Scotts other (Less deadly) electric bike. Full Details Here: www.oldvcr.tv This one has a DC Hub Motor capable of 750W max. Its powered by 3 12V 18A batteries in series (36V). The controller is a cheap simple one that has been beefed up a bit. With out assistance from pedals it does around 32km/h.
300 yards!
I want this bike, intereseting how long the battery live
That sounds like fun! I am thinking about getting an electric bike, but it’s more costly. They are around $850-$1125 where I live.
Very good!!!!!
Louder than a standard bike…you dolt. know whats quieter? WALKING… careful thats dangerous too…
I’m wanting to get a bike with alternative power, I like these, but I’m looking into getting a 50cc powered gasoline engine kit, I know a bike shop about a mile from me where I can get a new bike with the engine for $350, and the owner proved to me that speeds up to 30 mph carrying a 200 lb. man on flat streets were possible, not only that but 40 miles to the half gallon tank thats on the bike, thats pretty good considering the speed limit on most of the streets around me is 30-35 mph
the speed is awesome,but too silence could be danger.
fast and nimble nonetheless. great to see a low-mounted battery; such a help.
I’ve got to deal with a 15lb. LiFePo4 in a rear rack basket: not bad but hardly ideal.
Good video. Thanks!
cool!
it is not really 750 W
just 750 W max
my 250 W motor has 830 W max
Come see my channel, I think you will all be suprised. Hub for me, no go, wasteful. Shove it on gears and proper ratio, very useful.
You have one message :/
i have a 28″ 48v 500w hub motor in the front wheel, and i have measured 48 km/h.
thats pretty slow for a 750w bike.
We had no bike helmet that day so can’t take it on the road and it was during work time so can’t stray from the office for too long.
great for going back and forth. What you scared of taking it some where?
Nice bike. One word of advice though. The battery is in an unsafe location, could crack it going off a curb.
