[WTB] EU E-Bike shizz, Motor, throttle etc

[dasman]

I dont know anything about the focbox but the I configured the second adc to cut throttle so you can’t throttle and use the physical brakes at the same time.

With physical brakes I would maybe not do regen at all since you aren’t going to get much extra range for it and it puts the batteries and vesc under more wear and tear.

Edit just saw the pic you posted of the focbox…

26"

I’ll check later if mine even has 28" lol

[Evwan]

you can use adc1 for the throttle and adc2 for a small thumb throttle for regen brake

This requires a brake sensor, right?

Agree with this. Regen is very low on my must have list.

Yes. Usually it’s a switch inside the brake lever on the handlebar

As far as vesc throttle handshakes, I believe any ADC hall throttle will play nicely with vesc ADC input mode.

No, it needs to be 3.3V and not 5V.

A 5V can be easily converted to a 3.3V with two resistors.

Do not apply more than 3.3V to the ADC pins on the VESC.

don't wire ADC to 5v

You need to use adc,. And hopefully your hall sensor chip can take a 3.3 volt input, cause adc maxes out reading above 3.3 I can walk you thought it when you’re ready Up to you if you want a break regen switch 4153412281

Give us a build thread Justin.

It would be pathetic, it was so simple.

1. Remove front wheel.
2. Replace with motor hub wheel.
3. Install torque arm to bike frame and axle.
4. Order a breakout cable and junk ebike kit from Amazon.
5. Add battery and plug it all in.

I found a small bike bag that hangs on the tube and holds the esc perfectly at Walmart but it seems pretty universal. Just velcro straps on the tube

that’s what outsiders want though! simple

RICETOO Electric Bicycle… Amazon.com

I just used these, one for acceleration and one for brake on my trike, they are cheap and so far have worked really well. I’m running them on flipsky 75100.

[xsynatic]

10cm

[xsynatic]

Also confirmed i need 28"

[frame]

now u know which hub would fit ur front fork

[Linesflag]

I have an 1kw rear motor if you change your mind. It’s currently on a 26" wheel, but you can just rip that out and spoke it into an 28" wheel ezpz.

Rear wheel is nicer imo, the steering feels way less clunky.

[xsynatic]

Does it support a 10cm fork?

*Granted if the rear is the same as the front. I just measured the front duh

I’m not 100% set on Front hub, it’s just less work/modifications i have to do on the bike.

[Linesflag]

Nah the rear is wider to accommodate the gear casette. it needs ~14cm. Thats not to tragic though if yours is a bit smaller, you can just bend the rear fork apart a bit.

I can send you some pics if you want.

Ah hell nah

@Linesflag

I can send you some pics if you want

Yes please.

Need to ask the bike shops what it would cost for them to re-spoke it.

[Linesflag]

@xsynatic

Yes please.

PM’d.

@xsynatic

it’s just less work/modifications i have to do on the bike.

Usually the back wheel is a drop-in replacement too, at least with my bike that was the case.

[iNoLikeFlexyDecks]

I think you can use some pins or the uart port

[xsynatic]

Man there are really no good videos on youtube discussing vescs with ebikes.

Even though i have no real expectations, i kinda fear i will be disappointed with a 10s battery.
