Hello. ive purchased the baja sun trike about a year ago for my wife. we love it since she cant ride a two wheeler. the weight limits how far we can go thats why i liked the conversion u made. with a 750W 40ah , how far can you go on a moderate bike path? whats the top speed? can u pull a small trailer? can it handle the sand at the beach? Have you tested this trike? (ill be happy to donate my time to test for you :) ) i visited the website to buy the Luna Cycle adaptor and seem to be sold out. i found an adaptor at my local bicycle shop($14), but it is not off set like Luna and it is threaded . do u know if i would have clearance to install the motor without the offset adaptor? Help me convert my trike w tech support, and i might invest to continue your differential project/idea on my trike, i ride ojai and ventura area and would love to use it at the beach. thanks!
The luna ling doesn't work? i measured the bottom bracket as 51.59mm and the website is now calling out niner 54.5mm ebb? does it work, or the part discontinued?
Why didn’t you use a 36T chainring? The link you provide has about 50+ different models of motor and display - can you provide exact part numbers? Thanks!
The link should take you to Amazon. Once you select the display type and battery size you want, the price will populate. The prices range from $433 for the kit without a battery to over $900 depending on what you choose.
@@ElectricAllWheel I seem to remember there is a way of achieving a differential of sorts utilizing a couple of freewheels, though I can't quite picture it right now.
For a battery mount, I just used 2 pieces of 1.5 x .25 x 15.25 Aluminum bar stock, I drilled 2 holes on each bar to mount the bars to the frame, then drilled 2 more holes to attach the basket to the bars. Basically, I moved the basket to the rear about 2.5 inches and lifted it. I used nylon bushings between the basket and the bars. The bushing give me the clearance needed to stack them. I can then attach the base of my Mega Shark battery upright between the front of the basket and seat post. The way it sits, I have full access to the battery lock from the basket side and my recharging port faces forward. This cost me about $32.00 in materials. I then spray painted the bars gloss black to match the bike. If you want, you can use longer bars to the rear, drill it to insert a flag mount or eyelets to take your trike down. Hint: Drill the holes from the battery mount first.
You need a 40T Lekkie chainring for best results with this conversion or else you risk chain line issued, you also need a strap the runs from the chainguard front mount over the frame to the motor to keep it from rotating.
@@ElectricAllWheel I just built a BBS02 with a 1991 Trek 700 trekking....that's why I was looking at this to see the torque capabilities to see whether I should purchase a trailer
@@ricksanchez3628 it’s more than enough for a trike. BBS02 is beyond the needs of a trike, unless you’re in a hilly area. Even then, it gets the job done. Samagaga makes a diff that would fit this I believe.
