It’s a powerful ebike but unfortunately it is not Street legal in Canada. (500 watt 32 km/hour limit on ebikes in Ontario) Comfy seat as I upgraded from stock. Before you build be sure to decide what you think you will be doing with your ebike. A midmotor is more practical for off roading.

Bought second hand from eBay.

First buying frame and than piece by piece, thru axle motor adapters custom built, 3D print and hydrographics… Etc

I discovered Barrent Hoffman threw a contact on FaceBook / endless-sphere forum, and am very happy to show everyone how great of a job he did building my e-bike. He is a great person to deal with and very easy to contact at any time with questions or decisions. His website “KinayeMS” has the best motors and parts for sale as well as he can and will custome make a bike for your needs.

I put a bafang bbs02 on my existing bike. Have gotten up to 30 miles on it, and still did not have a dead battery.

First of all, I do not speak English, the need for translation software, may not be accurate, as well as language habits, may not understand, please inclusive. Thank you.
I come from Xi’an, China, a top city in the world city PM2.5 pollution, it has 3500 years of the city, the prosperity you can not imagine. We like to call the United States a “beautiful village.” In addition to only a few super-big cities, other places like China’s countryside, of course, this is a beautiful country.
I like the quiet wind blowing, because only then, I will feel like a star! Ha ha ha. But where the wind? San Francisco seaside rain, while the Florida beach, some far … …. I finally found a way to ride an electric bike! It is always quietly carrying me, although the speed is not fast, but enough to make my face feel the fresh wind of Lafayette ………… I was running around the king! Haha

I had a scooter with a razor E300S before. I really liked it. It was small and strong, but it had too many drawbacks. The motor drives the chain with a loud, no shock. In particular, endurance, it makes me speechless, I sometimes have to go out in the street store to recharge, really thank those kindly clerk. In addition, my scooter, seat screws can not be installed, this is a very dangerous security risk, I had to return.

Talk about the car, it is the E300S alternatives, tires are wider than the average bike, Wal-Mart supermarket to buy, 99 dollars, made in China, no obvious shortcomings, of course, you do not expect it how powerful it After all, not a tank car. In fact, I now feel no need to buy a new car, second-hand very easy to find. Taobao to buy electric car kit, because there is a battery, so the mail over two times, a long time, shipping is expensive. The power manager shell in the kit is very ugly and ugly. I also bought a triangular package eBay, I received a slight change after a bit. As the battery is huge, I had to remove my front transmission, not to mention its use is not frequent. Because the original car tire bad, I will upgrade it. In the replacement of the rear wheel when there is no suitable tool, no way to remove the original gear, I help a bicycle shop, a motorcycle repair shop, the clerk is really unspeakable! Warm, sincere, both the boss or employees. Are very sincere to help me, though eventually did not remove it. Helpless, I had to buy a new gear. Can you imagine? 20 dollars, almost in China can buy a normal use of new bike. Because the RMB devaluation, 20 dollars to buy a bike shop owner may also give you a pack of Marlboro. Ha ha ha This is a joke, do not take it seriously.

The overall calculation of all the costs, a total of 687.5 US dollars, at the same time, I carefully statistics a bit, all of this electric bike all parts are actually made in China. Well, it feels good, after all, I am Chinese. Riding a Chinese car is also nothing wrong. But this is really too expensive, in China, the same configuration, cost only about 250 US dollars.

In China, very few people change their own electric bike, I will not, I have long had its own car, tell the truth the United States is really too cheap cars, oil prices are too low. But I prefer electric bikes. Because the Chinese concept of consumption is not a single use, there are things outside the use. Such as shopping in the social circle to show off as a capital, a symbol of luxury as a status. This is very sad, a lot of people also made a fortune. … … So come to my United States, I choose my own favorite. Anyway, no one knows me. Not to worry about other people’s wink to do things.

