Putting a Sur Ron 60V Battery In a Segway X160! WILL IT WORK?!

[@TheeDrSack]

Thinking of throwing the 60v 60ah in there for the full range

[@RunPlayBack]

Looks like a fun test! Keep the Sur-Ron experiments coming! 👍

[@angelodicicco9146]

This is a sick video please keep making more!! I was planning to get a 60v battery what the range on the x160 with the stock 60v?

[@kaydenlee7326]

The battery upgrade to make speed faster does it work with sur ron youth

[@przemysawludkowski5769]

I've swap S 48V controller which I was using with 60V custom battery to X 60V controller but I can't see difference. There should be torque and speed increase but bike is behaving same way. Ant BMS is also showing that it Takes only 60A while it should reach at least 80A now. Is there any programming needed?

[@dexgray4581]

Would this not eventually burn out the x160 motor or blow the controller?? I heard the x160 motor is different?? Is this not true? What are all the differences other than rim size, no headlight, and battery voltage? Thank you!

[@_donjose]

They said the 60v runs perfect on the stock motor

[@sandgee999]

Does the x160 have a governor wire that can be cut to increase the top speed?

[@chesteryao]

No its in the app. Change it to Off Road mode. I also just change the sprocket. I went from stock to 42T and I went from 31mph to 40mph Gps

Will there be any long term side affects of running the stock controller with the 60 v ?

[@asease9203]

I’m not a pro, but I’ve heard the long term is you’ll need to get new motor, and possibly new belt. Just like a car engine. If you up the rev and Hp it’ll need some supporting modes to handle the gains.

[@skkracing9994]

Work a stock surron controller with 72v ?

[@kyrisbarnes1960]

The test wasn’t necessarily done correctly. I have both. The speedometer is calibrated differently from the stock Surron. Also the sprocket is much larger. The controller has no impact on anything. If u swap the 19inch wheels and sprocket from the x260 to the x160 along with the battery the top speed will be exactly the same. You’ll need to use a gps app to confirm because again the speedometer is calibrated for the much larger stock sprocket

[@DESOUSAB]

@@TheeDrSack Sorry - are you saying you can get up to 65+ mph with a Chi Gladiator on an X160??

[@TheeDrSack]

@@DESOUSAB yes and no, I only get up to 45mph, but haven't touched anything on the bike besides swapping better battery, to go 65+ youd need a beefy controller and tbh I think the x160 motor wouldn't enjoy it. X160 starts to have issues past7.5 kw, sur ron is double but will have issues oast 16kw, testing belts and stripping sprockets alongside burning out the motor

[@itsnoahscopp]

Did you guys think about the different sprocket and wheel sizes?

[@itsnoahscopp]

I would like to see a test with a 42 tooth sprocket as that gives the same gear ratio as a stock 48 tooth on the sur ron

[@michaell1212]

@@gritshift i would love to see that

[@chesteryao]

@@gritshift Maybe when you put a 60V battery do the shunt mod to up the amperage and you will have yourself a X controller?

[@chesteryao]

@@gritshift Inside the controller look for a small metal bar. Some controllers have 1 2 or 3 of them. You can add solder or bridge them to increase current flow increasing more wattage more torque. And thanks yes that's my e90. Its just has basic bolt ons and mhd stage 2+ probably 400hp lol

[@chesteryao]

@@gritshift Yes and make a video doing a shunt mod to the controller. And damn I wish I knew that before I purchased the delphi coils. I had been chasing misfires and the issue were my injectors. Got some index 12s and no more misfires.

[@nickc7039]

What about 60v battery with x controller?? Thanks

[@_donjose]

I just changed my x160 battery to a 60v With the stock X controller, just noticed at the start It’s louder and sounds like it skips, might need to change the tension on my bike since now it’s different torque 😅

[@myphonemines417]

Recently purchased Segway x160 I swapped out battery to surron 60v 32ah the controller to x Controller and a surron Motor. I put a 48tooth sprocket . Max mph I can get is 37mph according to bike speedometer. Is this normal speed after all the swaps…. And can a surron harness correct the speed??? GREAT VIDEO BTW

Awesome video just subbed! So what I'm hearing is the x160/ x260 /surron motors are all the same even tho they "say" one motor is bigger then the other? I have the x160 and all I would have to do is upgrade the battery and sprocket size and I would be going as fast as a x260 basically? From what I understand the controller upgrade from x160 to Surron x would be a waste of money because its the same.. so all in all just the battery swap and the sprocket swap and I would have speeds of x260 correct ?

I have a segway with the sur ron x controller, it 100% matches their results, may have wasted time getting the controller lol.

Also, if you want supermoto setup, keep the wheels and change the sprocket to get that top end out of it.
