10 mW
So, new here, new to ebikes. Got a Volcon Brat for the looks/going to Dr appts/making new Dr. appts necessary/errands.
Wouldn't you know it, the hills here are just a bit too much. Left me at 54% at the half way mark. I love the frame and feel, but looks like I need to upgrade a few bits here and there.
Bike: about
Volcon Brat, 4" fat tire at about 100lbs with self rescue kit, lock, ECT.
750/1200 rear hub motor,
~14.5ah battery,
Rider: about 170lbs gear included.
I'd like to:
-peak but not sustain around 45 mph to clear some traffic points were bikes must share the lane.
-sustain around 35mph, I currently sustain 30-32 on a fresh charge, even with a... 130lb back pack.
I'm thinking, same hub until I destroy it.
60v/20-25ah lfp battery.
New controller to fit.
So far I've:
Added a sticker, a backup/rear view cam, magura front brake.
Any thoughts/recommendation for the build?
Simple answers challenge, I'm not very educated on topic. If it can't be done, it can't be done. Maintaining that "750" serial on the hub is a matter of... Importance in California.
With any luck I can do this under a grand.
