    Building 3000w 72v ebike, need some advice.

    IMO Very few, if any, rear triangles on full suspension bicycles can handle such power from a mid-motor without twisting or prematurely wearing out the bushings. For a mid drive, I would opt for a fixed rear end despite the disadvantages mentioned above. At this power, a geared hub motor is in...

    Known Issues & Problems with Michael Blast Products + Help, Solutions & Fixes

    The yellow socket is for the throttle. The red one is empty on my Greaser (possibly for brake switches).
