Damn. Somehow you've managed to make 20" wheels on a full susser look good! Congrats 8)
Looks like it will be a fun ride & a wheelie machine!

Its looking great mate and should be a plush ride. 
That pully looks a bit vulnerable in case of a right side down dumping, but I guess that will never happen :wink:

Cheers guys.
Here are those pedals, well, lets call them foot pegs.
I welded a bottom bracket cup and the threaded end of a steel crank to a 80mm length of 38mm stainless tube.

I've made some progress with the battery and controller mounting. I'm using the same lexan material and set up that I used on my Giant NRS build.

I have basically finished the battery box now, other than covering it with the carbon fibre vinyl which should be in the post.
The box appears fairly large however it all feels fine between my legs, not too wide.

I have now got this bike running, well thrown together, so I can test the belt drive and idler pulleys.
The original set up with an idler on both sides of the belt proved to be no good. I couldn't get the belt to track correctly and stay on the drive pulley so the tension side(top) pulley had to go.
So I had this.
And now I have this.
This involved some more modification to the top chain stay so I could get a straight belt line.
Some material removal.
And some material addition, this is some 6mm plate shaped to fit inside the chain stay.
Plate inside the chain stay.
This is welded in and partly ground smooth, still a little rough here.
I decide to add some material to the outside as well, this is 4mm plate bent 90 deg and shaped.
Then welded up.
Now I have a straight belt line.
This is how it all looks in testing mode.
Now how does a Cyclone 3000watt motor go on 66volts and 100amps?
Unbelievable! This thing is a monster at 6500watts. The front wheel was lifting just with throttle ie with no help from me pulling back.
Loads of torque, it doesn't seem to slow down on hills and the speed is right where I calculated, 50kmh or just over, I'll put a speedo on soon.
I have only ridden it for about 10min tonight so I still have some small things to sort out, but it gave me a sizeable EV grin.

Sick! Nice job!
Where do you source your belt-drive components? (minus the custom giant sprocket

This is all very exciting! Im curious to know the saturation point for these motors (and whether or not you've surpassed it), as well as what sort of power bursts you find the motor can handle repetitively though a full battery's worth of technical trail riding (safe thermal equilibrium point)
BTW, Nicely resolved dropout clearance issue... alu welding certainly opens up possibilities. should be more efficient too. Beaut job!

I like this bike!
This motor sure looks interesting, plenty of power to boot and rugged build. Testing it to destruction for us?
I see you did a motorcycle type brake levers setup, should be standard on all wheelie prone bikes

Can you tell me please where you got the wheels and tires? ......they look real nice!
Are they intended for trials?
How much for the rims and tires do you remember?
Thanks Wayne

Hey Wayne,
Here you go.
This is the rims.

These are the tyres, I have the 2.25 width.

This one is on the back burner as I used the battery from this one for the cargo bike.

Ok a year has passed since I last worked on this bike, I lost interest after burning a 24 Fet controller.
So I dragged the bike off the back burner last week and fitted a new 24 Fet and did some bench testing and discovered that I must have had a false positive with the phase and hall wire combinations.
With the rear wheel off the ground,ie no load, it was pulling 8 amps which I thought was slightly too high. The motor got quite hot with in 2 minutes like this.
Through trial and error I found a combo that pulls only 1.5 amps no load, stoked! But now I know why I burned the other controller.
I finished the battery cover and went for a test ride last night, I haven't done any programming on the infineon yet but it's pulling 95 amps at 70 volts out of the box, simply awesome! It power wheelies no trouble and spins the rear in sand. I've only run it for about 5 minutes and the cyclone motor is not too hot so far.
Here's the latest photos.
