    Super 73 RX battery insides

    Hi Been gifted a dead super 73 rx pack. The bms , highly propriety, is dead but cells are pretty new samsung 21700 50e (x 52 cells) Never seen 6 pins on battery before nor such a long slim BMS I'm going to tear down the 13s 4p config and rebuild with as 10s 5p pack for my 36v bbs02 plus a...

    I may never bother to pedal again ;-)

    How nice to see a many years later update! As for your next bike. If you want move away from the an mtb then a hybrid frame will generally have more relaxed geometry than a gravel designed for drop bars. I always like the look of the Genesis Smithfield with twin toptube as good candidate (but...

    E BIKE KIT to road bike ?

    I would agree with others, don't put a mid drive on a carbon frame. Plus the battery weight point. Tbh, whilst you can convert carbon bikes i generally don't see the point. Once it's electrified the super light carbon roadie USP is negated

    Quick range update. 14 miles on the easy flat and no wind. A comfy 10 with mild hill and a bit of wind. Generally i sit in pas4 of 5. 5 is bit faster than top gear with a full battery. After a few miles it feels better in pas5 as the voltage on the pack come down a bit. Very happy with...

    So the the kit is on and battery built. Didn't go remotely how i had planned in my head. Mostly due to wiring lengths and controller being bigger than i thought . So basically I've chucked it on for now with bits and bobs i had in the shed. The controller will move into the triangle when I've...

    Oh, I've never had an issue with daly. Quite the opposite . I've used 3 (4 inc this build) , no issues and been running for years. The oldest pack is a good 6 years old which i gave to a friend amd he uses regularly still. However a quick check online shows a pretty ropey reputation so i guess...

    That's kind but I'll bow out now I've decided I'm not going to risk the unknown controller especially as 12a. Going to go with woosh kit so nothing to be learned for the forum there I'm afraid. It's ook like the dahon peter shows

    I think the phrase you were looking for was oh yes, sorry I misread or misunderstood. Rather than ignoring the cell point which I hadn't made and then trying to needlessly hack around the dynamo point Its just oddly aggressive and simply odd behaviour to me and 'm reminded why I stopped coming...

    Hi saneagle Thanks but you misread/misunderstand my post. I will be using 5.3ah 21700 cells with 30a rating. Sag no issue on 12a controller I've no plans at all do anything like you say with a dynamo. I said I have a factory fitted dynamo hub so when I lose the wheel that contains it the...

    It'd fit but I'd have to drill an exit route and that doesn't appeal at all !

    Thanks I did see that but he used a different motor from either that I'm proposing and different controller. I appreciate he has reduced the weight in many other areas. I don't propose that as budget doesn't allow for that level of fettling I guess I'm asking for views on the motors and the...

    I'm in two minds and going for the forums opinions. Please bear with the precie! Electrifying a m3l brompton with dynamo setup (factory installed) So it's a front motor and losing the dynamo sadly. At least the loss of of the dynamo hub will slightly offset the weight of the motor Weight is...

    "Gouach Infinite Battery, The Only E-Bike Battery You'll Ever Need"

    I totally agree, slightly flippant post on my behalf. I've a welder , can and have sourced cellss, hl cases and just built my own. The value for me is not in the weldless solution nor the fire resistance. Its all about the claim to have reverse engineered bosch so t plays nicely. It's that...

    "Gouach Infinite Battery, The Only E-Bike Battery You'll Ever Need"

    Well I do hope you are right. Still I just couldn't pull the trigger on a 200 euro case with bms and charger (no cells) For me the whole thing didn't pass the sniff test in the end. Happy to wait and see, if it all works out and , crucially, it does play nicely with bosch systems I'll pay the...

    I'll surely update...if I can If I only get one hour to use my discount I won't buy. I simply cannot be online then (I'll be in an aeroplane above Europe somewhere!) However, the sniff test isnt being past for me. It's starting to feel like an scam. Folk are minded to go with and belive in...
