Sorry it's taken so long to reply. I was going to use a cheap mountain bike. GT aggressor. It has a 3 x 8 freewheel. The kit came but I had a issue with the spindle. I fitted it but wasn't happy with the spacing so took it out. Unfortunately I don't know how but I knackered the thread. It would...

Many thanks again for your fantastic detailed reply. I've got some instructions on the controller. I can set the Battery current limit to 50-100% so 50% would be 30amps. There is also a setting for phase current limit! This also is between 50-100% what should I set that at? There is also a low...

Many thanks for taking time to reply and help. Ok I'm currently riding 11miles each day. I was wanting to reach up to 30mph + It's mainly flat some slight climbs, Very little stopping. I didn't want to limit myself to such a short range. I would like to be able to get 22 miles + so I don't have...

I haven't tested. I don't have motor yet. I didn't think running the motor at a lower wattage it's rated for would be a good idea. 52 x 30 is 1560w am I right. I just want some advice on what battery I should buy and where to buy from. Can anyone help.

Hi. Can anyone recommend a good supplier of 72v battery. There are so many on AliExpress, Dhgate etc I'm wondering if someone could send a link. Thanks

Thank you. I've put up another thread as you suggested.

I'm looking to purchase a good quality 72v battery pack to maximize the performance of the Cyclone 3000w motor and 60a programmable controller. Look forward to your comments. Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I thought a 72v would be way too expensive. I currently have a 52v 17.5 ah 30amp battery. I assume this wouldn't be suitable. Do you have a link for a 72v battery that you would recommend. I live in UK. Thanks

Hi. I've just ordered the Cyclone 3000w motor. I don't think I will ever run it that high as I probably won't be getting a 72v battery. I need some buying advice on which battery to buy. I will have a programmable controller so have the opportunity to adjust some of the settings. What would be...

I will buy direct , as you mentioned it's probably still the best option unless someone else knows of a better option!

I'm not sure if you understood what I was trying to say. Maybe I should rewrite my post. Basically if you live in Europe eg. UK and buy something in Europe. you don't have to pay customs duty. If I bought it from China or America I would have to pay tax or vat or both depending on cost of item...

Can anyone suggest European supplier of cyclone motor kits. I want to avoid paying custom duty. Thanks.

Fantastic road with great scenery BTW :D

Thanks for everyone's comments. My biggest concern is the safety. I don't believe the frame I have is suitable. Shallow dropouts. Aluminium. And I'm quite heavy. I think I will look into getting a steel frame with deeper dropouts. I have some pics but I am having problems uploading them. I don't...

Thanks guys for the response and pictures. I wish my dropouts were that deep.
