It blends everything bad about both an ebike and a motorcycle. It's slow for a motorcycle. The smallest motorcycle can blow past the top speed shown in this video of around 72mph. Its acceleration wasn't good either. But it's not a bicycle anymore or anything close to it and would, if allowed on the road at all, require registration and insurance and a custom inspection. The base bike this was built from is already more expensive than a decent and MUCH faster and better used motorcycle before adding thousands of more dollars in batteries, and controllers and other stuff.
Damn dude im so jealous! I got my custom e bike stolen a month ago, it was everything to me.. I know what this joy is about and i know i will keep it up till im gone. Amazing build!!
300amp controller.. sweetness. I want one! Thanks for parts list.. 299!! Lol Nice build! Esc important in getting power didn't know made. Thanks brother!
I doubt it holds up with stock rotors, or you're slowing down really fast. Test the braking distance from full speed. If you can't slow down fast enough from that speed then it's useless on the road unless you want to die.
@@Tojoblindeye for some reason he doesn't acknowledge it but he did end up putting beefier rotors on that bike. So yeah apparently he figured out that he might die. He might have even figured out that you can't assume that regen is always going to be there for you.
everyone so worried about the frame. the frame is fine as long as he doesn't crash. only cracked frames shown was cus a crash or something dumb. just riding isn't going to crack your frame. a surron is an aluminum frame as well but going fast on that is fine? until someone comes out and say their 72v+ kit frame crack from high speed everyone needs to shut up about it. thank you 😊
Great specs but be careful hitting those speeds on that frame/hub. I want a Sur Ron but 50-60 mph on those light frames are sketchy enough. 2 sets of tires (street/trail) for all types of riding. I imagine my tail tires would stay on the most, even on the street.
I think due to Super 73 being a status symbol in the world of e bikes id rather weld a frame based on that style then you would know yourself it was safe to ride at those speeds I've gotta say though that bike is amazing looking!A real eyecatcher
I feel like still referring to this as a Super 73 is giving them false credit. Yeah that’s the platform he used but this is a different beast completely.
@@aeskellion just wondering what would you find unsafe? pretty much it has motorcycle parts that in those they got almost double the speeds with no problem so just wondering why you thinking that? because it really is not fair to say something without elaborating on why you think something.
@@dreamkiss4u there’s a sticker on the front fork saying you shouldn’t ride this thing faster than 60 kph, that’s about 40 mph. That’s one. Two, the frame is known to snap on stock bikes. Three, if you look at brakes on a motorcycle even the 125cc ones there heavy duty compared to the RX which comes with bicycle brakes. That’s why I’m saying it’s not safe.
Sick bike man this is what makes me wanna get a junk frame of a motorcycle or a pit bike an slap a big battery in it and motor but need to do a bit of info searching I don’t wanna get the wrong controller and battery but man I want that 60mph in a slim pack like his bike 👍😁
Yeah build your own if you've the knowledge otherwise there's a lot of decent controller out there. I would buy instead. You should be looking for a good battery builder. Good luck..
Also, what’s Jay Molina’s info?? I’d love to follow this dude on Instagram or wherever and see updates/ask questions :-) like final cost, total new weight of bike with the mods and battery being fully finished, and if he’s willing to build bikes for anyone who’s interested in something similar. Thank you!! 🙏🙏🙏
When I saw the first video, I was skeptical on the top speed and the range. But, this newer video details the much increased battery size and AH. You should try to add a little aero so your drag would be less amongst other factors. Would the suspension allow for greater travel?
That is a BEAUTIFUL bike but what is going on w/ those back spokes¿? I don't like the way they look at all.... But I'd definitely take it for a ride. LoL Edit: This is exactly what I want to do in my town but it's difficult to find people that want to do the same thing... I found a couple of people that want electric bikes but they just want your bike but they don't want to pay for it. 😩
