I have noticed that efforts to keep water out are normally realized to be ways to keep water IN. I am currently draining my Crystalyte 408 of it’s water, hoping to be able to dry it out and get it back to it’s old self.

According to a website, There’s a federal law that limits the speed of electric bicycle to 20 mph in the USA. Fortunately, according to a friend who sells scooters & motorcycles, the limit is 30 mph where I live.

Just riding it to work.. in the rain. I never wash it or submerge it of course. I am still having a problem with disassembling the motor any suggestions?

Know one guy who took motor apart and never was able to get it back together again. Consider drying it out some other way?

i saw that somewhere as well…50cc…30 mph…and i forget what volt/amp limit or w/e…idk…maybe we would just have to try and fly under the radar or somethin…that makes me kind of hesitant to, talking about water getting into it etc…maybe the non-hub motors would fare a little better in rain etc?

I had a Hall sensor failure, so I had to take it apart. The hall sensor had failed due to the Corrosion/water in my motor (I live in Florida and have to ride in the wet or not get there, I am sure you understand considering your geographic location). Anyway getting it apart is the problem, getting it back together is well handled by magnetic force, as witnessed by the chunk of flesh it took out of my finger as it handled the assembly of the core to magnet ring. Mental note.. Magnets bite.

I’ve heard that these rare earth magnets are strong enough to break a finger. Good luck.
