Watched all four of the 2000 Watts videos it's so refreshing someone of your knowledge given a step by step video without shoving a paid sponsorship in your face or asking for a coffee or to become a patreon . Thanks for sharing and helping people find a cheaper alternative e bike 👍 .
I was just thinking how good that bike would have been when I was commuting into work from Rayleigh High Street to the First Depot in Hadleigh. Then you only bloody rode it hahah. What a pleasant coincidence.
Been watching back on your builds and I think your good at building and describing the goods and bads about the kit brilliant you've helped me out thanks, I've seen a few negative comments but as they say you can take the horse to the water but you can't make it drink keep up the good work
I had a 500 Watt fat bike stolen back in May. I have just baught a 1000 watt MTX off ebay for a Carrera Hellcat 29r. This series has really helped out. I still need to get the battery I was planning on getting a 48v 19AH. This will now be my third Ebike and first self build. Thanks for all the information, although I would of liked to of seen you install the pedal assist.
Thank you for a nuther video...the video explaining about spacers needed on the fitting of hub ..and I had no idea aboute touq arm..stuff like that ..mate your a good guy THANK YOU
Built this kit last year, it's more than sufficient for most needs, hasn't let me down once. Battery drains fast at highest power assist levels,but I rarely use them. I manage to reach about 30-33mph on the 3rd level with some peddling along. I only use higher power assist with hills / bridges, as my cadence gets uncomfortably fast above 35-36mph. Perhaps I should replace my front sprocket for a bigger one. Consider it a speed pedelec kit, it behaves in a similar way, with similar speeds & acceleration, only with the option of a thumb throttle (and cruise control apparently). Best lockdown project I've done!
I managed two build my own e-bike with 52v battery at 45amps. And I ran it on a 48v 1500w rear hub motor plus a 48v controller and it’s glorious. Zip around town and backroads with it. Can sort of keep up with slower traffic in order to keep it smooth.
@@Mash3OH3 your 1500w motor would be drawing more than 1500w. they can handle 2000-2500 before they overheat and cook themselves. People run them past 3000w with hubsinks and statorade.
@@Mash3OH3 i've got a similar setup. 52v and 45 amp controller. it peaks at 2400W, but sits around 2100W. The motor gets pretty hot if i'm riding lots of hills/going too slow.
Yeah I ran into that cruise control issue on my first couple of bills she was terrifying couldn't figure out how to turn it off I don't use those break either
Hub drives have about half the torque for the same power as mid drives which is why people say they can't get up hills, however the 55nm my 1000w 48v kit makes gets me up any hill no effort, maybe sometimes a little pedalling to take some strain off the motor
I've got a 500w hub drive pushing 30amp@48v (1440 watts) for the last 1200 miles lol😅 It pulls me up a nice 20* hill at 20mph And when i go off-road with it, it doesn't seem to care whatsoever that I've left the pavement 😅 Granted i only weigh 130lbs and the bike weighs 58lbs.
I use the befang mid drive and have thought about buying the 1000watt mid drive with frame in battery and motor closed on frame, but it’s still gonna do the same thing so I’m not wasting me money it’s pointless imo.
Just because it doesn't have torque sensing and can lurch off too fast especially on very low speed turning manoeuvres. I prefer the control of the throttle because you can gradually use it cheap pas is all or nothing
Nice one - although I don't agree 100% with all that you present - hub drives work just fine - I picked up a cheap 2nd hand bike with an inframe / inbuilt battery 36v - and 250w rear hub motor and no throttle only PAS. That extra assistance got me powering through mud puddles and boggy terrain with ease - I have been mountain biking for many years and have never had so much fun and ease plowing through normally tough and long mud bogs even with mixed 50/50 dirt/road tyres. Hill wise very useful but I did have some issues in icy conditions on mid hill starts because the backend kept slipping out as I needed to spin the cranks before the motor kicked in - I am sure with a thumb throttle it would have been no problem as I could have kept the power on , even with the wheels spinning and gained enough momentum and balance to get to the top.
I got an 52volt 20 ah to a 1000 watt hub motor and im about to shunt the controller my mates just done it to his and it pulls away from mine of the line for a good bit then mine slowly catches up and hes a good few stone more then me and hes running a 48volt to a 1000 watt motor and it wheel spins up the dirt with a chunky nobbly tyre just with a little bit of soldering
I built a 1000w hub kit , with a 48v 20ah battery , I live in Canada and rode through the last 2 winters , I had a top speed of 50 mph which I rarely hit unless on open bike paths . Fantastic product , over 2000 km on the battery and regular use at one point was biking 200 km a week . Total cost was around 900$ cdn eith the battety and my only regret is not getting a rear hub , but for snow , the front hub with gravel tires took me through harsh winters with zero issues . Year 2 and my battery is slowly giving and I lost alot of acceleration but still commuting to work in half of the time public transit takes . Was really interested in seeing a 2000w kit and this video answered alot of my questions thank you . I do wonder, what is your average distance per charge ? I was getting around 20 miles with mid use . I won't be buying a pre-made ebike, I agree the hub motors have a bad wrap online but in reality , I wouldn't use anything else , glad to hear someone saying that as well. Cheers , great videos. Lots of info , cheers!
