Andy Kirby E-BIKE kit gets a NICE upgrade!!!

[@lbarnett748]

I have a 2350w carrera with 52v 21ah loving it. At first the wires got hot and melted with that crappy yellow terminal connector from Riding Hilly roads and going too fast a lot But even though it’s a adverage square wave controller since I cut the wires back and removed that yellow crap I replaced with xt150 6mm bullet connecters and soldered those on., one on each phase wire and my god, the difference, they take 150amps each and highly recommended to keep the controller and wires warm only even on demanding hills and you can go fast continuously Well worth doing. 👍

[@stephendonkin5497]

Definitely do the twin motor

[@stephendonkin5497]

Good watch Steve looking forward to more

[@losbastardosmtb]

These are absolute machines and i couldn’t recommend kirbekits enough to anybody that’s not tried it Ye everything showed up as should plenty of emails from support to reassure me anything I asked there team missed out on nothing and there’s manners where ten out of ten 🔥🚲

[@mrshaneyt43]

Having watch you from way back if I actually had the money I would definitely get one of your builds. From the beginning I thought it was a lot for what you have charged. Always shoot over to Facebook when you have a bike there and look with envious eyes. And with the new kits they will be even better👍

[@stevencalnan4908]

Another quality build looking forward to the upgrade builds .Any chance of doing a hybrid build at some point and what happens with that tandem motor build you did ?

TREK quality, great frame geometry 🤠💯🤟

[@frankroach9346]

Nice work man

[@michaelwood3099]

Cheap at half the price, an absolute steal for someone. top man.

[@Dave64track]

Great video that's a nice looking bike.

[@smokinstud1]

I put the throttle on the other side on the marlins. Less conspicuos and easier to use.

[@mike-ology22]

That is funny! Google takes me down public footpaths which has been through 2 farmers fields down tractor tracks. My rear rack is not holding up so well with all the bumps!

[@cbsGD]

only a bit over £800, within my budget range 😍 certainly going to be buying this kit when I have the money for sure

[@RealFinalCionide]

Just built a 3000w upgraded single speed mtb. Battery and kit cost me 489+330 so roughly £819. The battery is 72v 60ah. But doesn’t fit the Frame. Just have to mke it fit

[@roryconroy3701]

Looking good dude, any updates on the van?

[@DudeStuff]

Yeah it made it to Devon and back no issues last month 😅 upgraded the radio again need to do a video about that!

[@zakali7191]

Is there any rear wheel motor with built-in controller ??

[@nicod974]

I 'm based in France, we should associate to do bulk buy. I got an amazing deal in China. For road bikes over 3kw and 100km range

[@chrisolberz3308]

nice bike BTW KT does sinus too nowadays even come with waterproof Higo's. My Risun didn't last too long with thw abuse I gave it. (Mxus 3k 100kg overall weight)

[@nigelking3353]

Cool, but I’ve a bafang, 750 ,mid drive kit, which will do 40mph,17.5 amp

[@DudeStuff]

I hate mid drives for buzzing around town too noisy and clunky I love the buttery smooth hubs all the way. Had a few mid drives but never kept them. They're good if you actually do serious off road though.

[@yetijohn80]

Steve. Any tweaking required to get the back wheel in ? or was it a straight in job ?

[@scottharvey9764]

40 IN FLIP FLOPS u is the MAN

[@jornmulder]

40.28 mph = 64.81 km woooow :D

[@jaykavcher7472]

Any info on andys site regarding sabvotons & qs motors etc?

[@richardwoolley6763]

How much would a kit like this cost . For if rd use .

[@StefanRandall]

That is one hell of a bike.

[@tr1707]

How much harder is it to pedal a custom ebike on your own, like this one, than the bicycle before the conversion?

[@ridgerider7402]

Nice bike dude 😎

[@danielbarnatt9332]

Looks loadsa fun

[@awesomethings6124]

How did you fit the torque arms?

[@jornmulder]

1. 48V 35Amp FOC sinewave 12mosfets Controller. It works for 36v, 48v and 52v lithium batteries. yea nice. is there a manuial for the display? how do i know if i put the setting wrong, like there is a option how much you draw from the batt or * speed etc or how hard it pulls, i mean there are so many options in the display.. or can i not put wrong settings in and then screw the system up ?

[@KallamGaine]

Just bought a marlin 5 2022 and doing a conversion do you think itd fit a 3k hub motor in it? Allso still really debating mid drive or hub want to be able to accelerate fast do power wheelies and have fun through trails not to fussed about trails as long as i can pedle a bit and make it look like a push bike 😂 i will also be doing a 6 mile each way comute

[@jornmulder]

i just ordered 2000w kit, and a 52v 20a batt. what battery do you have on there ?

[@JMarkMiddleton]

Emm Steve, where is the e-bike giveaway as mentioned in your last video? lol I kid ofc watch most of your videos when I'm tinkering about with my projects, hope all is well bud

[@DudeStuff]

Never done one before thinking of issuing a high odds cheap raffal website to make it transparent for winners and better for me to have user contact details incase people outside the UK try to enter. Will be coming soon when I figure it out

[@JMarkMiddleton]

@@DudeStuff I wouldn't know what I'm doing with raffle stuff so I just don't bother lol but yeah your workshop is top notch have you done anything else to it? Currently building my own E-bike but I need about 100 more 25r 18650 cells :) I'm building it with the Enduro E-bike frame and a 5kw 3.5t motor I have a 100A sine wave controller but wanting to upgrade to a 200A As for getting everything tidy and making mounts and getting everything to fit I've invested in a 3D printer which will help me out a lot, my V1 was terrible lol I was lucky it didn't explode with the damage done by vibration to the battery 🤣 but that was also one of those stealth bike replica's which are fully steel but yeah I would like to see more on your workshop bud :)

[@JMarkMiddleton]

@@DudeStuff I might add my V1 would of been loads better if I had a 3D printer back then but my V2 using the Enduro frame will reap the benefits

[@backyardr.c.channel4732]

It will not ship to U.S. even with out the battery?

[@DUB-sential]

Im genuinley curious to find out how terrifying 40mph in a push bike is

[@nizzy4333]

It's pretty sketchy, even on smooth ground

[@DUB-sential]

@@nizzy4333 I can imagine I couldn't do with that and no suspension

[@legend_2778]

One question do what is the top speed

[@jornmulder]

how is your hub so quiet ? mine is very loud if i not paddle.

[@davidanderson6222]

I feel like I’m a fish in a bowl watching. Hate those dang cameras , glad it fell. Lol. Sorry! Love my E-bike though!

[@PRORIDEREV]

Any discount codes ?

[@-Jamie]

What kit would I need for gt aggressor

[@thisnthat6972]

Do you know anywhere I can buy a 3000w hub please

[@lesvickers]

are these kits 1500w and can peak to 2000w?

[@EBikeBuilder_]

controller amps * battery volts

[@Blockedchannel777]

[@singh-sks]

Throttle position looks awkward to use long distance

I hate when people ride electric bikes fast w/ one foot lower than the other.... It's a pet peeve of mine and I've been known to yell at people riding past me while doing that. 😂

[@IamBATMAN2024]

If you’ve got your feet on the pedals and you’re not pedalling, one foot will naturally be higher than the other 🤷🏻‍♂️😂 what ya supposed to do?

[@ianmangham4570]

Relax or someone's gonna stick one on ya 😅
