You have to pre load the rear brake. Apply the brake by hand, pull the cable tight and tighten down the screw. The rear adjustment screw can be screwed in to relax the preload on the brake. It should drag very slightly. The hand control can be adjusted too, screw it out to tighten the cable sleeve/cable.

yeah. I mean he had a mile of slack when he put the brake handle on and he didn't go back and adjust xD. By the way the easiest way to explain how the adjustment nuts on there work is to loosen them both and tighten the one that pushes the cable tighter or looser as desired. You may have to loosen the other nut out of the way a few times or just back it off completely once you understand the direction you are going. Once it's adjusted properly just use the other nut to lock in the setting.

A few ideas. Harbor Freight sells a small angle grinder for $17 that will work way better than a dremel for cutting metal. Lok Tite is your friend, especially for the motor mounts. The weak point of this bike is the foot peg mount--too easy to stand up on the pegs and bend them sidways. Better to mount a pipe sideways across the front of the frame and affix fold up footpegs to it. You might think about adding another support to the motor mount, from the L bracket to the 'floor' but forward of the motor location.

Nice build! Great idea to electrify a vintage style mini bike! I just built a crazy fast razor e-300 scooter using that same 80-100 motor. Just wanted to share the way I mounted my motor, I think it would work perfect for your application. I used the motor case off a stock cheapo 250 watt motor that comes on almost all the cheap electric scooters. I just hollowed it out, broke off the magnets and welded two flat pieces of metal across the front of the case where the 80-100 motor mount holes go. It’s a super strong and clean way to do it. It also adds the added benefit of having a little extra protection for the outrunner because it adds a ring around the motor. It leaves the perfect gap around the motor so it still cools plenty good. Thanks for the info on your video! I learned that I have more options for decent vescs. I’m running the Flipsky 6.6, so far so good but good to know there are other options if this one bails on me.

Quick tip for getting the mount holes marked - rub a tiny bit of grease on your finger then use it to get the front of the motor dirty (not a lot). Then after you wash your hands, rub a blank sheet of paper over the front of the motor (with a hole for the shaft, naturally). Presto, the grease makes a template on the paper that you can use on your brackets. I've seen that trick used countless times on videos of people building frames for vehicles so they could fit all sorts of motors, both electric and petrol/gasoline. Works a treat. Not sure why the manual/cable brake system is giving you trouble - from what I saw you seemed to be doing the cables correctly. But I'm used to mountain bikes with V brakes, not drum. So I could be missing something. It's much the same as the clutch on those little 50cc engines for bikes that were popular here in Australia until they were reclassified as motorcycles and needed license & rego (but they won't pass inspection - cheaters way to ban a fun hobby and mode of transportation)

this is very interesting, and very thorough. It appears to be doing an electric minibike coming from an RC background, instead of an electric scooter background. Do you realize how much 7000 watts is? That's about 9 hp! Long ago I rode a minibike powered by a Mcculloch go-kart engine (which probably put out around 9 hp) and it absolutely hauled ass! But to get 7000 watts out of your motor, you would need a 14s battery (about 59 volts) that could put out 120 amps - and that would cost an arm and a leg! This electric thing is very interesting, and I'm sure eventually it will completely supersede gas engines, but at present, the only advantage I can see is that it is non-polluting, and quiet (good for mobility scooters, anyway) You can buy a 50cc pocket bike engine on ebay for a little over $50 that would be easier to install, go faster, and not require an expensive and limited-life battery. Maybe some people like their vehicles quiet, but a minibike? Who cares?

@kmemz3 жыл бұрын
I'm a bit late to the punch on this, but here's hlw you adjust the brakes, this goes for all types of line brakes, drum, linear pull, or disc: Cable tension. That's it, no frills, no nuance. The lever pulls the cable, then the cable pulls the mechanism, the mechanism pushes the pad to the brake surface. Even the adjustment system that confused you guys so much, is just another part of that; the adjustment just pushes the cable sleeving back, forcing the internal cable to take a longer path (thus increasing tension). You start by getting a feel for how much play the lever that it pulls has, then you pull the lever to the point where it's close to braking, but not. Then you thread the cable in, and pull it taut, tightening it down in that position. The brakes should work pretty much immediately, but they might be either a bit loose, or a bit tight, so use the adjustment screws as necessary to tune it. Not only is the screw at the end for adjustment, but the slotted screw/nut pair right on the lever are also for adjustment; the screw itself for tension, and the nut to screw into the base of the lever to provide cross-thread torque to hold it. As you keep riding, you might find that you have to readjust these occasionally as the brake pads wear down, that is normal. That is everything you need to know to be able to tune your brakes, applying those tips should solve your issues figuring it out. As for the eBike side of things, it definitely works, but it's very jank. Maybe consider buying a high power front hub motor, and get it to a bike shop to get a good fat tire rim spoked onto it and trued. Not only will that give better results and speed than the skateboard motor, but it will save you a ton of space in the frame to overbuild a battery, and you can probably fit a disc brake onto the hub in place of the drum, which gives you both the brake cooling advantage, and the advantage to apply visual learning onto your brake tuning, by being able to look down the side and seeing how twisting the mechanism squeezes the pad into the brake, then the brake into the other pad. Though, it'll be a jank installation getting the caliper into position for sure. Worth considering though.

The link shows your motor produces 17Nm of torque. I use a Bafang BBSHD for my ebike, which can produce 160Nm and 1500W peak when used on 14S, pulling 30A from the batteries (modest for 14S3P or 4P packs using 18650 cells, if each cell is rated at 10-15A). Even the Bafang 250W produces 80Nm. The motor you've got there is for something with little wheels, like a skateboard, so the low torque is mitigated by small wheels (AKA low gearing) and the high wheel speed produced by the high kW output gives you your speed. 17Nm with that wheel/tyre combo is painful and the motor is going to pull huge amps and still not really be any more powerful, unless you can gear it right down to multiply your torque. You don't see 40 ton trucks with 2000hp engines and 300Nm of torque, you see them with 300hp and 2000Nm of torque, to move the load. Point is, 'power' is not always the amount of kW your motor can output, same as HP figures for cars mean nothing if they aren't match by a decent torque figure - that tyre shredding off the line isn't HP, it's torque.. You might be surprised what a 1kW motor can do putting out 150Nm of torque.. Hope you can make it work and enjoy it - you're right, electric is the future..

Looks like a baby 250 watt motor. Where did you get 7kw from? My 1000 watt scooter goes 30mph
These numbers make little to no sense. 130kV is 130,000 Volts! The motor is advertised with max 148A. With these small wires just not possible. Maybe 25A. Times 36V = 900W.

Shouldn't that motor be inside of some sort of housing to protect it from dirt/dust?

Haven't had any issues so far, but that's probably a good idea!

@@DIYesk8Builders is the limited speed from the controller or is it because that’s the motor’s max speed capacity? Thanks!

It has to do with the gearing and the KV of the motor and the size of the wheel

8000w can get you to at least 85 mph why’d you gear it so extremely low? And also love the video super awesome build

Battery is a bottleneck on the build. Only outputs 1500W cont.

I'm struggling to see how they come up with the 8 kW rating on that motor. I also notice when I clicked on the link to the website where they sell them, they're listed there as max power = 7 kW and max current = 148 amps. That's a lot of juice to go through such a small motor.
