@matty63209 I ride about 5 miles one way on a 450w 24v stock bike purpose built by schwinn with a currie motor and battery kit. I’m 200 lbs and it does about 18 mph on the flats with no pedaling and no wind. I climb a 350 ft steep hill at about 13 mph with moderate to heavy pedaling. It will climb the hill by its self but it crawls and drains the battery. A little bit of pedal assist on take off and hills goes a long way.
How fast can your bike go? I am thinking about replacing the bus with a bike such as yours to get me to college and back every day (about 8 miles) It is hilly in places but mostly flat. You said the battery weighs the bike down, could the battery alone take you up a hill?
WOW ! my boss at work built one….but he used a super light cannondale i think….but that thing does 35+mph with me on it and i’m 165lbs. 100% torque, I almost threw the bike into my car because I wasn’t ready for it… LOL
For all those who say electric bikes are for wusses or lazy people, why don’t you remove the motor from your car, punch a hole in the floor and use your legs to propel your car.

just get a gas engine one on ebay. like $138 and 80 mpg. it goes 30 mph.
@macroinnovation, upload it to youtube, and share it with us, buddy!
say i have a bike how much would this cost with all the other stuff ….
Where I find this motor to buy?
1000watt? Thats a lot for a hub engine.
where did you get the controller from??
@EmoAssociation Agreed. Batteries are the most expensive and most critical component.
@h3xyournightmare I cleaned up the wires a bit since the vid.
@matty63209 Goes about 29 mph top speed on a flat.
geeze, DUDE, 15 pounds for the motor is A LOT! i wouldn´t like to propell that extra weight for a single minute!

@h3xyournightmare zip ties or tape..
Wow that thing is quick! They sell 1000 watt unit for the front wheel too! Imagine a bike with front AND rear motors!! Anybody built one yet?
@eggaweb A Flintstone car!
i want to make a ebike too, but the batteries are very expensive…(~500 $?)
