I just purchased a used ICE recumbent trike with an older Crystalyte X-5304R72-D motor. It’s a rear hub brushless motor. Specs are 390 rpm 20A 48v. It’s a heavy trike as the motor is 23 lbs.! I’d like eventually change the motor. It came with a rather heavy/large 13”x 6” x 5” 36v 15ah battery and 36v controller. I’d like to use a smaller 52v Luna Wolf battery so I can lighten up the load and move the battery to a better location. The current battery uses a lot of real estate as its strapped to the back of the seat. I weigh 195 and ride on paved and crushed rock paths, sometimes on packed dirt. I occasionally travel up some fairly steep grades. I realize that I may need a new cycle analyst and throttle. I do want the capability of adjusting the settings and also want to use full throttle if needed. What is a good smaller controller to use that can handle the 52v battery?
