Rocky Mountain Element Conversion

Speed would be the same. They both have the same RPM and voltage. Only the power will be different. I must admit, I like the idea of a lightweight bike with Q75 on the front and Q100 on the back.

Stop encouraging him Dave we all know what Cwah is mental sorry capable enough of doing. But you 2 must be members of the same club, youve both ended up ar** over t** using too much power

No pain, no gain!

Ahah yesterday I've seen a group of cyclist averaging easily 20-25mph and I suddently didn't feel very fast

Are you fully recovered from the tumble, d8veh ?

 

[Deleted member 4366]

Yes. It was on;y a flesh wound. Even Valentino Rossi has to crash sometimes.

Glad to hear it. My neck's still not right from getting intimately acquainted with that brick wall earlier in the year and the front 2 teeth still a bit loose .. takes a while sometimes I guess !

I'm still fascinated by this build.

How did you stick the battery box to the frame? Only via the 2 bottle holder screws?

There's front and rear bottle fixing studs, plus two little L brackets at the top from the suspension bolt. I'm not sure if they were on there when I took the photo.

 

[cwah]

ahah, of course, it looks so much cleaner without the brackets

I was thinking to use pipe clip for the triangle but they are definitely not a breeze to the eyes:

Same for the exhaust clamp I'm using for my brompton front bag:

It makes it so ugly
