This is how it was originally Then to this Then to what you see currently, with the banana seat. It's now much easier to handle at low speeds, especially since it weighs 110lbs. With the early high milk crate placement it was fine when traveling near top speed but a real pain to balance while...

Oh man I'm sorry, I didn't know about all that. I was just going by what he emailed me. Well I'm staying out of this. Thanks for the clarification.

Thanks fetcher but I was speaking of brushless controllers not motors. I'm already aware of the motors peak curretnt/time and sustained current limits. My question was about this controller, If it's like what the guy who posted just before fetcher said and controllers are rated similarly to...

Safe just emailed me. He got banned from the forums and he's ticked. Something about saying that regen braking doesn't work well, and I agree that it doesn't because the amount of amperage generated by regen braking can't all be absorbed back into the batteries without damage but that's as far...

It's alot better than the old seat, sat me too upright. Here's my more complicated bike with the front freewheel system. All chromoly :)

two 400watt kollmorgen motors running #25 chain with 11 tooth motor sprockets. A rear hub with a 65 tooth #25 chain sprocket on a freewheel. A couple pieces of flat stock steel, a length of all thread and a few nuts. And wala. If you'd like more details or have me build the setup for you with...

Every one has seen the carver. This is termed as a delta trike or more technically a 1f1t for 1 front(wheel) 1 tilting(wheel). It come gas, hybrid or all electric blah blah blah. It's considered assisted tilting because there is a pendulum controlled sensor that controls a servo to tilt it...

Ignoring battery sag: a simple throttle stop would work to limit amperage, there are crimp on clips that you can put through a drilled hole in a screw type throttle stop to detour anyone from messing with it. Also post tech inspection would detour cheating. Also if you run a 5k pot you can...

If you'd like to read about my bike, see more pictures and get detailed instructions for building a FWD unit like I did check my website out. electricky.googlepages.com (no www.). -Ryan

Thanks, I've worked really hard on it and spent close to a grand. I ride it 9 miles to college and back 6 days a week. It can go about 20 miles on a single charge but I don't like to cycle the batteries that deep so I charge it at school. I have 2 sc-600a Schumacher chargers on the way which I'm...

Here's a better picture I took today.

Here's mine banana seat equipped ebike.

It started as a basic low-end k-mart mongoose bmx but this is the earliest picture I have of it, sorry. FWD, twin 400w internally controlled brushless kollmorgen motors. Two 12v 33ah agm deep cycles. Magura 5k twist. 11t:65t ratio. 28mph @ 26v(fresh off the charger), 26mph all day long @ 24v...
