my recent built. i always thought about a black bike to make it easier hiding all the electric stuff, 2 days, 2 cans of matt black and some decals later - i really love it :mrgreen:
that KlickFix Mini bag is perfect for my 4,8Ah 14s3p Konion Pack and i have a 3,2 Ah 13s2p Konion pack in a small saddle bag so i can take both if i go on a long trip
top speed @ 57V with pedaling is ~52km/h
weight of the bike is 21kg. 23,4kg with the big battery pack and i´m considering using a smaller, lighter motor and a small 6 fet controller to get it down to ~19kg.

really nice build mate. really subtle, and very light for a dualy! makes me think ive gone the wrong way with my 50odd kg norko! (though, im guessing you've got about half the power). is that a mac? how does it hold up offroad, if thats what you do?

i guess NOT even half the power.
no problems offroad but if i keep that motor i will surely get another torque arm for the other side and for real offroad fun i`m using a lighter bike :D

Image

i had a fast wound Puma V3 with steel gears that ran ~66 km/h - funny - but i didn´t really need that speed so i sold it. i really like to pedal so i mainly use the motor to accelerate faster, sometimes to overtake and to climb really steep hills where i can´t pedal only...as you might imagine with that single 42 teeth chainwheel at the front.
sometimes i use less than 1.5 Ah on a 45km trip and that´s why i´m considering a smaller motor like the Xingfeng - should be enough for me and with a diameter of 13cm it´d make the bike a lot stealthier

Finally, my BikeE is now the E-BikeE. BikeE + e-bikekit.com rear geared 20". 7 speed freewheel. 7th gear is 13 tooth, will probably swap out with a DNP Epoch with 11 teeth on lowest. Looking to boost up the crank teeth from 45 to as close to 60 as I can get. 36V 15AH ping battery.

16-17 mph without pedaling. Next battery will be 48V.

Here's my before and after that I just finished - my first e-bike! Thanks so much to everyone on this forum. I spent almost two weeks reading over posts here and doing research before diving in.

The bike is a mid-2000s Gary Fisher. Rear wheel direct drive HS35 Crystallite kit with 35A controller (from ebikes.ca). Battery is a 48V 15AH ping inside of a west marine tackle box (thanks to the suggestion by a fellow forum member). Additional accessories include fenders, mirror, cell phone mount, small rechargeable iHome speaker for music, rear rack and a million or so zip ties. I'm still waiting on the Ping battery to arrive but other than that, it's done! Really excited to give it it's first ride.

there was a post on this board I read a week or so ago from a guy that built the cleanest ebikes I have ever seen. Real art to it. I remember the bikes all had in common the fact that he built all his batteries into the water bottles. Can anyone post me a link to his bikes please? I want to see it again

Nice example of the flexibility of the EV Falcon bag.
Some here have said this wouldn't work.
Did you put anything between the shock and the bag to prevent wear?

Hi there!

I'm a newbe at ES and was lurking for quite a while. Your posts here where a really great help.
This is my ride, an ICE Sprint with a little Bafang SWXH and 36V/11Ah LiMn battery under the seat. It is allready great fun in this legal but quite restricted setting.

Image

After experimenting with some 50-60V RC LiPo batterys in the last couple of month (way more fun!) I've got a Bafang BPM in 26" rim on order.

Then it will look more like this:
