I actually something similar except I mounted my battery on a rear rack lmao. Not sure if that’s a great idea or not. I just don’t want that rack to snap off or some shiet. I also have bungee cords wrapped the battery in a way that it holds the battery on the rack. And another bungee to hold the battery in the case if the rack snaps off suddenly.
@hightech-lowlife2 жыл бұрын
Thanks man! Rear rack should be fine! I only don't like that position because you already have all of the weight in the back with the motor, but aside from that it's an easy way to add a spot for the battery 👍Bungee cords should be fine for mounting, the stretchiness can quiet down rattles too.

never use slime at 32+ mph. Your tire will have slight up down up down wobble. Ounces can turn to pounds when wheel spins at high speeds. Take a paper clip and string with small weight. tape string to surface and spin very fast then let go. the weight will rip tape off due to centrifugal force multiplication. Amount of slime = off balance weight.

@@itwasrightthereinfrontofyou I have moved on from slime as it doesn't work as well as I'd like, now I use vinyl inserts. Although I've never had a problem with slime regarding hop/wobble/obtuse concentricity even at high speeds. I don't go very fast though on ebikes (20-30 max), most bicycle tires are not made to even go that fast, let alone double 👍 If I want to go really fast I have motorcycles for that.

I have a 52v 1800w motor rear with a 80cc engine on a electra cruiser frame called the red sonja. She is sturdy and cruises at 55 mph with HD bearings. She use to wobble with slime at 30-40mph. Safe vehicle as she is made of 100% German steel. The lining does work great...without it I feel naked. A standard bicycle rim is rated at speeds of 100 kmh. HD bearings double. UHD or Moto wheels triple and more. I pack my bearings with red grease as white or moly "fling" out at high speeds. Red Grease does not as it is the stickiest grease. I do things like this because i have my own shop and build whatever I want. I even build motorcycles. My current project is a ebike that has 96v 12000 watt. IDK what i want to really do with it. @@hightech-lowlife

Never would have imagined haha, I keep calling these 'friction' brakes but I think they are rim brakes, or 'caliper' brakes more specifically. I remember as a kid these did not work very well, probably because I was going down hills in the rain, but I can attest that they actually work surprisingly well. Maybe just because I'm bigger and can squeeze the levers so much more. Thanks for the suggestion I'll check out a hydro setup!

@hightech-lowlife2 жыл бұрын
@@Full_Throttle_no_Brakes These packs (and others) that are 18650 cells are typically made from Lithium Polymer (LiPo), this has to do with the material chemistry of the battery. I know that these packs are LiPo, as most that contain 18650 cells are. Of course there are different grades available that can focus more on discharge rate (C) or high capacity (mAH). Also varying degrees of quality, these packs are shown to have Samsung cells. I took a look at those packs you use and I'm not sure if they have an onboard BMS for over and undervolt protection during charge or discharge. A lot of RC packs do not have BMS's built in because they have a separate speed controllers and chargers that will do that.
