I'm 40% in real estate, in the fastest growing county in Indiana. You should see the traffic jam at 16:00 out by the new data center. 9 miles from my 24 acre summer property with a trashy 1976 trailer on a beautiful view next to a lake. I checked my brokerage account as of 3/31. I was down...

You need to retake your physics course. Pay attention to units. Batteries do have a watt rating, but usually quoted in maximum amps. Different sizes of batteries come in wh rating - watthours. QR hub motors are a good way to get one stolen in less than a minute. Require at least a $3 crescent...

I joined a nearby gym when I lost endomorphine during 3 consecutive respiratory diseases over 2 months. I could not hardly walk. The gym had a arm-mill where I could get my heart rate up enough. 25 minutes 3 days a week, and the endo-morphine level returned to normal so I could ignore the pain...

I could not use 2mm spokes from Wald or DT Swiss, the bent end was wrong for holes in a ****ese motor. My LBS will make a 2 mm spoke of any length with their threading machine, which are useless in a hub motor. Right length 2.5 mm spokes were not stocked in the USA. I had to order twice, as the...

I am not going to poison myself with any diet suppliement. There must be a reason adult over 50 vitamins only have 18% of minimum daily requirement of magnesium. Also a reason blood magnesium measurement has an upper limit. Another ion associated with heart stoppage in ultra-marathon trainers...

The blood test the week before the cardiology visit revealed my magnesium was 2.2 mg/dl. Just below the maximum of the normal range of 1.6-2.3 mg/dl.

I ride all winter with the motor unpowered. No drag, it is a geared hub motor. Battery stays in the garage under a heating pad. Weight of motor, I do not climb the 15% grades until freezing weather stops anyway. No heat in my drafty summer trailer. It's going to freeze tonight in late April...

If you go aftermarket, buy a bigger battery. More wh or more AH with same voltage. Then you won't have to discharge it so low. My 7 year old battery, I rarely discharge it below 30%. It does shut the controller off sometimes at the end of trips on steep hills, but bounces back to 20% or more...

I bought two batteries for $350 each in 2017. Neither would climb the first hill. The battery I bought in 9/2018 for $609 from Lunabikes has lasted until now. So if Aventon will let you have one for $500, go for it today. Price will go up tomorrow due to taxes. I fully charge my battery only 3...

Since I cable up my bike at groceries, stores, meetings, concerts and my volunteer job, I designed the battery mount to take 25 minutes to take off. Also an 8" shaft phillips screwdriver, 3/8" wrench, 2 7/16" wrenches, and a stanley nail puller. The battery is mounted out on top of the front...

Live shows attract pickpockets, shooters etc. An 18 year old guy was shot at Harvest Homecoming food booth night last year, by a man he did not know. (recent plea bargain). I don't have a car, and the bus back from downtown Louisville stops running in the middle of any show. I keep a $15 used 3...

I used to shoot the mice licking the garbage in the bag on the floor, but the B-B's kept making dents in the metal cabinets when they bounced up. I have a daisy CO2 B-B pistol. Too fast for indoor extermination. Nothing else works though. The mice won't go near wood spring traps, plastic spring...

Welcome to the site and the hobby. There is no "aostimotor" brand forum, so you might get the best results posting any electrical problems on https://forums.electricbikereview.com/forum/maintenance/

On some of my controllers the enable switch was labeled "door switch". It has to be connected to a battery plus input for the motor to move. I use the red wire on the alarm power connector, which is always hot, to feed a toggle switch shielded from rain in a pill bottle. Funny name; bicycles...

The U-tube video is about mountain bikes. Presta is fine for skinny tired race bikes on absolutely smooth wood velodromes. Maybe okay on prepared "Tour de" race courses. Presta are misapplied to mountain bikes out in the dirt and the rocks. The exposed plunger is quite fragile, even if you...

Me too. My brother has had presta valves on a tandem for 25 years, and has never learned how to unscrew the lock nut to add air. He hauls his bike 15 miles one way to REI to get the tires filled. Of course he puts 100000 miles a year on his pickup for his business, so what is 30 more? Except...

Welcome to the site. Sounds like you have been in the hobby for some time.

Crimp terminals from ***** will melt out above 30 amps. I have had controllers that will deliver 40 and 50 amps. Crimp terminals from USA or ****** can work to 40 amps. Terminal brands I find useable for my ebike battery are TE connectivity, Panduit, 3M, T&B, Ideal. Dorman at the auto supply...

I never take my bike to the shop for service. I do all my own service. I do not own a running motor vehicle. The bike transports everything, unless I have to rent a U-haul to move a piano or something. I hauled 2 10' lengths of gas pipe home from the hardware store Saturday. The one thing I...

Mahle was selling conversion kits from Switzerland in 2017. San Diego Ebike had them. Buy the time I saved up $2000 to buy one in 2018, they had been discontinued everywhere. China China China China China China China China. Or pedal yourself for 7 hours against a 38 mph headwind at 4 mph...
