and just to keep this as budget friendly as possible, a crank puller costs less than a box of gauze and a bottle of peroxyde
What for can you explain 😬
@@akxsharma to install the pedal assist sensor you have to remove the pedal, and you need that tool to do that
@@akxsharma :
What gause and peroxyde?
@@alastorclark3492 bandage and disinfectant to treat the wound on his hand
This bike is so precious, her creator spilled blood to make it. 😂😂😂
No project is worth until some blood is spilled.
This bike is a bomb waiting to go off. It is dangerous.
It’s ok to decent. It’s just that battery that’s an issue.
@@jayevans6146 zhedie?in i
@@lonniestutler313 yeah it’s a deathtrap lmao
It was all good till he put the shifter on the inside
Yea that rly bothered me too
yes that was big off!
Breaking is used more than shifting with motor
If he left it how he had it in the start, the levers would be in that sweet spot and he woulnt need to purchase shorty 2 finger levers. I guess he prefers a full 4 finger pull. Im more of a two finger on the levers.
Yeah, cringed me so hard
Nice job. I would consider mounting a book rack and a set of soft panniers. keep the control box and battery over the tire right behind you and some extra essential in the panniers. A water resistant plastic ammo can would maybe make a good locking box for the batt and control
I love this guy” I’ll just throw some zip ties on it for now, remember just for now” if you’ve never said this you need to try it !!! Thanks for the build my brother!!!
This is the first video I watched for building an ebike and now about a year later I built my own, thanks for the inspiration and the guidance man
Brilliant build, and really cheap too. Building a perspex box with air vents will help keep your electronics dry and cool. Congrats, this vid will help many people get started with e bikes.
wow this is a great video, very informative, I feel like I could probably do this myself now. thanks for being so thorough with the walk through
Hey thought it was a well planned video. I really like that you included instructions on some basic bike maintenance and terms for people newer to biking. Thanks man! Cool build.
Much respect for helping us lower income guys with a no nonsense tutorial we can make our kids happy building them an e-bike
Too many of my "just for now" things end up being semi-permanent.
Thanks for watching! Just to clarify, the $350 is the cost of the ebike kit and battery, I assumed that most people already have a bike to use.
I cant get the battery link to work to find the battery you used. Can you tell me the brand and specs for the battery? The ebay link didn’t work for me.
That okaman battery looks fake, I like that it cost you little and they promised you high specifications, you should test the real capacity, that is to say of being a scam it doesn't have the 20.000 mah promised but less or half
the rest of what has been the engine controller etc looks quality and economic, my kit of 1500w cost me 300 euros from china to europe spain
Better check what kind of bike and the shape it's in. Most new people to the e-bike craze don't realize the kind of torque those motors are putting on the bike frame. If the frame looks weak, it IS. That's why the good conversations are working good with mountain bikes. They are designed to take a better beating as they were designed for off-road and the mounting on the frame for the wheels are already reinforced for those jumps and crazy riding people will do off road. It's a healthy plus BUT still even mountain bikes are not designed for the torque a 1000 wat motor can and will put out once you open the throttle all the way. So even on that note, please buy parts that reinforce the e-motor by locking it in by NOT allowing the torque of the motor to twist itself out of the mount on the frame. Take note, there are FLAT sides to the bolt that barely fits the mount. This is to keep the bolt from rotating as the motor pulls the bike forward. The mounts were never designed to take that sort of toque, especially the front wheels of any bike! Even the rear tire, with the bike chain the wheel is PULLED FORWARDS, NOT the twisting torque a motor will put out! So don't be surprised if you start to see the mount warp and the forks? Groove start to space out. It's a dangerous sign you wheel is about to twist out and literally fall off. Imagine a wheel flying off doing 20 mph. You are gonna get hurt is putting it mildly and a good chance it WILL kill you. So take it with a grain of salt, your doing something new? Learn what can go wrong and try to correct it BEFORE you learn the hard way. Bikes were never designed to go 20 plus all the time, e-bike motors make it easy to hit thirty?!? Hummm. Use some common sense and better yet search on what can go wrong. Least I pointed out the BIG ones. What you don't know here can and will kill yeah.
