Hub Motors

-------------
Crystalyte
BMC
9 Continents
Bafang
Golden Motor
Magic Pie
El Cheapo Ebay
Ebike-kit

Non Hub
----------
Currie/Unite
Cyclone

I added ebikekit
I like mine

 

[dogman dan]

What I said, was added to the top post, but I wasn't too clear,

Fusin, a gear type hubmotor. Mabye a sub category just for the planetary gear motors?

 

[GrayKard]

Hub Motors

Ezee
Cute aka Ananda
E+ (motor in one hub, batteries in the other)
Amped 3rd gen. geared

 

[Demosthenes]

Ezee

(Non hub)
Stokemonkey
Ecospeed

Now would we be listing manufacturers or resellers? Cause Magic Pie is made by Golden Motors, and Ebikekit uses Nine Continents. There are a few other re branded ones to.

 

[dozentrio]

Manufacturers are now bolded and resellers or individual products are listed underneath.

Hopefully as people post, the list will become refined and the details will fix themselves. I know it's not perfect right now, so post your corrections/additions

 

[ripthesea]

If you want to add prices and where you can buy them:

hub motors
e-bikekit.com - 36v (500-750w / 20MPH) / 48v (up to 1000w / 24MPH) -$230
hightekbikes.com - aotema 750W (1200W max) + controller + battery bag + throttle - 319$
arizonaebikes.com - goldenmotor 1000W + controller + throttle - $315 (I wish I could find a US dealer that carries the Magic Pie for comparison)

It's what I was planning on doing, but your list is already more comprehensive.

 

[AussieJester]

RC Motors

Astro 3110 3220 (there's another but if forget the model)
Turnigy HXT Series

KiM

 

[mrzed]

Ezee, BMC and cute (ananda) move to geared hub. Bionx to hub (should be retitled to direct drive hub).

Ezee also offers complete ebikes.

also for complete bikes:
izip
optibike (though silly expensive)
scwhinn
panasonic eneloop

I would clarify the non-hub categories as non-hub kits vs bare motors - very different things. Possible category further for kits that drive the gears - important consideration for many.

 

[dogman dan]

Ezee, 9 continent, stokemonkey, and crystalyte are sold by ebikes-ca.com

Bafang , sold by Holmes Hobby, is a gearmotor.

Once this thread matures, it should be moved to the reference section. Just the header post if possible.

 

[DSX]

www.sdelectricbike.com has Golden motor kits including Magic Pie for $399 + delivery.

 

[kriskros]

puma .. geared hub ..also from Holmes Hobbies

 

[GrayKard]

Now that you have added complete bikes.

A2B Metro

I think they have another model, but that is the one that caught my eye.

Ya gonna throw in motors that mod well eg Fisher & Paykel?

 

[dozentrio]

I think it's a good idea for us to put any information, so long as it isn't confusing or gets too difficult to sift through. Too cluttered is bad. I know there's already some issues with how it's organized, but I hope at least it'll give people searching a good starting point.

 

[Mark_A_W]

You forgot the MAC Shanghai geared hub motor.

[dozentrio]

Is this really all there is out there for electric bikes? Surely there must be more full bikes that aren't on this list yet... rack your brains, we must build a repository of knowledge!
