Hi there, I'm a young ebike enthusiast from the South Coast of the UK, I've built three ebikes over the past year, my first was a 250w front hub motor with a 36v 9AH water bottle battery (full of 18650 cells) Just a cheap frame to attach the weak kit to, was more of a test than anything.
My second is my pride and joy, it's a 3.5KW peak rear DD hub motor, running a shunt modded 72v controller, overvolted to 24s LiPo 10AH, which gives me more or less 100v. Running it in an Apollo Paradox frame with new front forks, I made the battery enclosure myself out of plywood for light weight.
I'm aware of the laws surrounding this kind of power.
My third build is a simple mid drive BMX using a brushed 24v 250w motor and controller, running at about 32v with 2x4s 5AH lipos. No pedals, just a metal bar, as the sprockets are the worng way around at the moment it isn't a problem (I have a big chainring on the motor and a little one on the rear wheel so it doesn't have ANY torque, and is useless for now.)

Thanks for reading! If you are interested, I have more detailed pics and info on my main build ( the powerful one)
