For my participation in the Sun Trip Sahara 2024 I built a bicycle camper with a Grin drivetrain. I had a really nice trip, the entire route was 7'376 km in 43 days. I consumed and charged about 70 kWh and the average daily performance was 172 km.
Unfortunately I had problems with the gears of the Shengyi motor in Taroudant, Morocco. Grin sent me some spare gears within 3 days, so I was back on track unexpectedly quickly. Thanks a lot, you really saved me there!
I am currently reworking the vehicle, especially the change to the Grin All-Axle motor will bring some improvement for the next trips.
