Does the Magic Pie III come with External Controller?
Hi all, I'm a long time forum reader but a first time poster. It's a really good quality video you got there Gary! And nice floor board you got there on the video! ;)
Have you got more updates on the pie3?
I could not resist!!
Dare I say the worlds first Dual Drive MPIII. Its now turning into some sort of super bike, two motors three batteries... WooHoo!!!
Gary
Sorry just 1 more because I'm so jealous....
Officer: "Excuse me sir, what is all this business on the end of your bicycle?"
Gary: "I like to keep my soup in there...."
Officer: "Oh good idea, on your way"
Gary: "Muhauhahahahaa" *whizzes away at 2400watts*
Looks amazing Gary, you must be proud of your new baby :D
It surely must be getting difficult to decide what to ride each day!
Curse you Gary !@!!@!
when it comes out (maybe Jan but might be later right Gary?)
nice connection but is it weather proof? Have you ask GM to make a console like or better then bionx g2 for there new and shinny MP3? ::)
Its kinda like when you buy a new car or motorcycle. When your at home you position yourself by the window so you can look at it :)
The other day I went to the arena with my daughter on the back of the tandem. Its still a blast and really fun for two but it's not my "Townie" :)
Gary
Yes the Townie looks comfy as! I'm so wondering what it would be like if you went on a massive ride and see how far you can get with your uber battery pack, maybe the wife can pick you up where you end up? :D
But its probably too cold now to do that....
Also, was there any access for squeezing wires inside the frame? Or no room...
cheers
OMG Gary the Chinese copy Monkey's bike design
WEEKEND SALE: $649.95
Does the rear kit come with a threaded rear free wheel cassette? or do you supply your own? 135mm between dropout to dropout is needed right? then just spin on an 7 or 8 speed cassette?
Does that latest pie (on the picture) sit on a 26inch rim? It is just that that pie looks bigger and the spokes look almost radial.
Do you know if Pie 2 or Pie 3 comes in 24inch rim? or has anyone tried to install it on a 24inch rim?

Still no idea when the 3 will be released to the public, Im hanging out to get one. Does the rear kit come with a threaded rear free wheel cassette? or do you supply your own? 135mm between dropout to dropout is needed right? then just spin on an 7 or 8 speed cassette?
The spoke pattern on the MPIII is exactly the same as the MPII:

MPII MPIII
Although the distance between the two spoke flanges is slightly narrower on the MPIII:

The issue is not in the body weight, but in the vehicle's one... As bicycle is lighter as easier drive it... If just the motor + controller (even without the battery) get the bicycle twice heavier... It seems this wheel is good for the heavy old-style bi-cycles or for tri- or quad- ones, but not for the modern foldable or light-weight mountain bicycles... But, you know, as many persons as many opinions...
Hello Gary, is the MPIII in stock? Or always preorder-able?
See you
''If you don't understand why a Magic Pie 2 is 10kg then you obviously have never had one in your hands. If the MP III is 11kg then so be it.
Most likely these numbers are the shipping weight anyway.''
