Is is a bad idea to use aluminium together with stainless steel? I intend to use aluminium sheet metal to mount the stainless torque arm to the fork. I guess...
Aluminum and stainless steel shouldn't be a problem, especially if you are using a corrosion inhibiter on the aluminum, stainless steel doesn't react with...
In the name of not beating the subject to death like Randy's volcano ride, let's just say that I was a sucker at age 16 and did just this like the vast...
I would be saddened as well, but it is what would happen. Maybe the politicians can add yet another dollar to the federal cigarette tax in order to make the...
Joshua, Don clearly stated that the trike would be able to cruise at 35mph on the flat. Operated this way, it is NOT primarily human powered. Robbie...
Well that's a different story. I never plead guilty and always go to court myself when I get a traffic violation because the prosecutor always cuts you a...
Why do you bother to describe something that makes no sense with terms you don't even understand? "You'd need a motor with a Kv 1/9.33 as large as the Cyclone...
When you can apply direct power to the wheel from the motor and run your pedal power directly to the wheel through your derailleur the wheel is the common...
For a direct drive Crank Motor to work well It would have to be the size of a x-lite with a high turn winding. The motor would need to be made with stronger...
Such wording forces people that don't like getting wet 50% of the time to own/operate/maintain a 2000lb+ beheamoth car. Carefully construed to be sure. LOL ...
Randy, you're suprisingly lucid today! Haven't been to your *garden* yet I assume? The only comment I have is that you shouldn't talk so disrespectively to...
If you're spinning it is primarily a HPV because how can the Police determine that 35 mph is not human effort? This is where you explain to the Police that you...
I graduated from High School just before I turned 15 and my Grandmother said she would buy me any model of Car or MC I wanted as a present. My first choice was...
... Well 8-20 amps at 12V, intermittently, depending on how efficient the motor is, plus whatever the rotor needed to get the Kv down to that level. I like the...
Hi, I think you'll enjoy this article: http://springwise.com/transportation/cycle2city/ Don Harmon [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
... If the Cyclone motor produces 3000 rpm at 24 volts, then one can conclude that its Kv is 3000/24 = 125 rpm/volt. If the goal is to reduce this by 9.33,...
Maybe this is what Randy always needs to do? LOL Let's set him up with someone with multidimensional perspective, good grammar, and manners. LOL Robbie...
Seems someone walked away with my e-bike a few hours ago. Hope they enjoy cutting off the Kryptonite U lock. Luckily I brought up my brand new 48V Ni-CD pack...
... Yep. Sadly, even such a modest and sane personal vehicle as Don's doesn't fit into the electric bicycle, motorized bicycle, moped, or NEV categories which...
Yeah as people lose their jobs the need to steal takes over. Tomorrow the trike gets an alarm installed although it would be almost worth it to see someone...
And from what I heard about the hell Twike owners in this country went through, I think I'd abandone the project before commiting hard cash. Too bad really....
