WOW! Everytime I read these great stories I learn something new!!
My A2B with controller in motor version has a new life!!
With a 48Volt 1000 watt Lipo4!! Woohooo!!
Now to get some brakes on it!!
After reading (above) I hooked up my new battery directly to the motor wires and although I didn't get any significant speed boost I do go for miles and miles.
I am 160lbs and my buddy sitting on back is 160, with the battery and bike weight we are at about 420 lbs!
The bike hauled us but the 48/1000 did heat up the motor and I had to dump water on it to cool it off so we could get home, it took nearly an hour for the over-heat sensor to reset.
Here is a couple pics of my setup- keep in mind that my bike is looking rough as I just want to GO!!!
The battery is taped to the back for now, my kid broke the derailer bolt hole off the frame so I am in process of puttin a single speed chain. The bike is Live all the time with it hooked up this way- I have 2 batteries now - the in-frame 36 volt and 48/1000/25ah battery is phenomenal!!
Thanks Paul Drury for your insight to hook this battery direct!!!
I believe my bike is the bike that Y-Pedal use to own- he will be dismayed perhaps to see the abuse I have put it through.
This winter I will remove the controller from the hub and put néw spokes- gotta find someone to do this a reasonable costs.
Note that I welded a bracket around the swing arm to attach a gas motor and/or a home-made fender.
Oops can't attach pics... Will try again... Says they are too big.
