I feel like that would have pulled the ceiling and desk into a spiral mess of cables and wood

I’ve been thinking a lot about the absolute shit-show that my first board was. Now I want to see what absolute monstrosities this community has come up with. I’ll start things off; this is the first battery I ever tried to build (and it was terrible). Somehow this pile of garbage managed to fuel my rides for hundreds of miles until I finally decided I needed to learn how to do it better. A miracle from the esk8 gods if you ask me!

A proof of concept to see how fast this hoverboard hub would push this bike. Cause doing math is for losers.

The answer is about 15mph, which is way too fast (for the future user, not for me). Also lacked traction due to the long arm and lack of weight.

But it works. Ordered a cheap aliexpress ebike controller with a pedal assist input for the final product. Now I just gotta make a little pusher trailer A frame where the middle bar of the A is a spring pulling the left bar of the A inward to ensure constant contact between road and tire. Hopefully it won’t look bad enough to warrant being in this thread.
