FOR SALE: The ULTIMATE high powered e-bike

This is the 'non plus ultra' of e-bikes. I had two of these custom-built - one for me, and one for my wife, delivered in May 2018. It is not possible to build a bike to these specs yourself, unless you have a plasma cutter and welding skills to build the frame from scratch.

There have been a few upgrades since the above pics, including NEW Michelin Anakee tires (still dual purpose, but much smoother)

The bike is located on Vancouver Island (sorry, I WILL NOT SHIP) and has just over 1000 kms on it.

Built here on the island by Sunahme e-bikes in Ladysmith. More info:

Sunahme Electric Bikes - Powerful eBikes Made in Canada - Electric Bikes Blog

The bike I am selling is one of the last ones they built (no longer in business). There simply is no finer e-Bike out there. I used to have a Stealth Bomber, and it was overpriced junk compared to the Sunahme...seriously.

This bike is a bit of a project, with some work required - see notes below:

NOTES:

I) Overall, the bike is in AS-NEW condition, with the following exceptions:

i) The battery will presently not charge using the included charger. I remedied this once already by open ing up the pack and manually charging the one cell that was too low and preventing the whole pack from charging…it has happened again. The battery may or may not be salvageable, but you CAN get a new one built.

ii) The rear tire is flat. Wheel needs to be removed and tube replaced (tire is new). Required new parts (tube and rim tape) are included.

iv) The second brake disc and 8 piston caliber is all mounted on the front, but a custom hydraulic splitter and brake line needs to be fabricated to plumb it in. Presently only one disk is working on the front.

Here are the specs:
  • Brand new in May 2018.
  • Paid over $10k CDN for it after taxes (ALL options were upgraded!)
  • PERSONALLY VERIFIED range of well over 125km per charge
  • HUGE 3.5 kWh 72V battery
  • Super smooth, 12,000 watt Sabvoton MCSC72150 programmable sine wave 150amp controller lets you keep up with any traffic, effortlessly...
  • Excellent adjustable DNM inverted triple tree front suspension
  • Fully adjustable DNM rear shock
  • Top speed is over 100 km/h, cruise all day at ~50 km/h

  • Wiring connections are all INSIDE the frame for water resistance
  • Controller mounted INSIDE frame for water resistance
  • Schlumpf drive two speed transmission with kick shift button

  • Motorcycle rim and tire laced to bicycle hubs, front and rear
  • Powder coated Cadillac Blue finish on frame
  • Power to climb ANY hill...torque, torque, TORQUE!!!
  • Over-built drivetrain will last forever, and never overheats
  • A full charge costs < $0.25
You will probably never find another chance to buy a bike like this...custom built, to my own specs after more than a decade of research (I am a journeyman motorcycle mechanic)...the best of the best.

PLEASE NOTE I live near the Swartz Bay ferry terminal. If you are reading this, this bike is still for sale.

Price is FIRM at $2900 CDN, sold AS-IS.

Thanks,

Doug