350 for motor kit and battery ? You having a laugh the battery’s cost the same as the wheel most of the time unless you use the fake 18650 battery’s
I’m getting ready to build the SAME exact bike! I bought it by chance in PERFECT condition for $40, then found THIS video which kept me from ditching this bike for a whole different setup at a higher cost.
Thanks to this video I now feel 100% confident that I can spend less than $500 and build a 40+Mph e-bike that’s dependable, and can keep me rolling while I save up n build my 5KW Sauron clone
Thx for the video! ESP for using THAT exact bike! Wild chances to find this video the day after I bought the bike strictly to convert :) rock on bro!
Saw your mid drive video, got me drooling over that low end torque!!
Great video! As a suggestion for the extra wires, I got this from watching shows like Amercian Choppers, and Overhauln, is that you can rout the excess through the down tube, it cleans up alot of messy wiring issues and it makes the bike look kinda trick
What is a downtube?
It brought much happiness. If you haven’t bleed or busted your knuckles your not wrenching
I agree
If you would have had a bike stand that would have been helpful
Yeah I've currently got a nice triangle cut into my middle finger down to the white meat from an allen wrench slipping near the disk break. :)
I’m building my own soon. This was helpful!
I have watched so many ebike kit videos recently try, amd yours is the only one that's given me the confidence to do the wiring..
You wemt through it slowly explained that it is colour coded, amd amd shown the process.
THANK YOU! Now all I need to do it actaully take the plunge and order a kit and a battery.
Cheers buddy
Thanks for sharing dude. never thought it would be this cheap. Subscribed!
well done! Sorry about your hand. I really want to convert my bike for the first time too. Your video is nice and it very encourage me to start mine...
This should be the first video that everyone sees when building an ebike. Bravo!
Wow amazing restoration and build! I know how that scrape feels like. Feel better.
I liked your video. Moved along nicely and was very informative. Thanks.
I'm just a backyard hack. I have a 750 w rear hub motor from a Canadian bike co.
Now I'm looking at my flat tire, no seat mountain bike gathering dust. You are inspiring me to make the E conversion. Great vid. I actually said OUCH when punched the sprocket.
Excellent How to............Thank-you, liked and Subbed.
Really enjoyed the video. Nice methodical install. I've got the same kit. Personally, I didn't bother with the supplied brake levers, or the pedal assist. I found it to be so much unnecessary wiring. I manage fine by just applying/letting go of the throttle.
if you dont have brake levers that cut power to motor in a certain time it makes the bike illegal in even the states with the easiest laws
@@kylegoodfield9088 who’s gonna check that though really you think a cops gonna check if your brakes cut your throttle
This looks like a fun little project. Hmm might have to start shopping for the parts.
I am about to do this myself too . This video was so helpful. Thank you
A crank puller would have been a worthy investment also.
Thanks for the video. I now have the confidence to do my own build. I believe the speed limiting wires are for for European users who are restricted to 250W of power for use on roads without the need for insurance and driving licence.
That 20Ah battery is about half the size as my genuine 20Ah battery. Just wanted to mention its at tops 10Ah and the batteries in it is not the best either thus the very low price for it.
Goldguy, wanted to thank you for your video, followed your video and built a electric bike just like yours . Would recommend others follow your example. thank you again.
So many variables, it's a headache to figure out what to get, but knowing it's possible to do this on a budget is reassuring. Thanks :)
Haha...this should be titled "e-bike wreck conversion." I'm impressed with your knowledge and skill. Way to go!
