  • Did you buy your electric motor from cloud electric?

    thanks for answer

  • @musician725 Yes I did Product Code: MO-36-750

  • You can't go 47mph with that tiny 750watt motor! Maybe on the bike stand?

  • This was going downhill flat ground speed is 32mph

  • can anyone recommend a good brand for conversion kits? i have a trek soho also

    Im looking for around 30mph..

    Thanks!

  • @bamptonbred I plan on putting this bike on Ebay lather this week

  • I converted my bike to electric some time ago. I've been commuting to work on it and have saved a serious bundle in gas. More than enough to recoup the cost of the kit.

    As for removing the health aspect of a bike, I still pedal just not as hard. Didn't pedal at all in my truck! I'm in better shape now, have lost a ton of weight and have a much better outlook on life.

    So really, before dogging something like this, try one out if you can. I'll just bet you change your mind :)

  • Finally someone who knows how to make a bike and a video. Good job I'll check out some more links.

  • Nice installation. Very clean and professionally done. You should sell that motor setup on ebay.

  • That's the quietest mid-drive system I've ever heard...well done! Where did you get the tube mounts that are holding the motor on?

  • The 47mph top speed can't have been on the road - I have a 48V1000W ebike running off a 20Ah lithium iron phosphate battery which goes 34 on the flat but an absolute maximum of 39mph downhill. You must have done it on the stand before you left, otherwise I'd be wiiiildly surprised.

  • @TINBITZPHAM the crank freewheels so you don't have to pedal when using the motor, so you could just leave your feet on the pedals and not have to worry about keeping up

  • $2000 is still a lot of money

  • where do you put your feet when its going 47mph?

  • the total cost of conversion of this bike was $ 2000?

  • Very nice work. Congrats...

  • nice bike !...well done
