That's great to hear man, welcome back! It's a super nice build I must say, thanks for watching brother!

I have a similar 1200w direct drive with integrated 30A controller but from Saili Motor. Next time you order off Ali, ask your supplier to include an extra controller unit (hub needs to be disassembled and soldering then required, but now you can repair the hub). This integrated controller unit is about $30. One other thing about your lower speed...check that P14 on the sw900 display is set to 30A and not the default setting of 12A. You might even push P14 out to 35A. Happy riding

Thanks for the tip man 👍I haven't needed to replace one of these controllers yet, but it shouldn't be too hard. Oh yeah, I'm well versed in programming, already set the display to 40A, and battery can do that too, but this kit was only advertised to 30MPH, so I think they down tune the controller for heat management, or at least that's my guess. Thanks!

"The aliens came without warning, unleashing their powerful weapons on the unsuspecting humans. They targeted the major cities, military bases and power plants, hoping to cripple the resistance and take over the planet. But they made one fatal mistake: they underestimated the ingenuity of the human engineers. Using scraps of metal, wires and batteries, they quickly assembled makeshift electric bikes with torque arms. These devices allowed them to accelerate faster than the alien vehicles, and also prevent axle spinout when making sharp turns or braking. The human bikers formed guerrilla squads, attacking the alien convoys and bases with hit-and-run tactics. They used their torque arms to attach explosives to the alien ships, or to jam their sensors and weapons. They also used them to rescue other survivors and transport supplies. The aliens were caught off guard by this unexpected resistance. They could not track or catch the human bikers, who seemed to appear and disappear at will. They also could not understand why the humans would use such primitive and inefficient machines, instead of relying on more advanced technology. But the humans knew that sometimes, simplicity was the best solution. They used their torque arms not only as tools, but as symbols of hope and defiance. They showed the aliens that they would not give up their planet without a fight. And eventually, they won."

Ha ha! I'm glad to hear you've jumped onto the torque arm bandwagon, but unfortunately a new study has shown that torque arms are not enough. You have to actually weld the axle to the frame. And don't worry about the motor cable. It can handle it.

@hightech-lowlife

Жыл бұрын

Well, if we're going for "safety" above all else, then soon you will also have to weld your bike stationary to the floor, and wear a full suit of bubble wrap, but then that will be deemed far too dangerous because people were crying that the bubble wrap chafed them. Then the only way to ride an ebike would be through the use of VR goggles, but then they will take those away because they're dangerous and the lights were causing some people to have vision problems, so ultimately the only safe way to ride an ebike was to lay in your bed asleep, but even that can be dangerous - "28 days, 6 hours, 42 minutes, 12 seconds."

i really hope that amazon bike can withstand the torque of the motor since ive heard some really bad stories regardless to their assembly quality in the workshop so i would double check every preinstalled thing on the bike.

@hightech-lowlife

Жыл бұрын

Thanks for your concern. This is a Schwinn frame, not an amazon bike 👍There is a stigma in the ebike community that if you don't spend a lot on a premium brand frame, then your bike will break and fall apart, but I know this from experience to be nonsense. A lot of premium frames will favor lightness over strength, which actually leads them to be less useful for powerful ebike conversions (many will use aluminum or carbon - and thinner frames). I'm sure there are people who have broken their frames, but same with people who have spend hundreds more or even thousands on a gucci frame (I've owned specialized and trek bikes before). What you mostly get from ultra premium is better components like shocks/shifters/brakes, but as far as the frame itself, I don't feel the price is justified as you're mostly paying for the name and status. I go over every part of a new build anyway, as almost everything needs adjustment.

@hightech-lowlife

Жыл бұрын

It's a good question, I haven't had enough time with one of the integrated controllers to say for certain, but I do believe they are reliable. If you're more DIY oriented I still would recommend a separated controller, just because it makes it a bit easier to troubleshoot and replace parts more easily than an integrated unit, also you could upgrade the controller later if you wanted. But if you want something very easy to install and a cleaner look, I wouldn't be too weary of the integrated controller hub motors 👍

The schwinn bike frame platform is a good frame to build a ebike on that why I picked the schwinn axum for my ebike build. So what's the top speed on that setup? About 29mph?

Hi: I commute 31 miles each day. I'm interested in a build with high reliability... I push the bike and 750W motor and burn out the motors (hall effect sensors). I'm thinking that a 1500W motor may be better for my application - 22-25mph on pretty much flat roads. What brand/motor would you recommend? Do you think the build in your vid would work for me? Thanks for the vid... it was awesome!

@hightech-lowlife

Thanks man! You're burning out motors all the time? 1500W Will do 30-34mph, so it will have an easier time if you're not pushing it to the limit for sure 👍 I've used all kinds of kits, haven't really had any issues ranging from very cheap to more expensive, but YMMV. I think this build is perfect for commuting like that, depending on a lot of things that 30 miles may be pushing it for run time (again depends a lot) but if you can charge at work part way, then it's super easy.

Have you ever installed front hub what do you recommend or suggest.

@hightech-lowlife

Жыл бұрын

I tend to stick with rear hubs as you have more control over your bike (torque steer) and also because the rear dropouts are stronger than the fronts. I personally wouldn't put too high power of a motor on a front fork, but if you're just casually riding and not doing anything too crazy then it should be totally fine. Just be sure to use torque arms on a front hub because they are much more prone to failure. Anything in the 500-1000W range should be good, there are a ton of front hub kits out there 👍

My 1500w motor with internal controller failed after I hit a bump. Immediately, threw an error code 2 (brakes) which I can't reset unless I open up the motor and check out the controller. I've built several ebikes. This was the first internal controller bike I built and it is the only one that had the controller fail. The controllers are electronics and they're too fragile to put in the wheel. It looks good but it is not practical. Unfortunately, I speak from experience.

There are definitely advantages to having a separate controller, the in-hub all in one packages are more for convenience. For my personal bikes I would always choose to have a separate controller.