@@jaymolina9777 yooo man, I hope all is well ! Since we spoke I have upgraded my bike … I now have a rocket! Upgraded my Ariel rider Xclass to a 72v system 72v70ah mollicel 100-120miles range reaching 70+ mph … I am very satisfied 😁⚡️
The spokes on that hub motor are the only insane thing. What on earth is the angle you are cutting with those things? You need dimpled rims to pull that much of an angle.
@@rolandroland1485 No, he's right. it's dangerous, as these are bicycle spokes that can't handle those forces plus they are bent to hell making it worse
should look into moped rims, they have slanted holes so the nipples doesn't have to come straight out and bend those spokes like that. Lots of ebike were doing this with 17" -19" moped rims. I guess everything wants Sur Rons so its not really an issue nowadays.
hey man i just got my own super73 RX, and want to model mine after this beast 🔥 could you let me know what kind of mid panel / side panel or any other aesthetic accessories. thanks
Now this is ridiculous 🙄 these guys ride this diy bikes for last 2 years and you feel like you are smarter than these guys that did the testing and come up with this note sense. Bravo Elias.
@@ElectricVehicleSpace You say I am ridiculous? You accuse me of thinking I'm smarter than them? Not necessarily. I made it very specific statement about the ability of those brake discs to stop that bike from high speeds. You're criticizing me for that comment. You said these guys rode that bike for two years and somehow magically I knew better. No, it's not magic. I'm not smarter than them. It happens that I have designed and built three solar powered vehicles. But no one needed that detailed experience to recognize at a glance those brakes were too small. All you needed to know was that those are the exact lightweight brake discs used on a mountain bikes that weighs 40 lbs or less. Those brake discs perform well stopping a total load of 200 lb from 30 mph. It does not take a genius to figure out stopping 350 from 80 miles an hour would be a little less than thrilling. So to confirm your suspicions. My statement still stands. And now for the punchline. Did you see he took my advice? Seriously look at the discs he has on his bike now. They are not the same are they? Sorry bro.
@@FEboats there is some amount of Truth to what you're saying about regenerative braking. It does help. However from a design perspective you cannot ever assume that it's going to work. It might be safe to assume that using your regenerative brakes we'll make the brakes last longer. Making that assumption would be safe. However, say you're doing 60 miles an hour this guy says that bike can do, and you experience a motor controller failure, or simply a loose wire on the battery or any multitude of other problems that would cause the motor and motor control system to be briefly inoperable. If you assumed that you would always have regenerative braking then you might die just seconds after you realized your mistake. Don't short cut on brakes. Besides, if you look at his bike now you'll see he took my advice. I would not criticize his current break choice without at least riding the bike first.
I tried the city grip 2 110/70-16 and they are off balance and were wobbly on one side. Tire fit funny on the rim. Is that me? My son did play with it prior to me going to fill it up with air. Maybe that the issue?

That’s the most bad ass super73 I’ve ever seen! Keep it going man
You are 💯 absolutely right. Thanks
I watched this video 10 times. I dream about making builds like this
I'm glad you loved it.

Amazing build!!
Dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That thing is a certified monster!!!!!
it is but you can get a DRZ400 that goes close to 100 and probably cost a lot cheaper then to do this kind of thang
Wow! should mass produce that.
You would have to add some sort of noise device to it
zak is wrong because of the pedals it requires no further mods insurance or licences
considered a motor assisted pedal bike
and the super 73 is mass production just not the mods hes done to it
@@CarsTVCanada it depends, but this bike is illegal in the US since it's passed 750w and 20mph

Let me know how your breaks and rotors hold up! This looks awesome, stay safe!
Its holding pretty well, i have variable regen braking with stock Hydraulic brake. Stopping power is really 👍🏻

I ride an ebike and to be honest I look forward for the future 👍🏼 they re mind blowing fast
Awesome build, that 3000w motor has some torque so I hope that frame can handle it, I'm glad he's the guinea pig lol
Lol
12000w ebikes are more fun and stable.
I’d be more concerned about those rear spokes handling it!
