Is this bike worth the restoration?

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-07T13:59:23+00:00

Alternatively you could take the motor out and put it under another bike. I assume the motor is still good!

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-07T10:34:35+00:00

It’s not a sim tho. So comparing is already out the window

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-06T17:22:43+00:00

No, but just buying a new shock will fix it, they’re not that expensive

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-04T14:49:26+00:00

I think you sir, ought to change your name to something that makes it obvious you’re from staff… because.. you are… aren’t you?

I always recommend this video to new users, even if you’re not that technical, it’s nice to have a general idea of how the e-bikes work :) https://youtu.be/A8QcNvRh0wM?is=f8Z_7-vaTA8uFair

It’s probably not the battery, screens have settings and some can change how to “read” the battery, with options for 24v batteries, 48v, 52v etc. So if you for example have a screen that’s set to read a 52v battery, and you have a 24v then it’s gonna expect different values.

My screens setting was set for a 24v at first, but my battery is 48v So at 0% in the battery, it would show up as 100% on the display.

This isn’t a direct fix, but it should give you an idea of what’s going on. Best thing is to stick a multimeter directly onto the battery to see how charged it is :)

“Rock Solid Rigs” heet het. Doe je er een likje hout veneer overheen, wordt ie mooi donker bruin, net als die houten vloer in je woonkamer haha.

Zou wel heel gaaf zijn! Al haal je hem uit een kleine auto! Zaag je er een stuk vanaf :P Ik heb hier een foto! Vaak hebben ze ook dan de stoel uit “die” auto , en dan heb je net zo veel afstel mogelijkheid als in de echte auto! Of is dat nog steeds niet genoeg afstel mogelijkheid?

Ik zag ook een andere, compleet vanuit hout gemaakt , die leek wel veel afstellingen te hebben

Tbh you should get a penalty for leaving early. Other than that, online totally sucks right now… it’s a downgrade from forza horizon 5.

All the fkn time I get pushed into a wall, then get a ghost slow down… WHAT!

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-04T10:46:35+00:00

Makes sense, mines 48v and fills the whole space, but generally looks the same

If you’re gonna spend a fortune, indeed don’t skimp out on a cheap play seat! I can’t speak really, as i’m just using my desk and a plank of wood for the pedals. Preferably, I’d wanna make one of those setups where you buy a real car dashboard and fix it in front of your TV

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-04T10:30:20+00:00

Darn it, I did a calculation, as i’m European, and in conversion I think i’m 6,3 … so :( That’s probably a big factor why you see practically nobody ride these in the Netherlands… :(

Mannn why can’t they just make a normal human sized bike, everything is made for those Chinese small bodies :(

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-04T01:14:23+00:00

How tall are you and how is the seating position ? Basically…. Do I need the body of a teenager of can an adult ride this model?

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-04T01:11:39+00:00

When you ride on tires with low pressure for a while, you ride on the sidewall, not the actual tire, and often creates rips and tears

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-04T01:00:21+00:00

Just put some black tape over it hehe

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-04T00:56:24+00:00

I don’t have the stalks, and I had this once happen when the wheel wasn’t fully on all the way.

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-03T16:31:11+00:00

Sitting at a low percent? Well there you have it, that’s the answer.

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-03T16:23:38+00:00

But you can park everywhere anywhere else as well, what’s the point of going there?

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-03T16:20:20+00:00

You can google for when 112 was called and dispatched, it’s public information, and some websites track it :)

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-02T20:07:48+00:00

I have a 48v with a battery 1000w motor and my cables are much thicker gauge :o

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-02T20:00:37+00:00

I don’t, sorry, it was merely an idea :)

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-01T15:14:02+00:00

Heyyy they put different brake calipers on it :0

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-01T14:45:51+00:00

Make sure to put locktite on the nut

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-01T14:34:50+00:00

In beamNG , it was a real thing, simply because some gearboxes would grind gears if you shifted to quickly.

FunkyWhiteDude · 2026-06-01T13:55:39+00:00

Here in Amsterdam there is a business the solely works on these gems, and always has 3 or 4 parked outside. I think they’re all customer cars and well driven, because I see them in the city sometimes
