My first ebike.
Started Oct 2011. (Edit 2024 - this motor only lasted a year or two. Probably blew a MOSFET - I've never tried to open it for repair)
Golden motor - Magic pie motor.
| The magic pie hub motor. |
Close up of the colour coded connectors. |
| The main battery plug. |
The throttle is currently up side down. |
| The red button is the "cruise" control. |
All the excess wiring before trimming. |
| My PS2 to DIN-8 adapter. |
After replacing the PS2 connector once and having it mangle the first time it came unplugged - I'd had enough of these feeble little things.
With most of the warranty still left I decided not to cut the PS2 line socket from the motor cable. Instead I made an adapter which is glued in place with Sugru. The control cable now has a DIN-8 in place.
