    New 2017 GNG Ultralight mid-drive kit.

    24v though Unusual but if it provides the riding experience it allows for a roughy 50% reduction in battery size/weight for a given aH and cell type

    So You Can Thumb Throttle A Mid Drive? (Proflex Animal Build)

    Crank drives are great for many reasons but they feel very different to a hub If at all possible do try to test one. You may find it doesn't suit you as well as a hub with your leg disability. Or you may find it vastly superior! I only mean to highlight the very different input/feel

    24V to 36V ?

    I think putting a 36v battery on a 24v cyxlomatic is fairly tried and tested without issue Yes there are risks, mostly to the controller, but these are very cheap to replace. And you could do so with a 36v controller I have overvolted plenty of 36v motors, I have blown the odd controller but...

    Insulting Message from 50 Cycles

    Scott , you acted in extreme haste based on a message you received. Instead of fact checking first. A mouth before brain moment .....we have all done it. We are emotional beings However , once overwhelming evidence has been produced to show that d8veh is not the anti 50c monster......you...

    Cycle Commute below zero?

    As a person with a severe immune disorder I wear powderless vinyl gloves all the time (i go through at least 20 pairs a day) In the summer it's awful. But I love it in winter. No matter what gloves I used before my immune system went mental I'd get cold wet hands .....eventually Put a pair of...

    Hobby king multi star on offer

    You can But....it isn't a great idea unless you plan to use a small amount of capacity before recharging You'll quickly end up killing the lower 10ah pack otherwise I have a 5200mah 4s and a 6600 mah 6s I do series them for a stealth,local,runaround, occasional pack. But it's very apparent...

    Lightweight bike - Sparrow Ti

    This is exactly what I had in mind after your similar advice on my titanium and carbon road build. Out of interest would you use a 36v q100 ? Or 48v And what controller ?

    Bicycle sidecar

    Not had any time and still considering design for side car. No building as yet then... But given my brothers vw campervan business I'm thinking of building a campervan styled carriage. Could even be as lazy as building a box and simply skinning it with one of these...
