT520 works well, it's a 4 piston. I got a good deal on MT520 calipers so I just swapped those and the brakes are better now, more feel and power and they don't overheat where they used to. MT520 is...

    Help with an e-bike for my courier job

    dan has a point, 125-150cc 4-stroke scooters are the preferred courier mode of transportation over most of the planet for good reason. For the ebike I'd suggest maybe first trying on the cheap with something that assists you during acceleration and recuperates energy with regen braking, since...

    2021 mid drive fully options (preferably in EU)

    Hi everyone I'm googling my options, but figured it would be the smartest to ask here before I decide on something this expensive. I'm in the market for a mid drive fully with a big battery, preferably around 1000Wh. Fork travel anywhere from 140-180mm. Power is appreciated but not a must...

    Sur-Ron - Belt upgrade KIT

    My experience with the Belt KIT has been very good so far. I can't comment on durability yet, but the craftsmanship is top notch :thumb: . Would be great if Sur-Ron's nuts and bolts were of such great quality as these in the kit. My main reason for purchase was wanting less noise. The motor...

    Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike

    Let's start with a few Sur-Ron website quotes: "Inspected by the strict quality standards, come the best quality product.​" "Professional off-road bike technology" This rear mud guard and light holder is a piece of shit. And I didn't even hit anything with it. I tried to limp home like...

    Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike

    Merlin this 16s5p extender sounds like a decent idea! 3.8kg isn't "that" bad, beats carrying a spare battery by a lot. Got any pics on how the thing and its cabling looks like?

    Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike

    I think that Sur-Rons are still something relatively new and cops also pull us over out of curiosity. But I agree that it's a bummer to be around cops that are bored.

    Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike

    Got home with only 2% today and although it was pouring rain, I wanted more :D Installed a higher rise handlebar (I got the 780mm 70mm riser for about 30 EUR, I think the name is Ergotec if any of other Europeans are interested in upgrading) today and it handles so well now that I just didn't...

    Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike

    My Sur-Ron came with the DNM forks and they were a little sticky. I had this stuff that I bought in Lidl laying around, so I tried spraying it on the stanchions. It actually helped to a degree and the fork is now smoother :)

    Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike

    I think I managed to overheat it today, it seemed like it auto-switched to eco-mode for some time and then after cooling down went back to sport-mode on itself. The air was only 15°C (59°F), but I was trying to climb a longer, very steep hill full of large rocks and soft soil mixed with leaves...

    Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike

    The stock brake pads are disastrous, mine also squealed unbearably. I've changed them to some brand name ones and now it stops much faster with less finger pressure and no squealing.

    Sur-Ron - Belt upgrade KIT

    I like the silent aspect of thing but have zero experience with belt drives, so I'd like to ask for more details on how this works in the wet, especially how wet must it be to introduce slippage etc... Have you maybe done any testing in the rain or mud?

    Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike

    I'd also love to have something like that, or maybe reverse throttle twist for regen. Ok, so if anyone knows who I should contact, preferably in the EU, to buy an X controller (with regen braking), please let me know. Otherwise I'll just go emailing shops, hoping someone has them in stock and...

    Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike

    Sorry, I didn't read carefully enough to notice that Luna only offers "regen coasting". Looks like I'm in the same boat as you, I need an X controller that regen brakes downhill. I ride a lot of hills and want the extra range and less brake burning.

    Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike

    I'm too lazy to go my make my own photo :D So, anyone in EU selling the X controllers with regen or Luna it is? I'd like to avoid the import fees and hassle with bureaucracy if possible.

    Sur-Ron - New Mid drive Bike

    I just got my EU version bike, but don't have regen and the controller is quite loud, plus I don't see the X mark on it. So I guess I got the crappy version. Does anyone in the EU sell X controllers with regen, or is Luna the only place to buy them? Otherwise the bike is great, very agile for...

    Mxus 5k turbo hub motor.

    Please bear with me a little more :D Are the Mxus 5K and 3K phase wire colors different, would incorrect phase wiring disable regen? I'll try to get this baby running soon, this cold outside seems like hub motor heaven.

    Mxus 5k turbo hub motor.

    And I wondered why the freewheel doesn't go on that smoothly haha :D Guys, I just installed a Mxus 5K, but for some strange reason the regen isn't working. Accelerates normally in forward, reverse etc.., no controller errors, tried using the second set of hall sensors and still no regen. I...

    Ferrofluid for hub cooling? BS or real?

    Will ferrofluid leak if I don't seal the side covers with silicone, but add the fluid via syringe directly to the magnets?

    19" Motorcycle Wheels vs 26" Bicycle Wheels (rim and tires)

    A Mxus 5k in a 19" rim is on its way to my house so I need a tire for it, I have one 24X3 Berm Master lying around and thought I might ask if it would fit. I'll figure something out.

    19" Motorcycle Wheels vs 26" Bicycle Wheels (rim and tires)

    Sorry for a silly question, but would a 24" bicycle tire (75-507 ISO Berm Master) fit on a 19" motorcycle rim?

    MXUS coming out with a 5K-Turbo motor, 55mm Magnets

    Does anybody have any experience with the 55mm 5K now, is it noticably better than qs205 in any aspect? I just burnt a 5T Mxus 3K and am looking for a replacement, I guess a 5T Mxus 5K would be ideal. I have no experience with Alibaba, so this will be fun :lol: I'm from the EU, any advice...
