Great build and be aware that the Ozark trail bike’s bottom pedel sprocket will get lose no matter what and definitely upgrade the gear system, I have the bike and let’s say it’s a pain to keep the components on, besides that love the videos 💯
Happy Father’s Day E-BikeGuy👊🏾 Love what you’re doing Sir! No e-bike, but I’m inspired by your knowledge and the overall good vibes happening on your channel💪🏾🎯💯
You convinced me to build my own. I bought a ebike that’s ready to go but I’m stripping it of everything and building it back up. I really like the frame of the retrospec valen rev+ got it for a good deal through my work. Think it’s going to be either a 3000w or 5000w not sure I’m a bigger guy I really just want good range for food delivery
Some advice as a 220lb guy riding a DIY 4kw ebike: Your range drops drastically with speed, wind resistance burns most of your power. But its fun to go fast... My battery is 72v 12.8ah. I built it in a "DP9" battery case, the largest "normal" looking 18650 case I could find. I've got a KT 60a controller that will pull over 4kw peak but I keep it limited to 2kw on the throttle and I usually run 750w on the pedal assist. Top speed 60km/h but I usually keep it around 40-50km/h. I haven't range tested it exactly, but my guess is that with my riding style where I mix the pedal assist and throttle however I feel it gives me about an hour of riding time before I need to recharge. I can tell you for sure that if I was doing food delivery I'd want it to last longer. It lasts much longer than that if I don't touch the throttle, just use 750w for going uphill, and then drop the PAS level even lower when I'm going flat or downhill. Riding like that I could probably double my range or more. Bottom line if I were doing food delivery and I wanted to be out for hours, I'd probably double my battery size or carry a second battery, and I wouldn't want to ride too fast. As for the fun factor, It's pretty good, but I often wish I had a just a bit more torque just for taking off from a stop. A controller with higher phase amps would probably fix that.
Greetings from London. UK! i got a 3000w 72v just put a small windshield on it even though it looks kind of ridiculous. I got it off a kids toy motorbike and it's a perfect fit, and it sure cuts down on wind buffeting above 30mph!
mad props and much respect for your channel and your continued creation of diy ebikes & videos. I have been assembling and riding bicycle frame ebikes for 3 years. You have exceeded my capabilites and knowledge. I have turned to your videos as a source of information as some of my inferior equipment has expired and I needed data to move forward, upgrade, and improve my riding experience. Your passion & fabricating skills are top notch. When my NBPower controller(s) suicided themselves, I upgraded to Sabvoton. Thank you for your Sabvoton controller programming video. That information allowed me to program and ride. I will never purchase NBPower motors or controllers again. I have had 2 Sabvoton 7280. The first one operated for 9 months. The second one operated for only 51 miles. I am done with purchasing Sabvoton controllers even though I remain impressed with their performance compared to the NBPower controllers. I am waiting for a Fardriver ND72360 controller to arrive as well as a new 26 ah battery. Once again I will rely on one of your videos to get up and running. I use my bike for fun and for work. I am a sawyer who operates a chainsaw deep in the forest. I do not cut down trees. I am an ecologist. I cut down invasive plants in very remote areas where humans mostly do not go. I take a truck to the forest. A UTV gets me as far as the trails go. then its me, the saw, and the ebike off trail creeping where the wild things are. my ebike allows me to just about go anywhere that I could hike and increases my ability to range over a much greater area with much less chance of faftigue or heat exhaustion. I have put a great deal of effort into keeping everything on the bike and me as light as possible. I am 6' 175 lbs.(198 lbs with my chainsaw, water, etc in a special pack on my back) My bike is built on a 29" hardtail Trinx aluminum mountain bike frame with the same upgraded double crown front fork that I watched you put on one of your bikes. 4 piston hydraulic brakes with 160/180 rotors. Headlight, tail light, strobes, and turn signals added. My current motor is an MXUS 72 volt 3k turbo hub motor with a 20ah battery. Total weight = 73 lbs. Overall I have been impressed with the performance of my build except for the 2 NBPower hub motors, 2 NBPower controllers, and 2 Sabvoton controllers that could not remain functional. Heat was a problem until the addittion of Statorade and hub sinks from Grin Technologies. keeping the battery at or below 20 lbs limits my range per charge with my average being 21 miles per charge when at work and more like 15 miles per charge at play on the 20 ah battery. i feel like a kid at christmas waiting for the fardriver and 26 ah battery. May Peace & Blessings satrurate you and your house for your generosity of information, EBIKEGUY, words cannot express the amount of apprecation that i have for you. Sincerely 3RTHS3RVNTXX aka C.W.

