The one I bought was packaged with a nice LCD screen and some direct controls. That version is no longer available, but the one below is.

I built a custom battery for my project, and in the process found a great little adjustable voltage regulator that can be fed with anywhere from 8-60...

In another thread I was led down a dangerous rabbit hole to 7500W, and 18KW mid-drive kits from Cyclone Taiwan. In your shoes, I would be thinking about...

That trail is wild. Such a cool re-use of existing infrastructure.

Uhhhhh........ A 7500W mid-drive? That would be absolutely bonkers.

18KW kit? HOLY CRAP!!!!! That damned thing sports 110 ft/lb of torque!...

I'm with Calcifer. I'm a clydesdale, so strong forks were a concern from day one. Now that I can go much faster up/down a hill, I am REALLY glad I have...

IF you are positive that the aux. port is nothing more than a direct connect to the output wires allowing you to run in true parallel, then I don't see...

Wow! If you don't have size issues (they are 130mmX190mmX9mm), those are AWESOME! A quick check shows 36V at 60A is 2160W. With a high amp controller,...

Looks like the pistons are only on one side. You can take out the pads, then figure out how to squeeze the pistons back in. If the return hole is clogged,...

Welcome! Lots of different builds round here, so lots of different experiences to draw from.

An alternative would be a charger that you can lock into a fixed voltage. Check my build thread for my Canondale SuperV. The charger I assembled holds...

Hey Diggs UT. Good to know I'm on the right track about mixing cells. You are correct. I am continuing to amass my bounty of used cells, so I only...

First off, let's be clear I'm a mid-drive kinda guy. A concern I had about rear hub drives is that to use a gear cluster, the housing must be narrower....

[DaHose]

Seems like you are the first to use that specific frame, so you are on your own. Look at all the custom build threads. There is tons of general advice...

Pax, and Azguy are some of the bigger brains around here, and I agree with them. I think you really want to look at the Zero line of e-motorcycles for...

Do you want the front chainrings just to say you have em?

Once you have electric power, I really don't see a need for a front derailleur....

[DaHose]

I was confused by the trigger wheel having directional arrows on my build as well. I learned that direction does not make a difference, though.

My first thought is asking about whether or not the existing pedal drivetrain can handle the the full load. If you can pedal the bike ok when it is fully...

I haven't done much riding yet. I'm still slowly dialing things in. So far, the motor/controller is always doing what is expected, though. Tklop has been...

If you plan on doing multiple builds, a BBS HD seems a great first effort. I very much agree that you will want to do a first build with whatever has...
