    Ezip Trailz TNC Scooter 36 Volt Motor???

    Hello, Test ran about 5 miles last night. It is a little slower and the torque curve seems a bit flatter than 36V on the 24 Volt system feels more like 24 Volt system with strong batteries but a bit more robust than that. This is all subjective. I checked it after letting it pull me up a long...

    Ezip Trailz TNC Scooter 36 Volt Motor???

    Any body out there buy one of those bolt on replacement 36 V 450 motors from TNC Scooters. I bought one and it arrived tonight. I burned up my 24Volt motor with my LIFEPO4 36 Volt battery. Did you change your controller too??

    Thinking of getting an E bike

    It's not the underpowered part that bothers me. It's that a set of batteries is hundereds of dollars and they lose value and charging ability over the life of the batt. AND I cannot pull into a station and get more power if I am 20-15-10-5-2 miles from home and the batteries crap. I am still a...

    Thinking of getting an E bike

    The law is very muddy on ice bicycles. For the most part, THERE ARE NO LAWS covering engine assist bicycles so it becomes a judgment call. It's a bike that happens to have an assist motor on it. (Thats my story if I ever have to tell it). I have passed 5 police officers who had PLENTY of time to...
