you can get single walled rims like yours ofc |
Ive been very rough on my rims and theyve held up well. |
yeah it valies but they prone to go out of true |
also now that your rim tape is broken it needs replaced entirely with the thick rubber type |
or its gonna puncture tubes |
My rear is very slightly wobbly but it hasnt changed at all since I got it |
Not related to the snapped valve? Im ok with the risk for now |
well the fact it moved enough to break it means you had clumping near valve |
and extra room to exand near where it was removed |
That broke it? holy shit |
probably resulted in bad seating of the tube itself |
also what size tyres are you using |
27.5 |
and whats the tube rated for |
yeah but tubes have a width rating |
Id have to check for that, I cba atm lol |
6am, I need to sleep |
5am |
7 almost |
9am |
Lol got 2 hours of sleep |
same lol |
@sgasgyxdd you been scamdoodled |
Wut |
What does this mean |
missold rim |
I wasnt told by anyone that its that, tjats just what I saw on their website |
Are they lying? |
looks like it but maybe you just have a potato camera |
I do hage a potato camera atm |
Idk if I want to take it apart again lol |
How can I test without taking the tire off? |
Don’t you have a carrera e bike? |
Carrera vulcan blue |
What power motor |
let the magic smoke out of my battery :( |
reversed the polarity (for less than a second), heard pops and saw smoke. The battery still has full voltage on output. Would you use it? |
no because bms is blown |
bms failed the task successfully |
the battery might be good however you need a new bms |
check wiring if you're able to reuse the signal wires it's less work |
thanks for the advice. I'll look for a drop-in BMS replacement so I can reuse the signal wires |
Balance wires are standard for like all bms' |
Reuse cells and swap bms, monitor carefully for a few weeks |
Man, had the chain break twice, put on a new chain on a casette that's done 5000 km and still going, started with minimal skipping and now the chain has worn in. |
A new cassette is coming tomorrow but am tempted to ride this chain till breaking as well |
i mean a cassette essentially shouldnt last that long |
especially on a mid drive |
Hey, I's running lovely now |
I'm all about the LinkGlide now |
im replacing a chain once a month or so basically |
then a cassette every 3 months or so |
on LG |
I think I'd still be ridin the old chain if it wasn't for snow and salt |
how much do you ride a month ? |
i am doing like 1000miles+ a month tho |
I'm doing like 850 - 950 a month |
on a bbshd |
regardless the LG chain is kinda trash |
and expensive |
i just went with an sram chain since they cheaper |
16 euro is pretty cheap for a 10/11 speed chain |
thr LG chain is £30 here |
Oh |
I'm in the EU and buying from germany |
I'm gonna be putting 120 euro towards a blingring tomorrow |
an sram pc1130 is noticeable cheaper , its at its most expensive atm at £20 |
its usually like 15 |
Ah that's fair then |
the sram x1 11 speed is £12 atm |
How many teeth? |
honestly the chinese ones are perfectly fine at a fraction of the price |
and work with 11 speed though it needs some wearing to be smooth on chain since tolerances can be tight at 11 speed, even worse if its shimano chain due to their weird sizings |
10 speed and lower straight up works |
blingring is mainly if you want 12 speed |
42 |
I'm perfectly happy tp send my money to New Zealand over China |
I also got a Czech made shift sensor at double the price over a Chineze made one |
show us it |
https://gearsensor.com/products |
also you say that but when a lekkie blingring 42t costs £120+ |
when an identical chainring on alie made from the exact same materials for 1/3rd of the cost it adds up |
also that gear sensor is a joke of a price |
£50 yeesh |
I paid €32 euro |
UK sellers have it £45-55 |
on their own reseller listt |
Plus like I said, I'm more than happy to support non-chinese manufacturing |
yeah gotta support that non chinese manufacturing |
for your specifically chinese manufactured , designed and owned mid drive |
Hey man, when I got the motor I got it second hand and locally |
?volts |
?volt |
My front fender left the chat.. |
Something I'm curious about, has anyone here ever tried cannibalising a broken hoverboard for their motor and powering an eBike with it? Those hoverboard motors are meant to direct drive a person, so they should be pretty powerful? |
And broken hoverboards are fairly cheap, much cheaper than usual motors on ebay |
Yes, plenty of people have already done so. |
