Bionx Wheel......HELP!!!!!
 
I bought a Bionx hub at a garage sale a few months ago.I bought a nice rim off Ebay and had it laced at my LBS. Now I find out that Bronx is a kit that only works with its own parts. Bionx stuff is so freaking expensive. Is there anyway to power this thing????

First, fix the typo in the thread title so people have some clue what brand you are referring to.

Next, do at least a small amount of research so you know which brands are so totally proprietary and difficult to replace parts for.

Then, do a search for "Syonyk", as he has figured out the steps to make a replacement battery work with a Bionx kit with only minimal loss of functionality.

It is a bit complicated, but that is the result of the purchase decision that you made. Good luck.

Thank you for your observation, kind advice and the info you provided.

from what I have read, If i was to have an existing battery to tear the electrics out of, it is a possibility. With out the internal battery guts I am kind up the creek

That is not what I recall, but then I haven't been real interested in Bionx since I read up on them.

IIRC there was a matter of feeding a small voltage to one of the controller ports, or something similar. There is a link to Syonyk's blog in the Schwinn Tailwind thread.
