Hey i was wondering if anyone knew what i could do to fix my controller, everything on the controller is intact, all the wires are fine, after plugging in a 3 phase switch into one of the output terminals and installing a new cycle analyst the motor has just stopped working, i possibly put the 3...

Final product...

The bike couldn't be used for about 3months due to the controller breaking cuts it was a cheap one. I had a new 8kw peak 24fet controller made and it is amazing. I took the bike for a few test runs with some old lips i had and it worked great, then i decided to go all out and get 6+2 more later...

Here is the inside of the frame I am running to bike at 10ah 5s zippy lipos at the moment and they seem to do the job really well but I will get more batteries to increase the range later.

It has worked out well had a few issues over the first few months but i fixed them and the bike is stronger than ever and rides amazing. Here is the bike finished and powder coasted just need some new brake lines.

Took a nice photo of the bike this morning works amazing just waiting for some new brake lines other than that it is by far the best dimensioned bike i have ever ridden on. Any feed back on or thoughts on my first bike build would be great.

finally done just need the brake lines lengthened... has a max comfortable speed of 65kph with 4 5s lips in series temporarily until the pack arrives.

I made this frame from 1mm sheet metal and was completely made from scratch for my yr 12 metalwork project and it has taken me 6 months to complete, this is a photo of the bike before its first test run. enjoy...

The bike WORKS it is such a good feeling when a project that you have spent so much time on ends up working as you want it to, i have just sent the frame away to be powder coated, below is the photo of the frame on its first powered test run. I used 4 zippy 5s 5000mah batteries to test it and...

Anyone know a good company in Australia or China that makes good cheap custom lipo or lifepo4 battery packs around ~72v 20ah ????

Here is the most recent photo I just tried thew wheels and forks on today. If the bike works I might give the plans out but until then ill keep them a secret. ;) If you click on the photo it will flip itself around...

Here is the frame with the rear shock almost ready to be mounted. Not bad for a 17 year old with no previous experience in bike building.

Here is the most recent photo of the frame with the 6 batteries that I have so far, their is so much more room left for about a total of at least 20 batteries but it all comes down to cost and weight. The frame itself weights about 1.5kg-2kg which is a lot lighter than i thought it would be...

Sorry for not posting any photos of the frame lately. I've been so busy with tests that I forgot about the posts. The frame is about 80% complete now, I have made most of the swing arm and frame is bout 90% welded up and looking great. So here are a few photos.....

I have found that the frame is becoming really rigid, but I have decided to put some internal cross supports to really strengthen the frame against all of the possible stresses and forces the only problem is a small amount of weight is added to the frame. Here are some photos with a bit of heat...
