    Bike is doing this.. please help

    Op sounds like a jackass reading thru this thread. Guess I’m a “commie” too, give me a Frikkin break. Maybe another bloke to add to my “ignore” list. Moving on….. If the motor runs fine with no chain as you stated are you sure the “new chain is the correct one. Correct size, 3/32” you do know...

    Installed a Rohloff Speedhub 14, IGH on my mid-drive Luna Z1 Ultra Mag

    I believe it. Three years ago when I got this bike I sent them a request for an EXESS section under bike manufacturers and tumbleweeds is all I got.

    Installed a Rohloff Speedhub 14, IGH on my mid-drive Luna Z1 Ultra Mag

    Well then a separate posting shall be in order. Now thinking about it Im not sure Eric ( Luna) would want another bike manufacturer's ( Exess) build up of the Rohloff on his property so to speak. Maybe I could drop in the Bafang section. We purchased the frames and motors from WW a couple...

    Installed a Rohloff Speedhub 14, IGH on my mid-drive Luna Z1 Ultra Mag

    OP gday. My buddy just picked up his Rohloff kit (similar to yours) and swung by my house so we could scope it out. We ordered a Sun Ringle Duroc 50 27.5” and like you are going with the 2 cross pattern for the lacing. In fact I just ordered the spokes (Saipan straight gauge (252mm) and brass...

    Installed a Rohloff Speedhub 14, IGH on my mid-drive Luna Z1 Ultra Mag

    A friend of mine is doing a similar refit. He has an Exess HP-E180 bike with a 11spd drivetrain and he just got his bike measured out this week by one of our LBS and has his unit on order. Looks like alot of mods to get everything correct. I will be following along and when my buddy gets his hub...

    Archon X1 Controller

    Wow. Here’s my experience. Purchased an Archon X1 motor from WW back in Oct of 2020. Compared to my older BBSHD motor it was a big difference in performance, for the better absolutely. Shortly after that most of my friends who I ride regularly with wanted to get on the train. One guy did the...

    Archon X1 Programming Thread (questions and experiences)

    Absolutely need a specific battery for 3k output. My buddy got the 2300w motor from WW a couple of years ago and I built up his pack. Actually built up (2) battery’s for him. 34.5ahr (10) pack and a smaller 24ahr (7) pack I used Sanyo GA cells rated for 3.45ah and 10a discharge. Used a 50a BMS...

    WW 52V Battery Issue

    Just a tip on monitoring your battery charge. Those % readings are usually bogus as you can have the same battery but a different display and get different values. Switch your display to Voltage to better monitor your capacity. Did you ever check the voltage at the charging port compared to the...

    So far, lots of fun with my Frey Beast.

    Nice lookin ride. What does the bike weigh ready to ride? What’s the ahr rating of your battery’s? 48 or 52v system? And lastly can you run the bike with a single battery installed to reduce some weight? Gracias

    WW 52V Battery Issue

    There shouldn’t be any reason you can’t store your battery on the bike. Your display should 100% disconnect any load from your battery. Now if you live in an extremely cold area storing outdoors could be an issue. Not sure what kind of battery’s your pack has. I would open it up and check it...

    WW 52V Battery Issue

    That’s odd your battery’s loosing their charge as you describe. What state is the charge in when you let it sit? I have been making battery packs for about three years or so and haven’t run into any issue like you describe. My wife rides her bike 2-3 times a YEAR and it can sit with a 50% charge...

    Bafang Ultra Programing Cable

    Until he actually reprograms his motor I will say no. Proprietary programming cable and password to specifically pair up to their software config from what I understand. I guess nobody has those cables AND even if you did their website ( Innotrace ) is not operational. Steady silence on info for...

    Bafang Ultra RH crank arm - Resolved

    Depends on the bike's rear triangle and the chain stay dims. See above.

    Monte Capro Ultra

    Just an idea for you guys. It might be the seat actually depending on which type you have. An old bike I had a few years back would creak a bit when pedaling and it stumped me for a while until I discovered it was the seat. Might get lucky.

    Discussion on Chainstay length on X2

    Yes your correct shorter chain stay means tighter turning radius. Not sure what "does not loop out" means. Longer wheelbase means more stability at speed. Check out some downhill bikes the last thing they want is a wobble at speed. Been riding for a couple years now a 27.5" in the rear and a...

    Hydra V2

    If the V1 version is 70+ lbs this one I would think have to weigh in more. If everything being equal the battery is larger using the 21700 cells and having a 20ahr rating plus now it looks like their supporting a 52v system where I think before they were supplying the 48v set-up. Groups of 14...

    Ebike Control/Display Settings - Can you help me determine what some of these should be set to?

    Not familiar with your display. Thes are the settings for the display and not the controller correct? For your wheel size setting put a tape measure on it from the ground to the top it will be more than 27.5" if you want to be dead nuts. Check out a forum called Endless Sphere they have a ton of...
