We converted my old handcycle bike to electric, A front drive hub motor that is 1000W, 48V! It has plenty of power and can go over and through almost anything. I love this thing!
Check out my brother’s channel where he builds cool things like this: ‪@ShoreGarage‬

The 2 kits I bought (hub motor & battery) are from amazon:
(Electric Bicycle Wheel Kit 20" Front Wheel Hub Motor Electric Bike Conversion Kit, 48V 1000W E-Bike Brushless Gearless Powerful Hub Motor Waterproof w/LCD Display (48V 1000W Front Wheel): www.amazon.com/dp/B0BNBVJWQH?...

36V 48V Lithium Battery, 48V Ebike Battery 11Ah 17Ah Electric Bike Battery with 2A Fast Charger 30A BMS for 0-1400W Motor, USB Output, Safe Lock, Led Indicator Light, with Base and Charger (48V 11Ah): www.amazon.com/dp/B0CRR7DB3L?...

Looks like a ton of fun ! You need some tractor weights on the front wheel to stop it spinning.

put a little oil in the tube/tire, will increase its weight, lower center of gravity, and decrease volume of air needed to inflate it

A guy in Florida gave me one of thes old top ends. They are basically the first hand cycles to come out. I tried on sandy and gravel terrain. It was hard to pedal and spun out a lot. I should have tried it on pavement first. But ya the problem with this old design is the lack of weight over the front wheel. It will spin out a lot. Now having the e motor on that front wheel will give it more weight but with all the extra power it’s spinning out a lot in the video. Have you been able to resolve that problem?

Really nice one thing we are (maybe) a little ahead on here in the netherlands is how ebike parts have been 'moving' places we see more than a few of the drive trains from them (mostly bosch) being used on other mobility things from 2 wheels to 4 wheels. The variation and adaptations people can now make compared to before and the price levels of parts that can be reused makes for some awesome things i now encounter over here.

This is so simple and awesome. You just need to do something to distribute the weight on the front wheel. Maybe the angle of the front fork is too slanting backwards. If you somehow try to slice and make it a little bit straighter, it will do a good job. I know the handle will extend forward. But then you can replace it with the bent cruiser handle, which will be even more comfortable. Shifting the seat a bit forward will also do the trick. I mean this will prevent the wheel from spinning without traction and will save a lot of battery power.

so cool... that thing is super zippy and stable... 5 years ago i wanted a fat tire trike but on amazon they were 2k... i figured i could make my own for cheaper... i was both right and wrong bc i could have made one for well under that... gut i ended spending way more bc i had so much fun building it... i bought a 20inch mongoose fat tire bike so i could lace the rims on the tricycle hubs... then i had a 26 fat tire wheel with a motor for the front... one of the saftey concerns i ran into was the steel slotted axel wallowing out the dropouts and either spinning the motor out or loosening up the wheel enough that it would drop out and normally thats not a concern but with allthe added wheight of the motor it made me very fearful... i ended up installing some tourue arms... i recently this year got a awd ebike a bigniu bg10... i didnt want to have to worry about the same problem on my new ebiek that i had with my old one so i did some internet sluething and found a brand of bike called meelod... they actually have a axel retention solution for powered forks built into the drop outs... i bought a pair... but ur a handy guy and you could prolly built it urself... while ur add it turn ur old forks into "para" lever suspension forks... or something... anyways enjoyed the vid and subscribed... looking forward to your future vids... very cool dood...

That’s a cool bike. Hearing that spinning I now understand why my rear wheel on my eBike has the motor on it, my added weight stops it from spinning. If you can install a skinny bike rack on the front you could add something for weight over the front wheel.

you didnt look on my channel. I made a hand bike like that using a wheelchair and the front of a bike. Later on I got too weak to crank it well so I converted it into an ebike. 36 volts. 500 watt motor with a 1000 watt battery. It goes scary fast. I then added a 12 volt motorcycle battery and added lights and signals to it.

Was there consideration into putting the motors into both rear tires? Rear wheel drive should help get rid of that tire spin. Throw a 48v 60ah to run both motors and you are gold! What was the discussion like going into the purchase? Also, have you realized it's max range yet?

Yes i did consider the rears at first but the rear wheels are a quick disconnect and come off easily for transport.

Great project! What kind of range are you getting? I have an old handcycle that I'm getting too old to pedal, this looks like a simple enough conversion.
@chefmarcg

its spinning because it is in front of the center of mass and trying to pull. it would be better if the back wheels were the powered ones. then the force would be behind the center of mass and be pushing and also have much more weight on them, it would stop the spinning. you would have way more acceleration and torque

Instead of welding those bars under battery you could put there 3x bigger square battery. Would have wayyy better range. But anyways thats great idea. Government should donate those electric kits to every person with disability. Those are super cheap and can change someones life.
