Hello everyone! Sorry I havn't been around, but now that i have a little bit of time, and some money again, I am in need of help. The last few things that need to go on the bike are the seat post with a seat, and the controller with throttle. So I have been looking at sets of controllers with...

Hey guys, Thanks again Chuechco, your help is always appreciated. Yeah I know the rear sprocket is quite small, but I didn't want to deal with taking it off since it allows freespin for coasting. Though gear ratio currently is 1:1. Is that insanely bad? I just figured with a controller and...

Thanks J.conceptcion, I will definately check out some of those volt meters. Currently I am looking at buying the last essential thing for my bike which is the controller and throttle. Do these guys look good to you? Throttle...

Hello! Sorry for the late update. Thanks for all the suggestions guys. What I ended up doing is ordering a British borable gear Sprocket from McMaster Carr, which had the same English properties as the metric gear that's on the back wheel. So the chain and the gears all work together. (of...

Thanks ryf! Ill keep looking into it.... I am just slow with these kind of things. And here is an update on what I got. I really didn't do much today except cut out a few pieces for the eventual spacers of the rear end of the bike, and found a few solid rods for the axles I need to turn down...

Hello everyone, So most parts have come in and the last few things are being ordered. So this upcoming week I am going to finish my frame. Now I am looking at getting a chain for my motor. Problem is that the motor sprocket can't use the same chain as my rear wheel that I got. Also I can't...

Hey all, Nah it's fine. He's my partner in crime for building our electric minibikes. It was his idea We started these projects. I'll post up some pictures of what he has done if he doesn't mind. And currently I need to wait till the wheels come before I finish off the frame. Hopefully I'll...

Hello! Well I didn't get much done on my bike today, but I got a few drawings out. So thanks for the advice, im gonna go for it and see if these batteries are correct. Everything that i have found says Deep Discharge is the same thing as Deep Cycle. So I am going for it. Though as I read up...

Hahah, Im not too sure about that. As much fun as that would be... not sure if the school would like something that loud rollin down the sidewalks and streets. ... Plus... :ninja: this thing wont have a permit or nothin. Not sure if they want an unregistered bike loudly rolling around. Better...

Hey Chuechco, Haha, I was hoping low discharge rate was the same as deep cycle. :D Thanks for getting my back. So I found some more on ebay, which has some decently priced batteries. And so I found these which is a pack of 4...

Hello everyone! And thanks Chuechco! I got some new battery news. But first im happy that I got in the machine shop again today to work on my little bike. This thing is somewhat coming along nicely. I got the seat part figured out, and i believe i have the parts for the handle bars.... (If I...

Hey guys, Thanks Chuechco, Ill def shoot him that link though I think he may be doing the same thing as me. We may just get two motors and save on some shipping costs. Thanks for the link! Now you mentioned a 48 V battery system? I was reading about over charging your motors and I'd rather...

Hey Chuechco, Yeah my friend and I have worked on a school project called Mini Baja (I don't really know who actually knows about this competition) which is a like an off-road dune buggy which is made to do various tasks. Plus for another school project I created a mansized Big Wheels which...

Hello everyone! Well, its a tid bit of lazyness, a little of being late to class, and a little bit of wanting a joy ride around campus while pedestrians are everywhere. I just fear going 25-30 MPH when there are tons and tons of people out and about is a bit.... dangerous??? Maybe??? Idk. I...

Thanks for the reply Chuechco! But remember I want this thing to be light weight, so I can carry it in and out of classes and such, (prop it up into the corner, then ride off when class is done.) Also not having a brake maybe rough if im going more than that. Is 1000 Watt overkill a bit with...
