hi guys.
I referenced this site years ago to build a battery to match a 1kW Chinese hub kit on a cheap steel frame mountain bike. It hits a comfortable 30mph. I'm in a new area (hilly, cold, rough roads). I am considering upgrading to a more powerful setup to deal with steeper hills and higher speeds, but the bike has to be fixed either way.
The old battery is long since dead and I tossed the crappy "waterproof" bag along with it. I'm keeping the bike frame at a minimum since it's in great shape and has decent suspension. I've yet to replace the tubing and tires.
I'm trying to find sources for a regenerative controller, 30ah+ LiFePO4 battery, battery casing, and battery gauge. Which sites are the most relevant lately?
