Wow! Nice bike!

Thanks for the reply, Kado. That will be something for me to watch out for. Sometimes I think I feel phantom wobbling in the left pedal, but the crank is on tight, so I chalk it up to paranoia. I also did the cut-up pop can to use as shims where the crank connects to the bottom bracket, but...

This interview was posted recently (saw it on reddit.com/r/ebikes ). Grin Technologies makes something called a Cycle Satiator, and apparently you can set parameters on how much charge a battery gets. It can also track all sorts of stats. I wanted one until I found out it's $300. My battery is...

While riding home yesterday I was stopped at a stop-light. One lady was on a standard pedal bike, and then a guy with no legs on a carbon-fiber hand-bike rolled up. We were going slightly uphill, and the hand-bike guy blew past the lady on the bike. I didn't realize a hand-bike could be so fast...

If you describe the type of riding you want to do, how far you want to go, and how much you want to pedal, you may get more informative answers. I bought my Bafang 750 from Paul, as well as his 48v 16.5 amp-hour battery that uses 29E cells. Not all cells are equal. Different types of cells have...

The bike runs on 29" tires, and the front chain-ring is the default Bafang 46 tooth (right?). The back looks like a 34 tooth. I was doing about 17-19 mph in first gear on the flats at full throttle. Now that I write it out it sounds like pretty tall gearing.

My 8 speed shifted okay at the beginning of the week (when I installed my motor), but by today I couldn't shift into lowest or highest gears. The local bike shop tweaked the set screw limiters on each side, and I recovered the use of those gears. $15 labor. Are you sure there isn't a shop that...

I installed a Bafang BBS-02 750w motor in my Norco Storm 9.1 earlier this week and have been riding it to work ever since. It's been great for my 7-10 mile (one way) hilly Seattle commute. Each day I've been attempting different routes with progressively steeper hills. Today was a big test -...
