Can you use the rear brake to dampen the bikes enthusiasm? LHRB?

Last night was I think a new episode featuring EvWest electric car conversions. Impressive shop, I thought. In the background you will see the Alta banner on the wall and a pair of Alta bikes lurking. Maybe our AOF member from there was shown on tv?????. I just stumbled upon it but it...

45-50 miles on knobbies is the most i have seen so far, not bad! I was riding with a group of trials bikes and I think that I had the pace that could actually deliver the mythical 4 hours of singletrack riding i had read about.

The tiny wires look like they were dolloped with hot glue. This cant be the actual electrical connection, rather its a reinforcement effort? Just thinking out loud if there was an additional way to make the ALta battery wirebonds more secure in light of what i understand about code 36 failures

I have a few projects brewing and this is part of a couple of them. I'm using these prismatic cells and I need to divide and combine the packs to suit different bike layouts. Does it look like the thick busbars are laser welded or some other process? Are the tiny bms wires fuse bonded like...

For some reason I picked up another basketcase bike, A husky TE with two broken motors. I sort of had buyers remorse until I realized it had a LHRB installed! It has an AJP master cylinder and the husky brembo brakes are identical to the ALta so everything was a straight swap over. Now I need...

If the idiot is out riding it, I thinks that bodes well for getting it back. stay optimistic I grew up infatuated with AC Cobra cars. I thought it was so cool that there was a registry that kept track of all the cars around the world. An exclusive club which makes it virtually impossible for...

May the thieves be caught lying gently unconscious in the street after a 6 o'clock wheelie is performed aboard the subsequently recovered Alta.

The slot cut in the ring so you can install it without removing the clevis sort of looks like a bird's mouth but maybe i have an odd imagination I guess this design could theoretically collapse inward?

You can make it pretty easily on a lathe. I made one for a past ktm but made it thicker than that zeta item. Lowered the seat by about 1.5-2 inches. You can make them in a split fashion like the Zeta or just turn a solid ring and then cut a birdsmouth in it to slide it around the shock shaft...

Still tinkering with the bike and pulled the motor. Fukuta from Taiwan , I believe. FUKUTA ELEC. & MACH. CO, LTD. I think its considered a permanent magnet synchronous motor or pmsm. I counted 6 magnets in there and it looks like there are 36 teeth on the stator. The position sensor sits...

2017 Alta Motors Redshift MX 17 mx $9k not mine just a fyi

Its not the arrow, its the archer. That is the same video shoot (2018) from the first post in this thread using the drone footage instead. I have a bunch of questions about the milandr but could you introduce yourself first and show something we haven't seen yet?

Wiring harness stuff. Prototype bike has harness (Delphi) 2100741-01 Rev 3. My working bike was built about 150 bikes after the prototype and has a different harness (2100741-04) If I compare -01 harness to the pinout shown here Battery Pack Disassembled (Frustrating Weekend) (which may or...

This is my impression, too. Tangential to this nice discussion I see someone tinkering with another powerex igbt inverter to put it in a car, the subject of capacitors being considered, but maybe in a different context. Time for MORE POWER! 1400a 1200v IGBT controller build! - Endless Sphere

For academic purposes, I dove into the inverter as far as I dared to. I'm an electrical novice so this is part of learning more about how these bikes actually work. Inverter lives under the seat. The big round structure is a capacitor, I believe. Mine has a H&C label on it, maybe that is...

I would like to be able to purchase a home grown bantam weight. Wouldn't the talent and brainpower represented in our AOF membership be able to produce this bike? <iframe width="560" height="315" src="" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope...

Here is the electric clutch test fixture. :D (Some here may actually know the video creator)

Thanks, I tried a couple of the older aebins from the zip files, neither worked. They are all newer than bcu 2.15.1. I hope to find someone who could share 2.15.1.aebin

Status update. Battery appears to look normal but failed to work when installed in my working bike. Working bike's battery has older firmware than what is available for updates. I think the firmware in the working bike is incompatible with what I have available for the old battery. I'm...
