    Hello from Prof Bliffle in Nor Cal

    I've been a lifelong cyclist but I'm 82 now so I have to adjust. I returned my trusty Steel Road bike to it's maker after 40 years of flawless service. It was the product of 20 years of study and applied engineering on my part. So now I must motorize, and solve some other problems. For example...

    Question about usability

    So, I have a build planned, that will use a 500w rear motor, a 250w front motor, and a KTM50. My question is about the KTM50, since I've been reading lately and it seems like it is a complete un-tamable monster of an engine, and getting it to be able to cruise around in is difficult to say the...

    58V electric chainsaw to power bike?

    HELP! My NEW bike wont start

    Had this bike built by a guy a fair while away from me, and less than two weeks later it's just stopped working. Managed to run half a tank of petrol, refilled and now the motor won't kick back in at all. The guy refuses to help me or take responsibility. I'm not great at things mechanically...

    49cc Gas + 2000 Watt Electric Felt MP

    Selling for $3499. Yes it costs a lot but, to my horror, the parts cost alone exceeded $4000. The price spiraled out of control when I added the electric components to this already existing gas bike. This bike can run off either batteries alone or gas power or both simultaneously, as well as...

    2wd hybrid bike

    Has anyone tried running an in frame gas motor and a front wheel electric motor? I have been curious about this, almost to the point of ordering a motor to see how it would work. 2wd sounds fun. What are the potential pitfalls to this notion, besides weight obviously.

    Electric Bike Generator Issues

    Hello! I have a 1/8 hp motor that we were hoping to use as a generator. It is supposed to turn at 810 rpm when supplied with 230 V and 2.7 A. When we spun it at 810 rpm, we only got 4 V though. Are we doing something wrong or is the motor defective? Or does the motor not respond the same...
