This is my first build, I have been hanging around here for about a year. My goal is to achieve a very secure fast build. I like to hit jumps, drops, dh tracks and tow my friend, as well as having motorcycle (~50mph) speeds to use a source of transportation.
Parts
Motor: I ordered a Lightning Rods Big Block motor kit for the 83mm bb 750$ after shipping
Battery: I got some ebike battery's from Battery Hookup they are 4 x 10s 4p 36v 12.8ah, cells are MH1. I hope to put these 4 packs into 2s 2p for 72v 25.6ah. 250$ for cells + 100$ for 72v 100a bms
Controller: I'm not sure about this one yet (any suggestions?), I'm looking into the shul cl350.
Bike: 2010 Evil Revolt DH Bike 775
Drivetrain: I'm just gonna upgrade as I break what is currently there
Throttle: Going to buy an IP67 domino as soon as I can find one that's not 150$
Bike
It has a really nice flat area to mount the battery to and the downtube goes up linearly right after the BB so I don't have to worry about my motor hanging down.
Some BEEFY forks, the damper on it actually worked super well for a 12 year old bike from a guy who did not seem like the regularly scheduled maintenance type of guy.
For the battery I taped them together to get the shape of them, to see if it'll fit, it does. And I tested the fork compression and it does not rub.
The guy who owned the bike before me was a KOOK. Hardly ever cleaned it and stored it outside, but the damage wasn't too bad. I took it and stripped every thing down to clean and regrease. Unfortunately he thought that the suspension settings were loose ( since the knobs moved) so he had tightened all of them down as much as possible
I was able to undo them though with a little rubber clamp thing. Other than that the bike was in pretty good condition.
Problems:
Connecting the battery modules. i know i cant just connect the main positive and negatives of each module together into 2s 2p and the bms still work, but im not sure how to connect the modules to achieve the 20s 8p battery and connect the bms. If anyone can give me some advice that would be greatly appreciated.
