Thanks for this post! This is awesome info. I'm curious if you notice the bike handling any differently with the slacker head angle. I'd love to hear a report after you've gotten in a couple rides on it.
I just saw this posted in another thread. WTF? These batteries will stop working after 5 years even if they are otherwise fine? Is anybody coming up on the 5 year mark?
Huh, you think the motor attempts to vary the power in walk mode based on the grade it thinks the bike is on. I am skeptical of this, but I at least understand the theory. Thanks for the explanation.
Gary - If you don't know the answer, you can just say you don't know. If you do know, please enlighten the rest of us that weren't lucky enough to have been bestowed the amazing brain that you got.
I did RTFM. The FM makes no sense to me.
Why would the amount of power the motor needs to put out depend on the mount angle at all? It's spinning the cranks. Even if the motor was upside down, the power around the BB axis would be the same.
I use Stunlocker. I've seen various discussion of the motor mount angle setting, but I haven't seen a description of what it actually does. Does anybody know?
It seems like the motor should be applying consistent power (relative to your pedaling) around the axis. I can't figure out how the...
