This will provide a lot more torque and the bike would be able to climb steeper inclines. For off road riding I think you might be better off with a 15 MPH top speed gear ratio. Any steeper of an incline and the motor would run too slowly and risk overheating. At 22 MPH gearing if the bike and rider weighs 300 pounds it should be able to go up a 10 degree incline at around 6 MPH. If it was geared for a 22 MPH top speed it would have a moderate amount of torque but not a lot. I ran some calculations and found that with a 600 Watt motor the top speed on flat ground is limited to around 22 miles per hour. By clicking the links and shopping at partner sites, you do not only get the materials you need but also are supporting our website.As the bike travels at faster speeds the wind resistance exponentially increases so the power that is requires goes up very quickly.

If this project has whetted your whistle for custom e-bikes, why not consider upping the ante and building one from scratch! Now you can get out there and take it for a spin.

Feel free to add more flourishes to the design, and customize it as much as you want. You will also want to add a rear driving light too to ensure others can see you in the dark if you want to drive your bike at night. These will act as headlights for dusk to dawn bike riding. Mount them to the frame of the bike as needed. With that complete, some extra details can then be added like shred lights or other LED lights for e-bikes. To connect them, you will need to make a custom 6-pin connector that will, in turn, connect to the wiring of the throttles.

These throttles will be connected up to the electrical stability control (ESC). First, grab your throttles, one will be used for the motor, the other for the brakes. With the main propulsion system complete, we can now move on to the electronics. Secure all parts as needed before moving on. Drill the holes, and mount the motor assembly to the frame, as needed using bolts, nuts, and washers.

Move the motor assembly until the chain is tight, and then mark out where the mounting screws will need to be on the bike frame. Then add the motor axle sprocket, and connect the drive chain between the motor and the rear-drive wheel's sprocket.

position the motor (and bracket) into place on the body of the bike. Once the primer is dry, you can then apply the surface paint - in this case blue.

Depending on the final look of your particular bike, choose an appropriate primer. With all your parts out of the box, the next step is to prime the frame. You could, of course, attempt to build the entire thing from scratch, but why reinvent the wheel if one is already going? This particular bike comes courtesy of Azusa Parts (link above). The first step is to unpack and begin constructing your mini bike's frame.
