ebike build
Parts I used.
NEXT Avalon Bike from Walmart $100 48V 500W rear hub motor kit from ebay. $227.90 shipped. 4 old 12v 7ah ups batteries. New ones would cost $66 locally. Assorted nuts and bolts. Junk parts $0. Top speed; 25mph downhill, about 21 on level road. Not bad considering I weigh about 270. I easily got 6 miles out of these old batteries, with a little left. Charge time was about 1.5 hours back to full charge. Installation was fairly easy. Came with thumb throttle which I didn't think I'd like, but turns out I like it better than twist. Questions?
