[@JudeTheYoutubePoopersubscribe]

It's why I bought an EV motorbike instead of a 125cc. I've got 8000w peak power and 72v 48ah battery on my electric dirt bike and it's fully UK road legal as well. 0-30 in 2.9 seconds is what I've measured lol and it's restricted at 54mph sadly which is strange as it can maintain that even up a kind of steep gradient.

[@Lifewithnathan.]

I Myself am a teenager and you are correct in a way haha. i have the 2000w kit and oh man, the temptation of just full accelerating all the time. dw i do keep safe by only going high speeds on empty roads or off-road. but going 20-25mph in a town where i can be the same speed as the traffic makes me feel so much safer and more relaxed.

Dude be careful, your local cops could be watching this vid 😨🚔🚔🚔

[@TotallyNormal88]

I can get to 40mph on the flat, 45 down slight incline(15.5mph without special effects obviously) running a 52v 20ah battery, 45a peak on 1000w hub motor from 1000w Terradise kit & Risunmotor controller & display combo. Doesn’t sound overly quick but for anyone that isn’t familiar with the availability of speed on a 20kg bike, it’s too much or at least can be. When I started on 500w with a 15.5mph limiter, it felt great, got up to speed with no issue, battery lasted ages at limited speed etc… that got boring so I removed the limiter and managed 24mph(was 36v at this time) I then shunt modded for more torque and went over the top pulling 1800w peaks which caused me to replace the battery fuse for higher amp as it kept popping. I then went for a 48v 13ah pack, slightly better acceleration, wasn’t keen on the 7V voltage sag under load but it was fun nonetheless. Top speed at that point was 28mph which prompted me to get a better controller with field weakening which got up to 32mph. Upgraded to a 20ah 48v battery which gave more range and less sag. Then upgraded the controller to a 2000w one with no field weakening, dropped top end to 30mph. Bought the 1000w kit with a better wound hub motor which gave me 35mph top speed. Got the new Risunmotor controller and that gave a little more. Eventually ended up with a 52v battery on the 1000w hub and Risunmotor controller, shit torque for 2kw but nice top speed. My point? If I was to jump straight from no power to 52v I would have definitely killed myself several times over. Start lower speed and work your way up once you’re fully comfortable and competent. My next step is gonna be a shunt mod on the risun controller for more torque; whether my battery can handle it, we will see. Here’s a question for you though Dude Stuff; do you have any recommendations for low turn motors with a high top speed and maybe high turn motor with great torque but high efficiency and power at low speeds? (Non geared) would be interesting to test the difference at the same power levels.

[@jonniebeck1395]

I have a 2000w kit and for me it’s plenty. Going 35mph down my favourite trails is more than enough to get my adrenaline flowing. It’s always a good idea to upgrade your brakes to handle the extra speed. 🤘

I’ve had the same sized powered ebike kit (not Kirby) on a Halfords pushbike for nearly 5 years and I’ve done 50mph only one time (on private land) just to see what it was like, it was ok but I honestly believe the sweet spot is 27 mph for this type of combination of ebike. Having so much power is great for the acceleration up to the cruising speed of 27mph and it’s very handy for getting out of a potential conflict with another vehicle.

Mine does 35 top end speed and I agree that 28-30 is the ideal cruising pace. Plus I can gear nearly every bike to have a comfortable pedalling cadence even at that speed I still like to pedal.

15mph is a joke, when you can pedal faster. I did well over 40mph going down steep hills in Wales, it feels so much faster.

[@markjob6354]

I own a Rize Electric Bike (Blade 2), with a 1000 Watt Bafang rear hub motor and a really great on board programmable computer. In the special "Unlocked" mode, my bike can do 50 km/hr. Even at the locked in limit of 32 Km/hr, the speed feels rather dramatic - Especially down hill. Now, my Blade 2 weighs in @ roughly 90 LBS. They list it @ 85 LBS, but this beast of a bike feels closer to moped frame weight than it does to a regular sports bike. One of the concerns I have about going at high speeds on electric bikes is can the bearings handle such highway speeds ? If you go 40 or 50 MPH on a bicycle frame which was not designed for it, then what can happen besides the possibility of high speed wobble ? Is it possible your front or back wheels could fail ?

[@markbennett6658]

That one is definitely OTT. Insurance is really about liability to others particularly in terms of injury. If somebody stepped out of their garden onto the pavement that you were hooning down at a ‘loose’ 15mph and you hit them it would make a tidy mess of both of you so it needs to be mandatory for a machine like that. However, an eBike speed limit of somewhere around 25mph without all the regulations seems to be reasonable to me.

How hot are the brakes getting? It would be interesting to see stopping distances with current brake setup. Maybe take it somewhere out of the way and set up a couple of cones and brake down from 50/40/30. Then see how many times you can brake from say 50 to 40/25/10 before brake fade. Also, with the bigger kits like this, what are the stresses on the frame over time. Is metal fatigue going to be an issue due to flex. Some might say it is a mountain bike, so OK. I am concerned this is may be too much for a standard frame. Stay safe, dude.

what frame?

