    Cannot allow my hobby to burn down my home

    About the only thing that would withstand a battery fire is a kiln. Ultimately, the boxes sold and the likes of what was built by the OP is to stop the explosion of fire from spreading.

    So what's your other hobbies or interests?

    I tend to have too many hobbies, and clearly not enough space to enjoy them! Here's the garage with the slot car track my wife and I made - she helped with all the landscaping. I made everything except the actual track. With that comes the airbrush station to paint my own car bodies, and a...

    Aventure Bottom Bracket change...

    Yeah, I'm on a mission... I need to know what it is! I have some of the tools, the 16mm 1/2" drive hex socket should arrive tomorrow that'll allow me to remove the crank. I'll take pics and post what I find for sure. I haven't been able to find anywhere on the internet, what BB is installed on...

    Charging Connector for Aventure?

    The pictures on the website show 2 different chargers. The charger that came with my Aventure does not have ventilation slits in the case like some of the pictures. I was planning on removing the power supply from the case and inserting into a better case with airflow and a fan... I wonder if...

    It's a FourE's mini vortex mixer that I use to shake airbrush paint bottles.

    Show Us a Tool

    This is the extent of my tool collection... 95% of it fits into those Craftsman chests. The most used item is probably the alien looking white thing with a green head under the spray booth.

    Aventure Bottom Bracket change...

    Well, as it turns out, and based on the views with no responses, I seem to be the first one attempting to do this. I'm learning a ton about bottom brackets and spindles and crank sets. I do know the unit is a 100mm. Once I remove it I'll know if its an English style or press fit.

    Hello all - new e-biker here

    Thanks for the welcome! I've checked out your bike before I joined, Jason, you've done some recent mods that look nice. I think I'm going to switch gears on what to change out first. It's going to be the neck and handlebars. Because this ebike is for pleasure only, it's all about quality bling...

    Aventure Bottom Bracket change...

    I'm on a quest to change out the BB and the cranks for better quality ones. There's only one problem - I don't know what I need! Well, I know I need the special tool to remove the nut on the drive side of the crank, but beyond that, what should I be looking for in a BB? Has anyone done this...

    Charging Connector for Aventure?

    The connector is not a "proprietary" one. Do you have to be resourceful to get one, of course, but like most medical grade and automobile harness connectors it's going to take a little work to find unless you're in the industry. For example, here's a source of the connector, made by Higo.

    Charging Connector for Aventure?

    I kind'of read through the thread, but got lost somewhere along the way. Is all this "madness" I'm reading about how the stock Aventon battery charger can only be used to charge the battery - no other charger can charge it? If that's the case, I don't understand where the issue is - just buy...

    Aventure Pedal Grounds Out On A Turn

    I'm currently looking to change out my entire crank, and put 152mm or so arms on. My issue is I want something that looks the part, not something that looks like it was poured in someones garage! Can anyone suggest some nice looking ones that are 152 or so mm?

    Experiences with Aventon customer service and support?

    Which size and color did you purchase? I ordered my Aventure on May 8, a Large frame in Camo Green and it was not available. The website stated it could be available June 6. I received an email shipping notice on June 2 and it arrived on the 3rd. Out of the box and put together without an issue...

    Hello all - new e-biker here

    I just received my Aventon Aventure in camo green and I'm loving it! It's my first e-bike and it's a well built piece of machinery for the price. Are there items I'm going to change, of course! I already changed the pedals and seat (not shown in these pics). Next is the entire crank and gear...

    Hi... a newbie here... searched & found this great site. A 73-year-old Southern California man.

    I'm new here as well, welcome @SunTimeOne - and I'm also in SoCal! To answer your question, I think you're looking for something like this. The real question is - what voltage does the battery in the trike need to be charged at? The wall outlet is 120V 15A. Is there a charging pack that comes...
