Review on 26" 48V 1000W Electric Bike Conversion Kit With Intelligent Controller And PAS System - Voilamart by Kevin Baker

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Works great but not advertised properly! Buy a Bafang kit!

This took a bit longer then expected to install, not the hubs fault really that I installed it on a older mountain bike. It is very fast I got it up to 37 MPH with my powerful battery. I am not sure if its been changed since I purchased this bike but the pedal assistance cannot be set up properly with this model. It works but with just a little bit of force it goes as fast as the battery will let it go, its actually kind of dangerous! I wanted a throttle and I figured as stated the pedal assistance would be there as it was included in the box. This should be changed from E bike conversion kit to moped kit, that is basically what this turned by bike into. I bought this version because I liked the throttle but I wanted the pedal assistance for the exercise. Additionally one of the wired safety brakes they sent was not functional. I plan on selling my now "Moped" and buying a Bafang kit for my next build.

Pros
  • Done this many times and am always happy with the results.
Cons
  • The high-powered motor and battery may be illegal in certain areas, making it difficult to ride legally in certain neighborhoods or facilities
