Edit: saw winkinatcha post.
Ok, so we are now a NFP(non for profit) that is helping people with physical disability rehabilitate through the use of electric bikes.
KiM you cool with being pimped out in such a manor?
No one will frock with us and you might get a free flights, lol

Unless someone else is driving down with a van or something I'm thinking freighting the battery and rear wheel down ahead of time and flying down with the rest of the bike on the plane with me is probably the way to go. I'll be time limited so will probably fly down the night before, put the bike together then, race the next morning then fly out that night.
It needs a good sweep as Joe said. Remember it's not just about power, there has to be some skill involved.Hyena said:Looks a little too rough to race on in the current condition.
I could and I did! Awesome fun going in and out of the corners! Joe had better tires though.Hyena said:Ok for mucking around but from the vid it looks like you couldn't ride too enthusiastically.

T3sla, That's Shorza's first hi-power build (GT Avalanche frame, Judy RockShox front, hardtail dual disc, custom torque arms, regen, 9 continent rear (not sure wot number) 18s at 40 amp == 3kw topspeed 70 kph, in frame batterries using plastic downpipe with vinyl cover...Maxis Holy roller tyres)
Save the endowment bravado for the races

Nope, I call naming rights as it spawned from the hijacking of my build threadif I did THAT yeah I'd expect it to be called the "Frankencycle Winkinatcha Praise Him Praise Him PRAISE HIM 'cos he is ace and has an enormous penis race thanks to JOE"
True, and I guess it adds an extra element of interest if you're spending 1/2 the time navigating an obstacle course of missing track :lol:full-throttle said:It needs a good sweep as Joe said. Remember it's not just about power, there has to be some skill involved.
Cool. I suppose as long as the condition of the track and rough patches are such that it allows you to still belt around (ie not a sudden ripped section mid way through a sweeper you'd otherwise be able to lay into.Awesome fun going in and out of the corners!
Nope, I'm not going to touch thatt3sla said:Personally I prefer it like that, rough and dirty.
That'd be a 9x7 (or is it 7x9, I can never remember the bloody naming conventions!) - and with 120% timing you can squeeze just over 70 from them.9 continent rear (not sure wot number) 18s at 40 amp == 3kw topspeed 70 kph,
That'd be pretty sweet! Assuming there was enough access to get in there. Though like you say if it's only the odd bad patch you could probably DIY it. Im not sure hitting a sudden patch of cement would be desirable if cornering hard (especially in the wet) but you can probably get by.The way to get bitumen laid is via slabs, speaking for experience the kiwis (who mainly tar the roads here) will divert flow for a good 'ol slab of crownies.
To be honest I'm not planning to show up with an absolute ball tearer - maybe a few years down the track once it's more established but for now I'd be happy to rock up with an a lightly modded (ie drilled) crystalyte.Guess if I build something it will be to the 'slot car' Hyena/winkinatcha spec.
Speed winds for racing will probably end in tears without good thermal management. But that's all part of the fun.Or I grab something with a speed wind and change over when we meet for track days

Yeah, reaffirmed 3 lines above :lol:See this is why we can't legitimize
