Hello, this is my first post and I would appreashate any input you gurus have.
I have been working on an ebike also and I was hoping if you can be kind to help me out with some questions on my battery build and a charging system. I have bought this about a year ago,

Installed it with some handmade torque arms and bought these...

Just like a lot of you, I want my battery to fit into the front triangle of a hardtail frame. I built the batteries into 12s 12p for a total of 144 batteries at 48v, pretty much all I can fit into the frame.
The rating of the batteries are 6450 mAH and 96 WH
I have also ordered 3 of the little 1~8s buzzer alarms and hooked them up as some sort of a monitoring system. I am thinking of buying 3 BMS boards to switch between the buzzer alarms and BMS for charginng.
I am suspect of having some dead cell(s) in my pack because it didnt have any speed, mabe 10 mi/hr at the most and it was cutting out more and more frequently.
Q could this be from too much juice, bad cells or too low a charge?
I am planning on installing a this latger controller unit soon.

I am having a hard time on configuring a charging system for it that isnt way expencive.
I plan on reconfiguring the batteries into something like (8p6s x 8p6s x 8p6s)s = 75.6v at full charge. I dont think the extra 3.6v will do any harm. I found these,

The new configuration will allow me to use old lion power tool chargers, 24v lion chargers that are cheaper and more common that a bulk 72v charger that are very expensive and to keep my options open and to be able to single out dead cells much easier as time goes by.
Q If that works, I will have to switch the 3 cellpacks back and forth from parellell into series to create 72v for travel and charging. Can you give me an idea of anything else that is less complicated?
Q Can you give me an estamated speed and range of my current battery pack and the new, higher powered configuration? I weigh 220# the bike is a 25# xc race bike I built from scratch. The bike weighs about 100# now.
I have been having a hard time trying to figure out a charging and bms system. Before I built the battery, I charged each set of 3 parrelell (what I cut all the puter batteries before building the large cellpack) on an aftermarket 4.2v cellphone smart charger that you just fit the battery into. It took days to charge all the parelell sets.
I would appreashate any input you guys have to keep me on the right track on building something that is badass.
When I install the new controller, I plan on taking some pics and a video for you guys.