A few days ago I almost sold it, because I accidentally in the eBay auction to get two very cheap electric scooter, front and rear shock, I originally intended to sell the electric bike to upgrade I will get the scooter. After the release of the online replies that I was in the Louisiana state riding a bike scooter is illegal, and at the same time, I actually met a liar! The seller is a liar, I do not pay payment, to see the state yesterday, the seller actually sold, and check the seller information, turned out to be the United States! I am now complaining to eBay. Do not know the results.

On this car, there are sad. There is love and hate.

I only know that I can not sell it. This is what I see in the YouTube channel you know this site, great! my love!

My bike is the best haha

The most difficult thing is to make the box for the battery.

Maneggevole leggera bella da guidare….autonomia 40kl circa,bici da città ottima per le faccende quotidiane…di personale non c’è molto visto che e un kit gia completo…di mio c’è l’assemblaggio….a me piace la prossima sarà migliore ovviamente l esperienza impara molto…

Added a GeoOrbital pre production wheel to my 25 year old road bike!

This is a commercially available Sinner Mango velomobile with 170 W electric support and 11-speed Shimano Alfine gears.

Hi there, it’s a chro-mo dirtframe, a Manitou Black fork, KHE handlebar and stem, Profile racing crank, Brooks seat, 50mm wide rims and KHE mac2 bmx tires.
I wanted to keep it as simple as possible to have a lightweight bike with very low maintenance

The cost includes 50 bucks I paid for the bike although I rode it at work for 12 years before conversion. When I put the motor on, you could buy an ezip at Wal-Mart for $400. I bought the setup from Bikeberry. It comes with everything if you need it or not. The motor/wheel/tire come as one piece which eases a lot of pain. I chose the front wheel setup for ease of installation–not recommended–front forks rarely are built for the stress.Why, in all the articles on ebikes does no one mention that BICYCLES HAVE 8mm DROPOUTS AND EBIKE WHEELS have 9 to 10mm AXLES !!!! I had to mill out the dropouts to get the wheel on and there wasn’t a lot of “meat” left on the fork. If you must use a front wheel motor put on a torque arm or the motor will spin its axle and ruin the fork. Other than that–flatten the hills and enjoy the breeze!

From Fully Charged Electric Bike Shop, I was astounded at how nimble and lightweight this bike was to ride. It looks fantastic with the integrated battery and it covers the daily 15 mile commute with ease.

I bought this bike off a crusty Marine in Monterey, California in 2013 for $89 on craigslist. Using an Xtracycle Free Radical, it was converted into a cargo bike so I could carry the kids around. I installed a LEED 250 Series Electric Bike Conversion Kit. The battery is carried on the frame in a Revelate Designs frame bag. This protects the battery from bumpy rides and keeps it dry in bad weather. This bike has become my go-to commuter that I ride in the Washington D.C. area to and from work. It can carry all my gear as well as the kids and it is a fast ride. It’s fun to pass morning and evening commuters. They have no idea it is an electric bike!

I bought this through the Freway Ebike kickstarter campaign. The Bike is a pedelec only (has no throttle,) and it’s spec is EC legal so obv US legal too.
Bike feels very underpowered if you’re used to throttle but is perfect for assisting me in getting actual excersize on my Ebike, as opposed to just commuting on it.
As well as being best on the trails, due to being much lighter than any of my other ebikes, but also has great specs for it’s price.
The frame is Alloyal in the new 650b 27.5″ size, instead of the usual 26″ and it has a decent front suspension shock by Suntour, xcm w/lockout, QR skewers on front wheel with 160mm hydraulic Tektro disk brakes. It features mid level Shimano specs, inc 27 speed front and rear deore derailleurs plus shimano crankset, but the battery pack is a lil small at only 5.2ah!(but I do have 2 of them, and the low amperage controller means good mileage too.)
It has a great external battery dock, that allows me to gain further use of my battery to power my cellphone even my laptop (I had to buy the matching HP DC tip though,) through the Dock as well as having a built in 3w led light (and kinda useless alarm sos mode.)
It’s also has built in pack powered front and rear lighting and is capped by a nice 4.0″ touch screen display to control everything. It also has a bar mounted switch to sequentially cycle the motor power assistance levels from level 0 (just you) to level 3 (max power,) without touching the display mid ride.
I must say it’s the most bike like Ebike I own and it grows on me with each ride.

