What a world of difference in speed and power higher voltage/curent does.
I had a blast this morning during a few runs after managing to mount everything on the bike.
Although i am limited by the battery BMS to 40 amps continuous, i still can reach 40MPH in first gear with 30 amps of field weakening.
I don't know how long my internal gear hub is going to last if i run this kind of power through it but the bike is a joy to ride.
It is worthwhile at least for a while to have experienced so much fun.

I have read where a couple of you got the phaserunner and CA3 and started at 52V. RPMS were boosted in this set up. Have tried doing a search and can find no more info on this topic. Curious how much more speed was gained. How was the over all performance increases vs a Ludacrous at 60 amp. Thanks.
I know this thread is a couple years old, hopefully some of you guys are still around

A couple things I wanted to mention...i.e. one recommendation and one question....
Grease....I talked to the engineers at Mobil 1 and they recommended Mobil SHC 100 for my BBSHD and my MAC. When I went to a Ludicrous controller, I greased my nylon gear and all of the internal components liberally with Mobile 1 SHC 100 grease and to date, I have not had any problems. I have a steel gear standing by but so far I haven't needed it. I run my controller set to 50A now but had it at 60A for a few months.
Question....I ride off road only in fairly tight trails and the max top speed I need is about 20 mph. Any faster and those trees get in my way :lol: . I am currently running a 14s6p battery, Ludicrous controller set to 50A...any higher and I can't keep the front end down when coming off of a corner, 27.5x3.00 Maxxis High Roller rear tire, and 28 tooth front/22 tooth rear gearing. If I have the top speed I need, enough torque, and my motor temps are OK...the only advantage I can see for going to 72v is a little quicker throttle response. Am I missing anything...what do you guys think? Thank You
