Wren, those 2 set screws in the 12 tooth pulley need detents in the shaft of the motor to lock into. The shaft of the motor is most likely chrome-vanadium, which is much harder than the set screws. Process: build it so that everything is in place, tighten the set screws so that they contact the shaft and hopefully leave witness marks on the shaft of where you need to grind with a dremel, will a location for the set screws to lock into and prevent the issue.

I'm so pissed that they don't tell you how they solve the issue of the regenerative braking!

[@netstrider12]

Agreed

[@mrpovpov298]

It's not regenerative braking , it's just normal braking. The ESC has a feature to brake when you let off the throttle. It has this feature because that ESC is normally used on remote controlled aircraft. Now the fix to this is really simple you just program the ESC . And the programming does not involve any coding or anything it's just done directly on the ESC . You'll hear a sequence of beeps from the ESC which will let you know what setting it's at and you just select your preferred requirements using the throttle as a navigation tool . This fix literally takes like 5 seconds so that's probably why he didn't include it in the video.

ESC is also used on RC cars

Some VERY basic engineering problems that could have been solved in minutes took 2 weeks to sort out? REALLY!?

[@FloppaClown]

It took weeks because he had to buy new parts.

Wren: "look at cmike riding the onewheel like a pro!" Cmike: (smiles) little did you know......

[@WilliamCadiz]

0:25 Every time I watch this I expect Wren to say, "but kinda the same" especially because he's talking about a bike

[@hipfire1920]

I love how he put a Tesla Logo on the BiKe

[@inessa8332]

I believe wren's reaction to cmike falling would be that of a scared puppy

Wife: "I work in a hospital from 7am to 7pm" Wren: "I goof off at work all day making cool FX videos and critiquing FX in movies"

I love using PLA, but here in southern California, I can only use PLA for indoor climate controlled parts. I made bicycle parts before (water bottle cage, etc.) From PLA and it ended up warping from the heat on a hot day. Above 110F, not recommended.

This is like one of Adam Savage's one day builds

[@ksng767]

Except that Wren actually reads and acknowledges youtube comments and respects youtube as a whole.

[@exomute]

KS Ng true

[@ElEscolta]

I mean, to be fair, Wren is like, what? 2 generation after Adam, hes more accostumed to it that him. Also, Adam do read comments, but not on youtube.

[@SirWrender]

I don't really think that's fair to Adam, to be honest. His company has a huge youtube channel that makes great content. He's just from a world of TV. But I think he's embraced YT way better than most celebrities.

[@ksng767]

Wren I cannot agree with you, the fact that you're even willing to reply to my post which you disagree with, puts you way beyond Adam as a youtuber. All the respect I've lost for Adam now goes to youtubers like you. I don't think our comments here are the worst things on the internet, which is an idea Adam is adamant with, he has stated many times that youtube comments are the worst and he will never ever reply to them, not even on his own channel.

[@teek765]

Did anyone else notice that Wren was wearing a VSauce shirt at the end?

[@Sayuri-cr8cy]

The This Channel YES

[@DJHise]

And a black Oculus Rift shirt prior to that.

Next MOD would be to design a way to recharge the battery while pedaling? :)~

[@nostromov7892]

And regenerative breaking, it can add -like- 3, 5, 7% or whatever, depending. Funny thing is when I see $7000 bikes without it (there are many and people actually buy them, LOL).

[@ryanakers1372]

Wonder if something like a car alternator could be added to the front wheel to charge the battery while the bike is in motion.

[@thinkdunson]

they call that regenerative braking, and they call it that because it adds a large amount of resistance. so the bike would be way too hard to pedal, and no one would use it. the only time you might use it would be if you were going downhill or coasting to a stop... so if there was a switch on the bars that would let you turn regen on and off, that could be cool. but like the other dude said, it adds a very tiny amount to total run time; so using it on and off like that would give you very very little regeneration. in other words, not worth the trouble.

[@nostromov7892]

A (large) loss to heat and in the conversion process (back to battery), unfortunately! What to do. :f

[@bradhaines3142]

@@thinkdunson it is if you wire the regenerative brakes to the brakes, otherwise it would only make it inefficient

[@giliant]

So much love, love Wren builds.
