What is a brute when it's at home?
The brute, was my first hub ever, 13 years ago.. even with a bike with a curb weight of 120 pounds via lead batteries, it would 0-45mph stupid fast!!! Only downside was it was 8000watts so range with 12ah power was a major issue! I could get 20-25 miles...
It will be simple... two 72v big packs, and I want a 12kw hub but most places only go up to 8kw and if that’s the case then I will just buy a brute again for the hub... hard to push a brute with pedals but power to the ground they are the best money can buy
Most don’t know me, some remember me... ten years ago I was one of the top people involved in building small compact EV bikes... from 50mph micro pocket bikes to 20” bmx bikes with a brute hub out back.. I made a couple MX bikes with direct drive as well... long story short, the last ten years I...
Any one know of the advancement made in capacitor style batteries since 2008??? I am behind the times(prolly will be the only way I will spool the 300amps in a small package!
LOL a Vespa don’t have heated seats and duel zone AC LOL.... I got to admit, the radio reminds me of a repair shop truck with it only having two 5” speakers in the doors for all the sound... it’s so tiny sounding even with bass to the max and treble all the way down LOL
So small update.... the race car is being sold this week and will be using the funds for a smart car, other then the transmission issues the have, sounds like a car that will help keep money in the bank and not tossing wads of cash at my other cars that at best get 8mpg... minus the Audi Etron...
It’s in the works.... getting rid of my race car and need something else to blow my money on(hobby) LOL why not finally build a 2hp 60 mph pocket bike like I was attempting ten years ago!!!! Only was 8mph off of my goal, so with current tech and li power, I should be able now to spin a 13” tire...
Well it’s been 10 years and I need to start over again... reason I left for so long was I got into motor sports and dammit I went from 12 hobbies down to one hobby one car! ALL invested!
Tired of that life, I want to get back into EV!
Some know me(if so please say hello)
Some don’t, my thing...

Range:? have not had enuff time to get that far yet...so far has about 4mile...
ya, I plan on getting the 72v controller, and the 48v system ran great I pulled only 18moh but that is almost what i am looking for...
do you think when I go duel hub/controllers for the 2x2 bike I am making I can run the 3625controller as the secondary controller? I think the pedal sensore...
can I run 48volts...the guys at Electricrider did not want to tell me the real answer and the rep sounded like he did not know! :roll:
I am running a roadrunner on 36v on a 20" rim and top speed is a totaly weeeeeek 14mph! :x $300 investment for that? WTF
