Hack Your Electric Bike and go FAST part1

How to HACK your Electric Bike and make it go faster. Part 1 shows you how to Hack the SW 900 Display and change the settings to make your E-Bike go fast. This should be used for off road. The max speed for Electric Bikes in the US is 20 MPH. But most e-bike will go a lot fast. So let's get started and setup your SW 900 Display for max speed.

I did this to my Deep Power E Bike. Its a 48volt 500watt with 10amps. I went from 20mph to 31Mph . HAPPY

[@christianharry5866]

I found it difficult to increase mine, please can you be of a help, just wanna be happy like you are

[@r-kidhenry1285]

Thank you so much for this video from the UK many thanks 👍

[@boeclarke81]

Buddy, you video was so helpfull, much appreciated. However, I'm trying to get that list you have, with the menu options listed. Can't find it online anywhere.

[@maxpower001]

Built miIe about 2yrs ago and got 8870 miles on er'.. very reliable and tops out around 38mph, very fun way to zip around town

[@haroldsshed876]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@johncolantonio7689]

Thank you very much that was nice and slow, so I could understand it

[@gunstargizmo]

This isn't hacking. The engineers designed the firmware this way so that the settings can be altered for each country. Speed restrictions are set for liability reasons. Some manufacturers offer instructions on how to access those settings. The process of holding down two buttons is basically the same for most electric bikes.

A question, is possible to skip the lcd control in order to star the bike without this component? Because I think this is very fragile and if it goes broken, no bike. Thanks.

[@ShabirHussain]

Thanks a lot

[@NiSiochainGanSaoirse]

on my bike, the pedal assist senaitovort is at its most sensitive on setting 0001. if I raise the level to 24 it seems to take an age before the motor kicks in, which is a pain in the arse when you're trying to set off in a high gear on an incline.

[@-_-Alx]

thank you, very useful

[@romaingaultier239]

hello thank you for your video. the p14 parameter on my sw900 goes up to 50 A. I have the impression that it is there but inactive because setting it to 1 or 50 does not change anything in torque or speed. possible in your opinion?

[@MrLWFred]

You don't want the controllers current rate to exceed the battery's maximum continuous discharge rating. Find out what your battery max discharge rate is and keep the controller set below that and that's as fast as your going to go until you buy a bigger battery and a controller with higher current rating. (a controller for a higher watt motor) So here's the deal... lets say you have a 48v 15ah battery and a 48v 750w motor. (750 / 48 = 15.62) A 48v 750w motor gets a 15a controller that's suitable for 48v. That's stock and you can't make it go faster by changing anything in the settings. I wish it was that easy but it ain't. You can buy a bigger 48v battery with 20ah or 24ah and that will make it go about 3 to 4 mph faster plus give you more range. lol pfft. What a joke. To make it faster you have to, #1 Buy a 52v or 60v battery. The motor likes any voltage you feed it. If anything the motor might get overheated on a hot summer day but, no worries. It will be fine. But don't go over 12v for what the motor is rated for. Stay safe. You don't want to make it dangerous fast, I hope... Maybe I shouldn't be telling all this... To late. Ok so #2 Buy a 30a or 35a controller that matches the battery's voltage (52v or 60v) and a new display that is compatible with the controllers protocol. (controller and display have to work with each other) Long story short, Buy a bigger battery. Buy a bigger controller with matching display (buy the kit) Slap it all in there and you will be going fast enough to really hurt yourself. I take no responsibility for any hospital visits or burials. The information is for educational and entertainment purposes only. Be responsible guys. These bikes can become very serious very fast so use caution and follow all laws and rules of the road. Let me know how fast you get that 750w motor to go after that upgrade. My guess is 60v battery, 35a controller on a once 750w motor will do 45 to 50+ mph. I am so about to delete this reply. This is dangerous information! You all can thank me later. Remember this is educational and entertainment purposes only!

When i turn the screen on and ride my bike the battery is not there anymore. Do you know how to fix?

[@boomhauer421]

I set P14 Max Peak Amp to 15 but when I ride up a steep hill with my display on Current, the Current goes up to 33! What am I missing? Thank you for the video.

