It’s taking every fiber of not ruining my marriage to resist buying this: Xtracycle Edgerunner cargo e-bike w/ BionX motor - bicycles - by owner - bike sale - craigslist

The Bionix system is pretty meh, but that’s a fully loaded Xtracycle from 2018, which was the only year with the newest frame design offered as a meat bike option and not ebike only. This is the same I converted with my Grin kit except it’s not the step thru version.

Ideally, id buy it, ride it for a while while I get my grin wheel sorted (unlace, open up, solder new main power cable, relace) and then swap all the Grin kit over and resell my new Bionix-d swoop frame for more than $900.

Or maybe I’d play with it and try out a mid drive conversion kit like the Toseven. I’ve got a spare 20ā€ analog rear wheel from my previous conversion.

I definitely don’t have room for both, but when the ebike is the primary baby hauler it would be nice to have a backup. I could tarp it in the patio up a flight of stairs for storage but not daily use.

Oh shit what happened?

There’s just some crazy vibration I can’t figure out. Almost feels as if there is a light regenerative braking. I really feel it in my feet through the pedals and the kids notice it too. Doesn’t seem to have any effect on performance. Happens when throttle, coasting, pedalling with torque sensor. Also happens biking with the system off and unplugged. I guess a potentially shorted phase wire may do something more extreme?

I replaced cassette and chain and that helped. My old cassette was not quite straight and wobbled (but was tight). What I really need to do is put my old analog wheel on and ride around a bit to isolate it to the ebike wheel.

It’s been a while since I’ve had this much desire for a sweet fixie.

Very sweet. Takes front and rear brakes, could be an awesome SS road bike.

This is what the Official Tarck Olmo once looked like!

Now that I think of it, the OTO is a 54 which is why I sold it. This one is a 56! Should I try to relive my youth???

yeah you absolutely should. i can’t think of anything better than paying a bong for a 30 year old frame and fork
