@@user-it3el4qf1z max speed is 28mph or 45km/h down hill. 22-24mph on flat until battery gets below 90%, then it maintains closer to 22mph for another 50-60% I’d guesstimate. A larger Ah capacity battery would extend duration of top speed and too would a 52V battery. The controller has no problem with 52V battery. I believe the capacitors are rated at 60V. I have used my Bicycle Motor Works Pocket Rocket 52V Molicel with the controller. That said, the 52V needs to be mounted externally because of the dimensions. I’d also like to mention that the 400W motor works pretty hard and can get hot under a lot of load. So if you weigh a lot (200lbs) or full throttle up a long hill, these type of load conditions exact a toll. The motor is pretty good for RPM, but just keep in mind that it’s running at its maximum ability.

Meaning, the only option to make the bike go faster is to Buy a new controller and replace the OEM/ Jetson pro one. Which I did and Yes the bike goes faster now. But the thing though is it’s highly suggest to buy a new battery that’s 48v
Yes! The wires might be slightly different but you can definitely install an aftermarket controller to get more speed out of that bike too! Might drain the battery faster FYI
I have a jeson atlas and I found a wheel that's 72v 3500watts and it comes with the controller and new screen for around 325$US 😂 I'm waiting to hurt my on it when I get it. The website says the wheel is clocked at 120kms a hour😂 I think it's probably gonna be like 90 to 100 kms a hour but still it's insane to go that fast on a bake
Just hols breaks for ten seconds and while holding turn power on. Wait another 10 second. Then power off. Now speed limit has removed. You will go faster with more torque.
So if I get the new controller along with the new battery upgrade you suggested I won’t need the arduino hack? And will the controller work without the bigger battery? I’ll get one eventually but want to start with the controller so I can keep track of my miles and record stat changes as I add on more mods.
Yeah, the new controller would work with the factory battery. It's a great upgrade because you get the screen, and unlimited top speed, so there's no need to get the arduino. Then once you get a new battery, just change the controller settings to match it and you'll be good to go! hope that makes sense

Hi, just trying to extend the range of my Bolt with an extra battery in parallel attached to the back rack. Folks are telling me they have to be the exact same voltage or one will damage the other one. I want to keep the existing battery. Is there an exact replacement available or other options here. Thanks.
Yeah! So you can use any size 36v battery, since that's the same voltage as the factory one. You'll want to use a "dual discharge balancer" which plugs into both batteries and uses a little energy from both combined to power your Jetson. This way, they should always be balanced, and when you're done riding, both batteries will need to be separately charged. There's a couple videos on installing a dual battery setup on ebikes here on RUclips. Hope that helps!
@@ChrisBuissonDIY OK thanks for the advice. I saw one on amazon for $33. Its says the bike will drain one battery first then use the 2nd battery next. I thought it would put the two in parallel and treat it like one battery instead of two separate batteries.
Hello I recently wanted to mod by bolt pro but I'm new to this hobby I want my bike to go at 20mph I recently bought a 48v 10h battery and a elgoo r3 to unlock the speed. Do I need anything also before doing this mod also any tips out there?
So... If I got this straight, I can increase my speed just by upgrading to a 48V battery..? I have a Jetson Bolt (not Pro), no pedals, just foot pegs. It only goes 11 MPH on a flat level surface, likely due to my size and the accessories I've added to the bike. I'd Love to go faster, even up to 15 MPH. Can I just upgrade to a 48V battery to get the increased speed.?
On the Bolt (or Bolt Up model) those use a more simple controller, and it cannot be modified to go faster than 11mph. I'd recommend getting a new controller and battery (like the one in the description), and that will allow you to go as fast as a modified Bolt Pro, since they have the same motor. Wiring it up is exactly the same, and I have a separate video for that on this channel. Hope that makes sense. Good luck!
You can upgrade the battery on the stock controller but the speed limiter will still be present, so you'd need to arduino hack it or get the controller upgrade. I prefer the controller upgrade because of the screen and added features.
They'll work too! I can't say about the battery fitment, but the same controller should work fine, but you may have different color wires for the motor hall sensors, or throttle, so it will take some troubleshooting if it doesn't work perfect the first time.
And does the brand matter on the controller. I can’t find dioche brand on Amazon. I see what looks exactly the same as your recommendation but out of like 6 different named brands.
They don't come with the bluetooth module anymore, that was an older bike I believe. Not sure if you can still find the Jetson app on the app store, I think they disabled the ability to increase speed with your phone.