I bought this kit and battery from china, Nothing special yet. I havent modded anything nor have I ever had any issues . It has been snowing and raining all over this bike and I have been taking it 10 k a day to work and back and for about a 75 km venture on the weekends, it runs great. Best investment of my life !

I bought this from a dealer that seems to have vanished from the face of the earth. It had a 200w motor in it which ceased to work and know one knows how to fix ebike motors here all they do is replace, so I did it myself with a Dillenger Kit. My wife uses it to take her elderly father (87) around the town as he has walking difficulties. The dog also rides for free.

Started with a mint 2008 Trek 4900-($ 175.00)–added generic hub motor kit-then upgraded to a real controller to add about 500 watts (I’m 210 lbs.) so I needed some extra torque–top speed is all I care to ever go on a bike–helmet is a must riding one of these……Huge fun–my first E- bike !!!! Not my last–Rob

Started with a Motobecane FB5 2.0 Fat Bike. Installed Vee Snowshoe 5″ Tires – hydraulic brakes – BBSHD 1000w mid drive – reduced the chainring from 46 to 42 – teeth – Thudbuster seat post – Hobson Easyseat @ Saddle with sheepskin cover – Electric horn – Bells – Garmin GPS 1000 explore with headlight,left and right turn signal/tail lights – custom rear led lights in mud flap – Garmin rear radar – Bose mini Bluetooth speaker – Pono music HD Flac file player – Rear view camera and 5″ monitor – ultrasonic dog repeller – nice grips – rear cargo rack – kick stand – and I fabricated an aluminum adapter on my C+C machine so that I could incorporate a NuVinchi 360 into a fat bike rim!
I can go off-road up Steep Hills,and the cadence is still good so that I can petal whenever I like.
Now that the weather is getting a little warmer in New York State I’m riding and smiling every day.

Took an unused Batuvus frame, bought a lot of second hand stuff including an electric donor bike with a broken PAS and broken battery. Did the paintwork myself and it took me 6 month to collect all the pieces which I found interesting enough to install.

Bought a new gravity full suspension bike and ebikeling 60 volt 35 amp controller kit from eBay. Batteries from hobby King Very stable at full speed but it’s crazy heavy. Not very easy to pedal with no power but it’s crazy fast. I cut the down tube out and welded in the battery box, all other parts are off the shelf from eBay or Amazon. I absolutely love it, couldn’t be more fun to ride.

My Bike is a Vector/Evelbike/EEB styled custom build… I started this project as an enthusiastic Newbie/Novice E-Biker, I hoped the build would provide me some insight into the machine I’ve learned to love and therefore the ability to repair the bike myself without running to a ‘shop’ every problem… Little did I know the education I was in for, sooo much to learn, grasp and understand if you wan’t a successful and SAFE build. I relied on and in the experts in their fields as I found them on ES forum and other places and promptly lost myself in 1’st the different setup plans, logistics and company parts ordering and then the build process as it all arrived. Documenting my process throughout, I found it necessary to make many unplanned mods ‘On the fly,’ as problems presented themselves, but the build progressed and came together 🙂 Unfortunately the weather seems to be turning colder now here in NYC so testing will prob be limited… but I’m certainly excited for it…
The bike features from the top …EEB frameset, Hussefelt truvativ comp bar with adj stem 60 deg …zoom 680 DH double crown fork, DNM 200*55 twin chamber air shock, custom lyen edition 18fet controller, custom 72v lifepo4 batt, Maxxis high roller 2.3 tires and thick tubes, enduro guard mud flaps, 3 led cree nightlights, CA v3 with thermistor hookup from motor, remote dropper seatpost 150mm, zoom dual caliper hydraulic brakes with Motor cut offs/regen line, seperate ignition switch wired with the 1500w newest leafmotor with upgraded phase wiring, factory attached 10k thermistor, upgraded 10 gauge spokes laced to a 26″ bike rim. Vector performance kick stand and normal/decent wellgo pedals.
controller is mounted under the frames batt box and protected with a modified rectangular thick walled 3*5″ card file storage box, with a built in locking/sliding divider wall, that seperates and contains and stores the excess wiring too. The box also houses the Spst (2 position removable) ignition switch. Inbuilt battery charging is handled by a hidden anderson connector housed in a hidden wiring gap space above the BB housing.

