- Today we put a 6000w 72v electric motor on a tiny mini bike and ripped it up the street to see how fast it can go. spoiler alert, its fast!! this is the electric motor I bought for the electric pit bike conversion project but before I use it for that project I first need to see what it can do in this tiny mini bike frame.

I can relate to the 10yr old laughter while going 50mph on a death sled 😂 Definitely brings out the kid in us with projects like this. Great videos 👍🏼
On my electric bike the best addition was regen/e-brake. Even though it regenerates about 10% which is not much, but it saves me a lot of money I would spend on brake pads.
Is it activated when you let off the throttle?
@@tonyfoxxbuilds1920 No. By default it is an analog input to the controller (3 wires like a potentiometer) so, when you pull the brake lever it gradually increases the ebrake power, but I just added a push button for my left thumb and it brakes on max when I press the button.
It depends on your motor and your controller settings
You're waiting for it so: I found that totally electrifying.I was shocked at how fast it was.It'll be all the buzz at the meets.Now you have us all tingling with anticipation of the pit-bike builds.
can't wait to see the electric bike with transmission
Holy crap that thing looks fast. Imagine that with full fairings and a lay on the tank position and tall gearing, you'd be ready for a Bonneville Salt Flats Run. 👍👍🏍
i built an E bike this year... im able to get to 45mph with a 750w motor from bafang... they are absolutely scary as hell hah. i couldn't imagine having a 6000w motor
6000 watts is the equivalent of 8hp on that tiny bike.
You're nuts Chris lol. The Pit bike will definitely be safer. Looking forward to more!
where did you get the motor and controller from?
@@bryanannas yeah.. all i can find is 3000w
@@supermantom2456 That 3000w can easily handle 6000w just add some heatsinks. You just need an 6000w rated controller.
"The brakes don't work anymore" hits it again
Looks fun, Chris. I'm looking forward to seeing the pit bike run. To reverse the motor you can swap any two of the motor wires. doesn't matter which color wires.
its not an rc bro no you cant exactly what he did was correct fyi
Don't forget that this is a sensored brushless motor. Which means that you also have to switch the corresponding Sensor wires as well or there is a possibility of damaging the Controller and or motor.
@@backwater1536 These motors ARE exactly like brushless RC motors. Just larger.
@@bradley3549 He's backwater...don't start with educated logic. he be trollin'
Not going to lie. I was a little bummed it wasn't the second part of the "A Different Way to Build An Electric Dirt Bike"
But... That was pretty cool seeing the potential of that new motor.
Adding gearing to that is going to be an awesome little build.
Good tests!
No helmet, no brakes. Good job!
Helmets are an individual decision...brakes are for quitters...
I also have that face of “joy” when I go full throttle with my electric go kart. That’s why I went electric, that feeling of acceleration is priceless. Looking forward to the electric pit bike build! Cheers!
Love to see you have another go at building a gearbox, this motor would do well with a two speed.
If that motor can do that speed with those tiny wheels it's gonna do a fair speed on the pit bike, this has just got me even more hyped for the electric pitbike build 😃👍
Your Smile. That is what i am searching for. Building a Bike this summer, er soon as i get the funds.
I watch the builds for years now just to hear your maniacal laugh when it turns out to be a monster. No different here, only this time it was one episode to hear it. Be careful, you're spoiling me, man. - aerospace engineer, retired
Bloody hell that looked fast.
You need to put a couple air ducks on the battery box that directs air flow directly to the electric motor and that will help keep the cooling down
Ducts
Rain water ? . . .shorting out?
@@mkultra4542 yes I meant ductwork and I believe the motor is sealed 🤔😎
Pretty insane man, going to work out nicely on that pitbike!
this look so much fun. props to you fam
One of my favourite channels👍
can't wait to see the electric pit bike ripp 👍
Great job dude..looked like alot of fun
Ive ben talking about doin this for years and wen this combo came out il i had to try good to see it can be done cant wait to see what it does with a gear box
Wow that’s so fast.Good job.
Ur laugh makes it that thing even more awesome!
That system works great on that minibike.
Omg that thing is amazing!!! I’m so tempted to see this thing with a torque converter
Aww yea!!!! Sick build as always
Unreal doing that kind of speed on that type of bike running on wheelbarrow wheels 🤣😂
Really looking forward to seeing this motor on the other bike . Having gears as well will be awesome
For a little electric minibike that thing is insane pretty cool man great video great build👍🏼🤩💪🏼
Love your slip on brake pads. 😆
That is insane it looks like a heap of fun!
That Lathe is awesome man
Ur happy laugh is awsome!!!😆
Your skills are insane!! Welding a sprocket man! Awesome build I love this channel!
