Look what I found: https://lunacycle.com/bbshd-ludicrous-steel-gear-nylon-gear-replacement/

As I said in my previous message, I will get a Bosh or Yamaha powered bike. They are very high quality / engineering companies. I'll never buy another Chinese motor again if this happens to me.

The Germans make e-bike motors. Wonder what their gears are made of? Sure seems like hardened steel would be the only way to go. Wonder if your situation is exceptional. I live in Phoenix I've had fears about this issue well before purchasing. But, this is the first instance of it happening...

Boy, I sure hate to hear about those gears. I've suspected that they would be vulnerable. But, I've not heard of such failures before this. There might be something to direct drive motors. Thanks for the heads up.

I thought the extra weight might be due to the larger battery. Those babies sure look good in EBR reviews.

Wow, Maybe I better look at the headset! Congratulations on your new bike! What a great thing huh?

He's a gregarious lower level form of Elon Musk. He does offer a good vehicle at a better price and for that I admire him.

After owning the Sondors MSX for awhile I've come to this conclusion. It's probably as powerful as any 750 watt Bafang motor. My Ecotric Seagull has smooth, smaller 65 psi rated tires. They just roll a whole lot better. You've got to realize that a 750 watt motor is only one horsepower. I'm sure...

RipCurrent S is a beautiful thing. Congratulations! I ended up getting the Sondors MSX. Fortunately I bought it just before a price raise. I like it a lot. Not as nice as that Ripcurrent though...

Thank you Ebiker33. That is something I most likely will do in the future. I'm a little worried about enforcement of the class 2 law around here. You can ride class 2 without a license and insurance on all the hike and bike trails. A couple weeks ago I saw two guys on bikes that I know are 2,000...

I don't know. There are no specs anywhere. It's a little fin of metal pushed into a tiny compartment over the kickstand. I replaced the kickstand because it was way too small for the bike. That was a scary endeavor because of all the tiny weak wires stuffed into that small area. My Sondors...

It is not as powerful as I expected. When communicating with Sondors they told me that they contract for more powerful motors than stock from Bafang. I wonder how true that is. My old bike is direct drive 1,000 watt Ecotric Seagull (cheapo). I expected the Sondors MXS to be slightly more...

No questions...and no-one wants my opinion

I've had my new MXS for about 3 weeks now. Some of you might remember me as outing Juiced batteries as being too expensive and Rad motors as being underpowered. I bought the Sondors MXS because their batteries are $399, much less expensive than most. If anyone has questions about this bike and...

I know this is an old thread. But, I was wondering if you had to add links to your chain for this modification?
