    Newbie to here with all wheel drive

    Both motors and controllers from volmart so no high rewinds etc etc as I quickly realised that both motors would take a lot more voltage and only heat would really kill them and they both run fairly cool as do the original 48v (Chinese) controllers. I thought apart from getting up to speed...

    Yes identical motors and two independent throttles, batteries and controllers. The 48v front motor aids the rear motor to get up to speed very quickly and helps keep it at speed although doesn't contribute to the actual speed of course as the final few miles an hour are achieved by the rear...

    Cheers benjahmin I wouldn't dream of mixing voltages as that would be really dangerous to say the least I don't actually go on the road at all in my 5 Mile trek to work so legality isn't a problem I doubt my motor would handle 108v so not even going to try as that could be very expensive lol...

    Adding different ampages

    Cheers nealh I will check the voltages of both the 60v batteries when they are both fully charged and if they are out by more than 0.5 I will put the new battery on my front wheel instead of the 48v one and see how long it lasts between charges. I didn't know that as little as 0.5v difference...

    Adding different ampages

    I am running 60v 18ah on my rear wheel and 48v 20ah on my front wheel and just acquired another 60v 15ah battery. Will this just slowly destroy my second battery if I add it to my rear 60v 18ah or will it be fine or should I just swap my 48v front battery and go for 60v on each wheel as its a...

    New controller and lcd

    It depends if you want it restricted or unrestricted. If unrestricted just leave it off and don't connect those wires

    Derestricted or legal

    Self built with all wheel drive so illegal if I went on the roads but at the same time I can change it to pedal assist with my bike computers although my 5 Mile journey to work doesn't touch a road so 47.3 mph.. So Possibly unrestricted at 3.40 am travelling to work lol

    Hi everyone I'm John from Lincoln and got into electric bikes a couple of months ago and got the bug lol. I commute to work daily at 4am all the way on a nice empty cycle track and then across a field I have 60v at 18ah on my back wheel and 48v at 20ah on my front wheel with a nice big 48v...
