Phoenix R2 Torque Arm Phoenix R1 Torque Arm
About Torque
Torque is twisting motion. If you apply throttle without first securely tightening the axle
bolts, the motor will try to turn inside the dropouts, permanently damaging the wires
coming out of the motor. Be sure the axle is very tightly secured to the dropouts. Phoenix
front wheel motors also have a torque arm.
Phoenix Front Wheel Torque Arm
The Phoenix R1 motor torque arm is attached to the motor and goes inside the front fork.
The R2 motor torque arm is a separate piece and goes outside the fork.
12. Re-install and adjust the brakes. Chances are good that the new rim and the old
one aren’t exactly the same, so adjust the shoes so that they engage the rim with
full contact. Adjust the cable for just enough free-play to keep the shoes off the
wheel during rotation. Remember, you will be asking more from your brakes
when riding at electric bike speeds.
Install the Rack
13. Install the rack. It’s a little different for each bike, but generally you will use the
axle for the lower support and the seat clamp for the upper support. It may be
necessary to bend or grind a little off the upper supports of the rack to fit some
bikes. For the rack you will need a Phillips-head screwdriver and an 11/32” or
crescent wrench.