Did the new battery with the new 13amp controller give you more torch ? I have the same battery and planning on doing this with the same controller. Also would the 15 or 16amp controller (like the from JB) suck up more of the battery ?
Yes, it has more torque/acceleration with the new 48volt battery! The 16amp controller doesn't make a huge difference on battery life at all, it might flow more amps while accelerating but only for brief periods.
Yes if you purchase it with a matching connector for your controller. I prefer to use XT60 connectors, so I soldered those on to both my controller and batteries. Makes it easy to take a battery from one bike and try it on another if you're building a lot of ebikes like me :)
I literally have like 50 bucks. Do you think it would be feasible to buy the arduino hack so I can do two bikes for the price of one. At least, for now.. till I get some cash.
Tried speed hack with ardurino board, everything seemed tt work and take and got the flashing light. However, top speed never changed. I think the newer ones don't like the hack. Another person commented as well the same thing.
If your like me over 220lbs this mod is useless and only good for top speed or after u get going at the end. Due to weight it will whine and accelerate same until u get up to speed. Only way to do it right is if you go with a 750w to 1000w motor hub and a 48v to 52v plus anything bigger is pointless unless already on a bigger bike. But some people still do it and weight ranging 120 to 185lbs has seen up to 30 mph with a 500w motor upgrade without pedaling. I have done this mod and the fastest I have seen is 17mph due to my weight, but with a 48v battery top speed I have seen max of 22mph so for people who is say 120-185lbs u could possibly see up to 25mph on flat ground with 100% full charge on 48v. But what will give it away is the acceleration for light weight person u will take off 2 to 3 mph faster after 3 to 5 secs vs a 200+lbs person....I have 4 of these bikes and have tried a lot of different mods to 2 of them. Currently I see no more than 14 mph because I now tow a trailer with my toddler which carries 75lbs in total and I have soften the tires for more traction.
More volts, more speed! You can find controllers for up to 72v, and either a 72v battery or a step-up DC converter. But at that point I think it's worth getting a bigger bike if you want to go faster than 25mph, just my opinion 😉 hope that helps!
I'd beware of using smaller batteries to run our ebikes, only because they are usually not rated to put out the amount of power we need, and can overheat the battery more easily. Just a tip but good luck!
@@ChrisBuissonDIY My Ego Lawnmower 56v 5 ah battery actually bigger than stock so its14s2p should be able to push the stock 13 amp controller no problem. more worried about the stock motor/controller overheating, but you had no issue with 48v so I feel better about it.
Don’t buy this I bought it from the website and one week later it broke down I didn’t do anything to it so then I bought a razor mx350 it’s been a year now since I had the razor
I've been riding this bike for about a month ruclips.net/user/postUgkxwC0IIeIomGQVeBWg-kKJaToZkLEFIA2W and a half now and I think it's fantastic. It helps me get to work on time every day since I'm able to fit it inside of public transportation rush hour. The price is great too, people are always shocked when they ask me how much I paid for the fold up and I tell them "200". It's easy to fold and installation when it ships is insanely easy. All you have to install when the bike arrives is one foot pedal, everything else is done for you. I do recommend you carry some sort of wrench to tighten any loose screws on the handle bar and seat whenever they get a little bit loose. Other than that I think it's a fantastic bike. Easily fits in the home, can fit inside a car trunk and can even fit in subway rush hour.
I don't use Facebook all that much, but you can try asking your question in the Jetson Bolt group! There's lots of answers already there, and people with more knowledge than me!

