yes, a brushed controller at 36v will work fine, up to 30 amps if you don't push it too hard. at 48v it will run pretty hot so unless you are really light weight it may fail easily but will run well while it runs.
ok thank you. i want to put it on a ezip i have, its missing the rear wheel and motor but i have the battery and the rail that holds the batter pack. was planning on using two batter packs. do you think i can get at least 20 mph with a 30a controller at 36v?

You'd be best off to use a 36v 20 amps controller, though it will run perkier with a 30 amps.
You have to really watch overheating these motors, and yes, 36v 20 amps should get you to 20 mph. The original EVG had a controller in the 20 amps ballpark. I vaguely recall it might have even been less, like 18 amps or something. Look way way back in threads by Gmouchawar for the best info on this motor. I think there is a link to a manual in the tech reference section.
Regular brushed controller will run them. Scooter parts stores are often the place to find brushed controllers nowdays, or Ebay.
