Ebike from Globe 3T kick bike

[Doctorbass]

A good frined of mine asked me for finding electric conversion kit for couples of these future ebikes to sale to the folk.

According to our discussion i guess that a nine continent motor or the new HT motor would be fine and joining them with a good infineon controller for max power of 2000-2500W from a 48V 10 or 15Ah battery would be excellent.

This project is still on paper but i'm begining to search for the best components and EASY to assemble .. (no too much customisation) to drop the sale price and save mi time!

Apparently these new style DH bike are getting really popular in europe and now it is begining in the US.

no pedal.. heavt wheel simple desing...


here is the bike:

20" wheels? You'll want to know the rear dropout width and try to get an idea of fitting the disc? When I powered a Sidewalker 20" & 26" I used a Conhismotor 30A front wheel kit. I also built another 20" with 9C 22A.

Here's my early SLA 20" attempt:



9C attempt:



That Sherpa looks like a much better basic design - more ground clearance and strength in critical areas than the Sidewalker too. I eventually broke my Willy where the downtube meets the deck:



Since then I've gotten away from kickscooters but I enjoyed their simplicity and ease of use in congested pedestrian areas...

Those look like the down hill scooters rented out during the summer at some North American ski resorts. The haul you up the mtn on the ski lift and you ride down the snowless ski trails, hence the lack of pedals. They are definitely heavy duty and made for the abuse of off road, down hill at higher speeds. IIRC Copper Mountain in Colorado rents a full suspension, disk brake model called the Diggler DSK.

We've thought about converting some kick scooters like these... but the tough part is figuring out where (and how) to mount the batteries...
