    Is This Battery Pack for Real ($106) ??

    You all are welcome to read about my EVG battery pack project where I discovered crappy packs and one good one from Laudation. Since someone above commented about opening it up, see photos of a Laudation pack below (16Ah). WAY safer than Okoman (anode rings)! And please note the actual cell used...

    BarnBoy’s 24V EVG Battery Improvement Project…

    Oh! I completely forgot to mention I purchased a small 18650 cell tester. All x30 cells in the Okoman 6s5p measured between 1070mAh and 1205mAh. Thus driving the nail in the coffin for this pack proving no how, no way is it 28Ah as advertised but really <6Ah as I measured. And once the cell...

    Statement Regarding Potential CPSC Ebike Law Preemption of 3-class Legislation

    @Ken M - Why would they bother talking with an obvious lunatic? Like MANY others, I have tried to remain silent…. What protection will this provide to you or anyone you claim to serve??? Any direct and simple question asked to you is never answered; just pages upon pages of diatribe…. Case in...

    Hello again folks! I just woke from what appears to be a 4 hour nap. Todays ride was a culmination of many previous rides all linked together along with some inspiration of the Heat-maps feature. Parts of this ride have not been viewed by me since circa 2009; about the last time all of my bikes...

    The "UNOFFICIAL" Hydra FAQ thread....

    Hello all! Now time for a little eye candy! After begging Pushkar, I got photos of my 29er rims (NXT29JF52-II 12K Weave Matt RED/ORN wrap-over). Hopefully I guilted him enough to send photos of my 26Fat to add. Now imagine these with Kindernay and on the frame shown at the very top of this...

    The Latin is all I can remember from high school (I am a duck!); thanks for laughing @Stefan Mikes, I must have been close! OMG, didn’t get the miles today but the wind and hills dang near killed me. Also did an extended down hill free-fall run at 36MPH…. (399Wh) I got a flat just as I crested...

    Fox DHX Coil Rear Shock for the Hydra

    Past life experiences with both….. Air shocks need constant adjustments and air pressure fills. Be sure to buy a good HP pump! Very buttery smooth rides! Sprung coil never needs to be adjusted once the preload is set (unless your weight radically changes!). However the ride is a lot harsher…...
