I made no assumption of you at all. But I stated what has been built and the results of a few riders around here. I did miss state the travel of the fork I used. But no matter as you are a expert. Riding 25 miles a day. Wow! I`m impressed. That is a usual single track day for us in the morn. and...

Internal magnet and ring sensor. you can order the parts and soldier the pc which is inside the unit housing. If I was a betting man I would say it is the controller. Even without the rear wheel sensor in place the unit will run for a short period. You can restart the display and it will repeat...

I have 2 photons 1 stealth gen 3 and a cyc pro gen 2. I am no stranger to cyc. I have 1 to seven dmo2, 5 bafang bbso2, 2 bafang bbshd and 3 bafang hub drive units mixed between 500w and 1 750watt. Stranger to ebikes I am not. disgusted with the photon I am. Also on a previous post I mentioned...

Bought another photon 3 wks ago and this morning it quit working. 305 miles on this one. F irst one I got from BMW this one came from John N/O. I don`t blame these guys by no means. This is definitely it for me with cyc. I thought maybe the second one I bought would be trouble free and the...

a dc motor will run stronger on more volts. Considering the controller limits also.The mileage yielded is also a plus. I don`t play with the 60 and 72 volts as high voltage and Mr. Roberts does. Just not my jam. But the power they can get out of the HD with the volts and controllers in amazing.

If you aren`t going to use the pas then you don`t need torque sensing. Build you a BBSHD with a 36 chain ring with about 46x12 cassette a throttle and 48 or 52 volt batt. You can climb more hill than you can stay on the bike. It will not bog down. It will either wheely over or lose traction on...

I`m an old m/c rider and restorer turned bike and ebike builder. Nice site and seems to not have drama which I prefer. Helpful and informative comments. Learning from others experience and mistakes make for a good site. Alan

a bbshd teamed up with 36 chain ring and 52 rear cog will climb steeper than you can ride. The motor will pull until the bike either looses traction or wheel stands over. Thats on 48volts

I run cyc x1 on my full suspension set up. They are very strong and the rc noise is not really that bad. My bikes with bbshd are still the most explosive units with throttling. I don`t use a throttle on the x1 or the photon or the stealth cyc I have. Don`t like the throttle on the torque sensing...

Not all the Judys are spring. They only make the short travel one for the non corrected and low travel forks. The rest are air forks. The judys are the only fork I know of that have as little as 100mm travel with air as the suspension media. The 100mm judy works well to add syspension to a non...

What have you got against old Judy. I have put many of them on people`s bike from the silver to the rl gold. They are affordable, if you shop around, effective shock. No they aren`t a top of the line model and their price reflects that. So what say is the problem that I don`t know of ? And also...

Are you a time traveler? It is only 2024

What the hecks your rant dude. If you don`t want to spend the money on something don`t. If you want to spend it. That`s called freedom of choice.
