Seems very weak on my review.

I put this on a 3 wheeled bike(2 wheels in front and one in back) and I didn't attach the PAS(pedal assist system). I have this battery (Orihat E-Bike Lithium Ion Battery with USB Port Electric Bike Battery Conversion Kit (36V12A) powering it.It is very, very weak at best. Even without me on the bike, when I twist the throttle, it does start to go but, I can hold the bike back with the gentlest pressure. Is it only designed for pedal assist? Even if it IS only designed for pedal assist, I rode…

Pros
  • The controller box is bad
Cons
  • Dosen't work whit my bike i cant return waste over $200 font know what to do

This motor exceeded my expectations. There are some big caveats in my recommendation here. This motor is smooth and quiet and can get you over the hills in great form with very little help from the rider. I mounted this kit on a homemade crank forward bike I built a while back and am using a 36v battery made up of 3 12a.h. S.l.a. Batteries. The whole bike weighs about 90 lbs but it doesn’t peddle too bad even without the motor running. I’ve only hooked up the twist grip throttle.no p.a.s. it…

Pros
  • The controller box is bad
Cons
  • Dosen't work whit my bike i cant return waste over $200 font know what to do

Has very poor instructions although it's a pretty straight forward install. The PAS system is jerky and dangerous in stop and go traffic, had to disconnect and use twist throttle, seems to work fine on open road. Requires a 48 mm valve steam but comes with a tube that has a standard steam. On positive side seems to have plenty of power and speed, although I do ride on flat land, not sure how it would perform on hills.

A well priced 500w rear e-bike kit. I'd recommend a "triangle" bike bag to hide the wires, controller, and battery. It might be smart for them to provide instructions via PDF to allow for folks to zoom in a bit but its a pretty simple install after watching a few youtube videos on other e-bike kit installs. I didn't set it up for pedal assist (skipped the pedal sensor/ hall effect sensor as I couldn't get my crank arm removed) and I enjoyed the twist throttle. As the Trek "donor" bike had…

Pros
  • It works great so far but it's a pain to put together on certain bikes
Cons
  • The installation process can be complicated for those who are not mechanically inclined

Controller died within days of using it

I bought this upgrade kit for my daughter ebike. She had a 300W brushless motor and I decided to increase power since we live in an area where hills are pretty steep to get to her school. It was an easy upgrade. She rode the bike to school 3 times and the controller burned out. The connectors, which are insulated, were fried. Voilamart does not sell the controller by itself. I bought another Chinese-manufactured controller and I could not get it to work. Will probably not purchase another…

No problems yet (big problems, at least)

I've had this install for about two months and so far it has been great! When the battery is fully, it can go 25-27 MPH with my 36V 10AH battery. There are two speed modes, at least if you don't connect the pedaling sensor like me. The fast mode is really quick, but it drains the battery pretty quickly. I haven't really distance tested at all, but the fast mode seems good for 15-17 miles at full throttle. The slow mode on the other hand, is so efficient that it's gotten me halfway across the…

Do not buy! Ruined several brushless controllers!

Do not buy! I bought this in January to transform my bike to an ebike to go to work and back everyday. 2 weeks later, the controller burned out! No biggie so I just replaced it. Rode it with the new controller, it burned out within a month! Had to replace it again, tried it again and within another month, the SAME thing happened again! Had to replace 2 more times yet and within another month, BOTH burned out within a month! I found out the motor was burning out controllers 5 frickin times and…

great value powerful kit well built

its a square wave controller which makes the motor much noisier than a sine wave controller. great value and lots of power. the controller is more like a 750 watt so youll need a battery pack that can output at 20 amps if you're going to use it without the speed limiter. i had to get a bigger battery because this controller/motor is very power hungry and kept tripping the battery bms by drawing so many amps when accelerating at full throttle. strong rim and well built but didn't come with a rim

Came damaged, but what do you expect?

Whell came damaged in multiple areas, packaging was crap and the packing foam inside was all destroyed, instructions were almost completely useless, but what do you expect from a budget noname Chinese brand, price was great and it will work and that's what it comes down to it the end of the day. Would probably invest a bit more to get a quality respected brand because this probably won't last too long.

Terrible quality - my new review

Replaced my previous motor which had a better pedal assist system, this one just had one speed for it so if you are pedaling it goes super fast so you are just spinning the pedals and not actually pedaling. The battery monitoring system absolutely is terrible, it will say full one minute then one bar then full then empty. I think the one I received can't be working properly. You do not know when you are actually running out until you do. Not happy with the purchase.Update- my husband was able…

Great system, on a normal bike it should scream

Reviewing asked me to rate "sheerness" and "thickness".uhh.i gave those 4 dtars?This pic is my trike "before". This was already a 65lb machine at that time. Since then it has gained a rear fender assembly that is all steel and can support a passenger easily, fold out baskets, headlights/mirrors/turn signals, the ubiquitous orange flag on a 5' pole, and.the motor assembly. Now it weighs in at a flat 100lbs.This is my first electric motor on a bike. So after the first rides I thought "oh crap, I…

Pros
  • it works
Cons
  • The noise level of the motor may be disruptive to other cyclists or pedestrians

Good value. No problems so fare.

Had to make some mods to fit my bike, how ever, once dine it works great. I have yet used the battery all the way. I have ridden 36 miles on a trail No problems at all. Good value.

For the price, it's great.

I've put over 1,000mi on this kit now. I taped a little piece of clear plastic over the handlebar display and duct taped the controller to the frame and wrapped it in tape to keep it dry. I do bike deliveries in All weather and it's performed without a single problem. There are certainly better kits out there, but they cost more. For the money, this one is great. I would recommend getting a geared rear hub motor. Direct drive hubs, as in this kit, make pedaling difficult when not using the…

Pros
  • Wheels & Accessories
Cons
  • The electronics in the kit may be prone to malfunction or failure over time

Axle is short and fat. Wont fit some bikes.

Did not fit my bike. The axle was to short and to big around to go in my rear drop out. These two dimensions are critical and should have been shown in the product fescription

Pros
  • Dual Mode Controller: Motor works under Hall effect and non-Hall effect, extend life for electric bike; Brake Levers cut off the power supply to the motor safely; Twist throttle has battery level display
Cons
  • The kit may not be legal in all areas, depending on local laws and regulations regarding electric bicycles

Dependable and plenty quick and safe as rear wheel drive.

Excellent ! Not my first e bike kit. Original was front wheel drive. Makes front end very heavy and can be sloppy in the corners. Install went very well. Just take your time and think it through ! Very smooth and strong. Just give it a kick with the pedals if you wish. I can cruise at 20 + for better than 15 miles ! That’s moving on a bicycle ! 2.2 tires help and softens up the ride at speed. It’s my daily commuter and it works very well. I only use the twist grip. Very controllable and the lit

Pros
  • Me encanto
Cons
  • The motor is not waterproof, making it vulnerable to damage in wet weather conditions
