    Wondering what it's all worth

    Been a long time, looking to clean out some stuff in the garage. Not posting this as an ad or anything so please don't delete or flag or anything of the sort, I'm just trying to get some feedback from you all on approximate values of this stuff. The following stuff is on Specialized Stump...

    New potential ebike battery product development

    If you build it they will come! I mean buy it (myself included) it has to have high C rating from your website that obviously should not be an issue no bms interference with Amp spikes 80A-100A or so and 60A continuous, lvc cutout and over charging protection the ability to charge it in a short...

    Semi Infinite Battery

    I'm running 48v and I use a 24v Soneil (it's only 1.8 lbs) to charge my 4 18ah sla's in 24v parallel at work and it goes into float after about 3.5 hours, granted I'm only going 13.5 miles each way, my CA says I'm using about 400-450 watt hrs or a little over 30 wh/mi. I use the 8A one that is...

    An epensive battery charger anyone?

    How many cheap charges have you already gone through? I think the Soneils would be more cost effective in the long run. I bought 2 24v Soneil chargers, I run 4 18ah sla's in series but charge in 24v parallel, I got the 2408CAA 24V 4A for charging at home and to maintain my second pack (I...

    NO WAY! I SPUN A BEARING?!!!!!!!

    I'm not sure how your covers are designed but I had too much play between shaft, bearing (the bearings have play because of design and quality) and cover on a x5304, I took it apart and unfortuanately there is no way to tighten it up, no proper shoulder to sandwich everything together tight...

    The "3,000 Mile Rule"

    Yes and no, I've been running 4 18ah in series for several months now, yes I carry a charger with me and charge it at both ends of my commute but it works for me, the secret is to have higher quality chargers, I spent the extra money and bought 2 Soneil chargers, one for the second set of...

    The "3,000 Mile Rule"

    This is a bit off topic of the 3000 mile rule. I would give up the ice if cars actually were able to perform like the Tesla and have a 200 mile range with the ability to charge within a couple minutes, hell yeah I would, and I consider myself a bit of a gear head I've driven, worked on and...

    The "3,000 Mile Rule"

    I agree 100%, I got 8 12v 18ah batteries for free, if not for those batteries I wouldn't have been trying to find something to do with them when I stumbled onto this site, and decided, hey I can do that, have some fun, and save some money in the long run, which will probably be spent back into...

    Anyone Have Getadirtbike's Torque Arms? Pictures Please.

    I'm looking for anyone that is using getadirtbike's torque arms. I'm looking for pictures of how they fit, what you did to mount to the frame, how they look etc... I'm going to get a pair but I want to see how some of you are using them. I was thinking of heating them up as much as possible...

    Dual Suspension Frames with rear steel dropouts!? exists?

    That would be great, if you post them in this link I'm sure you'll find there are more people looking to buy some, and before you get to many people looking for some I'd like to put my name on the list. The only thing that I'm curious about it how to mount/attach them to the lower part of the...

    Any idea where?

    Torque Arms my idea will it work?

    I'm building a steel/moly rigid Bianchi mountain bike. I had a thought concerning torque arms, Craigslist has a lot of cheap bikes if you can find a cheap steel framed bike you can cut off the lower part of the triangle including the dropouts as long as the drop is at the right angle, cut down...

    Dual Suspension Frames with rear steel dropouts!? exists?

    Why not? Not that I have one but 2 elusive statements like those need clarification, curiosity and all. I would imagine if it is under the frame that any thing you run over sand water mud etc... ends up on the bottle and will end up in your mouth if you use it. Am I right? Do you have...

    Dual Suspension Frames with rear steel dropouts!? exists?

    Does anyone have pictures of getadirtbike's torque arms before installation of the nuts to see the fitment and other attachments on their bikes? I'm looking to probably make my own but if these work well and the fitment is there, I'm sure they would hold great but I'm not sure on how they would...

    First Post, First Bike Build, Questions

    Thoughts on throttles. I'm partial to the full grip throttle having ridden motorcycles for a long time. I'm thinking the thumb throttle might make more sense on a bicycle though If I put this together the way that I was thinking then I can take off the controller (get the extension cables from...

    First Post, First Bike Build, Questions

    Thanks I will need to design these for my bike. I'm just not sure how thick I'm going to need to go and how much shaft extends beyond the drops. Understood. Torque arms and Locktite, there probably won't be room for double nutting with an arm in place. Link? Manufacturer? Model? Any info...

    Cool thanks for that, that's what I have (135mm) so it looks like I'm getting a 7 speed. The only thing with that is trying to get my XTR Rear to match 7 instead of 8. I want to say that it can be done because I think I had a 7 on it a long time ago when a 8 fell into my lap of better quality...

    Thanks for the info how wide is your frame? ---------------------------------- Thanks for the welcoming, and thanks for taking the time to answer. That's right! Everything I've been reading and knowing who I am the 400 won't fill the want especially down the road with more/better batteries...

    Let me just say that this is an impressive board with a lot of smart creative members, I stumbled across it looking for info about Crystalyte stuff and needless to say I have been spending many late nights reading through a lot of posts (my wife hates it). I think I have a pretty good game plan...
