Speed limiting

Hello

I have a hub motor 800w 60v, Connected to a controller 1000w 60v max 28A. and max speed is 32 km/h 18 inch wheel
And I need to make it go max 25 km/h, there is some way to put a resistor on the throttle, but how to?

my english is bad sorry

There's a few ways. Some of them are in threads in this list, if it helps.

Some of the methods are better than others.

Using a resistor in the throttle can limit speed but it also limits max acceleration from a stop, because you can't get full throttle (thus not full power). (unless you also make a bypass switch).

Using an electronic limiter (like a Cycle Analyst v3, or whatever limitation your controller may have, activatable either by a wire pair/jumper or by programming it) would just limit the speed itself.

Buy a cheap Kunteng controller that does speed control, where you can define the max speed on the LCD configurations and it will not pass that value!!

You can buy them here, as S series controllers (including the LCD): https://bmsbattery.com/
