Electric bike power

I just got version one working. 6s a123, mamba max, 4035 outrunner. The OEM RC ESC wouldn't stay synched on the hills, but I think it might have been a bad cell in the battery pack. I will retest it tomorrow and see what is up.

Final speed about 10mph last I tested. Runtime is about a mile on 2 amp hours so far, but with a new cell that will probably improve. It has a ton of torque, the motor is rated 4hp continuous and 5000w peak.


I have to be careful, it likes to wheelie with the seat so far back.
