New electric mountain bike frame by Phasor Cycles

[ohzee]

Yea - that is a lot of money to me , but if it looks as good as I think it will It's very very tempting.

[Drunkskunk]

So would you be willing to sell one just like that? Bare metal and no side covers? I might want to be an early adapter.

But I'd want to weld in my own battery trays and cable guides, and I think I'd like it in a brushed metal finish and clear coat it my self.

I'd be willing to be a beta tester if that frame will be compatible with what I'm planning.

With all the price hating, i just wanted to say that if the bike preforms as well as it looks i WILL be buying one. With all the money ive spent with this hobby, im fine with $1350. Even at 1500 you can still build something better than a bomber for 1/2 the price. Lets not forget were paying for his time as well. Without profit there is no reason for him to build. This is America, right? (for some of us:-) )

Cant wait for a tested, finished product. Just give me the word and ill send funds! Hell, i already have my powder coat color picked! I might even get ghosted realistic lightning bolts airbrushed in.

Freshly dipped in antifreeze...

More to come soon..

[o00scorpion00o]

Looking good!

Btw, what would it cost to ship to Europe?

[dpearce]

This color is crazy, it looks different from every angle, it doesn't really come out in the pictures though. It is all together and ready to go, I am working on getting the battery pack together which might take some time, still getting all the parts together.








Shipping to Ireland is estimated to be around $200

Looks like one sexy a$$ machine.

[Deutch420]

I think it moved.. No, no.. It defintly moved!

Ill send you a pre-wired 100v 20ah LiPo battery pack so you can get beta testing that sexy machine faster! im serious, just take it off my tab!

Looks awesome!

Faster, faster, faster!!!!

[o00scorpion00o]

That's the dogs Bollocks!

photobucket is blocked for me (and i'm sure a ton of others) at work...
just see broken images in the last post. any chance you (or someone else) can upload to ES?

[o00scorpion00o]

That's great colour and will make you a lot more visible on the road.

The cheapest 200 mm forks I can find are around 600 Euro's on chainreaction ?

Rear shock is about 350 Euro's.

I can't wait to see how the BMC holds up to abuse!

I think you would be better off mounting the controller outside ?

[BlackArrow]

Dpearce,

Wow, love it

Good day!

Awesome work! I love the color

[snellemin]

Great looking bike. Color just pops mang.

[pwbset]

Coming together nicely!

[damcard]

Very nice. When do you think these will be available? The tread on those tires is almost flat with that wide rim. -Damcard

[SHiFT]

A Lamborghini color for what is sure to be a lamborghini of an e-bike.

sexual.

Looking good guys, +1 on the colour. Is it painted or powder coated ?
How wide are those rims and tires ? The tire look almost too small for the rim!

Time to go abuse it and make sure it doesn't break before starting mass production ?

The cheapest 200 mm forks I can find are around 600 Euro's on chainreaction ?
Rear shock is about 350 Euro's.

I'm sure the guys at phasor could negotiate a better price from other suppliers on suitable gear for a bulk OEM order. The greyborg team managed to get a significant reduction on suspension prices from retail to supply with their frames.

It's a work of art.

The pride of accomplishment you must be feeling would be fantastic. To build something like this from a few pieces of metal by your own hand is outstanding.

It cannot possibly feel as good to ride as just to look at? Or can it.....????

I am a fitter+turner, and an electrician, and my hobby is wrecking/restoring classic muscle cars - $1500 to me, looks like a bargain, $600 for front shocks, $400 for rear shock, then your choice of elec combo, say $2000 for motor, controller, batteries, (Hyena kit???) and $2000 on things like front wheel, tyres, cranks, derailers, brakes, odds and ends - Full-Custom for about $6500?? (Is it even possible to spend US$10k)Thats Ferrari ebike, for Pontiac GTO money, IMO.

Can somebody smarter than me (most of you) have a go at working this out please? A basic one (Say 3kW, 50k range, and 6kW 80k range?)

[o00scorpion00o]

I've got one suggestion, rear mudguard rather than use the usual mountain bike useless ones ?

[dumbluck]

that color is sooo MINT. great work I wish I had the coin to place an order today.

It looks like changing to mid mount motor would be possible.

Regarding the V4T:

I've been beating my own V4T on the roughest, most technical single track than I can find; I take large drops, jumps, all manner of sharp and large rocks. The V4T has taken everything that I can throw at it and doesn't mind at all.

All mileage done on a full 8" travel DH bike, and only 1kW power. I'm using the power to shuttle only, hence the low power needs. This geared motor can climb like a goat, even at 1kW.

Highly, highly recommend this motor for off road riding.

WOW!!!

How did I miss this thread!!!

You guys have just built a frame that I have been dreaming of and making random sketches of!!

AMAZING JOB!!!

I LOVE the open frame design, and that sideways "arrow" design with the frame highlighting the outline and black panels in the middle really make for a top notch look!

LOOK OUT OPTIBIKE!!

I think you have just produced the best truly sexy production E-Bike frame yet!

I'm gonna have to figure out a way to save up the cash, that is the PERFECT frame for a off-road E-Bike!

Now lets get some video of you thrashing it around on the same DJ track in your previous video!

[Whiplash]

Wow! Just Wow! How much for a finished/powder coated frame just like this?
