This is my custom electric bicycle. It's a 26" stretch cruiser with a triple T chopper fork. The engine is a skywhawk 48 volt 600 watt front drive brushless engine. 4 SLA batteries and the controller are located in the rear custom mounted leather saddle bags. The graphics are hand painted by Retna. On the dashboard: Leather grips, throttle with power indicator, dual rearview mirrors, Airzound horn, iPod mount, digital speedometer, brake w/engine kill switch. With all the weight, it tops out at about 21.2 MPH and about a 15-17 mile distance on a charge. I'm planning a NiMH upgrade with 72 volts soon and expect the bike to top 30MPH+

  • @flunkycarter i dont gotta ask... but since im shopping for a stretch cruiser got any suggestions, and hows urs? u ever upgrade it any follow up video tips or advice from experience?

  • CooL bro.

  • nice bike bro. I'm thinking about upgrading my 1940's schwinn cruiser in to an e-cruiser?

  • Has it ever crossed your mind to put a head light on the front instead of the basket? I know you would lose some storage capacity but it would look even sicker with a headlight. Maybe you get bigger saddle bags for the lost storage space.

  • that I have to say is the most beautiful bike I have ever seen. I love them lowriders but don't like the stretched forks so much. yours is juuuuuuust riiiiiiight!
