Anyone doing videos of their ebikes in action?

This is a video taken about a year ago. At the time I was using a dual geared motor . I was running it at 48v with a 33a controller. Heavy steel mtn bike and 4 x 20ah SLA battery's. I was towing a trailer and a child seat with my daughter in it so it was a very heavy.It would slow down a little on the hills but had a lot of torque would climb anything without peddling. The motors would run cool but a little noisy. The video exaggerated the motor noise as the camera was mounted next to the motors.

I now run 5304,48a controller and 36v lifpo4 on the same frame without the trailer. i will post a video of that set up soon

The acceleration seems impressive on that bike.. i just wonder what is the speed...

lol.. when i saw it, during the first 10sec i though it was the 5304!! lol.. it was noisy !!

Start voltage was 91,2V and end was 87,3V. This is my favorite X-lyte, old x504.

new frame video in cca 30-45 days...I hope so...


90V o a 5304 is high!!! your top speed would be around 80km/h!
 
Top speed is about 50kmh at 48v.

The acceleration at first is better than my 5304. When starting off without peddling even towing a big load in a trailer it pulls very well .The short hill in the video is very steep although it doesn't look it in the video. In real life its not as noisy as the video .Its for from quiet but mounting the camer along side the motor the microphone picked up all the gear noise.

I think this set up but geared down even more to give it a top speed of about 25kmh would make a good bike for off road use.

That's a video (actually from a TV show in french) of my electric scooter I built 1 year ago...then I destroyed it in a sidewalk at more than 70KM/H(and I didn't really hurt myself :) but twisted the swingarm and axle)

Congrat Robin!!! 8) .. that was a nice review of your trotinette and .. and... future 1200lbs/ft torque ironphosphate 1/4 mile drag ev !! :twisted:

I've watched it few month ago! that was a nice interview!

For the car...It's only a dream...that hopefully will turn into a project one day! (We need a few guy like us to make a project like that...it's hard to do all this to perfection alone)

If the gokart goes well(and it should be a lot better than the electric scooter)...it will probably be featured on TV or car magazine, it's the only way to proove/convince people that Electric is the way to go!

(I'm in the assembly process of the battery pack of the electric racing go kart...it's so boring and also scary when you have plier few milimeter away from a 500 Amp short ;) I have melted 3 pair of plier with A123 so far)

Here is a wheelie short video of my Cyclone 1200 build.

repeat of links found in my stealth cruiser built thread,
video #31 was made just a couple of days ago, split in two parts.
Press the youtube HQ button for somewhat better playback quality.

The kids are wonderful, as pure and simple as any basic ebike.

Soon we'll make a kamikazee run through the sunken park.
It will be all speed and thrills and no talk.
 
:shock: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

beautiful HAL, simply beautiful.
Great looking town (Zagreb?), great trails, great ride, you must be stoked with your build, the speed is very impressive and acceleration is none too shabby either :lol:
great job on the bike, i couldn't quite read the CA readings at the end of the vid but i bet the figures look good, nice and smooth operation too, i remember the attraction of the hub again now!!
kudos, you should be very proud of your achievment!!!

Cheers,

Thanks guys, the trail is nice but have one problem: it is a park and people with dogs, joggers and other non-wheeled creatures pop out on the trail. Yesterday was the hottest day in last 60 years so nobody was there (33°C).

Some tech data: motor is 5306 controller is kelly KEB72331. max speed is 60kmh but acceleration is 3 sec to 60kmh.

Cool videos you guys! Really enjoyable.

HAL9000v2.0, I think this is best ebike footage yet. Very wicked bike, and great trail and street. Loved it.

I luv the "Uhhhhg Ohhhh" at 6:35 as you push thru the bushes. :mrgreen:
Hey you're moving so fast most of the time are you even pedaling that thing?


heheheheh i loved that too, is a sound i also make when crashing through bushes, it's almost a pre crash shriek :wink:

Great vid Hal ! :mrgreen:

What temp does reach the motor at 37Wh/km ?

Mine also often get this average comsumption between 35 and 40Wh/km .. the worst case was 57Wh / km during long mountain climb.. I needed to limit the current to avoid the motor to go over the 135 celsius limit i've determined...

curious.. mine (5305 on a 20") and 88.8V nominal 100.8V full, also get a max speed of 60-63km/h on flat.

but my current limit is still around 80A ( peak 105A) with the old upgraded 12 fet controller.. i'll replace for the 18 fets soon and hope to reach the 3sec 0-60!.. actually i get it in around 4.6sec.. but my 0-30 is 2sec

Nice job!
