E-Trike now running.

[Homebrewed]

Hi guys.
Well, with thanks to all of you who gave advice on what parts to use my trike is now electrified. Have only done a few miles so far but pulls like a train.
Q128H motor driving through chain to rear axle. 20A sine wave controller, 36V battery from my other bike at the moment, but am going to make a 48V .

Cool - good effort!

Looks nearly ready for pizza delivery, or maybe local taxi?

Jeez you must pop wheelies with all that power!

Excellent conversion very neatly carried out, congratulations.

I only read as far as 'Jeez ' and had to double check the avatar, though you had morphed in to d8veh .

A homebrewed pucker looking mid hub conversion, great looking job.

Yes it does spin the drive wheel on soft ground if I give it to much juice on take off. A job for the future is to make a differential so both rear wheels can be driven and also fit outboard disc brakes on both wheels.
