Your instability is due to the battery placement being mostly rearward. It should be redistributed to be closer to the center of gravity for greater stability
@cementhapavery5 ай бұрын
Yes. I have a pushbike with a cantilevered basket mounted on the rear rack. When this is full of groceries or whatever the front wheel becomes unstable. Dangerous - too much weight in the wrong place.
@BTW...12 күн бұрын
His stability issue is solved by NOT GOING THAT FAST. The stability is directly related to survive-ability. There is no question about stopping. It's gunna happen in a planned or unplanned way... but at 70km/h. 🤯 The motor is always gear engaged to wheel, unless it falls off. I seriously question the design integrity of that motor mount, the welds, and it's ability to resist torque forces, especially doing the death wobbles. But, what a sight to behold... dragging the motor along by the cables... at even 40km/h let alone 70 😆 Yeah, mass distribution... having a lower CG would always help more so than forward aft location. Moving the battery box so it isn't rubbing on the driven wheel... would be a good idea.

Correct on the battery placement. That's why when I bought my conversion kit for my bike with the hub motor, I bought a battery that I could mount in the middle of the bike to offset the 25lbs of the motor in the rear. Putting the heavy battery in the back would stress the frame to much when making sharper turns. When I make turns now it feels normal other than the extra weight on the bike but it's balanced well. I read that others noticed problems with to much weight in the rear.

Well done for your brilliant effort. May I suggest a couple of things. I would look at mounting the alternator by the pedal area and using a belt drive or similar to the rear wheel therefore giving you a more centralised mass. Following on from that, the battery pack would be much better slung under the main frame spar and would help with stability for your bike and reduce the speed wobbles experienced. Your efforts are nothing short of inspiring and you guys should be very proud of yourselves, just centralize and lower your overall mass for a much better handling bike. Front forks would also be worth changing to damped forks instead of rigid. Subbed, and sending you best wishes.

And from what I see, that is a 150 or even 100A alternator, which is 1800 to 1200W.

I work with sspeedometers professionally. The car Speedo is fast, the GPS speedo of your phone is accurate, provided you have been travelling at a steady speed in a straight line for 30 seconds or more. Car Speedos are required by law to never read slow, so the manufacturers of cars typically make them read 7 to 10 percent fast, which gives a safety margin that allows for changes in brands of tyres and tyre wear. For future tests, trust your GPS speedometer on the phone. Just give it 30 seconds at a steady speed to settle out any GPS averaging requirements. 🙂

@@michaelbrownlee9497 RPM gauges are more accurate than speedometers. Historically, manufacturers have designed speedometers to show about 5% higher than people actually are driving. This is so they think they are going faster than they actually are, since everyone drives above the posted speed limits. This has changed with modern vehicles, since they are now tied in to GPS locators with navigation systems. Now they need to show true speeds.

the numbers are all wrong. it does what you can see it doing, but the numbers are all wrong. this makes people who give real numbers look bad. if someone builds a 3000watt capable bike with a 4000w battery many ignorant folk are still going to think that this bike is more powerful. the bike is great, but the numbers are a serious problem.

@@kght222, I wasn't speaking about the numbers. I was speaking about the construction. But, you're right. 10,000 watts is over-stating the available power.

I've been itching to tackle a "e-bike" project using a old Razor pedal powered "Big Wheel" style trike to make what other videos call a Drift Trike. I've watched dozens of other videos but only this one of yours and Still you've given me more USEFUL ideas than the others. Awesome, Thank You! I've subscribed and I plan to check out your other videos while I finish gathering everything I need. I promise I'll document the progress as best I can but with a basically non-existent budget, it'll be a while before I have anything to show. 👍🏻

Just a thought I had, if you mount the battery off the rear wheel opposite of the alternator, you may balance it some so that it doesn't want to fish tail at speed

okay boss I want to see what you can do with this idea . using this alternator / engine & using the big wheel idea from another video on you tube titled "this is not a bike / DIY" I'd like to see you build a reverse Tadpol style recumbent trike. My idea would be to have tween chain drives from this motor to both sides of the big rear wheel with the motor located behind the driver's seat. battery to be mounted in a housing that would be built over the rear big wheel . I think when you see that video you will be able to see my vision. As the youngsters say it will be sick! another great build video as always many thanx!

That's super clever. Well done for putting an old alternator to very interesting use. To keep the controller cooler, consider adding an aerodynamic ducting to the heatsink to channel air over it as you ride, perhaps adding a quiet Noctua or Arctic Cooling fan to help with the air flow 👍😉

Great idea and execution! If I had to critique one thing it would be to make sure when welding to get one consistent bead whenever possible for the most strength. What I and any other professional welder does is tack the ends of the work in place, remove slag, then run one consistent bead along the joint. I understand it's not always possible to get one consistent bead but it really does make a huge difference. Other than that small note I think you killed it. I truly am inspired. What a cool way to repurpose an alternator. I love that you make as much as you can yourself. Like using all those power cells in parallel. Really cool stuff!

the numbers are all wrong. it does what you can see it doing, but the numbers are all wrong. the video claims 10000 watts, he is using two batteries that are capable of 1500 watts each. this makes people who do projects and give real numbers look bad. this is not good.

@@kght222 I honestly hadnt even thought about it/realized their numbers were inflated . I know enough about batteries from building amps and guitar pedals and being an e cigarette user to have realized it but for some reason I didnt. Good eye! Edit: I'm not going to rewatch it but I thought in the video they were using many cells to make their packs then a bank. It's likely why I just assumed they were being honest. But with the seriously inflated battery/cell ratings perpetuated by the companys that sell Sony, Panasonic etc. cells for all we know they are going by what the seller claimed the batteries wattage/mah's were rather than testing the cells themselves which for most things cant simply be done with a MM accurately anyways. But the accurate tolerances for all the major cells are readily available online and if they are smart enough to make this video then we have to assume they likely did know the real tolerances.
