Hello,

I have build a few electric bikes from e-bay kits.
apparently I want to improve upon 3 major things in my next build:

1 Cruise control
2 Regen breaking is not that effective
3 standard controller are for my 48v 1000w that don' give much speed (45 km p hour) so I need a more power suppled to the wheel
I have couple of batteries both 48 v one 15 AH and another 25 AH
I wander if there is a controller or even perhaps an entire kit that will give more juice that just straight 48 by 1000 also I like cruise control - it is a nice feature. also regen breaking on my bike it is hardly noticible....
Is Lyen controller include any of those functions?
Last but not least can my battery supply more ( say 60 V) then 48 if coupled with such controller? or to be on the safe side i could just buy another 24 v 15 AH battery and connect with with my 48 say to get 72 volts!?
my last build is 9 world motor apparently they are one of the most reliable for over voltage...
I know i sound confused perhaps I am.
I know golden motors Canada sell what i need but they are not rated for more then standard 48 v 1000 and they are out of stock for thier most powerful 901 kits discontinued ...
 
P.S. what do you think of this controller:

it mentions about cruise control connection wire but I dont understand how and where i could get a physical button for a cruise control...

Don't know about that controller. This is what I'd recommend. Have it customized the way you want.

I hear you, thank you man,
where would i get the hardware for the cruise control (like a button along with a throttle) and make sure that it is compatible with the controller?
Also ideally it should be easily reprogrammable say via USB cable or perhaps just this controller on the ebay it has a switch so that you could switch the voltage on the fly.
What do you think!?

You can find all kind of throttles with buttons on ebay, and just bike buttons. I used a simple push to close button tie wrapped to the handle bars for CC. There is absolutely no reason you'd need to switch voltages on the fly. For everything to work right, you'd have to change LVC on the fly too.

No reason for doing something (in some peoples eyes) never seems to be a reason for not doing it.
