@E-bikeguy, just had to do this same repair. Love the detail and explanation of what you're doing. For anyone else watching this and reading the comments, when you're joining wires that are going to carry a lot of current and are fairly large it's going to be very hard to get a solder connection that has equivalent current carrying capacity to the unbroken wire. The wire is a heat sink and, using a small hand-held soldering iron like most people have, you're going to have a hard time getting the entire interface hot enough for the solder to permeate the entire wire and avoid a cold solder joint. In cases like this where there's relatively high voltage and current and a lot of vibration, a mechanical interface is always recommended. If you're going to be doing this work, get yourself some high quality copper butt connectors and a proper ratcheting crimper with the proper dies designed for unshielded connectors and sized to the gauge of wire you're crimping. If you do solder it, make sure the wires are completely permeated with solder and your overlap between the two wires is at least 3X the diameter and preferably 5X the diameter. You have to remember that the max current in the entire system is limited by the weakest link. More often than I can count the fix for a wide array of performance and reliability problems people have brought to me have ended up being cold solder joints in high current wires.

We missed the bit where you invite someone over that you don't like and have them lower the stator into the hub keeping it straight with their fingers😂.....damn those things slam home from the magnets. Your enemy will only have thumbs left..

That is for tightening only, it won’t remove a freewheel. They do make several tools for the different freewheel. This one needs a hook and pin spanner wrench similar to the tool needed to change a grinder wheel. But if the holes are mangled it’s going to need the method similar to this one.

Hey question, I keep getting a phase current surge protect warning in fardriver after running the bike for like 20-30 seconds. I did open it up and add statorade, was fine until 12km into a commute power kept cutting out with that error. Inside my motor, some phase wire housing cracked, so i taped that up with 130c rated rubber electrical tape. I'm going to open her up again and take a look but what do you think it could be? it did get hot in there, smelled...charred. coils look fine nothing black, but the zip tie holding the phase wires inside the motor melted, which means it exceeded 80c. Thoughts?

What problem would you recommend looking for if I were to be cheap and specifically buy a wheel that’s listed as “as is/parts”? I can’t afford a new wheel but will definitely buy a broken one that can be fixed without crazy tools. That wire problem is something I already have experience with and fixed. But is there anything else?

do you ever spoke your own wheels? always wondered how hard that would be. I usually kind of flick the spokes and listen to the pitch of the sound they make to tell if they are tight enough or too loose. i guess there's a torque tool to do that more scientifically 😏
