Your Creation's Before & After Pics

Well it came together pretty well. Nina did a great job modifying the battery bag. Next up, build a battery box into the frame.

What a type of lights did you use? Have photo with turned on?
 
Here is the light.

It's really bright. I mounted a little handle bar light on so I don't blind pedestrians at night.
 
Here is the before pic. I don't have an after pic, as I don't have the items yet.

And after, but not quite fully finished. Pondering a battery box behind the seatpost. Nearly finished, side view.jpg

Motor is from E-bikekit, a 6x9 winding direct drive kit ideal for cargo bikes and tandems.

Hi folks, first post as a noob, first electric bike build.
This was something I really wanted to do, after first seeing Stealth Bomber ads and thinking "Yes please"!
The bike I selected (CBR "Supermoto") was more about the frame than any other component, as it uses a box section 7005 alloy Y-design and I thought it would be very beefy but also easier to bolt components to as it has flat surfaces. As it happened, almost ALL the other components were cheap crap anyway, so i set about replacing them with decent DH bits.

After 888 forks, Sun Ringle rim / hub, Cane Creek 40 headset, Shimano Saint 4-pots, Fox Float R, Crazy Bob's, new seat (yet to be fitted) and a few other bits & pieces like nose fairing with 3200 lumens of Cree headlights, the rolling chassis was ready.

Now the tricky bit - getting the electrics fitted and working - as an electrical theory newbie too, I am entrusting the initial fitting to Simon Askew of "Tank Bikes" (based in Northumberland, England) who is a electric vehicle battery specialist and an E-bike enthusiast.
Hopefully this part will take a few more days and then I can post "after" pics showing the final configuration. Once I have got to grips with the theory, I'd like to modify the frame for a bigger batt. compartment and make it look more integrated.


I'll be using Unknown Chinese make direct hub, 3kw, rewired / waterproofed, with Lyen 18FET controller, 58.8v 15ah LiPo pack, Cycle Analyst v3, regen switch on rear brake , 3- position power switch to help fend off the "5-0" (set for 15mph, 25mph, 40mph approx)
Updates as soon as I have 'em.

Thanks for a great forum everyone - I'm learning a lot. Chris

Update - controller, fairing, lights, tyres, CA3, seat etc all fitted, new battery about to go on. Sun is starting to show itself!!

I can't really see the bike (trike?) properly, with all that stuff (waved-over light?) over the top of the picture. Could you post some better pictures?
 
Here's mine. 2010 Trek 4300 non disc brakes. It used to have a 100mm lockout front suspension, but I snapped it when I had a 48v 1000W hub motor on the front (I hadn't read up on the importance of torque arms). Fortunately I wasn't hurt and didn't go down. I replaced it with a steel fork with the intention of still using the front hub motor, but decided to go rear hub instead. Honestly for the kind of commuting I do, I haven't really missed having suspension and I still have a Cannondale Jeckyl FS bike!
I modified my Currie battery box to hold my 3S 18.5v Lipo batteries and carried it in the center part of the pannier bag, I recently installed a mini laptop bag in the triangle and now the batteries reside there.

AFTER:








 
Before, Norco Shore, 4 bar VPS rear, Fox shock.

After, BBS02 and 48v 11.9Ahr Samsung 29e inside inbuilt case, and a fresh coat of Camo powdercoat. Need to tidy up the cables and its set for big drops.

And it's only around half-done, but here's it's present state (except an x5304 is now in the front wheel), except the kennel isn't bolted down yet

so it really looks more like this...where you can see what Yogi and Tiny think of it:
