I am thinking to for a stronger controller before I drop my money on a lower turn count motor. But stronger controller means bigger dimension and so I will have to mount the controller outside like how stealth bike does it. I will take the advise from you guys, I will look into a better...

Thank you dogman, I did like you've suggested and actually made a quick e-turbo to bump the voltage to 96v when I need it with a relay toggle. I see improvement but at the end of the day I am still stuck with 68kph, the increment in speed was a little lower than expected even with almost 1.5x...

I am running 52v with 35a with 12fets controller setup. with shunt mod. Battery is high discharge cells LG - MJ1 - 28.5AH Wheel diameters are 16inch front back, running the new LeafMotor 1000w. Right now with my load on it, I can go 58kph but I am trying to go faster. How much can I push a...

Thank you for the tip! Sorry I don't use the forum alot. I emailed leafbike support, they mentioned something about the rubber ring not being done properly from the factory and that I could remove it and the sound will go away. Hmmm but what's the downside of removing the rubber ring?

I've uploaded it to youtube for easy viewing. mAYxDWx9SZ4

Hi guys, I just finished setting up my 16inch 1000w leaf motor but there's something that I couldn't figure out. At low speed, the motor kept producing this whine/whistling sound. I have attached a video for it. I tried googling about it but couldn't find much info. Did anyone encountered...

This post has nothing to do with technical knowledge. I have always been a lurker but having discovered your thread I really have to post this. Your story and experience gave me new perspective to life, in some ways I feel like I have taken many things in my life for granted. All I am doing here...

An update from leafbike, "We made 6 pcs 16 inch 48V 1000W front 3T before.And ship to Turkey. 3T may reach max about 50kmh on flat road.But not sure.We not recommend this 3T Also,if make 3T,we may use thick phase wire(3mm phase wire),it takes about 7-10 days to customize shaft. Now our 4T use...

But strangely, he knows that I am pointing to the 16 inch though based on the email conversation we had since I asked about phase wires and windings. I'll check back with him again.

Because that's the max I can do on the rear. Limitation of the frame. I don't intend to do welding anytime soon. :cry:

Thank you crossbreak for chipping in, how were you able to get that data on this particular simulation? I am not very familiar with the ebikes simulator yet. What system did you choose? I actually emailed Peter (leafbike) on the same day I posted in this thread, this is his reply. 3T winding ...

ah silly me, I missed out that part. I'll be running 48v setup.

Hi neptronix, I was looking into purchasing a leafbike motor and while researching on the reliability of leafmotor brought me to your valuable post and testing of leafmotors. If you are still active on the forum I would like to seek your opinion on my build. I am doing up a motorised kick bike...

Vito, I sent some enquires through alibaba but have not received any form of reply yet. Are you guys busy on hand?
