G'day guys, Its been awhile since iv posted here as I have been enjoying my Ebike over the summer I built thanks you to you guys and all your input. So thanks soo much for all the help it made this process soo much easier and I learnt a heap. So update. Yep its finished total cost €429...

Ah Cheers PC2017 good to know.

Im taking the second hand route for this build its risky but I really have to keep it to a minimum for this one. Its a good learning experience so far and everyone on here has be ridiculously helpful. I really cant thank you guys enough. :)

I sent back everything and got my money back which was great. :)

Are these cables prone to failing?

Oh hahaha Rookie error but thanks for the info. I looked at the ad and it said sinewavebut had no info if it was a sensored or sensorless controller. Yeah I understand buying things willy nilly isnt not ideal like I have. The reason for buying off Amazon which I hate doing is I had 125 euro...

I was just about to order my motor but then realised my KT controller dosnt have a 9 pin plug (that seems big enough) for the motor to connect to but has what looks to be a Z916 (according to GRINs connector learn page). I think this is the motor connector as it has heavy gauge wires on it...

No worries at all PC2017 Ill keep posting as the project continues. Its slow going due to that defining factor which is money but Ill get there God willing. On the Amazon thing I would love there to be a UK or european supplier so a family in this region could benefit from our hobby. If you...

G'day Bloke and Sheilas, Just a quick update on how the project is going. So as stated before I have 2nd hand 48v down tube battery for (130 euros) and I just ordered a: - KT 30A sine wave controller with the water proof fittings. - Thumb throttle. - PAS sensor - LCD3 Display Amazon order...

This is all fantastic real world info thanks so much guys. I just purchased (aka took a chance on) a second hand battery its 48v 11.6ah 556wh and from what you guys tell me this will be more than enough to start with. I would have brought new but Im trying to keep this projects cost to a minimum.

Hahah Road Rat love it!!! Ill head over there now and check it out. :)

Those number are very impressive and if thats all the battery you need you must have a very light weight set up. Cheers for the info.

Mate legend that clears alot up I would have never guessed that. Ill defs check out endless sphere and the c5 setting on the KT controller. 43miles! Crikey that is alot further than I would have thought I would have been happy with 21. Thanks again Im off to start researching parts to buy. :)

Hahah Okay I need some education on some terms what is ES, Cwah and a C5? Just outta curiosity is there a way to calculate a ball park figure of what range I could expect from a 12.5ah battery? If it helps I weigh 70kgs, the bike is a steel frame bike with no suspension and 28" wheels if that...

Ah righto I understand now. Its nice when the numbers relate to the product unlike some other manufacturers that just through numbers out into the ether. Yeah hasnt everything besides my wages. Xp Do you know if there are any European retailers of the AKM100? Once again thanks for taking the...
