NVM, why save now after all the expenses right? Gonna get a Trampa Vesc 6, 80A continuous is more than enough for what i'm building. Undecided on the motor but probably will go on an Alien C8085. Will post later!

Very late update as promissed. Due to covid and layoffs i got spare time for the last 2 months and decided to go forward with the build. Here's a small video testing the build: https://youtu.be/fEJ3AHD_zI4 After realizing the 3 stage mistage, i changed it to 2 stage, and on the bench it...

Guys, don't think i stopped posting due to having my answers. I just like to research by myself and try to find my best options. Only when i can't figure it out i do ask questions. Also work is heavy and doesn't leave much time to spare. I've researched the chains, will go for the KMC X8...

Thanks for the help guys, it is mostly very good roads, i dont want to go 23c tires but wont go 50c too, its a 18c Rims, i will go probably 35 or 40. So, 8S 11-40T cassete, Xt derailler ( can get it cheap), KMC chain. Any alternatives to the Luna freewheel crank?

Yeah, i don't do big aceleration, i just need the top speed. I was under the impression that both air and rolling resistances were small at that speed. I just decided on a road bike because their geometry should be better / more stable that MTB for road and high speeds. Just a hunch mind you...

Greetings all, After reading all the troubles with bike chains not handling the load of a mid drive e-bike ( the one i'm mounting), i was wondering if i should go a 8S cassete for a thicker chain. I will probably go with a Luna Cycles freewheel crank, XT M8000 SGS derailler and an 8S cassete...

Hey guys, would love to mount 2 rim motors on my 2000kg sedan. Could i get some advice on what motors to get from QS?

I'm giving up on the single stage power transfering, i would need to get a very large sprocket. Stay tuned as i do some math on what to do next! Any idea on why my motor/controller are behaving like they are on full trottle?

So i tested the motor again, the sand paper jumped out almost instantly! Did not use the fan yet. Made the interface between a hall trottle and the rc controler. Much easier to use than a pot. I was able to hit 48 km/h with 95% trottle using 1800w. However at 100% trottle the motor wines a bit...

Just added a fan on the motor to try and cool it of a bit. Also adding some thick sand paper on the traction wheel to prevent it from slipping and overheating (right now covered with duct tape to dry the glue) Tomorrow will mount it again and test it!

Hi there, First of all sorry for the long delay, the job is quite unforgiving and i just feel like sleeping alot. I have dismantled the motor and support for some photos: That is an aluminium wheel with the shape of the tire and some cuts for an extra grip. I dont have a tension there, i...

Hey there, it would be still kind of small i think, isn't the lowest sprocket for the motor a recomended 13 teeth? BTW here's the motor: https://pt.aliexpress.com/store/product/RC-Hobby-Brushless-outrunner-Motor-C6364-KV230-1224344/704742_536661094.html?detailNewVersion=&categoryId=200001407

Hi guys, A long time lurker has yet decided on getting his hands dirty! I have been building and testing my bike. Right now its a friction drive, with a 50mm piece of aluminium diameter that frictions with the tire. Some data: -a 6354 RC motor with 230 KV and good for 2800W -120A HV ESC, the...

Hey friends, Decided it was time to buy a bicycle, and adapt an electric motor to it. Petrol is getting too expensive. The idea is to save money, so i'm trying to save were possible, but mounting a 1500W motor on a 50$ brake less bicycle calls suicide :P Help me picking up a ride. Here's what...

Arlo1, could you explain me why theres a phase current of 240 amps, wich equals to 80 battery amps? Shoudn t it be 80/3 = 26.666 amps per phase?
