E-Mountainbike Project

[BL_RV0]

Hey guys!

My new project.

I'm converting my 2008 Giant Rincon 26" mountainbike with a 18" frame to electric, and am going to have all components mounted on the bike rack. Plan is tomorrow I'm going to go find or pick up some angle al or steel and make a motor/esc mount, using the existing mounting holes for the mount. Electronics are a CIM FIRST brushed robotics motor, a 24v e-scooter ESC and 24v 10-12ah lead acid batteries. I have 3 12v 10ah? batteries from my old e-scooter, hopefully they're still good and I can use them in this project. My design is simple, going to buy a 16:1 reduction gearbox for the CIM motor from ben, and then have a 15t sprocket with a chain that runs down to the 32t rear wheel sprocket on my gear cluster. Works out to about 24mph. I'm uploading a test video of the electronics with my 6s neu pack, and will get pics when that is finished uploading. This project *should* be finished a lot quicker than my gas pocketbike, because there's a lot less to do.
