well now its really a freewheel |
indeed it is |
üòÇ |
got a nice short there |
Like a little spider bite |
@void loop ( ) Doh! |
It shot sparks like 2 feet |
lol |
at least you got a show |
But yea. Zip ties not pipe clamps, less conductive üôÇ |
Would zip ties work good on the torque arm? |
Oh thats part of your torque arm? ah k üòõ Stick to metal there. |
Well still, secure the cables to things with zip ties.. and maybe consider that anti-abrasion covering that cars use |
(the cable jacket stuff) |
Movement is the enemy of wires |
45 zip ties |
Just kidding |
Electrical tape üòé |
Is this bent or just an optical illusion? |
are you sure your wheel doesn't need dishing |
*shrugs * |
when I got my wheel, it was completely out of true and needed dishing |
even without the mudguard, the tyre would hit the left side lol |
:0 |
fixed it by loosening the left spokes and tightening the right |
do you have a stand for the bike? |
first thing to check is if the wheel wobbles as it spins |
like side to side or up and down |
Not a fixed one |
Maybe I'll make something |
anything so you can jack the rear wheel up |
don't drop it lol |
Before I had it on bungee cords |
Is dishing frame or hub specific? |
Or does it vary |
I guess it varies based on the setup |
it's to do with spoke tension |
Sure |
I mean like |
the hub should be dead centre of the frame |
and the rim should be central of the hub |
Well |
The rim doesn't look very central |
It does handle slightly oddly sometimes |
I kinda hoped this would have been done from factory |
Naive once again |
Oops |
This is the wrong channel |
The thing is you have to be careful that you don’t over tighten spokes |
And that the spoke tension is roughly even for each side |
But it’s common for one side to be very different to the other |
Shall keep in mind |
yeah that seems to be dished the wrong way, maybe just built backwards |
measure the spokes from head to nipple on either side |
ima be taking my swingarm with the hub and rim to get it laced LOL |
be like " HERE LINE IT UP!" |
line it up string it up rawhide! |
So remember when I said that my freewheel is toast? |
No |
How would you have made one out of bread |
I'm relieved to find that it's perfectly fine and that it didn't break from only 1200w |
It must be so burnt and carbonized |
But also that the reason things were spinning and not going anywhere is because the threads on the hub are no more |
Quality Freewheel: 1 |
oh shit |
that looks wack |
Chinesium hub: 0 |
I'm fuckled |
Welp, I'd rather spend the money on building a new bike instead of fixing this piece of crap so new build it is then |
Fair enough |
Noooooo the frame is actually good. Suprisingly |
Meh. The bike just doesn't suit my needs :P If i'm going to start spending the big bucks, I'm gonna build what I initially set out to build, even though I can make this a nice fatty |
what u going for |
u could be like me, and force it to conform to your needs! *grinder and welding noises, maniacal laughter* |
going for broke apparently |
well the style bike frame and such dont exist, at least in a DIY way, the closest i found was the cheetah |
even then thats not full suz |
wish they had a full sus empty frame for this: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/0a/fd/ce/0afdce8f7566525bc3fa24c91784b5dc.jpg |
Just build it lol |
thats what im doin fam |
XD |
Epic |
Remember to not flash your controller to overdraw amps from battery |
im lucky the bms died probably fixable so got fets and resistors on way if not got a smart bms |
so BMS died and not the controller? |
well the controller was flashed with open firmware and i have a replacement on way since original was squarewave but nothing blew up in contrller and its still flashable via stlink |
im just glad my cells are all fine |
even better i wanted a hailong bms to replace original. |
the only guy selling it told me it wouldnt work unless i install fresh, then told me even if i installed fresh it wouldnt work as its different hardware in the case literally trying to refuse my purchase. |
Literally only difference was B0-B13 are backwards , so instead i have a newer bms with bluetooth/uart so i can track the cells better |
This sounds like something Clarkson would do... |
too true i was only drawing 20amps in a 30amp bms tho |
u channeled the clarkson energy for SPPPEEEEEEED |
@izy this is why I bought the 200A BMS for my 40A needs. Sometimes those chinese amps are kinda on the small side üòõ |
(that and it was like $5 more then the 40A BMS) |
if you get a bluetooth bms, it's always better to go overkill with the current rating |
then manually set the trip current |
Yea |
why? |
Safety margin and reusability. Like I'm going with a 400amp bms on the battery I'm getting. Probobly never gonna need it but if I wanna run dual drive hell ya I want that. |