Thank you for sharing the actual list of parts. If I want to replicate this with my Bianchi Advantage, I have to research more. I also do not need it to be 30MPH, just 20 MPH. I also have a Huffy, and I may just do this for that bike.. My question is the controller box, I wonder if they come alot smaller, like the Swyft. , and yes, living in a big city I see someone stealing it in a heartbeat.
You made that look easy. Thanks. Im not ready yet but this is one step closer!
Just completed a similar build will definitely be linking your video in my description when I'm done setting up everything and editing it
Looking forward to that MondoPb3.
great walkthrough and the comments make this build gold
FYI this motor can take a lot of abuse. You can push 3kw using 72v+ in it no problem... If you ever think about upgrading the bike, the motor is something you don't need to worry about.
your talking abt pushing 2kw into a 1000w motor, it would destroy it
@@UsmanKhan-fb2jq no, It won't. Those cheap motors are very much underrated
@@Full_Throttle_no_Brakes power does not matter, torque rate matter
Do you know how much voltage can handle the controller?
@@josmty9 which controller?
I've been studying this e-bike stuff for a couple years and this is the best video I've seen good job
Nice vid mate, really usefully! Thanks!👍
Great video GoldGuy.. I fitted a 60 ah circuit breaker between my positive battery and the controller. You can turn off the battery before you disconnect it. Stops all the sparking!
I've just bought an ebike, a 52v 1000w rear wheel hub and motor, and it sparks damn near every time I connect the charging wire to my battery.
Am I damaging anything? And how do I fit this circuit breaker you mentioned?
@@NiSiochainGanSaoirse Hold fire Sir... It's Saturday night and we are all drunk. I will put up a circuit in the nest few days with Amazon link for purchase.. thankyou for your patience.. and YES... you are damaging your connection
@@NiSiochainGanSaoirse Hi Ni Siochain Gan Saoirse - just uploaded a PDF showing my circuit with some photos - hope it helps outdoorsboy.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Making-an-eBike-battery-safe-for-connection.pdf
You need a first aid kit in the shop. That scrape must of hurt after the adrenaline wore off.
Oh yeah it hurt.
More like a gash lol
Or a crank puller
Quality video, i've just picked up a great MB for £40 and ordered the same parts .. going to great fun - thanks again.!!! :-)
How did the build go?....
I just did the 1500 watt with the internal controller (in the hub) and it's SO much cleaner. I hope it lasts. Need to upgrade my battery from 48v 13ah to 52v 20ah but the thing can do about 28 mph as it is with no pedal input. I did discover that it's worth buying the tools for the gear cassette and the crank though.
How far can you ride?
@@siebehuitema4318 fully throttle wide open hills and stuff about 18 miles.
I enjoy watching you building this e bike, good editing, good explanation , I thinking buying the same thing and building myself.
Also on that bottom bracket nut the big one you banged on with a hammer and flat head on the crank bottom bracket you really want to torque that properly because it's easy to grind out that area (I run mid drive motors instead of hub so for me it's really super important but still even on hub motors it should be properly torqued) just want to try to save you from having to trash the frame or buy new parts to fix anything. Hope your enjoying the bike
Awesome video and thanks for sharing your tips 👍👍
Nice to see you giving it a good effort and not hiding any of your small hiccups instead of pretending that it was so simple to make even a little to no experience of mechanical background can do it as well. I thought that you are easy to follow instead of polished video so i look at the work and say i can't do it they have a lot of experience but your rawness is refreshing making people realise they are able to do it if willing to put the effort into the project, so congratulations my guy keep pushing forward and I have no doubt that u will go as far as u want to
you've made the best inexpensive e-bike build on TH-cam im building one just like yours thanks so much!!!!
th-cam.com/video/B3_P46C_Rm0/w-d-xo.html
Please use a better bike with disc brakes, this bike was not designed for these speeds and will fall apart.
Great job.glad you got some fun on it. The controller is limiting your speed by supplying very little amperage.can be tweaked but easier to upgrade controller.ride on brother.
