Noise Dampening a Zero?
« on: July 10, 2015, 12:24:51 AM »

So this is a little bit of a funny question because everyone's reaction is going to be "but it's so quiet already!" - has anyone done additional noise canceling on the bike to dampen the electric motor whine even further?

On my bike, it seems the belt is what makes the noise at low speed. I'm wondering if I loosen it a little if it will be quieter, but I haven't tried it. Using the Gates 91107 Belt Tension Tester, it is definitely on the high side, although it's not exactly a precision measurement.
