Magic pie - first taste

[Hyena]

If you connect it just to the front brake, but also connect it through the throttle switch, you could use the rear for gentle (non-regen) braking and the front would automatically start regen, or you could easily turn it off if you still wanted to.

I thought of that, but I'll be replacing my front brakes with hydros so the brake levers with the switch won't suit and I don't think I can be bothered messing around with a reed switch or similar. I like the idea of having regen on a seperate switch so it doesnt have to be on. For gentle braking I'd probably use just the fronts so I wouldn't want regen kicking in there, and I often use the rear for locking up the back wheel to skid around stuff without actually slowing down too much. That's for my work commuter bike though, I'm also building a custom cruiser which I'll probably just wire to the rear brakes. Stay tuned for that one some time after xmas

I got 38 kph top speed no pedals on my old golden 36v@48v 200 watt hub, "SLA's".  I believe at 36v its more like 500 watts and 48v its 750 watts.

I think its a little faster now but havent had a bike speedo for a good 8 mths.

Hyena,

Does your bike had the rim centering problems with the pie?