Another great vid mate, just make sure that the rear shock isnt going to hit the battery when it bottoms out
Dude!! WD-40 would help on siezed stuff. I am just saying that because I feel for you and I have drawn blood too many times myself. Thanks for this video. My son will have an e-bike by next week because I just learned how to build one by watching your video. New subscriber here also.
I went to buy the battery but it got some serious negative reviews some people said it was half the capacity or they had to wait over a month others said they never received it. I’m pretty excited about this build can you tell me how long it took to arrive and if it’s actual 48v 20AH thanks for the video
You really got us at the end
Fantastic informative video. Thankyou for sharing this.
This is really helpful. Thank you for sharing!
PAS can go on either side. It's just easier to put it in the non drive side with a square taper.
I have mine mounted drive side, but I also have a Hollowtech crankset.
Drive side makes it a little more protected, but isn't necessary.
Hey bro cool video! This is actually the second time I have watched this and no doubt will probably watch again in the future :) can I ask what make kit did you buy and how do you know which kit is suitable for which bike or is there no general rule do the kits have the options of different size wheels ect? ☺️
Good job friend. Great video and very helpful
Thats the exact mask I used in 2020 lol idk why not many people thought of bandanas they are easy to keep on you. I love the cheap hyper! I actually have a clean one just like that available on marketplace for $35 lol
So cool. You made it look simple.
Love the blood and sweat you put in the job. 👍
Goldguy can this be found in a 29in wheel kit I've looked I have not came across does it exist in this budget range
Awesome video mate thanks for sharing.
I’m 67 with 2 DRZ’s and a couple Triumphs. I’m thinking this will be a good way to supercharge my old Bianchi mountain bike so I can use it more. That’s for the inspiration young man!🚴🏼♂️
Great video very informative thanks for sharing I have sub
Love the Subie rumble! ❤️❤️❤️
Well done. I love it. Thank you.
Looks good.. 👍
im inspired to get one cheers dude
Dud that was fantastic!!!
What charger you recommend for fast charging? And aH for a battery?
I'm Interested in knowing if you had any issues I. The months since you made this video. How many miles do you have on that motor controller combo. Is it water proof?
Great job make me want to my own build.
I'm looking to get one on my bike for transportation to work, my only worry is the battery I've heard stories of a cheap battery catching on fire and burning down homes, im wondering if it would be worth it for long term use or should i spend more towards 2-300$ for a solid reliable battery, also the one you have here doesn't look to be water proof i know there would be days where it gets wet i wouldn't want that to be a problem
You earned this 👍🏾
Nice car lol great job on the bike tooooo...not sure I could do this to my bike...
I love your video man. This really makes repairing a bike look easy!! I might work on my bike the next time I have issues.
Too bad it's done incorrectly, this is more of a how not to. I was a bike mechanic for years and this was painful to watch.
@@zincyellowmach1523 Ah I see it's cool. I mean even it it's not totally proper I can still learn a bit from just getting up and close with the parts. I'm fluent in building computers not totally fluent on maintaing my bicycle. Even just being introduced to some of the parts and what the proper names are I'm learning. Also we all make mistakes I mean I'm no way perfect in building pc's even I mess up for time to time. I could still show someone how things work or name parts.
@@agentskazzers3482 yeah I hear ya. He probably damaged the parts though and with a little research and a couple inexpensive tools he could have done it the right way. I'm not trying to be hard on him but if you're going to do an "instructional video" you should know what you're doing because people will follow your instructions and that could be bad. Especially on something where you are going 30mph on a public road and could really get injured if it breaks. There are a few books on bike repair that could really help out if you're interested in learning to repair your own bike. Best wishes
@@zincyellowmach1523 That would be great actually. What are those books called if you don't mind me asking?
