electric bicycle question?
nitronorbe
i have some decent size 14.4 volt lithium batteries that i got from work and they are worth hundreds of dollars. i have a new 26 inch mountain bike and i thought it would be nice to convert it into an electric bicycle. does anyone know of the cheapest way to do this? i've been looking online at kits and stuff but it's pretty confusing and i don't know if 14.4 volts is enough or if i need to combine some batteries in series to make 28 volts. Also i know know if using 28 volts on 24 volt motors will damage the motor badly or not. Any advice is greatly appreciated. . Also i want a bigger motor with fast speed if possible.
Answer
I doubt very much that your mechanical and engineering skills are up to the job. All you have is some batteries. In order to build an electric bike you will have to design some kind of drive system, you need more than just a motor. You also have to design and build some kind of controller and a wiring harness to connect everything together. You also will have to build a holder for the batteries. Decent electric bikes sell for well over $1000 for good reason, the components are costly. Decent conversion kits can cost upwards of $1000 as well. There is no cheap way to do what you want to do, even if you had a complete machine shop, welding equipment and the knowledge to put everything together
