Anyone seen this?

Anyone heard anything else about this? Yahoo! Groups

I know there is the Currie one,but has anyone built one using a scooter motor like the Unite one? Electric Scooter Motor 13.7 Amp - 250 Watt - 24 Volts on eBay, also Parts Accessories, Electric Scooters, Scooters, Sporting Goods (end time 02-Apr-08 19:11:54 BST) Are these motor's any good? What size would you need and what voltage? What are the advantages/disadvantages of chain drive? Thanks in advance for any help given!

The mustang looks good Paul,a mite long though! Regards Darren

Exactly mate,something a bit....different! I wouldn't buy one,unless I lived in the states,there were no hills, as it's just something for a bit of a laugh and not to be used as a serious ebike. Thanks for the welcome fella! Regards Darren

Maybe i'm just a big kid!......I like the look of this though!:o

I don't currently have an ebike flecc,but I'm getting the Alien motor Kit from Ebay to fit to my current hybrid bike.

I'm looking to do a trip of about 65 miles in all,which battery would you recommend flecc? Regards Darren

Cheers fella,I've never thought of that!

Hmmm that's stuffed that idea then,told you I didn't know much about these things,infact most of the stuff on here goes way over my head:o Thought it may be useful for getting greater distances:rolleyes: ,is there nothing else you could do,other than taking a spare battery or using a petrol motor?

Thanks for the reply flecc,I asssume it's illegal due to being a petrol motor, so would it be possible with an electric motor instead?

Not knowing much about ebikes:o i'm sure that this is probably a stupid question,but is there a way of powering an ebike and charging the battery like you would a car? I would assume the motor would run the wheel,which runs an alternator somehow,which then powers the battery. Apologies if this has been asked many times before! Regards Darren

Hello Planky, Thanyou very much for the info fella it's greatly appreciated! Thanks Trakker

Yes it does look rather similar halfmedley,do you know if it's any good? Thanks Trakker