[@dagnisnierlins188]

Set max peak amp to whatever your controller box can do or the amps your battery is rated.

[@StanFranChaisur]

hall sensors of the brakes are connected to the controller, but do not work does not generate the energy, how to turn on. from the display is there any setting and which one is in row p17

Does this only work if you buy this lcd display and install? Also does anyone know if this will work on the Hurley Big Swell E-bike?

I noticed you set yours to 50kph not MPH. Thanks for the manual link, hopefully it's got the error codes. Mines showing an E-7 code.

[@user-oy9zy4ds9m]

You would need like a 3000 watt motor to get to 50 mph anyway

hello Brazil I have a display just like this, from my electric bike kit 72v 2000w motor

[@grazianos4507]

ho.. I remember .. this display Is very old.. ADO have Just change model wirh S886 .. di you know ?

[@echospace7347]

P 8 doesnt show mph or kmh on side so for me I don't think it is miles per hour but it defaults at 36 and goes up by ones when modifying it

[@nasanction]

If it's 36 it's probably Battery Voltage 24v/36v/48v/.

[@dagnisnierlins188]

P15 is battery cutoff voltage, very important to set it right to prolong battery life. 48v battery set to 40v-41v, 52v battery set to 42v-44v. P14 set to whatever the controller box rated is or battery bms amp rating.

[@kiddermereside]

Don't get this one can you explain please

[@dagnisnierlins188]

@@kiddermereside hi, battery cutoff voltage basically means a protection against complete battery discharge which can lead to a dead battery that can't be charged anymore and the p14 setting is for the bms(battery management system), the max amps should be written on the battery, set the p14 setting to that.

[@martinmaddox5315]

My bike breaks the engine every now and then during assistance. is it normal, does it have anything to do with the speed reached?

[@haroldsshed876]

If you reach max speed that will happen. Thanks for watching and have an Awesome day 😊

[@jackkumar1]

​@@haroldsshed876Is there any way to prevent the motor from actually braking (using motor) if we are say going downhill and actual speed is greater than max speed set.

[@lorenzomoretti2972]

So I had the same conversion kit for my bike and I remember it going 35MPH I buy a new battery for it and it only does 25mph Does anyone know where I went wrong Is there a way to derestrict these further because I feel like I’m not getting the full potential

[@misterproblem509]

I'm not sure but could it be tbe power output of the battery?

[@lorenzomoretti2972]

I Figured it out I had the blue cable connected restricting the power output 😑

The faster you go the faster your battery drains. If you have a lot of miles to your destination it wouldn't be good going faster. I'm German we are never wrong.

[@user619tlsdca5]

Doing these hacks will lead to major overheating and possible fire. Specs there for a reason from not having controller overheat as well as the battery. Recharging gets real risky and those E bIKE FIRES likely the end result..

[@PyroAnonymous]

If your ebike's speed limit can't be raised past 20ish mph, setting a smaller tire size will bypass it, but your speedo and odo will be off.

[@jacobvillegas9369]

How small should we go?

[@luis4721]

how much faster?

[@PyroAnonymous]

@@luis4721 that depends on motor power and how far can you go down in tire size

[@luis4721]

@@PyroAnonymous i think my motors 750watt n i can change my wheel size to 18inch down from 26in

[@PyroAnonymous]

@@luis4721 Changing the tire size from 26 to 18 inches would grant you roughly 47% more top speed; so if the bike's dash reads 20 mph, you will actually be traveling at 29.4 mph. A 750 watt nominal motor should be able to reach that speed.

not sure how this makes my bike faster. my 4 yr old could of told me this, not to worry you got lots of clicks, good for you richard edward. why are people thanking you. theres a lot of stupid people out there I guees.

[@asoka2000]

You should mention this only works on specific bikes. It doesn't work on my IGO Outland Oka

[@orthicon9]

Yup. My RadMini ST2 has the speed limit setting in the menu, but maxing it to (I think) 40 km/h only gets me to 33 or 34 km/h (up from the factory setting of 32).
