Yeah, I am an admin over there. search yahoo for my username and my site comes up, I don't want to plug it since I am just a participant on this forum- in respect to Mike.

If you weld the freewheel be sure that you have a pretty good margin for controller voltage over your battery voltage. Going down hills on throttle can cause over run that will pop caps (or other parts) if you don't have some headroom there.



Headway cells are good for LiFe chemistry and low discharge rates. I run the Turnigy and Zippy 5ah packs on my bikes right now, along with a123. Gotta say the hobby city stuff is great for the price, but we shall see how many cycles they last.
