Ever heard of a MASTER EBIKE ?
Hi. I bought a MASTER EBIKE at an auction. The only identification I can find on it is "MASTER EBIKE....MADE IN CHINA." I need a charger for it, but do not know where to find parts for this ebike. I am attaching a picture so maybe someone may recognize it and know where to buy parts for it or where they sell this ebike in the USA. It has a built in battery pack that detaches from the bike with use of the key.
If anyone knows anything at all about this bike I would appreciate any help you can give. I have lots of other pix I can send if anyone is interested. Thank you for your help. Sincerely, Charlie.

Easiest thing might be to figure out what the battery chemistry and voltage are and just find a charger that fits those specifications.
I'm guessing it's sealed lead acid, 36V or 48V.

What he said - further, if that last pic is the charge connector in the upper left I don't see any sense wire connection so most likely SLA. Swingarm, hub motor? Let us know how it rides if/when you get it going.

Hi Broadway.....it is a hub motor in the rear that powers it.....i hope it works....i paid $100. bucks at an auction for it......WHAT DOES SLA mean? There is a little connector in upper left that actually looks like an RCA video connector....is this a connector for the charger?

Yeah this thread is from '07...so yeah the SLA battery pack probably isn't functional anymore knowing the shelf life of SLA batteries in general. I bet with some decent DIY skills, one could disassemble the battery housing and use a lithium battery of some sort to really beef it up. Depends on how much money one would want to throw into a project like that. That's assuming he still has the battery housing (dead battery and all)
