    Encinitas City Council declares emergency for e-bikes, bicycles

    Does this emergency include electric boards and mono wheels? Those things can go crazy fast, significantly faster than e-bikes. And how do you trear mono wheels? There is no such thing like a regulal mono wheel, those wheels exist only in electric form.

    Encinitas City Council declares emergency for e-bikes, bicycles

    I commute on my 3000w ebike on this trail and I see no problem here with e-bikes. The biggest problem I had when I stopped in the middle of the trail to handle a flag to a bicyclust who dropped it on the trail and the acoustic bike ciclists behind me yelled on me to clear the way but they did...

    It is about 757 mm for RockShox Domain RC Suspension Fork part number 00.4020.707.006 It is about 35" from the ground to the top of the seat with lowered dropper post on 29" rims with 2.8" tires. If you consider to stay in that area it might not be possible because of the seat is going to be...

    Kindernay VII IGH and HYSEQ Onesie shifter

    You might want to tack weld an aluminum rod or tube to the plug to crank it out. You have to file the top of the plug to expose bare aluminum and you have to use microwelding technique to tack weld the rod in multiple spots and not to damage the housing of the gear hub. Then you can crank the...

    Bafang Ultra Recommended Chain

    I need all that power maybe 5-10% of my commute time to be able to keep up with 35 mph traffic. And maybe 70% of that power to keep up with 25 mph traffic about 15-20% of my commute time. I commute on my bicycle almost daily.

    Bafang Ultra Recommended Chain

    No. I'm running mid drive Bafang Ultra with 3000W 240Nm controller (the motor) paired with Kindernay VII gear hub (the gearing system). Bafang Ultra (the motor) connected with the gear hub (gearing system) with the chain. And all that 3000W power with 240Nm torque plus my legs push force go thru...

    Bafang Ultra Recommended Chain

    I use 44T standard Bafang steel chainring (the biggest the frame allows) and 14T Shimano steel 3/32" cog. I could use bigger cog but that would increase the stress on the gear hub I would like to avoid because of the gear hub is the most expensive part of the drivetrain.

    Bafang Ultra Recommended Chain

    I found that my Bafang starts destroying the chain before it is even stretched up to the 0.5 wear mark. What basically happens is it has so much torque it crushes the rollers of the chain. The chain is still fine according to the chain checker, but the rollers look deformed (squished) after just...

    Bafang Ultra Recommended Chain

    I think if you deal with high torque mid drive motors like Bafang Innotrace X1 the only option is to use heavy duty single speed chain with gear hub. KMC eCargo1 EPT also cached my attention. They claim it has "diamond durability" rating and 50% higher tensile strength comparing with industry...

    Has anyone tried single speed Izumi Chain V Super Toughness Track Chain (3/32" or 1/8") with internal gear hub? https://www.amazon.com/Izumi-Chain-Super-Toughness-Track/dp/B07YZSPBKN...

    Canada to restrict class 3 ebikes to 20mph

    From behind and from left side by traffic and from right side and from front by turning vehicles from traffic or from intersections. I was close to such situations multiple times and I saw such accidents. Now, when I have 3000W bike no way I'm gonna ride in the bike lane or on the side of the...

    Bafang Ultra motor and Rohloff 14spd speed hub on an Exess HP E-180 bike.

    I use Kindernay VII with 3000W Innotrace X1 motor. So far so good. Kindernay VII offers significantly higher gear ratio than Rohloff or Kindernay XIV and you can go crazy fast on Kindernay VII if you have powerful enough motor to crank this bad boy at higher gears. My Innotrace lost juses at 40...

    Canada to restrict class 3 ebikes to 20mph

    That sucks. That means more danger for bicyclists riding in the bicycle lanes or on the road shoulders along the roads where the speed limit is more than 20mph. It is safer to ride in the middle of the road with tfaffic at 35-40 mph than 20 mph in the bicycle lane or on the side of the road...

    Archon X1 Programming Thread (questions and experiences)

    Hey evixone, what plug is on your M620 motor and does your M620 motor have original power wires or thicker gauge wires for your 100A setup? When I ordered my 3000W Innotrace X1 motor I additionally purchased XT60 plug option from them but they sent me M620 motor with stock wires and stock plug...

    Archon X1 Programming Thread (questions and experiences)

    They set cut off voltage on the motor slightly lower than 0% on display to make sure you won't be in situation when your display gauge still shows some juice but the motor suddenly turns off.

    Archon X1 Programming Thread (questions and experiences)

    It might. The program might use that value to calculate how aggressively to reduce the power when the battery voltage is close to the cutoff level. Bigger capacity battery allows more power drain at lover voltage level while smaller capacity battery requires more aggressive power reduction at...