The original Raleigh frame was a legacy from my ex step dad. Piece by piece I added the ebike components, Zzipper fairing, xtracycle bolt-on cargo kit, and recently, a Bikes at Work trailer setup. The bit-by-bit approach made it more affordable.

The fairing makes the bike somewhat faster, increases the range, and makes it lots more visible at night + comfortable in winter. This is a practical car-replacement and mostly does regular day-to-day stuff, except it’s more fun and you can stop for a bit to watch the crows chasing each other around the apple tree up the road. I ride it for everything from grocery getting to hauling a trailer with my shadow puppet teaching supplies across town, to cruising between my jobs at different schools…

I built this e-Bike from electric bike kit from solarbike.com.au. It’s special because I charged it using solar panel, so free fuel for life! http://epxhilon.blogspot.com.au/2015/04/cheapest-commuting-challenge.html

bought as complete Berlin Cruiser with 250w 36v 10ah in 2014 i stripped it back to frame/seat/seatpole/rack and replaced every other part.
now it houses a 1000w 48v 12ah power-train with 120mm forks, 2.5″ maxxis holy roller tyres, 46t single speed front cog, 7-speed shimano Xt rear derailler.
im not satisfied with it as it cuts out under load if i accelerate too quickly. its been suggested that my battery is not up to the task so i’ll be looking into that very soon. apart from that, if i build speed gradually its fine, reaching a max speed of 50-52 on flat road in still weather… which is nice 🙂
im currently fabricating a new headlight and fenders, incorporating 2 small but bright red LEDs into the rear fender, which both plug into an ex computer speaker box on the drink bottle mount via a 6mm guitar jack. also built into the speaker box is a bluetooth speaker (charged via the bike battery) and 2-port usb outlet to charge my fone on the fly.

this ebike was buit 15 years ago , owner never drive it . The nimh battery was out , I bought a lithium battery .

I’m an ebike enthusiast from Singapore. Found this guy selling ebike kit in Gumtree. He offers selling and Installation but decided to do it myself. This one is a front wheel drive that you can really feel when the motor kicks in. Tested and approved to use in Singapore road with LTA tag attached. It’s really a fun ride alone or with my 2 toddlers, front and back. It’s also built with a Bluetooth speakers for real stereo sound from my cell phone. Really love this bike.

Base is a TREK 2014 Rumblefish pro. Im using a Backpack-Battery, which is more comfortable as you might think!
At the moment im going with 84Volts/18Amps /1500W, but i can increase both V and A up to 2500W if needed!
There’re quite a few custom made parts, from controller-holder, Battery Connector / Cable including anti-lightning-resistor to 2 massive both-sided
torque arms…
I’m storing the bike in my living-room in a custom bike stand, including a place for the backpack and 2 LiIon 10s chargers.
Due to the backpack-battery the bike remains quite agile und makes it very smooth and fun to ride! i love it =)

Too much fun.

Was a kit, and I installed it. A rear wheel unit and had to wait to get the battery. Pretty simple setup. Goes about 35 mph, or 56 kph

Piece of shit – all done on the lowest possible budget. Most expensive part were batteries at $70NZ and a new 36V charger at $30 NZ.