guna try the cruise control out today on the marin i bought off of you she is still flying out of itnearly done 2000 miles on her now with no dramasi did cover up and move the controller as i,m out in the wet all the time other that that its beeen spot on thanks bro :)
48v 20ah battery will power a 2000w for about 30 mins at full power, so will go probably about 15 miles. At a lower power (generally apeaking you'll use about 750-1200w on your rides) it will go around 30ish miles.
Hi mate love your stuff how much for a bike with 2000 watts at and bk so u have 2x 2000w all together 4.000 w just a though anyway how to build a 2000w bike for me plz
Too many factors like a car depends on conditions and how you ride but probably 2 to 4x more range than a typical 9ah to 13ah 250w battery in my experience
What brand of brakes and gears do you use please? I can't find any ebike brake and thumb shifter combos anywhere. I want to change from standard gear leavers, to thumb leavers, but can't find those combos.
Cant wait to try/build my own , recently had shot of vitus e sommet vrs first time on emtb then a blast on mates talaria sting it was awesome lol love aw the videos keeping it real cool from the start fan from glasgow 👍😎
Did the 500w hub conversion on my bike and it can make it most places with ease. Would recommend doing it and the only thing is that the website said free shipping and had to pay like £70 to UPS for delivery.
what setting you have it on in program 14 ? its about 1-50a, but what does it do, if i put in 15 or 40 what is the difference ? nobody knows or can explain it to me, can you plz ?
finally a guy thats not a bell end and actually does his videos how they meant to be good work my dude reason i said finally not a bell end bcuz this guy makes videos instead of jus a dude sitting in a chair talking about will a bike ride lol
Steve question I have one of these kits with one of these kt controllers which come with the kit do you know if I was to get a programmable controller is it possible to make the bike give me a constant 2000 watts or even push the Hub motor even passed 2000 watts cos I have seen in some of your future videos that you push 2800 Watts Max out of one of these 2000 watt kits
The standard controllers are 40a you're not going to be able to put much more through the standard kit without causing issues and affecting reliability or longevity. Maybe 60 to 80a controller but you could cause damage to many things. The motor phase cables might melt. The bms might blow, the battery might struggle to pull thar current, the battery fuse might blow
Nice looking bike , I’m 6.2 so might need a larger frame , I currently ride a NCM Moscow plus 29er XL frame (it’s a 48v 250w hub) pedal assist only , I do have a throttle but it’s 🇬🇧 spec so software locked or something as it only goes walking speed at full throttle 🙄.
Do you wanna build me one I have a Haibike 2020 model. Brilliant wee video been watching the build would love it myself buddy keep up the great work and good content videos. Fair play 👏🏼
Another great video! Please excuse my ignorance, I’m brand new to this but looking into converting my cube MTB into an E-bike. Which conversion package have you used from the KerbE website?
We purchased this Vivi 27.5” electric bike and a Tentaquil 26” electric bike for our 13 and 14 year olds. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxUiL0GnyDjP32RJdd660sP8mZk4CRLTCJ The Vivi was much easier to put together. With the Vivi, there was a video link to assist with assembly which made the process easier to follow (we did put the handlebars on upside down, but it was a quick and easy fix). With the Tentaquil, the assembly was not as simple to follow, but after we messaged the company for an assembly video, it was easier and they did respond quickly. The other major differences were that the Vivi has a grip throttle on the right handle (like a motorcycle) and the Tentaquil has a push throttle that you use your thumb to activate. The monitors were also different, so if you’re looking for something specific in terms of changing the bikes functions, pay attention to what the monitor offers. We were really impressed with the overall quality and functionality of both bikes, but if you’re looking for more power and an easier assembly, definitely go with the Vivi!
I've just recently finished an almost identical build (2000W Andy Kirby kit on a Claud Butler 29er MTB). Mine doesn't want to go past 30mph throttle only on the flat in power mode 5. I'm about 90kg and have checked brake's aren't rubbing, tyres fully inflated etc. Any ideas what else I should be checking? Have emailed support but they said 30mph is normal top speed. Cheers
@@PaulL42654 unfortunately not! I guess there are too many different factors at play for anyone to give a true ‘top speed’ for all cases. I will say that in my experience I don’t think my build would ever have gone 40mph, even if ridden by a very lightweight human, fully charged and on a perfectly flat smooth road.
I think hub drives can do most things & apart from massive downhill style jumps they good to go. I choose a mid drive just because it suits my needs and at 750watts peak 1000watts it’s more than enough, I don’t go over 25mph anyway as on a mountain bike that’s as fast as I want which is why I made front ring bit smaller and crank arms to have hill torque upped over top speed.
Power should not be an issue for E Bikes! Cars aren't power limited but speed limited! Bikes should be speed limited as cars are but leave the power limit out of it!
Yup 250w is annoying and I have to still put in effort on the pedals to get up the hill at a decent speed. On my 750w bike it's night and day difference.
got my head checked By a jumbo jet It wasn't easy But nothing is No … When I feel heavy metal (Woo-hoo) And I'm pins and I'm needles (Woo-hoo) Well, I lie and I'm easy All of the time but I'm never sure why I need you Pleased to meet you………😂😂😂😂😂 look how much you have improved……….. this vlog is still getting views pal.

