    Excellent 👍. I do the same thing with a simple 20 inches folding bike. For a good gravity and to distribute the weight, i put a front wheel motorised, i change the rear wheel for a double wall rim (like the front wheel). I also put battery and controller on the rear rack in a waterproof case and i finally change the stem to adjust handlebar height. Really Love my Bike! Compact, light, foldable, i can bring him on my apartment. I can ride at 50kmh!! But i always ride at 25-30kmh max... I think it's an Excellent car alternative, i ride everyday to work (20km go & back).

    You made that look way too easy! Nicely done! I have a Dahon I'd like to convert as well, but rather have the motor on the front wheel. I'll probably be referring to this video when the time comes!

      Absolutely, I worked in construction beck when we were building Nuclear Power Plants and we used a lot of Coppershield when assembling pumps. Our hardware ran at just over 2000 psi and over 600 degrees fahrenheit but I don't know of any that froze.

  • @artofwarandpeace9126
    @artofwarandpeace9126 5 лет назад

    I want my electric bycylce to carry on for more than 1 or 2 hours, so I'm going to find out how many capacitors and at what size they need be to turn one shift phase.
    Once I established those two factors, I will make in rows the applied factors to take turns going through the three phases in a loop. The trick is a solid state distribution cuircut. The energy return or closed loop would require a generator or inverse motor on the remaining wheel. Of course if one regenerative system is not working try two. Like a truck that has 4 alternators to power a large stereo but with the addition of kinetic energy.

    Ask also where you buy them.
    An explanatory diagram is needed to see all the cable connections of the bicycles that have been welded.
    You could have hung it on a link to a free and public server.
