OCC Schwinn Stingray Bafang Electric Motor Conversion

[@brianburgess1703]

Pretty neat. My new OCC has been sitting in my garage for years trying to figure out what to do with it.

[@peterschmitt6088]

Great kit. If you order one make sure you get the extra fat kit that will fit the 120 mm BB.

[@accidental_relevance]

Just ordered the kit for my OCC Chopper Bike. 1000w BBSHD

[@DeadHorseBikeGroupRJ]

Muito legal! Adquiri recentemente uma chopper como esta e estou ansioso pelo vídeo com você pilotando ela! Parabéns!

[@edwinsalonga2486]

How did you install the magnet sensor coz my cable is too short, it won't pass the tires or rims. Thank you

[@peterschmitt6088]

I ordered an extension cable for it directly from Bafang. They have a lot of accessories and parts available.

What kit did you use,I'm doing a 20/20 3spd now?

[@peterschmitt6088]

Bafang 1000w electric motor. Direct bolt-on system using the 120 mm wide bottom bracket option required for fat tire bikes.

[@electricchoppers]

Nice build 😎

[@brandondanganan6662]

I just bought the Bafang 48V 750W BBS02B E-Bike kit for a schwinn stingray but the motor would not fit. It measured 3 inches and I needed 5. Any suggestions on which the correct one to get is?

[@edwinsalonga8871]

120mm is the size of bottom bracket.

[@peterschmitt6088]

@@edwinsalonga8871 You need to get the extra fat kit as the BB is 120 mm

[@johnlupo4371]

Bike was designed by Greg Blake for Schwinn. Orange County choppers had nothing to do with the builds or designs. Just used their brand name.

[@peterschmitt6088]

Gotcha. I am sure OCC got paid for the use of their name. The motor works very well on this bike and I have three-speed ranges.

[@peterschmitt6088]

As was explained to me by a Snap-On tool dealer, the bike design was made for Snap-On in limited quantities. They must have gotten approval from OCC to use their name. The bikes didn't sell well and I was able to purchase one for a very low price.

[@connworldentertainment3752]

Did you need spacers for bottom bracket? What size chain ring did you install? And what alterations to chain guard bracket did you have to make? I have two of these bikes and want to go electric on one. Thanks for info.

[@peterschmitt6088]

No spacers were required. No modifications to the chain guard but I had to change the way it was attached to the brackets by mounting it on the other side of them to push it further out from the frame. I had to add a few links to the chain to accommodate the 48t chainring.

[@connworldentertainment3752]

Thanks

[@derricknielson8672]

Very nice Where can I consider to purchase this from? Thanks

[@psychopete3848]

Did you have to adjust the chain guard any or did the crank fit without having to move it?

[@peterschmitt6088]

Only had to alter the chain guard brackets slightly.

[@medialgestionpublicitaria1020]

What puller did you use for the bottom bracket? I took out the trodo elk bottom bracket but I kept a piece with 6 edges, and I can't find any tools to take it out

[@peterschmitt6088]

I just used standard bottom bracket wrenches and pullers.

I wish mine was a factory 3-speed... fortunately I know where to get a conversion kit for a 3-speed or 5-speed hub. Does it make much of a difference changing gears? I'm actually looking toward getting this mid-motor instead of a hub motor

[@peterschmitt6088]

The mid-motor is great for this bike. A multi-speed hub gives you various speed and torque options.

[@psychopete3848]

A fixed sprocket is better for ebikes.

[@peterschmitt6088]

@@psychopete3848 The three-speed hub works very well with the mid-drive motor.

[@peterschmitt6088]

Don't bother with it. Just install the extra fat bafang kit that will fit the 120mm BB.

[@taylorbennett3572]

What's it like going up a hill? Thinking of doing the same to my chopper bike. Anything you would do differently?

[@peterschmitt6088]

Climbs hilly roads well. I live in a very hilly area with many road grades that are 10-15%. The three-speed hub definitely helps when hill climbing. The motor is 1000 watts so it has tremendous torque.

[@taylorbennett3572]

@@peterschmitt6088 thanks for that. Im hopefully doing my conversion in a few months! I may come back for more advice haha!

[@peterschmitt6088]

@@taylorbennett3572 If you order the Bafang kit, make sure you order the extension power cable to the motor as it is required since the frame is so long.

How do motor handle a bike without freewheel?

Clean your wires up man, it looks like my neighbors 12 year old put that together

[@peterschmitt6088]

I agree. There are a lot of wires for this system and no place to hide them. I'm thinking about making a box to contain the wires by the front fork. I've got them routed the best I can along the frame. Any suggestions?

[@endliberalism4305]

@@peterschmitt6088 no, I was being hard on you only because I’m jealous. I bought a pre-made ebike last year and am very disappointed, I’m going to try the shunt mod but the controller has been dipped in some gray colored wax substance and I can’t get to the part of the ESC that needs soldering. You’re good man. God bless