[@bearmvp99]

People would absolutely buy this kit including me. Sometimes that power isn't necessary for top speed but rather for people who live in areas with a lot of steep hills. 1500/2000w is good enough for flat roads but when you approach 30° hill it just dies on you. Couple things for you to consider-you should try to find controller that's compact enough so it can fit inside the triangle of M/L frame. In order to do that you should sell batteries with smaller capacity. 24ah is amazing but for most people who commute to work/school etc 20 or even 18ah will be enough. Second thing is not for you to consider but rather for people who buy this kit. UPGRADE YOUR BRAKES. Top speed is not the most important thing when it comes to ebikes if you can't stop it properly. Shimano saints, magura mt5 etc are the brakes you need. Those cheap tektros, old avid brakes will be cooked after few aggressive "15"mph rides :D

[@JudeTheYoutubePoopersubscribe]

There's one hill on my commute where even with 1500w on full power + my leg power I still can't go faster than 14mph up there and it goes on for almost a mile...🤣. I feel like that's the only time where I think to myself I'd like more power.

[@IDuBStepSZ]

Tbh the problem with most of these cheap Chinese DD motors is that there are no options to have different windings. I'm pretty sure if there as less windings the torque is higher, but top speed is lower for the same amount of volts and amps put in. Also, where are you that 2000w is dying on you ? Must be steep😂😂

true that, going with the flow in traffic is saver ! then 15km between it.

[@user-vx1th6sd4d]

You're spot on with the analysis of 15mph is too slow, I have a 250 Watt mid drive bafang motor fitted to my mountain bike and it's not quick enough to get you out of trouble, I've had many occasions where I wish I had more power just for 10-15 seconds to get me out of danger. On the other hand I still like the 250 Watt because it still encourages me to use it for exercise. It depends what you want the bike for, I do agree 15 mph is too slow.

Requiring different levels of insurance, speed rating, frames, geometry, brakes, helmets, lights, mirrors, suspension, etc. It's not all negative: The video was well filmed and recorded. With clear sound and very informative dialogue by an experienced e-biker/motorcyclist.

Wish mid drive would go to 4000w\higher without paying an arm and leg for custom😅. Sucks bafang is gimped and being regulated but other companies arent weird...

[@JudeTheYoutubePoopersubscribe]

CYC make that sort of product. The mid drives can handle 5000w with a 72v battery.

[@kevinhansford3929]

Tbh at those kind of speeds I'd want a more substantial frame! One of those moped inspired frames maybe

[@C--A]

Much more chance to get stopped and fined by the police with a moped looking e bike 🚨👮🏻‍♂️ Whereas a e bike that looks like a bicycle won't draw attention to the police!

When DVLA do what they do my friend no disrespect.

[@jarwinjacoba4867]

Is the motor and battery water proof?

[@JudeTheYoutubePoopersubscribe]

Yep

[@CrapKerouac]

So roughly 10 horsepower if it was a small displacement motorcycle, but with better acceleration because of the reduced weight?

[@JudeTheYoutubePoopersubscribe]

(and the instant torque of an electric motor).

[@CrapKerouac]

@@JudeTheKZbinPoopersubscribe Yeah, I'm thinking that would be better than a small displacement motorcycle for running errands and commuting. Nimble, and you can ride down a sidewalk and maybe no one will call you out, if you're not misbehaving? Looks a scream.

[@JudeTheYoutubePoopersubscribe]

@@CrapKerouac yeah way better, I prefer ebikes to motorcycles tbh.

[@CrapKerouac]

😂 to scared to talk 🤣😅😂 send it send it,👍🚴‍♂️

[@ATWL123]

Well said dudestuff, people don't understand the speed concept, anything above 30mph+ is so sketch 😂😂😂

[@rochekml]

Would buy

[@sirbuzzkillington3263]

Just becarefull as to not shear off the back with that amount of power😂. As ya say mate bicycles arnt designed with a motor inmind.. aluminium is light and kinda strong but not really 4000w power strong, the motor will stretch the aluminium which in turn will compromise the strenth at the back.. So basically one day youll pull the throttle and the back end will snap and the wheel will be flying around erverywhere 😂.. Anyways great video mate 👍 appreciate it

[@research_netcoms197_on_youtube]

id imagined that riding on roads even with a fast motor would not be equivalent to the impact stress on a frame, that mtbs are designed for.

[@antoniopalmero4063]

Sure hope no one backs out of their driveway 😂, ride safe dude .

[@JudeTheYoutubePoopersubscribe]

Drivers should be checking all their mirrors when pulling out.

[@antoniopalmero4063]

@@JudeTheKZbinPoopersubscribe I totally agree , but unfortunately the real world doesn’t . 🚲

[@JudeTheYoutubePoopersubscribe]

@@antoniopalmero4063 Highway code basically says it's drivers responsibility to keep bikes safe on the road. I still ride like everyone is out to hit me though since I did have a crash in May 2023 which totalled my first rear hub motor and it was some old guy who admitted he wasn't paying enough attention and paid enough to get my bike back to how it was.

Nice motorcycle
