unlocking bionx/trek bike

[rathawk]

Hi, I am looking for some information on successfully unlocking the max speed governor on the bionx system. I am thinking about buying a trek/bionx bike and want to be able to exceed the 20mph max speed limit. I dont need to do 50mph. But if I could do 25-30mph, I would be happy. I tried searching this forums but didnt find the info I am looking for so I apologize in advance if this information has been covered already.
any and all info is greatly appreciated, thanks!

Old information might not work with new models?
Ask the bike dealer that you thinking of buying from how to disable the max speed limit. Tell them that you only ride on your own land. Off road only.

I am the bike dealer, I see this as a potential market with huge growth opportunities. And, I want a bad ass ebike for myself. Thanks!

rathawk,

The easy route for bike shops is the bionx. All parts in a box. But it is not the best option. Partly for the reason you need help. Also it is much easier to compile the various peices that create an ebike that you want. Bionx is take it or leave it. And it is much more financially effecient away from bionx.

All members of ES would agree that a quality source for most needs is http://www.ebikes.ca/index.shtml

Good luck

Why start your journey beyond 20mph with an expensive, low power, proprietary system?

Start tinkering with better, cheaper, more powerful, and standardized set of stuff, just like everyone here on the forum is doing.
