So basically I bought the voila kit and have been riding on my merry way for the better part of a year, but I'm now trying to get more speed out of the motor (I've maxed out around 26-28mph and need 35+ to keep up with traffic, but the higher the better)and would like to simply upgrade the battery (from 48 to 52v+) and the controller instead of both of those AND the motor, since I hear tell that it can handle 1500w operations anyways with the controller being the limiting factor. What I need to know is whether the generic 48-72v controllers on eBay will work with the motor, as some of the ones I see say in terrible Chinese that they don't work with "hall motors", which I assume means motors that have hall sensors?! I am not a grease-monkey and the terminologies are confusing to me, What I would want to know is if there's a specific controller that people use with this hub motor and the 52v+ batteries and had good results, or help me understand better what I should be looking for.
Any additional tips for this project in terms of heat dissipation etc. would also be greatly appreciated.
Here is the kit I got, it was the front wheel version:
