    Vector vortex Ebike build with dirt bike suspension

    Went for a nice and muddy ride. Looks like I need to print a better fender.

    Vector vortex Ebike build with dirt bike suspension

    It is very heavy. Weighed it on a bathroom scale and it read 210lb. I haven’t found this to hinder its performance except for making it hard to move around. The bike still slightly scares me. As of writing this I still have yet to push more than 100 battery amps which is only 50% of its...

    Vector vortex Ebike build with dirt bike suspension

    Finished the battery last week and took it out for its first ride. I’m super happy with the power, suspension, brakes, and really everything. For the past few days I’ve been riding with 50 and 100 battery amps set in the controller. Evan that has been an insane amount of power for me. It will...

    1000lb. Seems to deal with the weight pretty well. With a passenger it sits pretty low. I had the 750lb mtb dnm spring on my last bike and it seemed way softer.

    Yep, bought a harbor freight press to install a1 1/8 stem. Easy as that.

    Vector vortex Ebike build with dirt bike suspension

    I have seen Ladi’s build with the nuclear controller but didn’t find it until I already bought the power velocity. I may upgrade in the future for the extra 100amps and smaller size, along with the lcd display. The yz front end slackens the geometry out a bit which should result in the bike...

    Yeah very heavy. I think it will be around 160- 170lb when it’s done.

    Vector vortex Ebike build with dirt bike suspension

    The usd 8 was too soft. With the large battery in my bike weighing it down, the suspension sat very low in its stroke. It was not suited for off road riding. The bicycle brakes were another thing that held the bike back. The moto forks are much stiffer to support the weight of the bike and offer...

    Vector vortex Ebike build with dirt bike suspension

    I definitely agree not to go with the qs273 (mine actually had an axle for 150mm dropout. 200 amps is not even close to enough amps for that motor. The winding on my motor was 3.5t which got me to 60mph but not very quickly. I would definitely spring for torque over top speed. It makes for a...

    Vector vortex Ebike build with dirt bike suspension

    Hey guys, this is my first post so hope the pictures work. This is my second high power ebike build. First was with an eeb frame, qs273, and 200 amp PowerVelocity controller. I learned a lot on that build, and had a lot of fun on the bike, but there were many things that really required...
