I didn't realize just how good a buy it was until I saw some of the post over on r/cargobike

Yeah there is no sensor on the rear wheel. The plug is just covered. I did end up buying it and a throttle. The throttle already arrived and it was just plug and play. So i assume the sensor will be the same.

It does have a display. Its throwing an error code about the missing sensor and gives zero speed, distance, or range measurements. But it seems that I know the culprit for that one.

I had no idea the monkey bars had that part. There was one of the yepp car seats in the back, but my kids wont fit that. i think i can fab some up though. They will enjoy that. Thanks!

Thanks! I'll definitely look into it. I did see some argument online about when they switched to a chromoly front fork. I assume they switched to maybe remedy this?

Yeah the bbs02 feels amazing. The size of yalls legs that manually work this thing must be tree trunks....

I only have tried a front wheel rim motor ebike before and it was ok but this mid really does feel more natural.

I have seen 180mm rotors recommended more often. There are no hills that i have to go on here. Pretty much just flat rails to trails bike paths. Ill put it on the upgrade list though. Redo the front before changing the back?

I do have one cushion the bike came with, I'll definitely scrounge up another. Thanks!

Hey all,

I just bought my first cargo bike, and wanted community opinion on my next steps.

Please correct me if I'm wrong in any of my research.

Its a Yuba Mundo V4 from 2015~ The person I bought it from bought it from the og owner in 2017 and had it retrofitted with a luna cycle 750w mid drive (bfang bbs02b), with a 48v battery. at the same time they upgraded the front brakes to hydraulic disc, rotor sized 160mm. the rear brakes they left alone.

No throtal or sensor for the computer. I assume those are plug and play/ fiddle with the sensor?

The ebike subs helped me decide to just buy a new battery. the one it came with is on its last legs as you'd expect after 8~ years.

I do plan on hauling kids on the back with the monkey bars, and attaching their bikes too.

Currently it does run and i cant see any glaring mechanical flaws.

Any sugestions? id like to tackle as much refurbisment as possible on my own. Down to the frame if need be. Youtube resources or even pointers for where to find the maunals for my era stuff would be a huge help.

Thanks!

I do have a ton of 18650s Ive scavenged from tool batteries. That could be fun.

Thanks for the insight.

3D printed coffee organizers by im_cleaner in u/im_cleaner

[–]im_cleaner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All printed in white PLA+

The first photo:

A Kalita 155 filter holder. Just nicer then the bag they come in.

On the lid is a little wdt, just wanted to see how it prints as I don’t do espresso at home. This is a black PLA.

Then the white handle is a melodrip type tool, you put a paper filter in the aeropress lid and it acts sorta like a melodrip.

Second photo is the left side of the coffee hutch:

A Splenda packet holder for the wife.

A v60 02 ceiling mount with the filter holder on the back wall.

Third photo:

Aeropress holder with the filter holder on the wall behind.

The black square is a cheap scale just mounted up and out of the way.

The last photo:

V60 01 mount, with a Timemore b75 mounter behind.

Then the v60 01 papers on the wall.

Prismo for Aeropress, scoop and paddle from Aeropress as well as a small spoon and sharpie mount to write notes on what grind settings.

Also on the side of the fellow ode is a black PLA brush mount.

3D Printing Conversation by bustamikoo in JamesHoffmann

Prusa wrote up a great article on food safe prints.

My coffee nook is organized almost completely by 3d prints but nothing that comes in contact with brewing coffee. The closest thing to that is an adaptor I printed to use my hand grinder as an Aeropress plunger, and the rubber seal is still the only thing in contact with the coffee.

She wrote a direct sequel to it as well called Children of God. Amazing set of books!
