    The new best headlight

    Is it really that bright or is it because its focussed that it look bright? Too bad it can't accept 48v or 72v battery directly

    Brexit speed question.

    Happened to me many times... and as a safe driver, you just need to keep enough distance with the car in front of you. My main fear is the opposite... when the car behind me is being too close because I am too slow...

    My latest and most difficult conversion Trek Top Fuel 9.9 Carbon.

    My current leaf motor 1000W on 48v does 35mph max speed on city commute. I usually stay around 15-25mph in traffic. It's almost perfect due to my low weight (60kg), however, during hot days or when I carry a passenger I have to be very careful with the wires/motor getting extra hot. I'm...

    My latest and most difficult conversion Trek Top Fuel 9.9 Carbon.

    Yes I did indeed have problem with all motors.... and not just bafang. If I were to list issue by type I'd say: - by far the biggest issue was clutch damaged. All my bpm had the clutch damaged after 3 months max - second is blown hall sensor. It happened to my mac, a couple of Q100H and a leaf...

    My latest and most difficult conversion Trek Top Fuel 9.9 Carbon.

    All the bafang motors I purchased failed without exceptions: - 3 bpm failed within 3 months only... but I have to admit I did overvolt them. - the 2 bbs had defect under normal condition without programming or overvoltage. Its enough for me to have my own opinion on the motors reliability...

    Project: Adding passenger seat to FS bike

    I have done some additional research, and from what you say on triangulation maybe the simplest way would be to buy a ready rack and adapt it for my needs? This one is cheap and is supposed to be rated to 70kg: http://www.tredz.co.uk/.Axiom-Journey-Rear-Rack_54655.htm Or this one supposed to...

    Project: Adding passenger seat to FS bike

    I'm using 10mm torque arm on it, it's very thick and I was thinking with longer bolt it could hold? Otherwise, is this what you mean for the support?

    My latest and most difficult conversion Trek Top Fuel 9.9 Carbon.

    well done as usual and great work. For the kind of money this guy is happy to throw, I'd gave him the best in class available rather than a BBSHD. Tangent drive is 7lbs for 4kw: http://tangentmotors.com/ascent https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=70098&hilit=tangent+sale
