I've been researching building an ebike for about a year now. I've built around 7 or 8 gas powered 2 and 4 stroke bikes and now have decided to go green. I've been looking at 48V and 1000-1500w kits. I'm 6'3" and 240lbs, so I figured in order to get 25-28mph, which is what I'm looking for, that was what I would need. I'll be using the bike as a commuter (about 8 miles to work each way). I came across this kit on Craiglist and it looked like a pretty good deal.The seller informed me he bought the bike it was on for the bike itself and wasn't interested in the ebike kit, so he decided to sell it. The previous owner told him he put about 400-500 miles on it.I just don't know what kind of performance I could expect fron this. Any thoughts on the kit would be appreciated, thanks.
Here's the ad in it's entirety with some pics. He is asking $300 for everything
Selling a used, high quality E bike conversion kit.
Most of the components are from Grin Technologies (ebikes.ca):
The motor is their Ezee 500 watt brushless motor. This is a front wheel motor, and is laced to a double-walled 700c rim. This setup can accommodate a disc or rim brake.
Control unit is the Cycle Analyst V3, which has ton of features. This particular setup has both a twist throttle and a THUN torque-sensing bottom bracket, two emergency brake cutoff switches, and Grin's 25A control unit that mounts on the seat-tube.
This kit retails for around $1000, as configured.
The battery is a Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) 15 Ah battery from Ping Batteries. LFP batteries have much more stable chemistry than other lithium ion batteries (i.e. won't explode). They are slightly heavier, but a worthy tradeoff for safety. This takes a special charger which is included. This battery retails for $423.
Check out ebikes.ca for more info and technical manuals.
The kit was taken from a functional bike, and I've labeled the plugs that were used for this setup.