Bought from Greenpath Electric bike shop in downtown Brooklyn NY. Bike is a Kayman Flash+ which I was told was ‘dialed down’ to 350w and came with a 36v 10ah (maybe 12ah?? I don’t really remember AND I’m a complete Newbie at this) Samsung sourced battery, in 2 ‘hidden in frame’ lockable bar form battery packs and a 42v 2 amp balance charger that takes like 4 hrs to charge and balance (a more than half full pack.)
So far I’ve installed wireless signals and a g sensor brake light and a couple different pannier bags, inc One front and center for some storage, a useful rear view mirror, a MUCH needed comfort foam, spring suspension saddle locks and alarm and a cellphone/gps mount. Behind me on the saddle’s rear mount I’ve put a summer necessity (4 Slurpee addicts @least.)A Bell Drink holder 😉
I haven’t followed thru with my plan 4 a new controller for a lil more ‘oomph’ but am holding off on serious mods until I understand all “this” a lil better. Until then I really look forward to my daily rides, (It’s basically retired my new Accord but big deal!! its leased ;p)
I’ve also since, plunked down some cash for a Cutler Cycles Fusion, which is being hand made in Cali at the moment, pics and stats hopefully as soon as I have it.

This is E bike # 14 and the 8th fat bike to date keep selling them for some reason more fun to build ? its a 2015 mongoose Malus i have built gravity fat bikes with bafang 750 mid drives but the gng drive has more power low down to tackle the hills at our motorcycle club and is much faster, i also have done front hub motors and rear hub motors but on a fat bike mid drive is the way to go i think, a 30 degree hill is no problem at all don’t even need to pedal have done steeper giving it a little help.the gng is much easier to mount only have to make the stock bracket wider to fit the bb make spacers to get chain line correct hook it all up and go done ! also belt is as quiet as the bafang units i have used in past,front suspension forks make the ride great also, thanks for checking it out happy trails

I bought the frame and built this cargo bike up from mostly recycled parts.

Built me an electric Yuba Mundo-I love my baby.

BBS02 fitted to a Cannondale Trail 6 MTB.
Used with a pair of batteries on forest trails or with 6 batteries on the road for up to 150 miles range (current longest run 101.2 miles).

Working in Africa and want to explore around and go drink some beer at the near villages without sweat a lot, I need something not to expensive I can leave at my depart. 4-5 years ago I bring a petrol engine to do the same use.
Again it was easily fit in my luggages.
This time I was lucky enough to put my hands on an “expat bike”, strong and light.
Little work et voilà! not so beautiful but like the wife said: it’s fit the décor and do the job.
It’s a real crowd magnet.

The “Urban Assault” is our Flag-ship ebike. It is our test platform for the products we sell. And it’s really fun to ride.

25 mile range on throttle. All week running errands at 50% PAS

hello everyone, I’m 43 6’2 big bloke,love my kit, 250 watt front hub is more like 500 watt peak bursts, stacks of torque, more like 40nm than (20), my mongoose tyax elite weighs just under 43lb, best item I’ve ever bought. Truly an awesome machine, can be pedaled with ease without power, never ran the battery dead, I known how to look after lithium cells. Awesomeness, E-Bikes for everyone.

I built this bike as a touring bicycle. It’s built on a Schwinn frame with 700c wheels and is for a 1,000 mile ebike touring trip that I have coming up soon.

I built this ebike for my wife and she absolutely loves it. The tiny Q85 250 watt motor is more than enough for her (though we don\’t have any hills around here) and gets her up to almost 20 mph. It also has a nice balance of weight with the motor up front and battery in the rear. She keeps the seat nice and low so the battery weight isn\’t up too high either. The original battery is down to about 6 AH from its original 10AH after a little over two years of use, so we\’ve got a second LiFePO4 battery for it and the ebike is still going strong. I\’ve really been surprised by what a workhorse this little ebike has turned out to be.

This is my daily driver which I built to be reliable but not necessarily beautiful. I started with a used Merida mountain bike with 26″ wheels. I keep the battery in a Ibera triangle frame bag to keep the mass centered. It makes a huge difference vs a rear rack mounted battery.

For an ebike that gets to 30 mph with a light tailwind and has a 20+ mile range (and has a lithium battery), it was surprisingly cheap to build. I’ve modified the stock controller by adding a Cycle Analyst connector and bumped the current up a bit from the stock 22A, though I usually limit the current on the CA to 15A, which can give me over 25 miles of range with no pedaling. All in all it’s been a very reliable bike for the last year and a half.