@@agentskazzers3482 I would recommend the Park Bbb-4 book, the bicycling magazine repair book, or Barnett's. Barnett's is a little dated but still good info. Park tools can't be beat as well, it's worth the extra money unless you're only using it once. Some cone wrenches, good quality metric hex tools, a crank puller, and a good spoke wrench are a good starting point for tools. A stand, although expensive, will REALLY make a huge difference as well. Learn the fine art of wheel truing and derailleur adjusting and you will be really happy you did, makes your bike so much nicer to ride. 👍
Nice video, I was wondering what adapter was used connect the speed controller to the battery.
Anxitype hey did you find out what the connector from the speed controller is called?
@@ahmadm9551 yeah sorry this is extremely late, but it’s called a Dean T to Bullet adaptor.
I really like your editing style.
Thanks, I really appreciate that!
Well done! I have a 1500 watt voilamart hub motor with a 52 volt triangle battery. I bought a puller to remove the pedals. No washers. Better wrap that battery in some padding and get some proper connectors.
The cable management is real hehehe. Nice work getting that all put together, you made it look somewhat easy
You look like mr beast who hasn't ate in 2 months
So a dead mr beast 😅
Nah it's Chris
He looks more like, the guy who operates the channel, rconlife
😂😂
@Bob Loblaw a guy with more money than sence with a porno tash
lmao that Tinder notification at 20:03
Thank you for sharing this, I went online and this seems like a good price for 1000Watts.
Good job. I’m pleasantly surprised.
Great video
At last a genuine everyday diy build that doesn’t spend a few grand on fancy parts to build their bike. I’d personally use disk brakes & maybe a slightly better frame but I really enjoyed your build anyway. Keep it up 👍
will you show how you build your electric bike?
Probably because most people wouldn’t trust that battery. I know I wouldn’t
The controller power cables in my 1500w kit are 14 gauge with no connectors but my battery power wires are about 10 gauge with Anderson Connectors 45amp.Is it a problem?
Hi. Do the same as I hid the wires in the electric box waterproof, I have a video on the channel, but I'm from Russia and speak Russian 😊 well, you will understand how to do it, how to hide all the wires from the rain, and also make sure and make an amplifier on the motor wheel🚲
You did a very good job. Thank you
Have you done a build with a font hub to? If so witch do you you think is better option at the moment I have the one that you have the rest and same brand but it's pretty old and it doesn't seem to spin that nicely I was just wondering if that's normal for them wheels or what a front motor will be smoother and earliest?
hey mate woudd you have a link for the battery you purchased for this kit ?
Inspired by this video I went out and purchased this kit ,(already had mb) and a 20 ah battery. It does work however my range was only 10 miles. I also notice that the bike will power on without the battery being connected for a short bit of time. I do not know who actually makes this ebike kit , voilamart is a retailer looks like. I have a spark whenever i hook up my battery charger to the battery and thought for a long time i got a bad bm battery or something but it looks like something is going on with the ebike part kit. What would cause a spark to discharge from an ebike kit and maybe shortening the range of my battery. ?
I think the spark is normal, mine has done that before too and my range is way more than 10 miles. Maybe you just got a bad battery, I would try to return it and get a better one.
I was going to say get a crank puller and while your at it get a spoke tension gauge but I already see a ton of people commented on the crank puller already but it's worth mentioning they are pretty necessary when pulling cranks, you very rarely find cranks that won't benefit from a good crank puller.
The bag could have been used for the wiring, just cut a slit in each end and then once everything was buttoned up put all the wiring inside if it's big enough. Very informative vid I want to do this to my old schwinn with ape hangers.
Thad be pretty sweet build
Excellent 👍
How is the quality of the build will it last long ? Also how is the battery will it last ?
I want to build one of this for a daily driver ..
My starter bike only has a mechanical brake in the rear (reverse the pedal only) no hand grips etc. What would I do for a read brake?
Hi gold guy, can I know the brand of your smart watch please. And can you send me the link to the ebike kit and battery, I really want to buy one. Thank you.
Best one I've watched yet :D
