@@shockadellick there is a fault with the air bag in those jackets, i would avoid them at all costs, they also catch the ground when you come off and make it even worse,,DONT BUY THAT PRODUCT!!!!!!!!!!

hi i watched your videos i'm interested if i could write you about the X1 PRO Gen i have one question about the Torque Sensor axle width

@@shockadellick i own one for my moto. great call!

Where are you using the anti seize? (car guy here, only ever used it mounting wheels with spacers.)

@@polack BB and freewheel

Direct from cyc which took about a month but customer service was pretty good as I had a few issues. Definitely worth dealing/buying CYC directly for warranty purposes

I don't recall the size but it looks like this www.lowes.com/pd/Hillman-100-Count-5-8-in-Standard-SAE-External-Tooth-Lock-Washer/4315073?cm_mmc=shp-_-c-_-prd-_-hdw-_-google-_-pla-_-213-_-sosbuildershardware-_-4315073-_-0&placeholder=null&gclsrc=aw.ds&&gclid=Cj0KCQjwgo_5BRDuARIsADDEntSOELzTZKMaLmlldCuPqp6c0Du6SrQSjKhfVp1wTil6XpzaVASH3m8aAj2jEALw_wcB

Hi David, the motor mounting plates actually fit around my bottom bracket housing on one side so the whole motor can rotate if I push it by hand but I would not say it is loose. It will hold the motor up by itself without rotating however it would definitely move if I were to give it throttle. I think you need to tighten your bottom bracket cups a little more.

gen 1 owner here. swap out the nylon strap to a metal hose clap the screw kind. but it up against the frame

I got the 855 working pretty good now. PAS still doesn't work but I just got the updated BB which should be the final solution. The throttle cut off issue still happens but less often and the power resumes within 1 second due to the new update.

@@RuffRoadDesigns Thanks for your reply! Are you saying that they had to send you an updated Bottom Bracket spindle? I bought the motor from them and I'm wondering if I should request those same parts before I do my build. Do they think that your problems are due to your particular unit(s) or are they just working the bugs out of the whole system? Would you be willing to share your 855 config, or did you not need to change it much from the their config?

Turner dhr

Picked it specifically because it was a DH bike (8" suspension travel and built stronger) and had a large front triangle for a battery

No tools are included.

Hi, sorry I'm new to this, I normally see people grease the thread of the bottom bracket or use the blue locktile. However, didn't see anyone doing these motor doing that. You also say we shouldn't grease the BB as well. May I ask why is there a contradiction? Thank you so much for all of your help. And thank you to the uploader too. If you can help me answer this that would be awesome

@@bohaman. Only the square taper of the axle should not be greased. First reason is that square taper crank arms can and will come loose Second if U use grease when you tighten the crank onto the taper it would enable the crank arm to slide just that little bit further onto the taper before binding up tight but this is not good as you get a finite amount of times you can remove and reinstall a crank arm onto a square taper axle. Everytime you tighten it up it goes on just a little bit further With no grease on the axle taper the crank arm will bind up sooner Hope that made sense

@@nobrakes7247 Thank you for taking your time and explain to me. To recap what you say. 1) When you say no grease, you mean it is between the square taper and the square hole from the crank arm part correct? 2) the reason no grease is better because it prevents slipping and I can remove/install it many times correct? 3) the reason grease is better because it prevents binding. However, the reason for bullet 2 out weight the benefit on bullet 3 correct? Thank you

@@bohaman. Correct But just to confuse U a little more. Grease does help reduce binding but the main reason for it is to prevent oxidation of metal thus you apply grease to parts being put together so they come apart again even after they have been abused and used in the mud and grime

@@nobrakes7247 I'd use anti-seize instead of grease.

Definitely can take some measurements. I am not exactly sure what dimensions you are interested in tho. Please send me a PM with a quick drawing or reference to the Cyc drawing dimensions. Thanks!

Not possible option deleted by utube some time ago. If you head over to the cyc website And you go to the shop And you choose Gen 2 option The specifications should come up on that page If you scroll down to the second drawing you will see measurements P and N Measured from point H Sorry I should have explained the reason for the measurements. If you were sitting on your bike feet on the pedals and you are looking down at the motor How centralised is the motor between your ankles A lot of mid drives are offset to the right several mm . This is reason for the measurements. Cheers

I have the files available for free on thingiverse www.thingiverse.com/thing:4457758

Ryan, I mean for those that does not have a 3D printer. You should consider having them available for sale…cuz I would swoop one up. Thanks.

@@DaLife888 I have considered it as I do run a small 3d printer business but I need to print in batches to make it cost/time effective. If I can get an order for 20+ units I'd go for it. Another option is using a 3d print service on Etsy as most are usually hobbiest therefore prices are very reasonable for 1 off parts

Another video is showing where they bend the spring a little to there is less pressure on the chain.

Link to the motor mounts posted in the video description, enjoy!

@@RuffRoadDesigns Thank you so much for it sir. I'm trying to learn sketchup to make model myself but it's so hard. Your model definitely save me a lot of time. I'll keep learning.

@@RuffRoadDesigns Hi sir, Just want to let you know I finally got a chance to printed your model, I got to say I'm pretty lucky, it fits my bike perfectly. Now I'm just waiting to install the motor. thank you so much for it. If you ever have a chance please show me how you made the model. I really love to learn. I'm watching other youtube video but they are more 3d modeling not focus on create 3d model that the 3d printer can print. Thank you again

4 months but 1 month delay because covid 19.

Ryan V you ordered the motor last year?

Almost, i ordered it the first week of 2020

$1200 usd shipped

I felt the same way. The motor and controller seems very well built but the mounting design isn't great.

1000 miles on mine and no issues

1,000 miles on my kit and i havent broken anything

@@nickrinkel1423 I have done 4k miles in 7 months on my hub and brome nothing either

@@gursisingh1940 sorry but you're way off the truth, i've done 26k miles on hubs and they are terrible, spokes braking, wheels bending, when a motor is on the wheel the torque kills it over time as it transfers its power where as my mid drive 10k done has literally no issues except a lil greasing, the chain set wears a lil bit faster than hub but you try fixing in spokes when they go, i'll never go hub ever, ever again.

@@gursisingh1940 ur find in many cases mid drive like bbs02 had chain breaking and some issues of over heating but try a bbshd you won't look back.

@@mikethomas6051 you might have gotten a cheap kit, I have double wall rims and moped spokes on my hub motor and the frame drop outs should be filed precisely for it to not cause any sort of damage, I have used a hand file to file it out and used a very thin drill bit to shape the edges of the drop out to match like 90% of the shaft shape. There is a forum online somewhere that shows that a hub motor torque is no where near enough to cause damage to a mtb aluminium frame drop outs except if shaped incorrectly, if is been files incorrectly then the torque won't be distributed evenly and will cause some damage. What mid drive do you have? Theoretically there are many more parts that can fail in the mid drive compared to the hub motor
