I love Linear Technology parts

However these are for small to medium energy density, low-voltage, low-power applications and have little...

A narrow-wide chain ring goes a long way to preventing that

I've got a very good chain line, top notch [11sp] derailleur and everything sound...

I gave the 26x4.8 Minions (80mm rim) a whirl on my build (Boris 197mm) and I don't think I could go any wider, there's only about 5mm chain clearance...

I get 1500mi of good mi typically and then another 500mi that they don't handle as well but still have tread (knobs) and the tires I run are very aggressive......

[AZguy]

I do way too much dirt/sand, etc. to look at hard surface only tires so no real experience - I live in the desert (mountains nearby too) so even urban...

I don't remember what I put on the 26 x 4.0 - it's a rear hub unit and only gets loaned so I went for something not as dirt oriented - it came with the...

I run 26 x 4.7+ on one bike (197mm dropout) and 26x4 on the other.... I don't think the selection is really all that limited to be frank - I have a hard...

Moto tires need moto rims

I suppose it's true if you are in a high gear on the hub it may take longer for the PAS cadence sensor to initiate power

I've got both a...

Hub or mid?

With a hub drive it makes no difference what gear you are in for the most part - only makes a difference if you *have* to pedal...

[AZguy]

True at the motor however most discussion concerns the battery volts/amps so very different discussion

Motor amps limited by battery draw...

I don't think english is the first language for the guy making these (although he seems proficient) so take some instructions with a bit of salt

I don't mess with the PC application at all anymore and don't think most people do either - it's not really a "GUI", just a setup and log download...

[AZguy]

Batt-man "fuel gauge" isn't based on voltage like the others, but the amp-hours so you need to set that in the PC application and it won't care...

[AZguy]

*All* the things I refer to are on the display itself - there are three "pages" of data... I pretty much just leave it on the one that shows...

[AZguy]

Batt-man records and displays Wh and miles traveled in addition to Ah [and amps, volts, watts, speed, max amps, max watts, max speed, min voltage]...

I have a friend with one of these - the rear IGH has seriously limited gear range, the chain ring is much too small and the motor parameters could really...
