72V/5000W E-Bike Conversion First Ride

[@quailstudios]

That was awesome Dave. I can't wait to try your bike out next time I visit. ;)

[@Dus306]

nice. About to order this but the fardriver controller version

[@stockey]

My 3000W 72V does 0-30 under 3 seconds.

Do a review on the kit and parts you used please!

[@tminustoday]

The kit used and the unboxing video of the kit is linked in the description!

This set up on a nice mountain bike would be fantastic

[@slimdunkin117]

Mountain bikes do better with mid drives and a range of gears

[@nickacelvn]

@@slimdunkin117 Do they? Or is that just what they sell you? Like I said this set up on a nice dh mtb.

[@slimdunkin117]

@@nickacelvn what u mean do they? On a mid drive you can adjust the gears..on a hub and direct drive it’s permanently geared internally

[@Minacious_Shenanigans]

@@slimdunkin117 Doesn't really matter if you have a powerful hub motor. Mid drives are only better if you need less wheel intertia (for offroading) or a lower weight bike. Mid drives only need gears because they aren't that strong

[@slimdunkin117]

@@Minacious_Shenanigans hub motors are inherently inefficient. That’s why surron, talaria, solar eclipse, all use mid drives.. Sorry bud

[@LeafyBoi20]

What motor

[@didllynutz]

Hey I was looking at the Aliexpress link and I saw the option for a 175mm and 190mm; I was wondering what those options mean because I am afraid if I were to buy those it wouldn't fit onto my bike frame. Thanks much!

[@tminustoday]

That measurement is the space between your rear wheel from the inside of the frame between the wheel. Take a measuring tape, measure it and convert it to mm. It should be pretty close. Order the one that is closer to your bike's rear dropout width.

[@didllynutz]

@@tminustoday Okay thank you!

[@Boogie.VanMan]

I´m confused with the links...are you now using the complete NBPower kit with wheel, after having used the Aliexpress kit with wheel? ... A full swap of all components including the wheel and everything..?

[@tminustoday]

I listed both the Amazon kit and the Ali Express kit. I purchased the Ali Express kit but had some logistical issues. Amazon is always great for ease of returns/swaps. Pick one or the other, they come with everything you need to get rolling.

[@jeffreywhite4091]

Thanks for the vid....to go to work i deal with small inclines but there is this steep overpass on the way to work...do you recommend 5k watts or can i get away with less...i dont want to pedal assist

[@tminustoday]

5kw is overkill. I can climb steep hills with a 1kw motor, albeit slowly at 10mph. Get a 2000w motor, it'll be more than enough with a decent controller!

[@papap.8006]

I guess you could add this pkg for any bike. I like the regenerative brakes. How much was the pkg?

[@tminustoday]

The price fluctuates. Check out the kits linked in the description for latest pricing.

[@gmeister03]

What battery?

[@tminustoday]

Custom battery I built with used cells, I have a video on it. It's an 80A battery with 200A burst with 1440Wh capacity.

[@wackyval6898]

be careful, i built a 1500wats Bmx. had a crash and broke 10 Ribs

[@Betasatan631]

wtf? why would you put that on bmx

[@gmeister03]

Bad support on product

[@tminustoday]

Yes, support will be abysmal on something like this.