Best e-bike channel on TH-cam!!! Dayumm didn’t know you was 6”7 wow!!! Much luv bro I need a fat man e-bike diy build that can carry weight and get up to 50mph
Go with vesc controllers, like trampa, flipsky or makerbase... You won't regret it. They are more suited to ebikes. Mqcon, Kelly and fardrivers more for bigger vehicles like emotos or ecars 3kW was the right power choice for that build.
Had a 17s 8p battery flame up on me! Pushed it's limits then had to immediately put it on a high amp charge.... I think it was the immediate charge that put it over the edge...
Some of those dual motor pre built bikes are hard to beat at $1000 pushing 35mph hill eater... The only downside is heavy front end which would drive me crazy.... I like your set up 👍
I want to put a motor on my redline monocog 29er, needs a new crank though, bet it would make a nice steel beast of a rig, its got sma big triangle too, its a single speed bike
I NEED a riser, I see! Wonder how it'd look on my seeker 24? I like the idea of sitting up a Lil straighter. That's a very nice bike. Are most bikes equipped with the "e-brake" feature?
Do you know how to purchase an e bike off of Alibaba? I live in Barbados and want to start selling affordable e-bikes on my island starting from 500w motors to 1000w motors.
Hey e-bike man been watching all your videos and am very intrigued by your bike builds and all the work you put in. What are you starting them off at I would like to by one?
50amps Regen is a lot of amps. Think about the batteries and heat. I have my Regen on 18amps. I also set my Regen to start at 100rpm's The more amps on Regen can make the batteries hot. While discharging high current Think about chargers You wouldn't charge more than 20 amp fast charger. That's my thinking. If I go above that the bike slows down to fast for my liking I agree that the riders weight affects the settings for Regen. That's a rad build. Nice and simple ebike. It should be reliable
Could you possibly help me out. I’m building the same setup except with a brushless motor and not one in the back wheel. It’s going on a occ chopper bike I’ve tried looking up the some of the wires on my controller bc I bought it on Amazon and some are just marked weird like one connecter says (back off) as a label and also says outage power/ switch and a couple other I don’t understand
Are there any weather boxes that could be placed around the speed controller that wouldn't compromise natural air cooling? Puddles are terrible here in Washington. 🤟
@@E-bikeguy oh okay they arent the best but if you put on hubsinks and statorade you can run about 1.70 times the KW and generate the same heat from motor. when I say they arent the best, you dont really need or want much power with a bike setup like that
@E-bikeguy it's neet to see all the different ways that we can make our bikes our OWN! Custom, in a sense. I truly appreciate your channel. I've learned SO much. One more question. I'm kinda short legged, and with my seat down all the way, I feel like my knees are coming up way too high when I'm peddling. Would it help if I changed the pedal arm to a shorter length? It's got the 8 inch/170mm on it now. When I put the seat up to where I can pedal comfortably, I can't hardly touch the ground when I come to a stop. That's why I was wondering.
I have a question I just did that shunt mod on my new victrip Titan 750watt that I asked you about a while ago does it make it unreliable because I ride really far to work

Hello ebikeguy I see you use curcuit breakers on you builds, ive also ordered one for my bike I'm not sure on the wiring for it, does the circuit breaker connect to the battery possitive then to the load possitive?
I’m wrestling with my qs273, starting to think I’ve should gave gone for the qs205. The build is 15kw. Being too impulsive and not thinking twice can be too expensive. Feel like I have to build a completely new rear fork.
Ello mate I'm from the UK and the police are clamping down on ebikes and speed of them , I have a 3000k 72v 80amp controller and I was wondering is there any chance I could basically flick a switch to decrease the speed of it to 15mph so they won't take it of me because I'm currently running it 56mph
Are we ever going to have ebikes that we cam turn our leg muscle human generated energy output into stored energy in the battery, annoying that we dont have this this day in age

Finally a diy mountain ebike with adult size 27.5 or 29er tires...
Not 20inchers on a moped frame...
Just curious. What don't you like about the 20s?
Where I live the ebikes are $1800-$15,000
Those bikes are brand name generally with torque sensor pedal assist
Yet they won't go much more than 20mph.

Very big difference with a 3k to a 5k just saying as I have a 3k I built. Trust me work your way up 55 is aplenty and 72v you have that torg
