What's the speed & range on that badboy ?

[richirich1113]

I've been able to hit 40mph for short bursts on flat ground. My general riding is 32-35mph for 15miles and another 5miles at 25-30mph then the batts are pretty drained. It has 3 power levels #1=22mph #2=32mph #3=35+mph
My longest ride is across town to my college which is the 15miles round trip averaging 32-35mph so its not bad, if i could only keep it in power range 1 or 2 id go alot farther, but thats no fun. LOL

Thanks for the reply, Thats pretty impressive she must have cost a few bucks to build a bike that performs like that.
My issue with building a bike that does more then 20 MPh's is here on long Island, NY is the law is fuzzy & I figure if I keep it under 20 I wont be inviting any issues with " The Man ", LOL.. all I need is some over zealous cop confiscating my $ 1100- E-Bike.
I wish I got a battery with more Amp Hours though as I would like a little more range.

Nice bikes! I sure like Sianelle's trike-- Mine's not as fancy but it goes pretty well with an 800 watt, 48 volt motor. It's my grocery getter. I've built 3 regular bicycles with 350 watt motors but this one's been a keeper.

@ Liberator. Very cool project. Keep up the obviously good work.

That is definitely an E+ I have a Tidalforce. The motor and electronics are what defines it. A Tidalforce does not have "nine forward power modes, nine resistance (exercise) modes..." Odd to insist it is a TF with only the Montague frame being similar. That was a model (a cool one) that E+ put out. A nice bike but not a TF.

The one drawback seems to be a lack of batteries--It's apparently stuck with the 8ah nimh hub where the TF could add on other makes of packs the E+'s computer prevents that and E+ inexplicably offers no aux packs which is killing the brand--at least according to posts here. I wish this weren't so as it's a great bike otherwise.

I broke my ebikes motor 3 times(with lead acid battery) and now i have gone for lithium. Good speed and mileage. Well i haven't finished with the first charge yet. They had to do a few modifications to get the motor on as the old one had the back braking system, incorporated into the motor. This version rides so well i can actually ride better on the flat without switching the motor on at all :0) Thats good because i need the exercise :0) Now all i have to figure out is where to put the trailor attachment as the side that it was on before well it can't be put there again as there is not enough of the nut/screw space....ah well we will work something out. Just happy with a smoother/lighter running bike. Had a 20kg battery pack on this ebike because the original battery didn't go very far. The 20kg pack went for 80km i think ...

Before the big game tomorrow, what do you like best on your hot dogs? Ketchup or mustard, or both?

Nimbuzz,
Really weird , I agree that that Divashenko insists he has Tidal Force bike and clearly cannot understand that only thing similar to old TF on his ebike is a frame.
As you rightly said what describe ebike is an electric system which is entirly different on E+.
Shortly he has E+ system on TF frame , why he cannot understand this? Stubborn Russians.

tonylumps Hi
I'm not familiar with your bikes. They look lightweight compared to mine. Are these- kit bikes, custom, or other..??? What is you motor, battery, distances, speeds and weight (if known). I run a 36v 20ah 800 watt and the bike (Wmart Avalon) is fast but also heavy. I like to get lighter bike with good speed & distance.

they are both great bikes,Do you have a relish too?

[Oldbikerider]

This is my very first e-bike. It may be a new brand too. I don't see any here yet.

[jayhawk12]

Tell us more about your bike! Wattage/ battery, name/ model, etc? Performance, etc.

[happyJohnrn]

This is my third build since 07, all my past attempts posted here.. Finnally got a Bionx. Just in time for the high gas prices

Well, it is a 36 V lithium battery. Not sure of the wattage. It is supposed to run 20 mph for 30 mi. Have not tried this. I only use the motor for the short hills I encounter when returning home from my "exercise" route as an assist. So far, all is well with the bike. I did have to do the normal adjustments after a few miles. The brand name is HummingBike, LI model. Built with Police/Security details in mind. It comes with a flashing light on a pole that I will never use.

Thanks for your interst. Sorry about the delay in responding.

My build story of the bike is here:

http://uglyplastik.blogspot.ca

I have made a bike myself, including frame and wheels and subsequently converted it into electric. The kit comes from Doug, the owner of www.gocarlite.com
I can only say positive things about Doug and how he manages his business, he was great at answering all my questions, giving me tips and sent the kit right away after I purchased it. The kit was tested/verified and is working as it should.
It is front geared motor in 700cc wheel. I have front disc brake and rear coaster brake in S2C Sturmey archer kick shift hub.
I am still not finished with the project and want to hide wires a bit more + maybe paint the battery so it is not very obvious that I have an ebike. Due to higher speed with the motor on I will also put a bigger chainring, since my current one - 42teeth, is not providing a good ratio for high speed, i.e. need to pedal too fast to keep up with the motor.

Hi everybody!
My name is Roma, I'm from Moscow (Russia).
I'd like to share with you a link to my video review of the e-bike I took for a test-drive:



It's in Russian but I can translate it to you on request and make subtitles

This is my Ezip Eco Ride. I commute to work on it every day unless the weather is very bad. Note the custom fenders I made out of Lexan.
