So what motor and controller do you guys recommend?

I had no idea 3kw hub motors could become that powerful. All I'm looking for is something that will allow me to go up to 45 mph without doing unexpected wheelies and allow me to do panic stops. Anything faster and I know I might get myself into some serious injury as I will mostly use this for...

I currently have a 1500watt bbshd on a hybrid bike and I want to sell the entire package and make a new ebike. This time around I'm thinking about using a 3000 watt hub motor that will take me to the mid 40 mph range. I know I'll need a 72v battery pack and will see if a custom pack could be...

I like that its compatible with more bikes and provides greater power over the bbshd but what bothers me is the noise it produces. Any ideas?

Its also a bit louder which I don't really like.

I dont have the funds for that as I already have my own bike, I'm planning to revamp my entire setup. I'm only keeping the motor. But I do realize with the cyc there are more compatible bikes

I am interested in getting this 2011 Carbon Specialized S-Works Enduro SL Comp. I plan on asking a reputable battery maker osnpower from aliexpress to make a custom battery pack for the frame as well as installing an asi bac 800 plug n play 72v controller. Will the bbshd fit?

Saw one on sale in my local Craigslist. From my understanding, the chainstays on full suspension bikes have a bulge near the bottom bracket that may prevent the installaion of larger chain rings or the motor itself.

What are you talking about?

Luna doesnt have a plug n play version and the US link from electroncycles just refers to their website.

Ive been eyeing that item for awhile now and it sucks the site is down.

It seems like the bikes mentioned are old and quite difficult to find for sale. Are there any other that are newer retailing for about $1000 new or used thst can be found on ebay or craigslist that can fit a large triabgle battery?

Are there clones of these? Ive seen stealth bomner frames that sell for $300

where do you guys buy your bike frames and what would a build like this run me?
