Well lets see. My first Ebike was a GT Tequesta with a BD36 on 36v20ah Nimh pack. So my next bike I wanted more. OK I wanted a lot more so I went all out on my next purchase. For the bike I purchased a DiamondBack Response Sport. See Pic Below. The bike store I bought it from was "Fast Bicycles" in SanJose. I went there because of a referal from a friend. I never even knew it existed. They went out of their way to modify the bike for my needs. They changed the rear disks to V-brakes since the Phoenix cant use disk brakes. They took off the knobbie tires and installed nicer Hybrid tires. They took off the hard tiny seat and changed it to a nice Gel seat with springs. All at no cost. Last but not least they gave me an extra 25% off the rack and paniers I bought. In my opinion that was great service from a mom and pop bike store.
For motor I decided on the Phoenix 26" Rear Hub with 7 speed cassette. The Controller I will be using is the 36-72v 35amp controller from the Poweridestore. I just ordered the 48v13ah Nimh from Batteryspace.com. Hopefully they can put out enough amps to get this beast moving. More pics to come with hopefully some Video at the end of this build.
