Cleaning up and upgrading the batteries for a friend's Tidalforce S-750X

Rick dropped by over the weekend to have his S-750X upgraded from the dead front hub battery to the 16 or 20 Ah battery. He had it in storage for a while so it was a bit grungy. I've got quite a bit of work to do on it. Building the 36V pack, installing the Topeak rear rack and bag, installing the Cycle Analyst...

Went for a ride at work...

I took my bike to work yesterday since the weather was so perfect. I had a chance to take a break and went for a ride. I passed a police officer sitting by the side of the road and about a mile down the road, he sounds his siren and pulls me over! Another rider riding by said, "You're pulling him over? For what?" My thoughts exactly!

He was just curious about the bike and how it was going so fast.

I gave him a quick tour of the bike. I didn't offer to give him a ride, though...

I took my S-750C (for Crystalyte) bike. Crystalyte HS3540 motor with the Multistar 16Ah pack. It has the eBikes.ca BAC500 FOC controller and a Cycle Analyst V3. I also have eBikes.ca lights front and rear. I have disc brakes front and rear as well.

Two electric vehicles!

I found this older photo when I happened upon a Tesla Model X in the neighborhood.

One is slightly more expensive than the other! :-)
