yeah tru, but my cruiser is gonna be 150+lbs
and able to do 50mph
soooo
Lol
Baa
S
BaaS?
Basically a motorcycle
Sir are u a sheep in disguise
Shhhh
I'm building a new build with a 29er
nice
once my bmx and cruiser are done, im butchering the fatbike
chopping its ass off and welding on a swingarm
switch it to 72v
give it pegs
I'm going to run a bbshd with an after market controller
nice i have a bbshd i blew up
Lol
it sits on the shelf judging me
fat bike uses a cyclone3kw
cruiser uses a lightning rod (can handle 10kw, but limited to 7,5kw cause battery limit)
I want to get a cyclone but I just can't afford it lol
not worth tbh
I have been looking at the cyc motors to
its a rough motor
it uses old tech
they got more modern motors with half the size, dont risk shucking its magnets at high rpm, and can use Sine wave controllers out the box
Sorry other way around
I want to get a cyc motor but I can't afford it
get a LR smallblock
its ncier üòÑ
or the big block for more powa
What's that
from left to right XL, Big Block, Small block.
power levels: 20kw, 10kw, 3kw
Ohhhh
Lightning rod
how it looks with the Middrive kit
Seeeeeesh
yeah its super nice fit
guy knows what he is doin in the fab work
That looks hella nice
Were can I pick up a 3kw one?
msg him in the High Voltage discord to customize the order
they all use the same mounting pattern
just wider motors
How hard are they to install
I have only done a bbs02 before
That was hella ez
havent gotten to it yet, but about the same as any externally reduced kit
slide in BB, bolt on parts, secure motor to frame
Seems easy enough
it will take u about a day
with tuning and stuff
I love my bbs02 but I am wanting some more power
like making everything line up, making sure all the stuff is snug
What is the pricing like?
about 600 or so for the kit, minus controller
sick looking
i kinda wanted belt drive on my conversion but to much hassle to fit it vs just chain + middrive
Do they drain the battery that much faster than a bbshd?
At same speed
Depends on power settings u use. They are bigger, and are rated much higher. So if ur using 3kw or 10kw tune yeah u use more power. At the same speed and terrain and everything, no u use same amount of power to maintain speed. But in reality accelerating etc u will use more power
^^. Different motors in the simulator result in about +-10% range difference, and more commonly just +-5%, if you drive at the same speed
Its when you go faster that your range goes into the toilet, reguardless what motor you use to get there.

Do note that large motors may be rather inefficent at small fractions of their power output, especially at higher RPM's
So don't get a 10KW motor if you plan to only drive around at 500W
But a 2KW motor and 500W motor prob use about the same amount of power to give you 500W of output
Anybody here experienced with votol em200 controllers?
Like to fine tune it
Been pushing my little Kelly 7230s lately, it's got some decent constant torque ability, just not so good at capacitor hold and battery pulling...
In Seattle area it is getting a run for its money on these hills lol, 80km/h up like 10% grade and that voltage drop is a big enough hint to know that power is massive
80 is already powerful on flat against wind, add huge hills and, god
But that little controller is quite good at doing stuff like ridiculous grade at 45km/h
the funny part is, those hills.. once you get to 80kph, the hills don't matter so much anymore
because its hard to compete with that much aero drag üòõ
Iv got some moderate hills around here that are a pain in the ass to bike up.. like most people just walk their bikes up because its just such a long ass annoying grade...
bike does like, 50kph instead of 60kph up them lol
Yeah yesterday I think I finally hit the DC power limit of the controller lol it dropped to 75 with HARD voltage drop
Massive hill
Then right after it dropped into a ginormous downhill. I put my boots on the passenger pegs and rode down sportbike position, got to 90/h with zero throttle...
Probably to do with the scuffed batteries morenthan anything
nothing wrong with my current packs in there. The highest resistance is the dual 8awg into the controller
So what I consider fuck off you consider moderate?
My fuck off hill brings a 3KW e-bike down to 30kph and is difficult to walk up for unfit people, yes, lol
(25% grade)
Oh no fuck that shit right back where it came from
Yea my pickup truck can't even break the speed limit on that hill
(at least not, going up it... Or going down it, if I want to live..)
I'm not religious but Satan I rebuke that back to hell
lol
that's a cliff, whose idea was it to put a road on it
@molluscs Dunno, but you'd have to drive like 2 miles outta the way to find a way onto the other side of the cliff without taking one of the 4 or 5 roads that all are 20%+ grade
Tbh, I'd love to try a 25% grade just to see if my ebike can do it. I've done ~15-17% and the bike handled it, but 25% is quite a bit worse.
The answer appears to be *"technically yes, but..."* lol
And I just messed mine up, if you look slightly above your recent posts :d what's the battery your are running it on? Noticed any degradation in your packs yet? Do you usually use limited dod or just milk it full to empty?
iv done a hill that was 45 degrees. granted it wasnt very long. but it tanked it well in 3rd
