Like that is cool and all ($600 things..) but Im'a just stick with my $20 chains and cassettes that keep wearing out |
Would love to make some kinda 3 speed transmission... |
and switch to BMX/motorcycle chain |
would last sooo long |
I mean..... U could make a 3 speed sprocket stack |
And use a 3 speed derailler |
Ok but then you still need multispeed chain |
and that stuff wears quick |
Any place that makes custom sprockets I wonder |
Maybe I could make something like my lawnmower transmission |
And kind of find it funny that there isn't one on the market yet like we we're talking about |
bascially, th ey just use 3 constant meshing gears, then the shaft has splines, and these 'forks' are moved back and forth in the spline |
the forks have little tips that 'pick' a gear |
Wouldn't be that hard to make if you just took a lawnermower transmission apart for the parts heh.. |
btw that chain is actually reverse lol. |
Igh run similar right ? |
Yet expensive |
I feel like the right kinda chain/sprocket would be between a bicycle and a dirt bike |
Which might not exist |
those little e-motorcycle chains |
5 speed derailleur modded to use 3 spees |
can't recall the number, but its same or finer pitch as bicycle chain, but thicc |
#41 |
VS 410 |
VS 415 |
410 is bike, #41 is the heavy version |
ah no, #35 |
top chain |
2nd from top I think is multispeed bike |
or BMX |
they use that #35 so they can put TINYYYY sprockets on the motor lol |
and just slap like a 40~60 tooth sprocket on the rear (without it being like 20") |
LOL theres #25 too apparently. |
babychain |
A strong one of these , might be a good idea too |
Just use a sprocket mounted freewheel. |
This way u can swap ratios as needed. And u get a heavy duty freewheel. It's what cyclone and some other externally driven middrives use |
Seems like a good idea thanks |
http://electricscooterparts.com/ |
Any examples of sprocket that fit with it |
These guys have the freewheels and sprockets |
Even do custom ones |
Sweet! |
It's where I get all my sprockets |
I think this could the beginning of solving that long time problem |
That's how cyclone uses one of those. Silver chain is from motor to chain wheel. Black chain is chain wheel to rear cassette |
Btw, you only need one sprocket that 'fits', the outer one |
So it basically takes most all the load |
the rest can be regular sprockets, bolted with regular sprocket spacers |
using the big holes in the sprocket |
Depends on power level. New bike is gonna be like 3 different bolt ups |
Lol |
its actually a 5 bolt pattern at.. 104? I think? |
wait wtf that one has 9 holes... |
Not quite the right sprocket I guess lol |
It's a disc brake moubted/rag joint/hub clamp sprocket |
It's saying it's for a fixie bike |
Uses one of these, or a spoke ripper |
what in the lol. |
It's for a cheap gas bike |
thats an.. alternative isntall lol |
Standard hub clamp |
Pretty sure the bent plate goes on the other side and it normally uses longer cranks? |
So no peddling backwards |
No I mean the cyclone |
ahh |
Bb is a wierd width |
Wouldn't fit with normal. Mounting |
Thus the spacer and swapped plates |
Same thing when I had the bbshd |
It's like 111mm width bb |
Mine? If u mean the cyclone it freewheels. If u mean the new bike? Yeah u can pedal backwards. The system uses the same as the cyclone, just bigger. Pedals don't have to spin. |
no 219? |
I meant the this |
This |
It's mounted to the bike hub |
Makes it fixed gear. Let's u regen on a middrive. |
Spoke rippers, for when you really don't need those pesky spoke things anyway. |
its the new style to have your tire do the worm |
U can still peddle backwards cause the pedals are attached to a freewheel directly like the cyclone pic |
what is this for? |
adding a sprocket to a wheel? |
or to get rid of the freewheel |
Yeah |
Adding to a wheel |
Just showing options |
why not do what i did |
flip the wheel |
so the brake disc mount is on the other side |
Cause he isn't using regeb |
then remove the casette and use a brake rotor adapter |
lol then whats it matter |
That's why I told him the freewheel sprocket mount system. Easy to use |
Still needs functioning disc brake, I'd assume |
thats what the disc brake adapter is for |
you still get a disc brake |
though my regen is enough to stop my bike so i dont use the brakes |
A freewheel to disc brake adapter exists. Since the wheel is flipped it would tighten on the hub as u brake. In theory. Dunno if I'd trust it not to sheer the threads off eventually. Since Mark, and me, will be using regen Tru the middrive it's just a backup brake. |
Ah gotcha |
So how would Regen work on bbshd |
