I've got €50 leather motorbike gloves, plenty of padding and protection.
Same but the gloves do help
My avg speed is 20kmh tho so idk
I found a road 5km away that should work for this, 2 lanes wide, not a bad surface, straight.
Ill have to wait till tomorrow, forgot to plug in the battery this morning
No worries.
Feel free to tag me again when you do it, just in case I miss it. :)
@StarTrak
Hold on WiFi is being a little shit about a 20MB upload
@NCC1941 @sgasgyxdd @EPHIIOS
Yikes
I don’t know what’s holding it in there
It completely separated
The seller wants pictures to send to their repair department
that definitely seems like a defect in the casting
It’s only been in use for 2 months
I'll give it a shot tonight with the battery on 60%, I just ate 3 burgers so I won't be able to go as hard as the other day though
I could go for a burger
Yeah that's definitely not a normal failure
How tight was the bottom bracket locknut? Wondering if it was turning in there and putting reaction torque where it shouldn't be. I'm looking at the scuffs on the motor casing
I used the included wrench and put it as tight as I’m capable of
oof
Maybe the pinion gear
Well I cut the power (thanks ebrake) as soon as I heard the grinding
It has to be a manufacturing defect if it broke in just two months wtf
I'm waiting to hear from the eBay seller and their "repair department"
Should have gotten the allstate offer when it was offered
@NCC1941 you won't fucking believe it
But my eggrider didn't record it
Got to 59.something
I'm wrecked, can't do it again
I have video
It just says 0 minutes
Is there any way to extract the lifetime files and get the info from that?
A rattling noise has also now developed in my battery
Happens to me too sometimes, id just redo it
It's raining and my battery is rattling, not gonna redo it today anyway
Could try again in a couple days
@sgasgyxdd if you want I can dm you the footage of it, not gonna send in this group, can't risk being doxxed
I had copyrighted music playing in the background I just realized, looks like youtube is gonna copyright strike me
they can also just take the revenue
Sure, you can dm it to me
Kinda funny how you trust me but idk
You dont have a triangle bag battery, right?
You're not a name I recognize from some other groups I'm in where it would be less ideal for people to know where I live
nope, Reention DP9
Yea, I dont think I'm in your country
I doubt you are
Cad it up and i can machine you a billet replacement
Yikes, that looks really broken
How did it happen? Was the support bracket on the other side installed, that should alleviate the stress on the area that was broken..
Looks like the other side snapped off from the pictures
Yup
It was
and it looks like it must have snapped off
dayum
best of luck getting it fixed üôÇ
I don’t think it can
I mean I don't know if they sell the cast without anything, but yeah
I would be a bit sceptical about the bolts that held the support bracket
I contacted the seller
They said they’d contact their repair department
Well the repair department will have something interesting to look at I guess
If not then oh well
At least I can pay in 4 on eBay again
I have a hub motor I can fall back on
I hate it
Time since last UPP fire
@NCC1941 ^
@StarTrak
Pinned a message.
Oof
Add that to the ?battery
I’ll just buy insurance for the next motor @hawken
unless they take responsibility though üôÇ
as others said could be a bad cast
Too high chinesium percentage
I hope so
Actually I was planning on getting a second middy for the schwinn @hawken
Speaks a lot about their chargers as well
Did you use a credit card?
No
Ebay GC
I wonder if eBay has a guarantee ü§î
What spec was the motor?
500w 36v but it routinely crept up to 1kw
So I'm thinking it's a 750w in disguise
Could be. Did you run it in low gear often or ever go into a higher gear?
The motor or the bikes drive train?
Drive train
Kept it in mid gears at all times
When you went from a stop did you often start mid gear?
Not blame questions, diagnosis questions.
I don't change gears unless the hill gets to be of the fuck off variety
All right in the future you might want to drive it like a manual transmission of a car
Stop, 1st, 2nd etc
If slowing down, down shift
I use the ebrake to shift when I do
I’m just wondering if the mid gear and not downshifting put a strain on it. No idea. Brainstorming.
Could be a lemon. No offense @Lemonizor üòÜ
