I’m running 1500w motor with a 1200w controller and 48v battery. Achieving 38mph with ease. Had to upgrade the brakes as it’s real sketchy at those speeds. Front suspension forks helped loads with stability and handling.
I couldnt find a suspension fork that was't a rebranded childs bike fork that destroyed the geometry and made it unsafe at any speed. All the really fast Jetson, DYU's for example Julius's 100kph DYU and derivatives seem to use the stock rigid forks. EVen the stock handlebar position seems too high, too narrow and way to close to get a good stance for speed. Which forks did you use?
This was definitely just to test the limits, so we don't expect it to last long being pushed at 40mph :). Agreed, I'm sure there are many other builds that exceed 40mph, but usually see speed photos posted from the controller display and not gps measurement.
40mph crew 🤚 but I’m on 72v but motor is only 60v motor if I get a high speed motor I can get more speed but 40 is enough for me no more then that running upp 72v 19.5ah
Brother you are a inspiration. I currently modified my Jetson Axle with a 3000 watt motor but i have to add some weight on the front because the motor is so powerful even the slightest throttle twist will cause aggressive wheelies. I was so disappointed because now i am stuck with my Jetson Axle because Costco started selling the Jetson Haze. Thats such a beautiful design. And i really wish I saw this one first
Thanks for watching our videos! The Jetson Axle is a solid platform, but it sounds like you have quite a powerful setup. We can imagine that much torque would cause some wheelie action! Adding weight to the front is a smart move for better balance. As for the Jetson Haze, it does have a sleek design. If only you'd seen it earlier! Don't worry though, you can still have a blast with your Axle. We hope to offer parts for the Haze soon, so stay tuned for updates! Thanks for sharing your story with us. If you have any other questions or need advice on modifications, feel free to ask!
@@Blacklisted_Garage Yes the Jetson Bolt and Axle both share the same architecture. The black frame is indeed steel; but I just love the design of the Haze. It is the best looking model out of all the other Jetson bikes. In my opinion, the Haze has that Cannondale-like aerodynamic look to it.
Thanks for your interest! However, I'm sorry to say that we've decided not to offer a motor upgrade for the Jetson Bolt Pro at the moment. After careful consideration, we found that the available motor options didn't meet our quality standards. We wouldn't want to offer a part that we don't believe will provide a long, trouble-free experience.
We pushed the setup to its limits to test our 48 volt battery and FAFO controller capabilities. Going 40 mph was a bit scary, and we don't plan to repeat it without full motorcycle riding gear and a helmet for safety. Our comfort zone is at speeds of 30 mph and below.
Thank you for your comment and your interest in our setup! We're glad you like the setup. However, it's important to note that the combination of our battery and the 3000W motor was primarily used to showcase the speed capabilities of our battery and controller. Our battery was originally spec'd for the stock motor and controller, but we wanted to demonstrate that it could push even faster speeds. In reality, when powering the stock motor and controller, the battery operates at a very low duty cycle, meaning it doesn't work as hard as it did in the demonstration. We've only run about 20 miles through this setup so far, and we haven't yet run through a full battery cycle. Based on the specifications of our battery (48V and 20A continuous output), if we were to run the battery at its full potential, it would likely only last about 30 minutes.
There are several variables that will determine the range you'll get with the 48v battery and controller setup. Our direct plug and play 48v battery has a 9.9Ah capacity. To estimate the range accurately, you'll need to consider the wattage of the motor you plan to use, as well as the average speed you intend to ride at. These factors will play a significant role in determining the range you can expect.
Props for hitting 40mph on a Bolt Pro. If you had the stock motor, it will be closer to 25 mph. The only reliable method for figuring out your top speed is to use a GPS. Now, all you need to do is to find an Engwe T14 and swap everything from your Bolt...its out dated and T14 has full suspension, foldable, and you won't look like a dork.
Thanks for checking out the video. We actually have another video where we recorded a top speed of 26mph with the stock motor on the Bolt Pro. All our speed tests are done using GPS via smartphone on the same road for consistency. We'll keep the Engwe T14 in mind for future comparisons. Appreciate your input!
We operate our other ebikes on 52 volts and love it!, but unfortunately, opting for 52V on the Bolt Pro would result in a significantly lower Ah. Our objective is to maintain the battery pack within the stock housing without necessitating extensive modifications.
Yup! Check out our other video where we run the FAFO controller with our 48v battery, we were able to reach 26mph on the stock motor. ua-cam.com/video/MHRrhSXvG9A/v-deo.html
Both the folding lock and handlebar lock are features that many standard bikes lack. It's crucial to pay extra attention to these, especially when riding at higher speeds!
We only borrowed the hub motor for testing purposes, and we haven't used it extensively to provide recommendations. Unfortunately, we don't have a specific link for this hub motor. If you're looking for reliable hub motors, we suggest checking with the jetson bolt facebook group.

That's insane. Even at +30 mph, it feels sketchy. Fantastic work, the only bolt pro I've seen that can achieve +40 mph with a GPS.

@@milestone_achiever4634 i have an axle trying to upgrade it how did you do it 😭
@@milestone_achiever4634where did you fit the motor
Holy Sleeper!🙌👏
I guess you can call it the Bolt Pro Hellcat
Waiting for the plug and play hub motor. So will tge battery, controller, and motor come as a kit? take my money!

Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
Incredible! Admittedly, I’d be terrified to go 40 on that thing though 😆

How many miles could you get with your battery and the 3000W motor? Love the set up!

What’s the range with the 48v battery and the controller
There are several variables that will determine the range you'll get with the 48v battery and controller setup. Our direct plug and play 48v battery has a 9.9Ah capacity. To estimate the range accurately, you'll need to consider the wattage of the motor you plan to use, as well as the average speed you intend to ride at. These factors will play a significant role in determining the range you can expect.
thats awesome! with that speed maybe suspension upgrades are needed?
Oh definitely! We feel that anything over 18mph on the Bolt Pro calls for some suspension and bigger tires.

T14 looks pretty dorky..moreso than a common jetson
52volt is nice . We are running 2000w and 52volt on 40amp controller

Can i install the controler and battery with the stock hub motor?
Yup! Check out our other video where we run the FAFO controller with our 48v battery, we were able to reach 26mph on the stock motor.

Its no longer an e bike at that speed youre as fast as a moped
We might be giving mopeds a run for their money
@@Blacklisted_Garagedamn right lol
@@Blacklisted_Garageyou're faster than the average e scooter that's for sure
The only I’m afraid of is that handle bar lock could collapse or lossen lol
