Finished building my 25mph Ebike - 04.01.2011, 05:18 PM

Gas is getting a bit much and decided to make my old mountain bike to an Ebike. After 3 weeks of searching for the cheapest options, I found a setup for $240 shipped on Ebay. I purchased a 500W 48V system and wasn't expecting much for the money. But I was suprised at the speed I got out if it. Setup doesn't come with batteries, as I was going to use either Lipo or A123. For fun I went from 15s to 20s A123 and GPS'ed a speed of 25mph today. Now I just have to buy some more pack and use the bike to commute to work.
