G'day Folks...
My good mate has put together a balltearer of an electric, unfortunately he doesn't have a great deal of time to be involved in the online forum due to family and work commitments so those not a member on Endless Sphere will have missed out on this magnificent custom built bike.
A thread on ES has been created to give members a data base of performance from different configs ie. Hubs v's non hub v's rc etc in all possible configurations. This thread requires members to mark out a 100 meter section on flat road and time their bike (from a stand still NO pedal assist) across this distance. To date the best time is a tad under 7seconds, done using dual HXT Outruner RC motors and lipo combo a 17hp MONSTER...
I bring to you Matts 100m video

To put this time into perspective v's the record creating bike, Matt used ONE 1000watt motor NOT two 7000watt motors as per the record holders outfit with a 35amp max speed controller (soon to be upgraded to a higher spec Kelly WOOT.... lookout Luke LoL) Not 2 150ampo max controllers that for memory were pulling in the vicinity of 300amp if i recall correctly along with half a dozen high end lipo batteries capable of providing the mojo with minimal to no voltage sag.
One fantastic looking bike, one **** fast bike, its TOTALLY SILENT nill chain noise usies a belt drive system through a nexus 3 speed to top it off it is one dam fine constructed and finished custom bicycles.
Specs
1000watt Cyclone Brushless Motor
Cyclon 48v 35amp Max speed controller
Headway Lifep04 48v 20ah batteries
3 speed Nexus hub
front and rear hydraulic disks.
Top speed (geared to) 60km/hr
Crusie speed 45km/hr
Range 60km @ 45km/hr
Was AWSOME catching up for a ride today was EXCELLENT timing we have curb side collection this week and the verges were packed, we covered a very slow ~8km picking up booty and pilling on the back of my trike tray and wheelchair LoL...Matt scored a nice higher end 1980's ish higher end Road Racing bike (be seeing more of that soon i predict) I nabbed a digital setup box (working) Philips slimline dvd player (working) old p4 pc (working) To add to Assorted metal plate and tubing OH couple of LCD panelled landline phones (NEW STILL IN BOX!!!) the pc desk i scored Friday sold today for 100 bucks ;-)
Anyway, hope you fellas find the vid of interest, i thoroughly enjoyed the few hours we were out riding and look forward to many more jaunts in the near future... im still shaking my head at how silent Matts bike is :: shakes head in bewilderment:: i thought my trike was quiet sounds like a train compared to Matts cruiser LoL
