Old mountainbike parts I put together in lack of better things to do.
Motor Unknown Permanent Magnet DC
800w scooter motor
DrivetrainChain
Controller Unknown
The original controller I got with the 800w motor
Batteries3 Biltema , 12.00 Volt, Lead-Acid, Flooded
They should have been for free..
System Voltage36 Volts
Charger Unknown
36v 1,6 amp
Top Speed25 MPH (40 KPH)
This is with me helping, with this speed I can continue until the batteries start to lack of power but I cant go faster because the motor are close to its top RPM here.
AccelerationWhile pedaling really good
RangeDon't know, haven't pushed the limit yet and not sure I ever will.
Seating Capacity1 adult
Conversion Time1 week
Conversion Cost200$
I feel this bike eats current or I simply got the worst batteries ever. Gearing should be ok and I help pedaling and still I feel like every electrical thing I made so work better then this one. Could be inefficient motor/controller or a little bit of everything, I know the wiring is bad, was just something to get it running quickly so I guess I'm to blame for its poor performance.

I believe this bike will be short lived in favor to another more fun project for me but somehow I couldn't stop using it.. weird..
