  • @chizno 8 miles 48v 4batteries of 12v12A at 24 mph i'm 197libs

  • @FireBallThePony Sure :P

    BTW, you can still pedal on an electric bike. It increases your range and top speed, especially on hills.

    They're pretty cool, when built right.

  • @neptronix does dancing in a car count? lol

  • @FireBallThePony

    Actually an electric bike is a replacement for a car and not a bike.

    How much excersize do you get in your car?

  • @packjim56 yes.

    I am 250lbs and ride a slightly less powerful motor than he. 20-30mph up 5% grades. 38mph on the flats.

  • @459am You've been doing electric WAY wrong.

    You can build an eBike that recharges in 30 mins, does 60mph, and has 60 miles of range or greater.

    2 stroke stinks like shit, sounds like shit, and makes you're riding it because you got a DUI.

    Seriously, the emissions from those are worse than cars because they waste fuel and burn oil BY DESIGN...

  • Needs lipos and more volts, son.

    You are only pushing about half of what that motor is capable of. I am disappointed ;)

  • I came here to listen what the motor sounds like, and all I got was gay music.

  • Lazy fuck....

  • @ChaosmanOne not too far. Using lead acid batteries. Maybe 5 miles max.