Thanks a lot! 😁
How much would it cost to buy or build an ebike like this. I literately would almost die to have it lol. You had to be going 40 in town
Steve,one big advantage with hub drive is if the chain breaks (and they do) you can still get home provided you have the battery capacity 👍

You really like those 2k motors.. and with all your experience. I tend to listen..
They're just good all rounders to be honest. Decent power and reliable.
I spent months looking for one kit that works for what i want you sold me thank you

Make shore when you're testing any ebike don't pedal just use the throttle accelerator.( No pedaling)

So good to hear! Awesome ☺️
This is exactly what I want to do in PA but we have some weird laws around it so I was wondering if the Andy Kirby kits have power selection modes¿?
You can see on the display a number 5 in the bottom left, this can be changed from 1 to 5 with a different power level in each
That's Hadleigh shit surprised I ain't seen you about??
Im a little late to the party but i just ordered this kit. Now i gotta save some pennies for the battery.
Cant wait to get it on the road eventually.
Thanks! How many miles do you get on throttle? Also how big is the battery. I appreciate all the hard work man!
48v 20ah battery will power a 2000w for about 30 mins at full power, so will go probably about 15 miles. At a lower power (generally apeaking you'll use about 750-1200w on your rides) it will go around 30ish miles.

What kind of range would you get on such a big motor?
I currently ride a Bosch 250W motor, but would not deny upgrading at some point...
Too many factors like a car depends on conditions and how you ride but probably 2 to 4x more range than a typical 9ah to 13ah 250w battery in my experience

When you say remove it? You can ride it as a normal bike with the kit on. Obviously it's going to be heavier
