Thank you, I hope you found the video useful, Jeff 😁📷

I think it does up to 35MPH but I only do 20mph, thats fast enough In London on the roads that are full of pot holes! I've had it up to 27MPH with ease and that's not full throttle, but it's too fast for me!

@ryant1236 Hi Ryan, Yes just the battery is all that you need, but, for safety I'd advise buying a Torque Arm if you are using the rear wheel kit.. you can get them on Ebay or Amazon for around £5 - £8, Keep in touch and let me know how you get on with building the bike up! Good Luck, Jeff 😁

@@jeffjhcom Thanks for the reply. Another question, would it be dangerous to put a 28” wheel on when the front wheel is 26”?

​@@ryant1236 Hi Ryan, well I wouldn't personally as most frames are made for certain things... however, some say it's fine when I looked online... I don't want to say yes or no, best to Google the question and read some different opinions... personally I’d use the wheel size that come with the frame... would you be getting a 28 inch ebike wheel kit then? Most of the Voilamart are 26 inch, although I think they are starting to do different size wheels, Mine is 26 inch, let me know if you are going to change wheels, but I think it's risky and dangerous. Jeff

Hi Krish, How are you? All in all it came to £600 , I had to buy the bike as my old one was a bit rusty, but if you already have a Bike then it would be about £400... do you ride a bike yourself? thanks, Jeff

@@jeffjhcom yea I'm thinking of doing this to my apollo creed 2015

@@KBIKESS Ok, I think the Apollo Creed is 24inch wheel? Mine is 26inch wheel, make sure you order the correct size.. they do a 24inch as well here >> www.voilamart.co.uk/voilamart-24-1000w-rear-electric-bicycle-motor-conversion-kit-ebike-wheel-lcd.html

Hi Sam, that's strange.. do you have the power restricted to 250w on your controller? or running at 1000w? are you using the SW900 LCD display as well? Having it at 250w is the only reason that I can think of whereby changing the Pedal assist settings won't make any difference?

​@@jeffjhcom how were you able to change the wattage?

@@tayosterling8447 Hi ya, If you watch this video it shows you the display settings: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJeYm4h-i5t3h7c

Hi ya, If you put the controller in a bike bag, maybe a pannier rack bag, a frame bag or the bag that comes with the kit itself then you'll be fine... make sure the wires that connect to the controller are also covered up.. I've rode my bike in the rain, no probs, look at my video and see how I have my controller in a bag, Jeff 🔥

Hi Jude, really glad yo hear that your Ebike build has helped you a lot.. yes the 52v 20ah is the same as mine.. definitely needed for a good days usage!! 3000 miles is a lot!! Wow that sounds good with your full suspension bike.. any pics of it? Instagram? Video? Regards, Jeff

@@jeffjhcom I don't have any pictures I'll have to take some. It's the bike I had in my teenage years about a decade ago given some new life👍.

There are Ebike kits for hybrids, with this kit it's more suited to a mountain bike frame as the wheel and forks are wider than a hybrid, but you can check the measurements on the Voilamart kit product to see if it will fit your bike... Most of the Voilamart are for 26inch wheels as well.. but you can get kits in different wheel sizes from other manufacturers, I hope that helps, Jeff

@@jeffjhcom it does help. I’m looking at one second hand for a great price with a great battery with it. If it doesn’t fit my bike I currently have, I’ll just have to get one that does lol. Thanks for the teply

Hi ya! It's been going like a dream! No Problems, I've done 1700 miles on it now. all around London most days! Still going strong! Thanks, Jeff 😁😁

Hey Connor, sorry for late reply... was away with work training course, oh that's a nice set up, I have the same 52v 20ah battery, honestly I go all around London on mine, some days I've covered around 30 miles in town and still have 50% battery left! Have you got any pics or vids of your bike? can't wait to see something? speak soon, Jeff

It's done over 1500 miles now and I go all around the city on it., it's worth the money and do invest in a bigger battery for peace of mind, Jeff

@@jeffjhcom thank you

Sounds like a good set up option! 😁Jeff!

