An alternative method for if your orbital sander is too big, you don’t have one, or the part you need to sand won’t work well with one:
Get a dremel and plenty of tiny sanding belts starting with new rough belts and then go through some older used belts that are no longer as abrasive up until their finer options they have (don’t know the grit and they don’t label each piece). You can then achieve a nice brushed aluminum finish using the steel wool buffing brushes.
DO NOT use the steel wool without sanding it with several different grits/ worn out bands first or else you will destroy the buffing bits very quickly. Also use very little pressure when using the finer buffing brush as those ones are easier to destroy.
To clarify I mean these things:
Been avoiding it and finishing electric bikes been making. As soon as done these two (selling one) I’m back on it and a lot are already done. They were all done and then the fuckups started happening, mostly being rotors somehow rubbing
I know it’s been ages. I’m sick of doing it and a lot of work. But I sold my other electric bikes figured I’d be done these and kinda need them to get to work unless I want to pedal all the time n kinda far. Should be done by Monday.
Once they’re done it’s back to making skate motors non-stop till the rest of eu are out.

Has anyone else already gone through the setup of the hubs? Did anyone find a better way of getting smoother start from a standstill or is VSS/HFI as good as its gonna get without adding sensors?

I’ve temporarily set it up with a 10s2p Sanyo 20700 and a Xenith. Even on 80A motor max and motor brake, this is STRONG.

I’ve gotten the large majority out. Still some in Europe I need to finish n get out
I’m surprised I never see or hear anything about what I sent

Yeah, I would have thought there would be more reports as well. Sorry to say this, but given how long it’s taken, you really should get them all finished and sent out.

Yea I know it’s been ages. It ended up being a big money/time hole with so many unforeseen problems.

Amazing job @hummieee!
I didn’t realize the hubs were huge!
I wanted 4WD but as John advised me I’ll stick to 2WD.