Tried speed hack with ardurino board, everything seemed tt work and take and got the flashing light. However, top speed never changed. I think the newer ones don't like the hack. Another person commented as well the same thing.
same for me, 14mph tops
Didn't work for me as well. I tried several times, no luck..still goes 15mph
@@technofiend92 i get it now. the stock battery is what's holding back the speed, you get significant speed increase if you swap out the battery
What year is yours?
My dad said if I wanted to make it faster was to..........
LOSE SOME WEIGHT!!!!! 😮
If your like me over 220lbs this mod is useless and only good for top speed or after u get going at the end. Due to weight it will whine and accelerate same until u get up to speed. Only way to do it right is if you go with a 750w to 1000w motor hub and a 48v to 52v plus anything bigger is pointless unless already on a bigger bike. But some people still do it and weight ranging 120 to 185lbs has seen up to 30 mph with a 500w motor upgrade without pedaling.
I have done this mod and the fastest I have seen is 17mph due to my weight, but with a 48v battery top speed I have seen max of 22mph so for people who is say 120-185lbs u could possibly see up to 25mph on flat ground with 100% full charge on 48v. But what will give it away is the acceleration for light weight person u will take off 2 to 3 mph faster after 3 to 5 secs vs a 200+lbs person....I have 4 of these bikes and have tried a lot of different mods to 2 of them.
Currently I see no more than 14 mph because I now tow a trailer with my toddler which carries 75lbs in total and I have soften the tires for more traction.
You used painters tape instead of electrical tape? 😂
That was for mocking up the wires for testing purposes, I have a full wiring video on my channel if you want to see how I did it!
What options exist for > 25 mph?
More volts, more speed! You can find controllers for up to 72v, and either a 72v battery or a step-up DC converter. But at that point I think it's worth getting a bigger bike if you want to go faster than 25mph, just my opinion 😉 hope that helps!
Throw it off a cliff 🤣!
Can u email . The company's address that sells that e bike battery u have on ur bike.?? Thanx A.D
@@alanduncan9605 check out the link to my battery in the description of the video!
As soon as my kid tires of this in stock form I plan on wiring up an adapter to use my EGO batteries, probably clamped to stem.
I'd beware of using smaller batteries to run our ebikes, only because they are usually not rated to put out the amount of power we need, and can overheat the battery more easily. Just a tip but good luck!
@@ChrisBuissonDIY My Ego Lawnmower 56v 5 ah battery actually bigger than stock so its14s2p should be able to push the stock 13 amp controller no problem. more worried about the stock motor/controller overheating, but you had no issue with 48v so I feel better about it.
can you please fix my ebike? I can pay!

Don’t buy this I bought it from the website and one week later it broke down I didn’t do anything to it so then I bought a razor mx350 it’s been a year now since I had the razor
😂
I have go 17 MPH stock on a flat street I think it is because I am small.
PS: Less than 115 pounds.
why does your voice keeps going up at the end of most sentences?

I've been riding this bike for about a month ruclips.net/user/postUgkxwC0IIeIomGQVeBWg-kKJaToZkLEFIA2W and a half now and I think it's fantastic. It helps me get to work on time every day since I'm able to fit it inside of public transportation rush hour. The price is great too, people are always shocked when they ask me how much I paid for the fold up and I tell them "200". It's easy to fold and installation when it ships is insanely easy. All you have to install when the bike arrives is one foot pedal, everything else is done for you. I do recommend you carry some sort of wrench to tighten any loose screws on the handle bar and seat whenever they get a little bit loose. Other than that I think it's a fantastic bike. Easily fits in the home, can fit inside a car trunk and can even fit in subway rush hour.
Is this controller 48V 1000W ?
I think more like 350-500w. Too many watts on the stock motor and it might melt and be ruined.
Are you on facebook. Got a few questions
I don't use Facebook all that much, but you can try asking your question in the Jetson Bolt group! There's lots of answers already there, and people with more knowledge than me!
@@ChrisBuissonDIY can I use a bigger battery with the motor and controller of the jetson bolt
@@TravisLeisure Yeah of course! the bigger battery I used is linked in the description.
