How to build an amazing DIY electric powered fat bike with car wheels and motorcycle tires

In this video you see me building an electric powered fat bike with car wheels and motorcycle tires. The video contains the full build start to finish. I added chapters below to easily navigate through the video.
I used the front wheels of a Porsche Boxster. They were a good fit because they are only 7 inches wide, so it was possible to mount 190-50-17 motorcycle tires.
Electronics, motor and wheel hub are from a salvaged e-bike that was all Bosch equipped. I used the Shimano 8 gear hub to be able to change gears.
Also I wanted something special for the steering system so I built a system with hinges and pushrods which works very well and looks really cool :)
Almost 2 years ago I built my first fat bike but it had some flaws. It was really heavy due to the 20 inch wheels, and brakes and motor were underpowered. So I solved all those issues in this new version.
If you have not yet seen the build video of that bike you can check it out by following the link below:

Technical details:
7" x 17" Porsche Boxster wheels (front wheels)

Range approximately 60 km
Topspeed 25 km/h (the pedal assist is electronically limited at 25 km/h because of the law in here in Belgium)
color frame: Porsche oak green metallic
color wheels: Porsche white gold mettalic

AWESOME!!!! Just (sorta) what I envisioned for future EV bikes. Tires a lot bigger, but I understand the limited choice available. I had not thought of routing the steering like you did, amazing. But bigger hubs, YES, solid wheels, YES, able to remove wheel via bolts on one side, YES, simple strong frame able to hold a ton of items or batteries, YES. What would be great is the new Pinion gear system with motor included giving both wide ranged of gears, power and simpler mounting with a belt drive. But this is what I've wanted to build, but don't have the skills. (needs rear or front rack for grocery shopping in my version)

I love the look of the bike, it is very futuristic. Have you ever considered a fully electric version? That oversized frame gap between the top frame and power assist could fit a huge power pack and with those tyres and steering you could make a 150-200km range bike that's fully electric. Great design and I enjoyed the video.

@ibarro9061 5 ай бұрын

I feel like the frame gap is part of its design/charm he wants to accomplish, putting something in there will ruin the look he's hoping for.

It's beautiful. I liked the first one but square tires on a bike must have been like riding a bucking bronco in the corners. I laughed when you showed how well the front wheel tracks to the handle bars, I was expecting it to be a little quicker or slower but you got it perfect. There might be some mechanical advantage to be had there. I generally like mid drives but your counter shaft seems like the perfect place to put a motor. Ever think of putting suspension on these creations?

Словил сильный когнитивный диссонанс. Человек явно хорошо знаком с инструментами, опытный, но при этом творит какую-то бредовую чертовщину. Такое чувство, будто он делал Франкенштейна, но боялся что тот сбежит, и поэтому делал всё что бы тот далеко не сбежал))). Когда все в мире пытаться облегчить массу велосипеда, используют лёгкие сплавы и композиты, автор делает раму из широченной железной трубы, а колеса это вообще за гранью разума). Особенно "радуют" надёжность узлов, продуманность решений, а главное расчет мощности)) На такую массу ставить такой слабый двигатель и батарею... Песня. Остаётся только пожелать автору светлого разума, так как навык и энтузиазм явно достаточный)

@HennyButabi - Nice looking design and I admire the considerable effort and time it must've taken you (the time-lapse doesn't convey), however there were a couple noteworthy observations. Firstly you chose a much heavier box steel frame, why? And powered it with a gutless 250 watt (UK legal) Bosch motor. Secondly, I noticed your steering linkage had a lot of play in it, enough to perhaps cause seriously undesirable wobble keeping in a straight line. And with tyres that large, a brushless hub motor inside the front and/or rear wheels, would deliver the kind of power more suited for a build of that overall weight. One could literally bolt in a 37kw three phase motor into that spacious frame... And hey presto, you'd have some really precarious fun with it. 😉🤣 Keep up the good imaginative and innovative work!
