Hey JB .....good job so far ...... As for the rear tire , I had the same issue with my Rhino , on the tire there is a 1/4 inch section of rubber that is the bead and its supposed to get below the edge of the rim and it would slip up and cause a wonky womp womp womp when i rode it . I took the rear rim off and put it ontop of a 5 gallon bucket and let all the air out of the tube lubed up the tire with a mixture of dish soap and water in a sparay bottle and sprayed the shit out of the area the tire would meet the rim in the bead area and it got better but not perfect . SO after a few more attempts i let the air out again and spun the tire to seal in another area and poof it slipped right in . Its a bit of a pain in the ass so ya might wanna get a friend to help ya ... An if ya have a ratchet strap you can put it around the tread of the tire so the tire inflates evenly , cause the womp womp is caused from the tube blowing up too fast and not seating properly. Make sure you make it super slippery and lubed up , you can even use Spray Silicone in an aerasol can like a spray paint can and spray the tire really good . .... Good Luck bro !
@@chesteryao so the rear dropout size in the back is 150mm. You can fit an Onyx motor in the back. So the front rim is 16.5 x 1.85 inch and the rear motor is a 17 x 3 inch motor but both fit on a 90/80-16 tire.
I had bought mine second hand from my friend but they sell them at this location: www.speedwayridersnyc.com/shop/kotto-750l-electric-bike/?srsltid=AfmBOopmijtGNu8vsoxaObvHmD96eoc4PTjGrpef0mFchjlpZkFKhTtM Also, they sell them over at Falcon PEV but shipping would take a while.
In the beginning it's a bit more research involved but overall gets easier the more you do. I try to go with budget frames as they save a lot in the beginning. Definitely take your time especially with your first build to go over the details and don't feel discouraged if things don't work at the start (it's all part of the experience).
@JB360_NYC thank I know those big batteries cost a good couple grand I feel only youtubers can who make a good amount of money from yt can afford to buy batteries like that
Can't wait to see the finish build. I am planning to do the same to my Coswheel y16
That's a great frame to upgrade! So much room in that center portion for a big battery.
I found your channel recently, and loving the content. Cheers mate.
@@stevenspiegel4433 thanks dude!

We need bikes like these RTR these companies are slipping
I been wanting to build my kotto. What is the wheel dropout size? And are those 17x3 wheels smaller than the 18x3 stock wheels?

@@JB360_NYC Nice thank you, I don't think anyone has modded 72v kotto I plan to do the same but keeping the stock wheel size.
I've been looking for a Kotto. Where did you get yours and do you know if anyone else is importing any ?

Can it be complicated as a beginner to start building ebikes? I know it requires time and money ofc
