Part 2

The motor is taken from an E-Scooter and welded to the frame in a position where the chain was tight and the motor was square to the wheel.The battery is wired with the positive to the frame and the negative to the motor giving a switch on the handlebars. Bike has a relative amount of power and travels along steadily.

I'm very happy with it, my first renewable transport, windmill charges it, motor empties it and gets me from A to B.

Thats it guys, take care and see you soon!

Part 1

Translation:

Hello Guys, as you know we are making windmills to charge batteries.

These batteries(on the bike) are 2x12volt batteries wired in series to give 24volts and that is to supply the motor on my bike with power which drives this chain which is fixed to the wheel on the opposite side of the chain to allow for pedal assist. As you can see its fixed on with some big washers.

Personally I think he should change out the battery holder and downsize the back tire! How am I doing so far 2bigpower?
