This Is The Tutorial DIY Video for ones looking for an easy and fast explanation of wiring, ratio, and motor mounts to construct this fast electric bike. These instructions are for the Kelly KDS36100 controller, the Currie 36v 1000w motor, a car ignition switch, and a Th-Magura throttle. If you decide to use a different throttle the colours on it may be different. Electricscooterparts.com offer many other throttle wiring descriptions, a good place to check out. The frame used in this is an older Mongoose. Stay Tuned for Future Ride Videos!

  • Cotter pin can also be a concern if you don't use something else that's reinforced instead and have it welded at each end of the sprocket. This ensures the cotter pin doesn't fall out or move around. Otherwise I would not recommend drawing any more amps than this motor is rated at.

  • It is a lasting machine if you maintain it no matter what, does not make much sense what you say. Does not take much to maintain this. Change brushes, use proper ratios, and regular things like brakes over time periods. For what its worth, its very worth it!

  • Wrong motor, this one is not loud. It is the Currie. You must have been watching my drill videos. lol

  • U been bizzy . cant wait to see it run good job
