Congratulations for building a bike that finished so well! What sort of battery consumption rate was your rider experiencing? When you say fault, the bike was having issues or the rider crashed, etc? The race format is sort of confusing as far as what each round entailed and how long the laps...

What size manufacturing facility do they have, labor force, raw materials etc? 5.2 million cells available? I don't have a good grasp of the actual scale of this but this seems huge. I wonder how many bikes have been manufactured en toto by some of the established yet niche european...

Yes rainchecks all around. I'll try to keep updating these. usually 4 rides a year. spring and fall

https://tennesseeknockoutenduro.com/hart-tops-lettenbichler-at-red-bull-tennessee-knockout-mario-roman-rounds-out-the-podium/ Article lists the top 3 electrics and a little about the xe4. Two EM bikes on the podium. Probably makes sense in that the venue is the Trial training Center. Tucker...

New offroad date for next month is 9-24-22. snydes, it's been 2 years?! We have put in a few new sections or bypasses since then. I'll get there on friday and leave sunday, as usual.

Hey it took some balls to show up and race, sorry i couldnt join you! No shame in being knocked out at a race called the knock out. It sounds like the electric class was mostly a success and something to build upon. Look forward to any further debriefing and videos, etc. Obviously, traction...

i though he looked different but maybe tucker did win the race? cant find any results coverage

just a guess looking at the winners pic. Winner rode an EM trials bike and might be someone noteable? 2nd is as described by doncox and third, i;m not sure but Tucker neary stated that whoever beat him would get an electricbikerider tee shirt. cant wait to get more feedback etc

Is there any restriction regarding what you can or cannot leave parked in the employee lot? Charging at work is the best solution. The ride will be way more fun if you can ride your motorcycle like a motorcycle

Well that video isn't me! Some of the rock gardens look pretty rough for a light bee so maybe all those entrants are hard enduro veterans who happen to have a light bee. As for riding my alta, i can imagine that any place sort of difficult is going to be clogged with stuck dirtbikes which...

kickstart yz lugs pretty well. Lots of rocks

What will the course actually look like? Is Mr perronaud a member here? I think he's the organizer and I saw a video of him recently showing his alta to motocross action magazine?

I was assuming that customer #1 would be the first one to get a bike. The whole estimated date of delivery seems sort of arbitrary, misleading and optimistic. are the bikes being shipped to individuals or dealers? Are the bikes assembled? Does delivery mean to the loading dock in Spain or...

Cell wraps are the same color as molicels. The way they cut the top of the cell wrap away is sort of scary but cool

For sustained high speed runs on a highway or a dry lakebed, the consumption rate would go way up. I think the gear reduction ratios are going to determine the topspeed rather than lack of horsepower but at high rpm, the motor is going to be fighting itself in field weakening and gobbling...

I think a dead cell is sometimes altered internally with structural breakdown etc. /harmless at 0 volts but could get hot if you try to recharge it. Is there any physical evidence incriminating one cell out of the 5 as to which is the bad cell? Swollen or bulging top, discoloration, soot etc...

If you have a p group at 0 volts, the cell that failed must have shorted internally or the p group shorted as a unit, like with water damage or a loose screw inside the case. I'm not sure if a componet on the circuit board could have shorted the whole group but whatever happened, things must...

I had an idea about a connection scheme that might make individual cell replacement doable but I guess its a dead end if 1. premature cell failure rates are very low 2. anticipated improvement in cell performance in a given cell format is unlikely 2 failures from premature cell death out of...

Assuming cells are sturdily connected, what rate of cell failure would you predict in a heavy use scenario like the Stark claims it can withstand? Are cells in the Stark more or less likely to be stressed than those in an Alta (or Tesla)? Were there many instances of Alta (or Tesla for that...

Nice pics of your copper. I'm pretty sure Stark is connecting both + and - on the same end of the cell. The negative end is sitting in a pocket in the magnesium case so no connections possible on that end, i'm assuming.
