E Giant Anthem X |
|
|
This bike was 26lb to begin with so if I keep it simple it should be
nearing 50lb ready to ride I figure... I got the Liteskin apples this time and they really are quite noticeably less weight! |

Tires mounted perfect! The kickstand rigged, but functional similar to my last one. The torque arms only needed minimal grinding to fit. Both needed a back notch to get around the swing arm and the right one about 1/8" cut out to clear the derailleur. |

 |
More tire room than the Trance but no plans to use fenders here! |
 |
|
I don't like the twist shifters or I like using a half twist
throttle too much! So since I simply never shift when I ride anyhow I'm going to remove the grip shifters. There's no reason to even mount up the thumb throttle as I already know that I don't like'm. A 52t chainring arrived direct from Rennen so I think all parts for this bike are now on hand. |

CA Stats for a short commute

The controller gets pretty warm in the bag on a hot day so
additional cooling surface was added. Three sides mostly covered by 20 small peel'n stick heat sinks. |

| I leave the back corner open a bit to allow airt to flow from the front holes out the back. | |

Charging continues to happen in the crock-pot. A wood stick props open the lid and should slide if the battery puffs. If the battery catches fire the wires should melt and the lid would then mostly seal off the flame. |
