Absolutely. Just take it easy on the amps, the wiring is thin.

thanks mate what would be a safe value for the amps ?

you can go pretty high as long as you dont throttle too hard, tons and tons of people run 72V 40A pretty reliably. I'm running a similar thing but with 200C 12/10g power wires at 100V 60A.

shoot i didnt take that in, for 1kw+ front wheel you want no suspension and dual torque arms. rear wheel is always best.

relatively slow. i think the top speed for 48V is 48km/h on that type of motor in 26er, so 36kph. but it varies on the motor winding and battery sag.
