Change of plan:oops::rolleyes: managed to find a delta style with a rear diff :D mid drive build 2 here we go o_O

I want to try one of these on the next build ,but the max current is listed at only 15 amps good for battery life but what about the actual ride can only find reviews in the US :confused::rolleyes: Have any of you tried one or do i stick with what i know BBS02;) It is not a cost thing only...

Bought 3 saddles two trekking 1 mtb only £7.99 each great comfort

It has anti turn washers the wheel has never come loose but the chain is never quite right this is my fourth alfine bike over the last 10 years take it from me this solves chain problems the only time you touch the chain is to replace it after thousands of miles other than a drop of oil first...

That's not a derailleur it is an alfine chain tensioner , takes the whip out of the chain under power and makes sure the tension is always correct saves the need for chain adjusters also helps front chain wheel alignment and enables a quick swap down to a 36 front if required it is a hand built...

Got bored and looked round the garage at the left over bits from the winters :mad: builds Found the odd new alfine 8 and a 21ah battery ;) and a mid drive a suspension seat post

Just gone to its new home:D:( now can think about mk2 with a mid drive yum yum:rolleyes: just got the head tubes machined to take bearings need a steel frame to cut and shut :eek:

bbs02 anti rotation on a specialized camber took less than a hour to make 2 rivnuts driiled into the frame

The battery load stress on the cheap laptop style chargers does not help or no glue on the v adjustment pot when it was tweaked

I agree but we get what we pay for with the bbs a basic mid drive with no frills :) but once you learn a few howto tricks and do simple adjustments it comes to life more smiles per pound

The bbs01/2 or hd are far more than just a scooter drive with up to 9 variable power levels and you can adjust the pedal assist for as much or as little assistance as you want. Adjustment are made quickly on a laptop fitting is a day or less the smiles last much longer Still not fitted a...

I doubt that any front drive trike will go up a very steep pebble drive I have just finished a trike with a 28 inch 700c front drive this copes with brick pavers ok Nearly all trikes are front drive due to the problem of rear drive and corners without a rear diff [ a major cost or a lot extra...

Welcome to the self build club nothing beats that I built that feeling :)love the blue cable ties

I changed the front forks on a trike so I could fit a disc on the front if the chain is driven on a free wheel I have an adaptor that allows a rear disc to be fitted and the free wheel refitted but a band brake if adjusted correctly should work my guess is oil or other contamination a good...

Can you post a picture of the brake and its mountings might be able to do something

It only takes a bit of practise once you do a few builds, you cannot walk past a normal bike without thinking will a motor fit does the battery go in that gap. The best thing was the build only took a day and all worked to out first go

Before I moved to hub gears , I found the sram x9 was very sturdy and value for money have not used the x10 I wonder what Electron cycles use or Luna cycles recommend

The thing comes to life on a loose or wet surface very low surface area very little footprint less damage barley leaves a tyre track used like an atv can go into areas which motor vehicles are banned the front does not wash out plus when you stop it stays upright the plan was an off road...
