well considering u pretty need a motorcycle to not have it fold your bike in half might also be a clue |
What made you say this? |
losing a battery from snapped ties:D |
Rear mounted battery flew off when I hit a bump in the road |
The battery is still fine the casing is just a bit *sanded down* |
People still shitting on them? Have there been new bad news since Rossman's case? Havent been following them |
it's the running meme of the server that I joined in on ever since I had to fix my giant battery from them |
I know and they deserve that, but im just wondering if theyre still bad or whether they actually fixed their shit |
Still bad |
Just the other day they had a pack with a pinched wire sending over 50v through the USB port |
Lmao |
Thankfully I got my UPP pack 4 years ago when they still were borderline acceptable |
Been abusing it daily, still going strong |
What I found out is that you’re basically at the mercy of the one assembling the pack |
There’s no QC |
And it’s a sweatshop so chances of them making mistakes are quite high |
yeah I mean my first battery from them had no issues (surprisingly given it's 3 wire BMS) |
still runs fine to this day in my first motorcycle |
second one was a shit show, seems they got worse over time |
probably had some employee turnover and mismanagement of cost reduction or something to make people build max speed |
pretty sad, bought a $40 bell brand tire for my ebike and it got a leak some how so now im stuck waiting and it has snowed which i cant ride in :Cope: |
@fellowleaf Get a patch kit. Also buy marathons, they stop pretty much all punctures |
lol about dat, this was the fourth time my tube got punctured so i road my bike like 500ft and the tube wrapped itself |
all the "self sealant" got all over the rear end of my bike |
i bought Continental Top Contact Winter II Premium 650B |
ill buy some marathons come summer |
surprisingly the same bell tire i had for the back is still surviving |
The sealant stinks as well |
I spilt it in my garage once |
epic |
glad it didn't do it my garage, already had a tube explode in my garage after fitting said shitty bell tire i guess the bead didnt seat |
i should have known the tire was crap |
Patch kit and extra tube. |
Thank you fellow neighbourhood resident for having zero spatial awareness and not stopping |
They left a gift |
Run the car DNA and find them |
I mean there's a decent chance they'll get caught considering they very very likely live here and are hiding their car in a garage rn with a completely ripped off side mirror |
it's a residential street in the middle of the neighbourhood, no reason to drive through unless you were coming/going to a home here |
damage to my car was destroyed hub cap (need a new set now, probably $45) and only the actual mirror cracked so $17 for that |
The paint is also messed up all along the side which is the biggest annoyance so if they find the dude maybe I get a new paint job |
That works out well |
Keep an eye out for eBay parcels in the coming weeks |
@Trenavix @Deleted User lol that was a non hinged mirror, hes gonna need that mirror back to repair it, or a huge body panel lol. |
People who hear "Crunch" and immediately think "WELP IM GLAD THAT WASENT ME HUCK HUCK" |
Yeah i hope the dude gets caught so instead of paying for a $500 paint job he'll pay for a $1000 hit and run charge and the paint job |
...and the cost of repairing his side mirror instead of having stopped and retrieved it.. |
He also destroyed his own hub cap on mine and left his own paint edged onto mine.. |
Id hand out pictures of the mirror to the local body shop |
'If owner found, please call...' |
bonus lol if you put up some signs for it. |
'Mirror found, if owner please call xyz for return of mirror' |
someone spun out their motor with a fake v1 arm which just bent |
@MeowOnDaGlock was this you again |
naw |
aint me |
i sheared a v1 tho |
That sucks. Sorry to hear. üò¶ |
How much power does it take to bend a v1? |
depends how tight your axle nuts are lol |
from what I have seen, it will bend at any power if your axle nuts lose all its torque and the torque arm is the only thing holding the axle |
I had built a 36 volt 750 watt rear hub kit on a steel frame walmart roadmaster with the v1 bracket and its held up fine for a few years |
The girl i ended up selling that bike uses it to commute to and from work every day was just wondering if its more a 48v+ thing or if wattage matters more |
Amps give you the torque needed to bend stuff. Voltage will give you speed. |
Depends how bad the clone is. from some to little. we don't recommend them for any power level. |
well, 2kw in a geared motor with stripped dropouts held fine till it spun and seized itself in, held nice after that |
So um this is a problem |
Get new sled |
Yea |
Which one in this called? |
Nvm found it |
Reenton |
Now time to find where it is sold |
Oof how'd that happen |
I have no idea |
For now imma just make new holes |
It happened on both sides too |
Now I'ma check my mount |
Since I ride a hard frame |
Man this sucks the only place I can find a replacement is grin and its 60$ after tax and ship |
:TiresomePepe: |
@StarTraki mean he doesnt need a new sled |
since the metal piece just rests ontop of it and screwing it in the bottle holder screws actually hodls it in place |
my sled isnt even screwed into the metal they just slid it under a plastic gap bit to stop it lifting upp |
its not gonna move once you just attach it back onto frame normally @fellowleaf |
Ight lol I put a couple new bolts in and electrical taped it |
I thought the metal piece was broken off |
But yeah |
Talk with @Chris Hall (TinaJunVRC) |
You might get a better shipping price for grin products this way |
nvm ur in Canada so probably not? |
Yea |
Buy a tripple bob while your at it, so it doesn't happen again |
(Also from grin) |
And a good torque arm if you don't already have one. also from grin |
now your shipping doesn't seem so bad after grabbing 3 things! |
grab a cycle analyist too if you don't have one. /semi s |
But yea. Tripple bob is basically made exactly because this happens occasionally, especially if you go offroad |
Who needs help? |
@Chris Hall (TinaJunVRC) lol. turns out guy was in canada anyhow but yea. |
O ok |
