Will E-Bikes Replace Trucks? (Why Ford Should be Worried)

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

No. But it's worth a try!
In this video, I test if my custom e-bike can perform the tasks of a truck.
We upgrade the motor, battery, and controller of this class 2 electric bike so it can tow, haul, and push the limits.

    If you could make it a dually or even a 2 wheel drive and upgrade the brakes these things could haul a food stall or similar small business set up. I would definitely make the rear axle wider for stability. The speed tests were needlessly dangerous dude you could have fishtailed and really had a bad day for nothing...

    I think an upgrade to larger rear tires and a wider rear axel or having a two wheel front and one rear config would allow for higher stability and braking performance as if you only used the disk brakes, the fronts would be nice to have two. If this was done for real, having a trailer set up with its own brakes would probably make it a ton better for the street. I also am questioning the legality of this on the street with the trailer

    I worked on an e cargo bike for a year, they are very popular in London (uk). Hauled cargo stock for business. One of the businesses with the biggest weekly load was selling kombucha, about 30 to 35 boxes (about the size of a beer crate) filled with glass bottles and liquid, whipping around all over London, some locations take about 35 to 40 mins. It's 3 wheeled, all attached to the main (not spit) frame. Crazy torque, full or not. The box seems like it's exactly the same size as the thumbnail one, but with bicycle wheel and fabricated and sold with the whole electric setup

    In the Netherlands, they have cargo e bikes that are capable of hauling crazy heavy loads. They call them "bakfiets" over there. They use these bikes in much the same way people use pickups and SUV's here in the US and Canada. They even use them for delivery trucks around the city. The only catch is that they're not very fast. I would love to see if one of these things can be modified to go about as fast as a Surron light bee or something similar to that. Bosch actually makes a special motor for these bikes that has a lot of low-end torque.
