I BUILT the CHEAPEST 1000 watt D.I.Y E-Bike on AMAZON

[@AutisticMan78]

I’m still impressed my bafang 750w mid drive is still running flawless after 5 years without any maintenance. I also have a whyte e160 running bosh 250 watt to get exercise. I use the bafang more in summer to cruise around. I would love the defang frame with 1000w bafang at some point when funds allow it. Electric bikes are the best invention of today. Love watching your vids buddy don’t always comment but always watch 😁👍

[@petey9338]

I've got the bafang 750w mid drive to which I've had for 4 years and like you not had any problems I've done nearly 10 thousand miles on it 😊 happy dayz 👍🚴‍♂️

I swear e-bikes are like magic. Best invention for the cycling world (or for personal transport). I'm excited to save up and buy one myself, specifically the 750 watt bafang mid-drive.

You cant really go wrong for the price. Great budget build certainly get about quicker than a standard push bike.

[@girlsdrinkfeck]

Disk brakes is a must though. In a year you'll wear down the rims and will need to buy a new wheel

I just bought a bike someone else had converted similar setup 1000w 48v 700quid. And i love it finally getting back into cycling again

[@bentp4891]

The wheel that came with my cheap ebike kit was the weakest part. I'm constantly tightening and adjusting the spokes. The paint is all peeling off too. The actual motor and controller have been good. (I did spend a bit more on a branded battery though)

[@bananasut3804]

is it an MTX rim?

[@joshwileman9549]

[@John-x9x2q]

Best way to secure a raw battery is with a bicycle inner tube split and rap around order tension

[@SchoolforHackers]

Ah hah! I knew I was keeping them for a reason!

[@thirdeyesurvivor3886]

I made two 3” by 3” steel plates with holes drilled in that mounted to the underside of the top tube with U bolts, then I used about 10 half inch thick zip ties to hold the ends of the battery up again the two plates, it worked out great. Looks kinda weird with all the zip ties but works great and very secure.

[@MrIcemanuk2007]

Well done! Great video!! Finally some budget builds.. This is excatly what I've been waiting for!! I want a ebike so bad but just not prepared to pay the huge amount that they go for.. The only thing would of been nice is to see what roughly the distance on a full battery would of been.

[@Chuckyplaysgames]

Yeah i guess the only things I'd do different is get a better bike of marketplace with disc brakes also put something between batt & frame stop any rubbing and tape the sides of the frame to cover battery & other bits give it some water proofing other than that yeah spot on mate seems a good way to go.

[@diarmaidok]

That's class, next time I'd love to see you use it to work for deliveroo for a night and see if you can poach jobs from experienced deliveroo regulars on more expensive ebikes and scooters. That ebike would probably be grand as long as you charge it in the shed. If you're riding it and the battery starts smoking, point it away from people and jump off! Have you seen an ebike fire in real life?

[@Gotta_Bee_Sam]

Love to watch you build, a tricycle sort of ebike on the channel!

[@jackrussel853]

Only just realised you made a video on this as i wasn't subscribed to "ALL" 🙄 i have thought about buying this but i also have a £500 (when new) Whyte mountain bike and a £700 (when new) GT hybrid in the garage that i haven't used for maybe seven years, i know its not rocket science but maybe i should think about converting one of those, Thanks for another good video.

i built my first ebike for 500 quid its a beast .second hand voodoo canzoo with rockshox sektor front and rockshox rear suspension 250 quidand a barely used48v 1500w kit and battery for 250.its saved me a fortune in taxi fares over the last 2 years and i could sell it for 500 easily .its been super reliable hitsover 35mph closer to 40mph on a full charge .absolute bargain smooth comfortable ride . since then ive bought several more inc a commencal supreme downhill bike with bbshd marzochi 888 suspension and titanium shock on rear for 250 .

It's like my build, 1500w48v 52v20ah and it's sooo much fun, tops out at 39 mph, great range of 50 miles from a full charge and with lights & suspension seat-post it cost me about £600.. I love it, best thing I ever did was build my own E-bike, respect! 👍

[@MickyBee73]

@@jaykavcher7472 I'll bet it is, I wish (really do!!) I had the Dosh to build one, I've often wondered if I could eventually save up (hardly likely as I'm useless) 🤣 and maybe stick a 72v on mine with a bigger controller - although it would probably melt my 1500w Voilamart motor, unless I put heat-sinks and used that (is it?) ferro fluid stuff you put in the hub to draw out heat? But I guess I'd most likely have to up the wattage of the hub - I got a bleeding Sabvoton 7245m controller, bought a Bluetooth device and loaded the app to my phone but when I put it on my kit I couldn't get the app to work and when I turned the throttle the darn chain turned as it was locking the freewheel cassette, which really pissed me off as the controller was £180 and the Bluetooth dongle was £40 - waste of money it seemed...but damn it, it seemed a lot more powerful.. But the shunted 35a controller is actually quite fun really, I guess I'm doing ok for 1500w really 👍

[@stentionhouse]

A 33mph bike for 500 quid brand new is mental. Faster than a (legal) moped.

[@thirdeyesurvivor3886]

If you want to go even cheaper you can get a gas engine kit for $100-$150 and that will make your bike go 30-35mph. I had a bicycle I bought for $20 at a garage same and I put a kit that was about $120 from eBay on it and it went 32mph and that’s $140.

[@Paul_Gale]

Not bad , I wanted to buld an e-bike but a gas 2-cycle engine kit was CAD $160 for everything, so I went that route. also at the time of purchase, a lot of bikes were catching on fire while riding or charging. What I wasn't expecting was that the cost of gas and oil is catching me up to e-bike prices in the long run. E-bikes can ride pretty much anywhere but the gas bike has a lot of restrictions.

I just did the same with a cheap old 20'' wheel Argos assist folder. 1000w has massive torque with small wheels!

[@Streetpreaching7]

This is cool to see but at 500 dollars I don’t know it would be worth it. Very quick!! It’s lighter than most e-bike frames, just for pure performance its value may be there. Another thing to consider in the states entry level e-bikes at Walmart are going for around 400$ and e-bikes on Amazon are around 450-500$ that’s for entry level smaller motors. Main concern I would have with this build is stopping power of brakes, and weather resistance. I enjoyed video 👍, good job. 😊 I would include maybe the watt hour of build as this is one of the most important things pertaining to enike specs.
