New Dude Hello!
Hello all, I've been on the ebike scene for about 5 yrs now..... with stealth, sondors, then some home built units.
Current Stable:
Stealth Fighter for my wife
Flux (futr) home built Beta 2500watt single track machine
and latest purchase - sur ron X from Luna-tic-cycle guys. Just getting the sur-ron dialed in to my liking.... seat risers, riser bars, etc.... love the tq and hill climb capability of the sur-ron.
Cheers from Houston,
Jeff
Oh and have to chuckle.... I DID unbox the sur ron like a 5 yr old and rode it down the trails....... after which point I broke the pedal crank, and nukes the pedal bearings.... so you should read the instructions..... and and got a flat too.
** I discovered a 220 lb man should not fly over a 3' jump whilst standing on the cheapo plastic pedal kit with no lube!!! glad I did not plant my right foot into the ground.... the pedal gave away gracefully as if to say.... we got you this one time :)
New aftermarket cranks on order - found these unicycle cranks on amazon for cheap -

packed the bottom bracket bearings with quality axle grease..... then put it on a vise..... and use blue lock tite on the end caps..... then hooked up a 1/2" driver and pushed the rpm up on the shaft.... then re-tq the bearing again....... all bedded in and smooth now.
