Have you considered the Eclipse ring (42t and 48t) or the lekkie (several sizes including 42t and 46t)? The have the huge advantage of being narrow-wide...

[AZguy]

The display needs to be hooked up in order to turn on the controller - all testing must be done with the unit connected to the battery *and* turned on...

I'd like to try 3" tires to see how they do in the deep sand but I suspect for them to be much fun in that they'd have to be down quite low... I...

[AZguy]

Just pulling the links away from the sprocket like we discussed earlier

Even when I noticed this I'd start paying attention to the rear (larger)...

[AZguy]

30psi is *WAAAAAY* too high for 4" or greater tires IMO - you lose a most of the benefit (large contact patch)... Heck, my tires are rated for a...

[AZguy]

Probing the controller PCA directly is very difficult since it's potted... you can probe the motor hall sensor but that's clearly not an issue since the...

I've got more than a ton of experience with sprockets doing the old fishhook thing when the chain stretches on motos - chains and sprockets are *always*...

[AZguy]

That's crazy... I suppose I might try measuring differently...

It looks like I'll easily get 3000mi and prolly still have a lot less than...

[AZguy]

I drove over the my shop and pulled my car into the back and sitting right next to the car was the bike, chain staring at me and daring me to measure...

[AZguy]

I doubt I have any old ones but happy to send you the one I'm on when it's replaced... I don't expect a lot more out of it

As mentioned I...

[AZguy]

I've probed them in the past and it was easy

I still think it's a good idea to see "which side of the pedal cadence connector"...

[AZguy]

Sorry, I'm relying on memory and I'm old, likely drink too much and the memory is feeble - what were we talking about?

You can still probe...

[AZguy]

Nope - leave them all hooked up - unplugged you can't see anything... On the other side of that black connector you'll see little slots that expose the...

400mi! Yikes

Seems like something must be up that you are tearing through them so fast... when I rode motos I had a "medical condition"...

I've got a 197mm motobecane boris

Very nice components (Deore XT shift/derailleur, Guide RS brakes) and overall very happy with it

+1

Seat angle is super important, it takes minor changes to make big difference and most folks tend to put the nose too low thinking it...

[AZguy]

If I'm getting >3000mi on a ~$35 chain (not cheap, not expensive) riding hard on a BBSHD, it's very difficult [for me] to see the value in paying 2-3x...

[AZguy]

The wires I'm talking about are on the controller side of things - opposite the motor side you have in your pictures... the controller is what looks like...

[AZguy]

With the controller open you can probe between the gray wire and ground (black wire) that comes from the pedal cadence sensor with a DVM and slowly turn...

[AZguy]

I might be on the overkill side of the spectrum but I really like the pedal cadence sensing feature - however there are other features very useful while...
