    It's great that you finally have Regen. I see one spot weld, but the other welds are not. Welded for years and if you made 5 spot welds on that clutch it would hold just fine. Spot welds are easily ground off if the motor requires maintenance . The talaria boy was a rookie not able to handle the power and probably just got the bike. He had no control even on takeoff. Thought you had an open loop for freewheeling? You've been converted to the power of Regen. That motor is the 6T not the Grin. I'm sure I can hear the difference. This is your longest vid yet, Epic .

    • @EBikeBuilder_
      @EBikeBuilder_  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      the clutch assembly is welded But its a 25$ piece. And its not welded onto the axle. So i can still take it off, and put on a non - welded clutch, Or put new gears on the welded clutch, etc. It just slides onto the axle. REgen is sweet. Especially with the geared hubs, I guess. This is the 6.5T noisy Boy But in some Twist of fate, drilling 6 giant vent holes in both sides of the motor somehow didn't make it much louder / if not more quiet. But overall its pretty loud now with those nylon gears crunching the regen. The regen braking feels crazy strong even when its only on 55 or 60 phase amps. Feels like slamming on my MT210 budget hydros. This will save me so many brake pads. It was an epic ride indeed Lol Thanks for watching my friend !! 👍👍

      it sounds different because I installed those "questionable nylon gears" that I got on ali express. 7 bucks for the 3 gears. LOL I put them on already, because I wanted to see what would happen. And then i drilled 6 vent holes in each side of the motor. But some how the new questionable nylon gears actually sound more quiet. So I dont know maybe something about the bafang OEM gears with all the additional metal and parts on them are louder. But these questionable 7$ nylon gears gears are holding up at 75 phase amps so far

    Big fan of your content! Awesome video. What would you say is better, mid drive + rear hub or dual hub?

    • @EBikeBuilder_
      @EBikeBuilder_  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      mid drive and rear hub works good as an upgrade, but its some extra weight So unless you are upgrading an existing bike. I would just get a powerful rear hub motor rather than have 2 motors. But it can be fun to have a mid drive and a hub motor both on the same bike, for example you can use the hub to move the bike and shift the gears in the mid drive without the drive train being under load, etc. Its fun dont let me talk ya out of it. I did it as an upgrade. But it was heavy. If u get the bbshd on 72V that thing is absolutely bonkers you dont need any other motors Lol. Dual hubs is good for sand or snow or like really tough off road stuff crawling at slow speeds through high resistance terrain. But with dual hubs the front wheel spins out a lot Lol so its like a danger issue, easy to slip out and crash with the front motor. Dual hubs is great for climbing hills and the extra torque and acceleration But it can be dangerous. Also makes the wheels heavy and kinda hard to work on, when both wheels have torque washers and torque arms and motor cables etc. If u use a front hub motor lots of the time have to permanently modify the fork to fit a huge motor axle. Theres really only 1 forks that ive found that works with a front geared hub and its the RST guide forks. Or else i think grin tech has a front motor that can do through axle but its direct drive

    • @EBikeBuilder_
      @EBikeBuilder_  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      to answer your question though Lol like neither of them are really better than the other. But in terms of like laying power down and overall effectiveness the rear hub and mid drive worked well , no loss of traction in the rear wheel like with a front hub. My only concern would be, if your Hub motor has a FREEWHEEL that threads onto the axle, im not sure how long the threads on the hub motor will last with a mid drive cranking on a freewheel. When I did it i had a bafang g62 with a cassette, not a freewheel

    Regen causes the shaft to damage dropout because it's constantly moving backward and forward, the torque arm must be custom made to a 100th of mm so there is no play whatsoever. Some people adjust the play with thin aluminium plates but i recommend to go ask a CNC metal worker and design a custom arm and fittings.

      i thnk that v7 grin tech regen torque arm is the only way Lol its like microscopic levels of fastening that needs to happen. Even with 3 torque arms split across both sides of the dropouts it can still move around slightly over time, is what i've found. its literally like someone wrenching on the axle flats as you ride along. regen is super serious.