I love your videos and learn alot each time I watch one. I used to race go karts in the '80s and we used a cogged belt drive. It's similar to today's timing belts on engines. They are so smooth and quiet, you should look into trying that. It would be better for on road vehicles though. Dirt and rocks would kill it.
That looks effing terrifying lol awesome upgrade.
always remember for wheelies - ATLEAST 1 FINGER ON THE BRAKES AT ALL TIMES!
it helps lol
Crucially- the rear brake. If you only have rear brakes, cool. But if you have a front brake and grab that, it won’t help much and you have a high likelihood of crashing or flipping if it does come down.
Awesome video Chris!!! Hope to see you at Pate's Swap meet!!! Would love to meet you someday!
Wow that’s awesome and fast 53 mph with the new motor that bike isn’t made for that kind of speed ! Thanks for letting me ride with you !! The need for speed
Get one of those Solar panel chargers they use for fishing boats. Make a rear fender and mount it on top, would be nice to get a free charge on sunny days, thing is awesome!
Crazy fast! 👍😁
Glad you grabbed a brain bucket! 50mph is fast on those little tires 😮 good job as always 👍🏻
Yip that is some good power for sure 😊👌 cool stuff allsome work 🌟🎉 the fastest little rascals ever😆👌🌟
wusss afraid of a little speed just yanking your chain Chris way to go Bud
I just got a 24 volt 2500 watt forklift motor! :D
I bet this would be even more faster with a gear box. Damn sweet project, made me smile. Nice video.
You should get 4 of those motors and put them on a small buggy.
A tip of the hat to you
@@shane_7even_ten569 Seconded.
For sure
Yep for sure, easy way to do 4wd… oh wait did i say easy, yeah nah, bloody complicated getting the controls all correct
But still traction control, 4w burnouts, 4wd donuts
Yep now i want one!!
@@westie4ageturbo.749 right lol not easy at all unless you have some experience
It looks awesome, maybe if you decide to buy another electric motor for that mini bike you should use the 48 tooth sprocket, waiting to see how the off road e-bike do on the trails!
That's so cool allsome work from cruzermans inventions 😁🎉🌟👍👌 cool
i feel like the speed wobble comes from the handle bars sitting forward like that, causes you to over correct without you really knowing. just my opinion. SUPER SICK BUILD THO this is the video I've been waiting for, for these mini bike frames.
If you end up putting this motor in this I highly suggest front brakes haha. Great build and definitely seems much better than your old 2k motor. Maybe a 4k on this would be a perfect balance
Drill air holes on battery box and do air vents from front to back to cool the electric motor
Great video Chris, I really love seeing electric projects from you, i know electric vehicles have some major drawback, but for for minibikes and go karts they are becoming a viable option. Maybe, one day we'll be able to buy wrecked Teslas for cheap to power our cross karts.
LOL, I know that shaking feeling. They say it is addictive.
53mph on little electric bike!! Thats crazy 😂😂
I can't wait to see how it'll goes with the transmission
Something my uncle taught me for every 1 tooth added in front is like 4 minus in the back or 4 in back minus 1 up front drive gear good way to figure things out I watch how far down the back as you do that the amp shoot up and the heat will double get a temp gun on the motor it will help you with the gearing it and the control can handle motors 225 top controler 200 less chance of frying it I like keeping temps around 180-190 tops and electronic last much longer applying this safety will also keep batt from blowing up watch those temps also save much money I got rc cars that are pushing 15 horse power with motors size soda can have little Pocket 4 wheeler with those little 49cc motor thinking of turning it into electric for my kids .keep up great work
Tu é o cara, inventa os melhores transportes lol.
Looks very stable at high speed.
Wow! We love what your doing with our equipment dude. This is what its all about!
Pro Tip: We have found that for a 10 inch wheel you can get maximum acceleration and still reach about 50mph with a gear ratio of about 5.7/1. This is about the limit of the motor but makes sure you aren't wasting an extra power to heat. 7.25 / 1 is best for torque on a 10 inch wheel with out being TOO short.
Keep it up brother!
Super cool. Don't know how comfortable I would be with that GoPro rod sticking out in front of me like that. Might get impaled.
If you want to learn easy, controllable wheelies, mount some pegs back by the rear axle. As for brakes, your speed controller is programmable. You should be able to program electric brakes into the controller.
Holy shit dude! Haha, keen to see it on the pit bike
This is the future of transportation.
Chris you need to duct airflow to the motor thru and beside the battery case via scoops to cool the motor. Heat stifles electrons from flowing efficiently. You need some motocross pads. Those mini bike tires aren’t safe at those speeds. Check motor, wheels, and tires with Infrared thermometer.
