    Brighter Headlight using existing wiring?

    Yeah that's a great idea to be honest. I have a couple of OLight (800 lumen I think) for my helmet and handle bars but I get sick of worrying about "did a charge the battery", "over the winter how do i store them", "did keeping them plugged in kill the battery now". I have a 900W 48v battery on...

    Brighter Headlight using existing wiring?

    Awesome Video! Thanks! This assumes your controller is powerful enough to support 2 lights. I do think that I like the idea of pulling directly form the battery so I get as many amps as I want (relatively speaking) I would use the existing light wire as a relay trigger to open the relay and let...

    Extreme 3.0 at The Hydrocut

    I took 30 seconds to go into a Burger King to pick up an order and as I was at the counter they picked it up and biked away with it. I thought because I could see it that it was safe.. I didnt have a lock with be me because a few days before I was at the Halloween Hydro Cut thing and I was...

    Extreme 3.0 at The Hydrocut

    Haha I remember you. I have my bike there and you started in on "You ebike people dont earn your rides..." I was with a friend that was like WTF man!! Then you pull out your Monte Capro form behind the poles and I knew what it was right away but my friend was like "He's coming over here" awm...

    Extreme 3.0 at The Hydrocut

    Honestly i had no issues at all with that bike in there on either side of the Hydro Cut. My old bike got stolen so i bought a dedicated mountain bike for the Hydro Cut I got a Trek Fuel EX5. And now I replace the old bike with a Volt Enduro 2022 model. just for commuting to work!

    Voltbike Enduro 2022 Unboxing and Review

    So far I'm really happy with it. it obviously doesn't have the performance of the m620 motor. noise wise, this motor is so much quieter!! It also could be because from what I hear it's got nylon gears in it and not metal. So far I'm really happy with this bike

    Brighter Headlight using existing wiring?

    So my headlight is built into my wiring harness. It's about a 40 lumen lamp standard $20 headlight they put on every ebike and is not very bright. Let's assume it's a 12v or 20v light, is it possible to upgrade this to like a 1500 lumen head light? I know it will draw more current but how do I...

    My 1000w motor journey and fear mongering by users of the forum!

    @AHicks That is a really great point!, and that is what the video I just posted is all about and it took me a bit to understand the title of it. Why would you want to train to be invisible? Would you not want to train to be visible? Well if you do all these great things to make you visible you...

    Wow that's a crazy story. Making eye contact can help but this lady probably though you were telling them they can go. They looked the other way then hit the gas and you were in front.. That must have hurt! Thanks for sharing!

    We need to stop blaming victims in bike theft!

    Yeah from what I understand form the BBSHD its all metal gearing inside so that is why it is so noisy compared to the 500w model that has nylon in it. I will be trying it to see but I am a bit torn for sure. I just wish you could put the BBSHD into some kind of PA level that the motor goes to...

    We need to stop blaming victims in bike theft!

    Yeah what's even worse is they were right 1000w (for me) was over kill and for my next bike I am going to be going to a 500w mid-drive. Please note i was coming form a single speed 500w hub motor which now I know is so different then a mid drive. The power ban on a hub is so different than 11...

    My 1000w motor journey and fear mongering by users of the forum!

    Thanks, It is hard to write something that is very opinioned and not try to be on my horse looking down at everyone like "I am better then you are". I feel like I make arguments because I can stand behind them and argue them with logic and not emotion. It's hard not to argue from a place of...

    We need to stop blaming victims in bike theft!

    The funniest part about this whole thread is it's not even about a pity party or anything like that but its what everyone focuses on because it's the easiest thing for them to understand and attack. It's about understanding what you mean when you ask questions. People pass judgment without even...
