    Manufacturers and dealers to avoid

    I read this guys thread before they deleted it on the amped forum. I think he didn't know how to explain himself and that's what caused him to explode. I have had nothing but excellent service from AmpedBikes for close to 4 years now. He sent them a nasty letter about how he was on some...

    E-Bike Advice for Newbie

    I also suggest Amped. They fixed all the Nine Continents problems in their new kits. Also patented the disk brake adapter. The DD are a good motor and from Lightcycle's reviews the geared motor rocks as well. I think the warranty thing is about liability insurance. I would talk to them directly...

    What kit to buy next?

    Thx Dogman Ill check out the world wide bike's kit.. Im on a limited income at the moment, alot of layoffs etc. Besides Im not too keen on the thread on disk brakes. I hear they never really work and always have to be adjusted. Ill stick with caliper brakes for now.

    What kit to buy next?

BUT.. There are alot of new kits out there and I really want to explore my options. I...

    RETAILERS AS MEMBERS?

    I agree a good product sells itself :D :D :D :D I too am sick of it. I normally browse a couple times a week but lately it just turns me off. I also would like to suggest checking IP addresses as I would imagine some retailers are logging in under multiple user names.

    my ampedbike kit review

    . There are some customer reviews of Amped's new geared motor on their forums. They were selling a 27 mph geared motor (48V) which in fact was wound wrong. But their liability insurance did not cover it so they sold all of them to a local dealer. The correctly wound ones from what I have read...

    E+ 1000W?

    This is the approx size of a 1000W motor. It is simply bad business tactics to flat out lie about the power of an e-bike. Just my opinion. I have a golden motors 1000W kit and they simply shunted the speed controller to accept higher currents. Why cant people just be honest?

    E+ 1000W?

    This is funny. They raised the current in a 500W motor to appear to be a 1000W motor. I posted this on the E+ forums and it was deleted immediately. A true 1000W motor would weigh about 35 lbs. Any 500W motor can be a 1000W motor simply by increasing the current like BMC, E+, Golden motors. Bad...

    my ampedbike kit review

    Danny is saying on his forums that he tried to work a deal with bafang but they were more interested in selling their product than manufacturing and he stumbled on these guys that manufacture only and modified a 350W to 400W which apparently has so much power that they are modifying the speed...

    Torque arm for Front Hub Motor Review

    I use the amped bikes torque arm. It fits all kits and there is no need to clamp a wrench or add an oddly angled torque arm to your bike

    E-Bikekit.com 36v 10ah LiFePo4 Battery

    I think at this point everyone knows golden motors is about the worst kit, the worst battery you can buy. Not to mention the complete lack of customer service or complete lack of caring about anything but making a buck. Kudos to ebikekit batteries. IMHO golden motors is about the worst people...

    E-Bikekit.com 36v 10ah LiFePo4 Battery

    Yeah there's definitely some major govt problems right now. AIG spent all of our money! I vote myself in to regulate these guys! So whats the difference between the ping pack and the ebk battery? Besides the duct tape obviously.

    E-Bikekit.com 36v 10ah LiFePo4 Battery

    Ping makes consistent excellent batteries. Almost zero problems http://www.pingbattery.com/servlet/Cart?searchpath=23179 $200 cheaper. I would choose a ping.

    my ampedbike kit review

    From what I understand Xlytes have changed to a sensorless controller. this last year.

    my ampedbike kit review

    The C-lytes chug because they use an inexpensive sensorless controller. It basically uses an algorithm to find out where the motor is in relation to the magnets so that it does not start in reverse.

    Buy AmpedBikes or Crystalyte

    No, amped is only selling the 9x7 fast windings. Danny said the 7X9 is too torque'y and raised the speed of all kits by using 9x7 46 kmph at 48V http://www.ampedbikes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=190

    my ampedbike kit review

    Still running my ampedbikes.com conversion daily. It was raining pretty hard and had to drive the car a few days but still in love. I am thinking of buying one of the new ones that have the fast windings for a friend of mine.

    What does the pedal assist feel like? how does it work etc?

    Buy AmpedBikes or Crystalyte

    Dang that sucks! Yeah they were going back and forth about different windings and finally decided on the faster windings. Somewhere on the amped forums I read that the old speed controller is limiting rpm's. They have a new speed controller that is usb programmable so that at 48V or 60V you can...

    Buy AmpedBikes or Crystalyte

    no they are changing all to 9*7 for increased speed. In the general forum. I now have front and rear kit from them and just ordered 5 more to get dealer prices. My amped kit completely blows my buddy Genes crystalyte (407 I think or what ever the standard is) away at 36V, I have more torque...
