Sorry for bumping an old thread, but does this info still apply today? I have a 48V10AH LiFePO4 Aluminum Cased Battery (a little over a year old) and will be deploying for 6 months. What I pulled out of the thread is: My only means of measurement is my usage to work (or using a voltmeter) My...

Got my first flat... kind of... Today was a weird day, I walked out from work at the end of the day to see a co-worker walking his electric bike home with a rear flat tire... I said "that sucks" he had a ride lined up to get home. I didn't notice anything with my bike until I got about 10 feet...

Hi Beast, LOL Welcome home?! Thanks for the offer. Ever since I made the little brackets, I haven't had an issue and everything is staying nice and tight. The charger just shut off about 1/2 hour ago. I took the voltage reading. I got 54.4v straight off the battery. A little high for a 48 volt...

I only have the stock charger that came with the kit. there is no way to monitor the actual activity of the battery. Is there a (Cheap) alternative to monitor the battery? The very first charge was about 48 hours. Since then, I've been leaving it plugged in after work, and unplug it in the...

Thanks, I understand its not optimum, but it wouldn't fit the other way. With the home made brackets, its been 100%

Hello, A small a-b-a-b speed test averages to 46km/h (28.5mph) on a small flat stretch (No peddling) The bike weighs 74 lbs (33.5kg) and I'm 195 lbs (88kg) Oh, and it is DEAD silent! I really can not hear it running! Amazing! I know the battery pack is good for 30amps, but would that get any...

Al-right! so here is the (almost) complete bike. I've been riding it with the battery on the back end, and the stability is horrible! The battery does fit inside the frame but I can not plug in the charger when in the frame. So I need a means of quick removal. So I built a small rack that the...

Here is my price list: If I had to do it again, I would not get the torque arm, as it doesn't seem to work well. The battery rack I would not get, as it won't span over the 700c tire/fender properly. Should have bought the freewheel with the kit, but not knowing any better LOL - couldn't find an...

Sorry, longer post then I expected! Okay, I have the bike together! I've been learning LOTS about bikes!! I've been out on a ride, and have already had a couple of hang-ups... As you can see from the pictures, this frame wasn't designed for any power attachments! The MP4 axis kinda sits OUT...

Alright! I got the kit! :lol:

Hello all! I thought I would start this post for a little fun and to get some input as I proceed to build the bike (and for a question bank too!) This is my first ebike, and a little nervous about the build but excited about the ride and money savings (In the long run!) I'm building this for a...
