Finally made some progress on the build. Brakes: I finally got the brake bracket made and mounted on the scooter, I still need to powdercoat it. I also received the new front wheel so I’ve been 3d printing different spacer heights to get the wheel and rotor where I want them to sit. The new...

Well it’s been a while since I’ve posted last. My last project was a razor rx200 that I converted to a brushless/lipo setup. That scooter had great torque but it was small and didn’t have the range I needed. It also ate #25 sprockets like tic tacs. Here’s my new project, the Hiboy s2 Max. I...

@skippo yes, you can make the mount without a mill. I designed mine to have a lot of play in motor position. Good luck with your build. @calab I’m 5’7. What I meant by too big is: too big to be carrying around everywhere. The Rx200 is the perfect size to fit in the trunk of a car. It is also...

@skippo I haven’t seen an e100 up close, can’t say for sure. I have modified the forks of another e200 a while ago on another project, I might steal those soon. As far as a 30A e bike controller, you won’t be blown away by performance. It’ll likely have the same top speed as a 180a esc, but the...

@skippo Thanks for the reply. Yes you can run these motors on a cheap ebike controller, but you will need to fit them with hall sensors . Below is a video I shot a while back of an outrunner running on an ebike controller. You can find some good write ups and videos on how to do this on the ES...

@latex awesome man, good luck with the build. These scooters are really fun when they're this light and powerful. I've been pretty hard on it and its held up nicely. I was able to get the watt meter hooked up for a quick look at some of the vitals of the system. The street in front of my house...

Yo! So it's been a while since I've posted or built something, but I'm back. After a lot of working from home, I'm back to commuting to SF, so that means I need a scooter to get from the parking lot to the train and from the train to work, plus ripping around SF on my lunch. I still have the...

@E5j7r it's a rear fender for a honda crf 50. I think I got it on ebay for like $10. The front fender was on ebay as well, it was a little expensive, but not that expensive. Maybe they don't make them any more. I was able to put in a few hours on the chain guard and new peg mount. I was also...

@amberwolf ya it's also sharp af. @yermommy thanks for the note. That was a temp idea that has been scrapped. I should have the new setup done this week. By next weekend I should have a chain guard and new roller configuration. I'm also modifying the peg mount to be stronger and out of the way...

Finally got all the parts in and did the last bit of fitment to go for a test ride. So far I'm pretty happy with the results. Top speed is around 44 mph, pulled just under 12kw, 350A phase, 100A battery. There is still some tuning and some tweaks that need to happen, but pretty happy so far.

Got the waterjet parts today and was able to get the motor mount welded up. I also made a spacer for the rear hub which will shift it outward 30mm to get me in the ballpark of where I want the chainline to be. After some mock up I got the motor clamped and bolted onto the bike. I'll going to...

Made some progress on the build, but still waiting for the rear sprocket, hardware, and steel for wrap up. The swingarm has been extended to 8 1/4" it pretty solid for a test ride but will require more work for the abuse it will see. The waterjet sides also weren't done so I have the acrylic...

@ trazor thanks man! I wrapped up the cad on the side mounts this weekend and managed to make an acrylic version to get an idea of how it will look. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out and am planning on getting them waterjet so that I can make the mount out of aluminum. There will be some...
