1500 watt motor with a 52 volt 20 amp hour battery awesome

These motors are awesome all the power you need and a way to get it down to 750 watts if you need to to be in compliance That's my feedback.

Pros
  • In-line with sustainable living practices
Cons
  • The motor can create a lot of heat, which can be uncomfortable or even dangerous for riders

Good motor, light controller, tire did not last 100 miles.

My bike is heavy and the tire failed at 90 miles, the controller lasted about 1,000 miles. The motor has been strong.Currently shopping for a new controller.It is 20 miles to work. The power is great but uses up my 26 amp/hr battery if I get carried away with the speed.The bike is 98.5 lbs, with gear and me must be close to 375-400 lbs. The unit was rated for 350lbs if my memory is correct.The controller failed on flat ground in heavy rain.Is a good starter kit. But if you need a heavy duty…

Pros
  • User-friendly operation
Cons
  • The battery pack can be hard to access, making it difficult to charge or replace

Quick and powerful: my feedback

Go go speed racer. Works perfect. Wish it had built in speedo and odometer. Paired it with a battery from upp battery. A couple of odds and ends to make it look pretty function right for my application. Probably takes about 1.5-2 hours to install and you'll get hours of play time (err I mean adult commuting enjoyment)

Pros
  • Suitable for a range of road bikes
Cons
  • The kit adds weight to the rear of the bike, which can throw off the balance and stability

Ebike motor 1500w for my opinion

You could add this simple kit to a mountain bike or cruiser and enjoy a fair amount of power and speed. I weigh 225 and this kit propels me on flat ground 32 mph+ with single blue wire disconnected, running at 52v.

Pros
  • Fun and exciting addition to cycling experience
Cons
  • The kit can be noisy, which may bother other people around the rider

Don’t put too much weight up front.

If you choose to buy the front tire, place your battery closer to the seat as opposed to being closest to the handlebars. The wheel is heavy the Battery is heavy… recipe for disaster, it will Catapult you over

Pros
  • Wheels & Accessories
Cons
  • The controller unit is bulky and takes up too much space, adding extra weight to the bike

Brand New, Fast and Fun!

Excellent Wheel and Motor. The hardest part of installation was actually very simple. The wheel requires 2 washers on the hub before mounting the wheel hub motor onto the frame. Once I did that, piece of cake. If you don’t do that step first the wheel will not fit on correctly just make sure you install the washers first before mounting the wheel and motor. Very happy with the purchase all items came in box brand new excellent working condition. The bikes top speed is around 35 to 40 mph I’ve…

Pros
  • Recent advancements in electric bike technology
Cons
  • The kit is not very user-friendly, with a steep learning curve and no intuitive features

Not so easy installation

Our daughter bought the kit to convert her bike and we ended up having to take it to a bike specialist to put it on! The whole thing has to be custom fitted, and we should’ve just returned it instead of going through all of this!

Pros
  • Limits carbon footprint
Cons
  • The kit may not be compatible with all types of brakes, leading to safety concerns

Pros
  • Pedal Assistance System (PAS): enjoy cycling while driving electric bike with 551LB / 250KG Max Load Capacity.
Cons
  • The kit is not very user-friendly, with confusing instructions and settings

Poor workmanship best in my review

This company does not work with you after I had 3 broken wheels. The kit can be difficult to install, requiring specialized tools and knowledge.

Pros
  • Reduces environmental impact of transportation
Cons
  • The kit can be difficult to install, requiring specialized tools and knowledge

Great product on my review.

This is my 3rd E-bike Build and the best one so far. I've had a 500 watt, a 1000 watt and now this 1500 watt.This so much more fast and powerful then the others. I am completely satisfied with this purchase.

Pros
  • Personal use it's my second one and I plan on buying another to keep as a spare
Cons
  • The large battery pack is unsightly and can weigh down the bike, making it difficult to maneuver

Excellent Product - But BEWARE.

*** Updated Review as promised ***Fitting to a Mongoose bike from Walmart.I've spent about a week now fitting this kit to my bike. When I first got the kit, I went straight to work. Everything takes quite a bit of time when you don't really know what you're doing. The instruction manual basically shows a picture of what it's going to tell you to do, and then it tells you "to do it." So for the manual I would give it 0 stars.I got the new tire and tube put on, pumped it up, threw the gear…

Pros
  • Saves time commuting
Cons
  • The battery pack can add a lot of weight to the bike, making it harder to pedal without the motor