Hi ya, either, with pedal assist you just pedal as someone usually would and the motor will kick in... or, you can sit on the bike and twist the throttle to pull away, my advice is to not switch on the power until you are actually sitting on the bike... I've often switched on the power and then accidentally twisted the throttle when getting onto the bike and it's nearly gone off on its own down the road!!!! Be careful!!! 😅

@@jeffjhcom haha okay thanks, so in terms of torque is the 1000w system a pretty torquey one? ive ordered a 1500w kit and im hoping to do wheelies from a stand still, the mountain bike frame im putting it on isnt heavy and im like about 73kg

@@haks_123 Hi Ya, yes it has a bit of a 'pull' to it from Idle, however my bike frame is really heavy so I think with a lighter one it would have some extra pull to it (hold onto your hats!) 😂 To be honest I wish I had a lighter frame as I took online advice about a steel frame etc and it weighs a ton, I'm pretty sure a lightweight frame with torque arms wouldn't be a problem, I might just transfer the kit to a new frame! And that sounds amazing with your 1500w kit, when are you buying it? I love to see the lad's doing wheelies along the road! It's an amazing skill and as I do photography, I've often captured a few random moments of people doing stunts on a bike! I love it! Never really seen wheelies on electric bike though, so that would be good to see...! are you going to video some when you do them? I would love to see something!! Let me know! regards, Jeff

@@jeffjhcom thank you, and my battery just arrived today , just waiting on the motor/ controller combo now. And honestly wheelies are like 10 times easier on a e-bikes as oppose to a normal bicycle, and yes I will defiantly consider making a video of not only the build but also me wheeling it. I actually got two of my friends to convert their bikes into e bikes too, its cheap fun and who doesn’t like that 😁, thanks for the replies brother <3

@@haks_123 Oh Nice, what battery did you get? also, with the 1500w kit is it the same make as I have? (Voilamart) or another brand? I can't wait to see your wheelie vids! great that you got 2 friends to also convert! When is your 1500w kit expected to arrive? do you have any videos online of wheelies even without the electrics?

Hi ya, no they are not all universal, but you just change them or join the 2 copper wires together just like anything else electrical, you can see the red and black wires attached to the white connectors in my video, I just cut the connectors off as they were different and used a block terminal... hope that helps? Jeff

@@jeffjhcom cheers yea did help 🤙

There are kits that come with battery packs which solves that problem... But they mostly top out at 750W (and many well below that). If you're going to use it in public roads though, check your local laws. Many countries and states have limits in the 200-300W range, and you're probably best off starting with a legal kit first to see what sort of attention you get from the authorities...

Hey, my friend, how are you? Yes, I'm going to do a follow up and a ride out video soon, look out for it, hoping to get it done asap... so, you have the same build? nice... do you have any pics or vids? I'm on Instagram as well... @jayphotovideo

Hi Jay, when you buy a battery for the bike it will usually come with a charger... I hope that helps? kind regards, Jeff

Hi ya, how are you? No I am not getting any of your problems.. how strange? Did you resolve it with Voillamart as you said they asked for more details? regards, Jeff

@@jeffjhcom They are suposed yo be sanding me a new LCD. I will see if that is yhe issue when it arrives. Someone mentioned it might be the controller. Hoping not. But Voilamart said they would replace that if it ends up being the issue. I will keep you posted.

@@qaz9258 ok sure, let me know.. did you buy the kit directly from Voilamart or Ebay or amazon?

@@qaz9258 Ok yh, let me know asap.. am keen to find out.. regards, Jeff

@@jeffjhcom I got my replacement LCD from the Ebay seller/Voilamart at no charge a few days ago. It was the LCD. New one fixed the issue. Paying attention when turning on the LCD there will be a 1 second bn3.6 notification in the Odometer area. Also the word "OFF" will show for 1 second on power off. So the LCD was shot some how. So have to say Voilamart has great customer service. Certainly seemed to want to make me happy. And did.

Hi Cameron.. I bought mine on ebay and it came with the LCD.. the price has gone up now ( like everything else! ) but here is the link to the same ebay seller that I bought mine from.. he's accepting offers so you you can always try to reduce the price a little.. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224126209391

Hi ya Sam, How are you? Yes I run the Test for you by lifting the back wheel a good few times, no Issues whatsoever, seems like it's just the one you have if your previous wheels didn't have that Issue.. maybe it won't be a problem if you're not really doing 30mph speeds.. I hope you can get it resolved anyway, all the best, Jeff

Mine does the same thing after putting on another tire after the original one wore out. I think its the tire

Hi ya, well the reviews say 35 mph, but that would depend on the riders weight, I'm 11.5 stone and I've had 24mph just by pedalling and then 28mph by 'partly using the throttle' and you can feel the power waiting to be used on full throttle, so I think you could safely say that it can go up to 35mph.. I just don't like to go above 28 mph as there are too many 'pot holes' on London's roads so have never tested it to it's full capacity.. but let me know how you get on with the kit if you get one.. regards, Jeff

Thank you so much, please share if you can, thank you, Jeff

Thanks so much.. It's still holding strong 500 miles later to date!

