I was wondering if anyone here dabbled with this little 18kw monster from cyclone. https://elite-motor.com/insane-triple-e-bike-kit.html I was wondering if this would pair nicely with a enduro electric bike frame. I'm still new to the using motorcycle rims on a bicycle so if someone can link that in that would be appreciated. I really highly doubt a bicycle chain can handle the power so I plan on swapping the chains and sprockets to a #420 that being said I heard some remarkable things about the k910. I'm gonna be starting this build soon just doing my homework before starting the build and posting it here

They have turnkey solutions for eeb frames.

They will sell you just the swingarm.

This guy bought a swingarm kit. Maybe you can quote him and ask how he's doing so we can all see the answer.

The only problem with their swing arm is it doesn't offer pedals :roll: I wanna have an excuse to ride this on the road :twisted: should I just add pedals to their swing arm or use the 18kw kit using the bottom bracket :?:

Only the 4kw motor comes with pedals, it is good for up to 7kw peak and 2.5kw cont.
You could increase its continuous power by having it potted with a motor potting compound for better heat transfer, like the cyc x1 is.
Still the rpm would be way too high for you to pedal above a few kmh, but if you wanted to appear legal, probably the best bet.

Maybe look into moped law where you live, it might be very simple to insure it.

The bb kit is a no-no, unless you want to conpletely rework it. Mount is weak, bike cogs are a joke.
 
https://youtu.be/6B5-j6M9ywc that's the 7.5 kw swing arm kit but I'm really looking at the 18 kw model I just really want pedals. Would the 7.5 kw be able to reach 100mph. I'm just confused as to the hub of the 7.5 kit can that be bought because I would just add the 18kw left hand drive just like 7.5kw swingarm in the video
 
Cyclone motors aren't as under rated as QS motors, the 4kw can do 7kw peak, so the 7.5kw would be good for 12kw and the 18kw good for about 25kw max.

You can add a crank axle and pedals with basic machining, but they won't be connected to the sprocket, 10kw+ high power mid motor with working pedals, only LMX has comparable with a custom hub, with a motor sprocket on the brake side.

Even sur rons pedal kit is bad, but you can at least you can look at it for ideas.

I would also recommend against even trying for 70mph sustained with an eeb, just not meant for it. You would need to add so much bulk for the battery and mods, the pedals wouldn't be fooling anyone.
 
I was thinking about putting this on a yz 125 frame do you think it would work and still be fast. If so how fast?
