In short: It makes very little difference whether you're running 1500 or 2000 watts, difference in rim size probably made the 2000 a little slower than it could be, but frankly, 40mph on effectively just a mountain bike ought to be fast enough for ya, unless you have a real death wish.
I agree 40mph on skinny rims is plenty else asking for trouble. I think it was the 29er rim that gave the 1500w an advantage on top speed then maybe also affected its acceleration. Bikes like this arnt built to cope with speeds above 40mph, if people want faster get a motorbike
@@bryanteixeira-pires2917 yes, a 1500w hub motor with a 52v battery can hit 37-38 on flat ground sometimes even a tad more depending on the maker. And a 2000w 52v motor can reach upto 40mph+
Yes both are good bikes a nd they both have their own strengths. Not sure which I prefer and plan on keeping yet. Thank you and you too stay safe mate 👍
@@motomachinezuk8786 great video. I built a DIY ebike out of a 1990s ebike 1500w kit fast as hell. Doesn't stop too good tho. Watch those narrow back lanes in case u hit a dog walker. Great video tho. And great bikes
Thoroughly enjoyed this, could watch for hours! Nothing like a British summer evening (makes me homesick), and two lads out for a bike ride - brilliant! Would watch a lot more if you make them. Just watching in between coats of paints on my new ebike build - 72v 2000w, an upgrade on my other 48v 1000w ebike. Cheers!
Thank you I appreciate the feedback and yes we plan to do more for sure, enjoy this electric stuff. Sounds like a good build with 72v battery, that's what i need but not confident enough to make my own yet. I've seen the 3000w kits but need bigger battery and I can't source 1 for the Job without making it. Cheers hope the build goes well 👍
@@motomachinezuk8786 just had its first test run - doing around 42mph in the dark on slight uphill incline - needed some depends! Definately a cure for constipation! My gears are messed up, and needs some tweaking, but I can see its going to be a pretty quick bike. Wish I had roads and trails like the ones you ride!
yeah guys lol. i see 2000 watt and 3000 watt all over the place but only 1500 for sale.... im also thinking wait if all these guys are making these 3000 watt bikes why dont i just get the battery for a 3000 watt and use a 1500 watt AW...now that id like to see! miles! not speed... feel me? lol lets see how far we can get one to go. i guess you charge while you sleep rite... worried it wouldn't last all day running around doing my shit and what not. but yeah where does all this crap come from?
can you answer me this question the 2000 Watt bike does it show that you are using 2000w all the time when you give it full Throttle or is it just when it is starting off like on a steep Hill it gives you 2000 watts and then does it go down to like say 1500w 1700w . What I'm trying to say is does it give you a full 2000 watt constant
A 2000-watt e-bike doesn't use 2000 watts constantly. It uses up to 2000 watts during high-demand situations like starting off or climbing steep hills. When cruising on flat terrain or at a steady speed, it uses less power, typically around 1500 watts or lower, depending on conditions. The power output varies to match the riding demands and ensure efficiency. Hope this helps.
@@MrJLiebert yeah that sounds about right to me I was just concerned that mine was a bit fucked on a fresh battery on high demand gives me 2030 Watts and then it drops to around 1640 once at steady speed
if you strap a huge bluetooth speaker blasting out American Flyer Siundtracks ( really cool 1985 cycling movie) it will make your rides even more awesome. 2 wheels good!
Enjoyed watching your e bike video making me want a 1500watt bike now or 2000watt. As use my e bike a lot but its only a standard 250w what I get bored of easy but does the job.. I would use the bike quite a lot so would want a reliable kit.
Thanks and glad you like the ebike content. I think these kits are reliable but not done 1000s of miles yet. If not abused and constant throttle they should be OK, no burnouts or jumps and stick to the road stuff. They are great fun I really enjoy mine. Never tried a 250w but like you say they are pretty robust and reliable I hear.
It may be worth doing a dual wheel conversion so two 250 w hub motors running off existing battery. I did this on a halfords bike and the power increase/traction is almost unreal going up hills!
i wonder how much efficiency difference between the 1.5 and 2k bike, needing a bigger battery to hit the same millage, was looking at some chinnese ebike with 3000w looking like a dirt bike, but that would probably get you you caught quickly in urban public roads
Yes you have a good point I'm unsure but I can see what you mean. I wonder, how could that be tested ? Any ideas ? That was probably a stealth bomber bike
Would be good if someone lent us some fat ebikes. Always listening to ideas and suggestions for sure, appreciate the feedback. And thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed
Great vid mate buller looked like he had fun on that and do love that place you live looks so nice to ride around there me and the mrs are planning to move somewhere like that just another 10 yrs of working me bollox off first though lol look forward to the next vid 👍
Hi. What display and controller was being used on the 2000w and what parameters settings did you find gave the best performance. And does that displays speed limiter go to more than 72 kmh as my Lcd8h only goes upto 72 kmh. Thanks.
Hi its a sw900 if I remember right and I just used settings it came with. I had it in mph and I see 44 on it down Hill once. Not much good am I lol yes it was a Complete kit I slapped on and I didn't have any issues. Alot more torque than my 1500w
I live in the United States... Florida. Where can I buy the 1500w 29inch wheel e-bike motor kit from this video"?" Make sure to answer about the one in the video, whereas the rider is wearing red shorts. Thanks!🙏👍
Hi mate, I'm looking at that 1500w 29er kit from vandervolt. How did you find the company/brand? Was installation pretty easy? And what sorts of speeds can you get up to on throttle only? Cheers!
Hi I found the company very helpful and product has been all good so far for over 500 miles, leisurely use. The kit was very easy to install and decent connections, nothing to moan about. I can get a good 39mph easy on flat. Down hill I've had 48mph, crazy.
@@Joe_mammma they would confirm I'm sure as very helpful. I would say so but you may need a few more washers to get spacing spot on. Very long axle on hub
@@Highfocus89 I think all 3 are good for their money to be fair. Won't go wrong with any. Just comes down to how much you wanna spend. Kirbey kits are more expensive and take a little longer for delivery from China. Good battery
I ordered the 2000watt kit, should receive it next week I hope. Now I have to get a bike, which one do you prefer? The marlin 5 or talon 3? Great video man, I love it! Take care!
I prefer the giant with its 27.5 wheels plus the bike feels better quality slightly and forks are tiny bit better. Both good bikes for £500 it's just I personally feel the giant it better. Thanks man glad you enjoy them I appreciate that support 🙏
after watching so many videos i just want a cheap comfy bike and super main stream massively produced kit... thinking of buying the mongoose dolomite and a AW kit 1500 watt. then just putting like 4 batteries in a back pack lol. or....maybe a solar kit and back pack. idk wear a solar panel on my head lol as a hat. but no really i just want cheap and reliable... wonder what just the parts that break on the kits cost... i get a a lot of speeding tickets on my bmx which is no gears... i get up to 65 easy on flat ground.... never used a bike withe gears before im told by another pro cyclist like me if i did id go 80 mph with in one block and well over 100 mph with in a few. but breaks with this thingy would be nice lol.
Hello i dont know if you can see this comment or not but i ordered a e bike for low price and they says it is so fast (50-60) km/h but the bike is so cheap is this is a scam or what bc kinda scared plus it is fat tier bike with that speed hope you read this.
thats like me and my cousin before he got his first girlfriend and now he aint allowed to go anywhere. cant believe how fast you two go you must be used to driving motorbikes or something.