Ha ha..! Yes!! 😁

Hi Steve, you go by the Arrows on the Magnet Sensor, you place it with the arrows pointing in the same direction that you pedal, then it will be fitted the correct way around etc.. hope that helps, Jeff

@@jeffjhcom Great,I bought a new bike but looks like they fitted it wrong. Thanks

Thank you very much.. Kind regards .. Jeff

Hi Simon, I bought the 52v 20ah battery from Unit Power Pack.. you can get the 'Hailong' one's which are 52v 13ah for much less money, obviously the more 'Ah' the more range you can get, but I think 13ah is fine for most people.. Apparently, there is a difference between 48v vs 52v.. I'll put some links here so do check them out.

The Company supply the motorized wheel so it's built fit for purpose etc.. also I have a steel frame and torque arm so it's been built to take the speeds.. personally I don't go above 22mph anyway as it's too fast for my liking, it's nice to have the 1000w power though as I live in a very Hilly area.. and yes I use the bike to commute to work, 5 miles either way, so 10 miles per day.. what security risks are they that you mentioned?

@@jeffjhcom Thanks for responding I was thinking of locking up and the like in the case you couldn’t bring your ebike inside work. There’s always gonna be a hooligan ready to unscrew and take apart the ebike for parts, like any bike really haha

@@dr.coomer789 Exactly..! Like any bike.. I'm lucky as I can put mine in a secure bike cage at work, but if not I would chain it up in a really busy road and not a backstreet and remove my battery by the Velcro straps and put it in my work locker.. I have an alarm for my bike as well.. a lot of people use the 'Hailong' batteries which can be removed with a key quickly rather than the Velcro straps that mine has.. so, are you going to build your own ebike anytime soon?

@@jeffjhcom Ah, give it a good few months. I have an electric “push” scooter that I use to commute to University, but the build quality of it is not the best, and i am beginning to look at alternatives. It goes 31 km/h, but I would prefer something slightly faster to hopefully keep up with traffic and so cars will not pass me by as quickly. This has been in the back of my mind for the longest time, and I just bought a bicycle. Now i need the courage to take it apart. Thank you for the battery suggestion, I definitely do not want to go into this blind!

@@dr.coomer789 I've worked for Deliveroo in Derby for 14 months now, no one one has messed with any of our e-bikes and me and the other guys leave them locked up when pick up orders all the time. Only bikes I see got stolen are locked up with those cheap cable locks

Depends on the prices at the time.. have a look to see what's a better deal for your wallet! Jeff

Hi how many miles roughly off a full charge

I get 65 miles with pedal assist only and about 45 miles on throttle only. Jeff

Hi Jonas Meir, Yes I bought the whole kit from Ebay, I'll put the Links below.. it's been a good few months now and so far so good! Yes the Battery Is UPP.. it's been going like a dream and I do a round trip of 45 miles per week to and from my work and it's still on 40% charge.. I bought the 52v Battery as the controller can take more power.. I'll post the links here.. Wheel Kit: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224126209391 Battery: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/392996557131

Hi Nick, yes I've seen a few box frame builds.. looks neater.. I'll have to buy some wood and some tools and see what I can knock together..!

@@jeffjhcom let us knows how you get on look at my old battery box on my KZbin I used lipid b4 I got a battery the same as your but I took the battery out of the plastic case

Thanks so much and you're more than welcome.. 😁📸 🤟💯

Thanks Mate, I think maybe take the 9 Sprocket off of your current wheel and fit it to the Hub wheel, as long as the gears can change properly and there is no friction between the sprocket and wheel frame dropouts then you should be fine as the Hub tends to be wider than the wheel hub that came with your bike.. any problems then you'll have to remove the 9 sprocket and use the 7 sprocket that comes with the Hub.. If you do that then not all of the gears can be used, but to be honest people don't change gears as it's now an Ebike, so maybe using the 7 sprocket that came with the ebike kit is the way to go, I hope that helps.. good luck with your build. Jeff!

Thank u jeff that's a big help 👍

Hello I built a voilmart 1000w kit today and no your 9 won’t fit I had the same problem you can use the 7 provided with the kit but the hub rubs on the derailer so you’ll have to adjust that and you can’t use gear 8-9 or it will slip off the cog but overall it still works really well I can pedal and use the gears perfectly
