MSX customizations-sharewhat you’ve done


Recommended Posts

Okay let’s face it... for us hard core riders out there it’s been a fight between the MSX and the Z10 though personally I think it’s a superior wheel even without the detailed experience of the z10 I’ve had to make quite a few customizations to my wheel.

share what you’ve done and perhaps it would inspire me and others!

Here’s a list of things I’ve done:

1. Put ACM padding on my MSX

2.lowered pedal angles 

3.outdoor hiking light mounted by Velcro 

4.el wire(three strips u see in the pic) to be visible from the side 

5. Mud guard

6. Slime into inner tube 

7.put more grip tape as the ones on the pedal were wearing out.

You put a smaller tire on the wheel? Why?

How did you get an extra 800wh of battery in the wheel?

Can you give more detail on the wire and what powers it please?

Its called El Wire, can be bought online or at some hardware stores / automotive stores.  Ive used a bit of it on the boat.  Powered usually by a couple of AA batteries or similar.  Do a google search you will come up with answers.

 

Cheers,
Alex.

- Lowered the dihedral pedal angle

- Angled sidepads (front and back)

- Bigfoot Pedal Extensions with shock absorbers (blocks of silicone under the rear end)

- Replaced the LED core for better light spread

- Gooped the tire

- Installed a purchased GW mud flap

- Electronics: Glued down the large caps properly, added solder to the cap legs and a few Mosfet connections

To do: Re-position the beeper under the power button. Water proofing.

sorry didnt have a chance to come back on the forum, been busy. They're called EL-WIRE and work really great because you can bend and fold or even crash ur wheel and its still fine