    • @EBikeBuilder_
      @EBikeBuilder_  14 วันที่ผ่านมา

      i think the newer bafang motors like the G61 front motor actually uses an M14 locknut. That can help. But you would not believe the amount of torque that regen causes. You need something metal that does not give or move whatsoever. If regen can break out of metal torque arms, then im sure it can break out of a locknut. Its very crazy you wouldnt believe how fast regen can loosen those nuts off

    Interesting with dual motors like wanted on my Mars. Ordered 26" air forks & a Flipsky 75100 Pro V2 with a key lock & volt meter. Think what else is needed is a DD front wheel motor on Regen for braking, recharging a front battery & saving on brake pads. Want maybe dual throttle on front with 1 for braking, 1 for hills & no throttle is coast on rear motor for power. WDYT? Possible?

    • @EBikeBuilder_
      @EBikeBuilder_  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      i havent tried regen with a DD hub motor, i hear its stronger regen with a geared hub like the bafang. But I think, any type of regen in the front wheel, is going to be extremely crazy Lol. I dont know if regen is necessary in the front wheel?? It could work really well. But Iwould be concerned about the forks and securing the motor. I guess the V7 torque arm might work in front also. I would only try a front motor with a strong fork like an RST guide fork. and then if doing regen the v7 torque arm. Lol no other way I would try regen in front. I was thinking about what if i had regen in my front geared hub motor... and Im pretty sure I would break the forks. LOL. The regen in my back geared hub already feels like slamming on my shimano MT 210 hydraulics. I would break my front fork if that motor did full regen. Its crazy powerful. If you do a front motor of any kind id makesure that thing is super secure and have a good way of controlling the regen. If i did regen with both motors, Im pretty sure I would fall off the bike or it would skid out or something. I don't even have the regen set to it's full intensity, I have it at 55 or 60 phase amps. and you could set it like 75 for more regen intensity

    • @EBikeBuilder_
      @EBikeBuilder_  14 วันที่ผ่านมา

      To do Regen you need a controller that supports it. Also, a good torque arm, like the grin tech regen torque arm. And finally yeah for these geared hub motors it needs the welded clutch, or the planetary gear holder without a clutch, i think grin has started making them.

    Whatever you gain with regen is lost with the resistance it creates. If you only traveled downhill that would work, but that's not possible. If you could somehow hook it up to only engage while braking, that would also work... sort of. Have fun with it, but you'll come to the conclusion it's a big waste of time.

    • @EBikeBuilder_
      @EBikeBuilder_  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The 'resistance it creates' only effects you when the wheel is spinning without motor power, which is only when I am slowing down, So why would I not want free powerful braking? where I dont have to slam on 2 levers. And it charges the battery a small amount while riding. There's different ways to control regen, the way I have it set up in this video is not good for pedaling. If you are trying to pedal it around like a bicycle, then Yeah Maybe set the regen to your brake lever. I haven't tried putting the regen on my brake lever yet. But you can have the welded clutch, the drag is minimal, and when regen is not activated its not actually braking, the drag is very minimal. its already a fat bike. you can barely tell the difference in drag pedaling it with the regen brake off.

      @@EBikeBuilder_ I like to coast, I don't need to be on the throttle constantly. Let us know how much range you actually gain. I don't suspect it will be much. I'm all for experimentation but the thought of braking every time I let of the throttle just seems futile to me. The law of conservation of energy states this will not work. Like I said if you could rig it so it only regens when you're braking, you may gain a little bit of range, but since you have it setup so it engages anytime you let off the throttle any gains are eaten up as it slows you down. I'm not even claiming I know more than you, just confident you not going to see much, if any benefit.

      I held off on regen for a long time, 10% is not much, that alone is not worth it. There are disadvantages to it for sure, one being its not easy to hold the motor secure. Its not easy with a 12MM axle flats thats for sure. BUT the thing about regen is its powerful braking, that you get for free, that does not require you to grab the brake levers or wear down brake pads and rotors, its an automatic brake that you can engage by laying off the throttle. The verdict is out as to how much it wears down the nylon gears. But it is an insanely powerful braking force, that you can use for free, in addition to your bikes brakes, which by the way when you do regen + your bikes brakes, it both stacks together and you get an incredible braking force. Even if your bike brakes arent that good. If I slam on the regen it feels pretty much as powerful as my shimano MT201. It's a very powerful braking force. It only weakens when you start to slow down to rolling speeds. But it can stop me going down steep inclines if you give it enough room
