Hello all:
We have a craft brewery a few blocks from our house where I often take one of my ebikes to pick up my evenings' beverage and when I arrive the owner often says "I see you're riding my bike again". A couple of months ago he came out to check my electric bike and after a short tour was asking if he could try it. I dropped it to the lowest power setting and off he went. Of course he came back with that silly grin most of us ebikers seem to have and immediately offered to buy it. "you can buy the next one" I replied.
Here's where I'm at now, updates soon...

I see you've never commuted to work on a 100lb bicycle before. But seriously, my e-builds are basically 3000 - 5000 watt fly-weight electric motorcycles, the pedals make it appear legal. This bike will be speed limited to approximately 54km/h (+30mph) by having a 48 volt 30ah battery although the controller is rated for 84 volts, the no pedal range will be about 60km. I'm already collecting parts for the next one which will have 60 volts 40ah and run motorcycle tires/rims front and rear, more on that later. I've just picked up materials for the battery/controller and seat mounts. Fruttolo you may want to avert your gaze for the next part....