I was green with envy when Chris machined back the circular weld he'd used to insert the disc into the centre of the smaller rear sprocket. It was perfect in there, no encapsulated slag - nothing, just flawless steel on both sides. Will I ever be able to weld like that? Somehow I doubt it.
Looks like a fun scary ride. Lol.
You're so clever it's not funny. Always blown away by your ingenuity. 👍
Supper cool! I guess your angry neighbor can’t complain! 😜
Great video👍👍👍👍
Just for Giggles put a Briggs & Stratton Flathead head on top of that electrical box😂
dude that thing rips xD
Crazy Chris ascends to new heights of nutz
Sur Ronster would be proud :)
It was a sad little bike but now its freaking awesome
I would wear at very least something over your eyes before doing a speed run on any vehicle you create. yes a helmet is just as important for every ride, but eye protection when there are bugs, flies, and all sorts flying about. admittedly like 1 in a billion chance of hitting a bug, but you should see the mess they leave behind on my windscreen afterwards!! great video Chris.
I don't think that the brake pads are designed to work at those speeds, but it looks real fun.
It doesn't matter which wires you swap. The motors work through pulses of voltage so you can't swap the wrong wire. Any will work.
Nice cop.helmet Chris!
From my personal modifying motorcycle experience I recommend going up a tooth in front sprocket and then down two more in the rear and I bet you this badboy will do highway speeds with ease and changing the front and rear will ensure you don't loose any out of the hole torque as you might if you simply modified rear only....
omg that needs front brakes, is so fast hahaa very nice
Chris what the hick bro i was going to.say wheres your helmet but you did finally put one on!!!
The thing sounds like a quiet lambo
Greetings from Texas. Great test of the 6k motor! Can't wait to see it in the pit bike. Okay, time for the dad talk... Please wear a helmet! Always makes me nervous to see you ripping down the street unprotected.
RBW doing electric bikes¿! Now this is exactly what I wanted to see from him.... I bet if he put a little more time into electric (build a custom frame around the motor and battery) he'd be hooked, I only know because it happened to me and I only got a Razor Mx650 and modified it. LoL
Edit: I want an Electro and Co Motor Kit for my Mx650 so badly.... ❤️❤️❤️
Someone needs to be the first to jump full in to electric and take us all on the journey. It's coming anyway, might as well start early. Lol
@@eriklarson9137 - I agree.... I'd love to start a RUclips channel where I convert gas to electric but I don't have that much experience on a welder or a lathe/mill or I'd be all over that. I've seen some really cool ideas from Facebook groups and stuff and I know I can do it too.... I just need some welding/lathe/mill experience so I can make/fix my own parts and modifications.
That little engine it's really fast and loudy too but it's seems incredible all right
This definitely looks like helmet-speed to me :P What a crazy machine
That would be my luck it would definitely run backwards when I first hooked it up. 😆
Just switch two wires.
@@emersonb5764 Yeah it's very simple to fix if it's not a sensord system. If it's sensord ya gotta go into the ESC and change it. I was basically just saying I have super bad luck 😆 ✌️
But fun little ninja bike !
Just because it’s quiet doesn’t mean it won’t kill you. Helmets are good. Gloves are good.
good to see you further your exp with electric its all trial and error.
I would highly recommend a set of Shimano mt-201 brakes
53 mph was the fastest I’ve gone on my old road bicycle. Long downhill with a 53 tooth front ring and 12 tooth rear. I gave up trying to pedal because I ran out of gear and was not putting any power to the ground.
I can’t image going that fast on that little thing and I was running a narrow 20mm wide tire.
Neighbor won't have something to complain about that day.
That is one killer of a motor, wow. Awesome.
Battery life will last a lot longer if you ease into the throttle, instead of just gunning it especially with those tall gears.
I would highly recommend a full-face helmet, leathers and boots not those little moccasins, especially at that speed on that little bike that is definitely not designed to go that fast. Ok, may not all that but definitely goggles, gloves and boots, NOT those moccasins or slippers. 🤣🤣🤣Ride safe.....
i seen this guy from a different channel whereas he was using hub motor for sail boat propulsion his fab was not the best but worked, i mentioned he should use two hubs one on each side of a propeller shaft with the right gears i wonder? you have the skill,I i wish i had a good shop to work in i would give it a go, it's just the water? LOL!
Crazy :D
Even testing get some glasses on. Just testing mine out I got a bug in my eye. Hurt so bad it was everything I could do to keep them open long enough to stop.
And dont smile. Unless you need the extra protien, lol.
80 km/h wow!
i would weld in a brace bar across higher on the handle bars to make them more stable
