good recap of the builds. and yes i did end up selling the Buzzraw X 72v HV to someone in NorCal. Was a great build to learn how to make things work on these DIY builds

The Jetson mods are intriguing. Nice to have a small ebike you can place in a car trunk to explore different areas. Did a Zizzo folding bike with BBS02 for a clean build. Used square aluminum tubing over water bottle mount as a riser so battery clears folding hinge. At 40 lbs with battery, it's a lot lighter than the commercial 20" Fat Tire folders. Fun city explorer with good speed & hill climbing, just beware the potholes.

That sounds like a really neat solution! Good job.

Thanks Capt. for posting my Scrambler. I’ll have to add my 72v HV build after I do a few upgrades and some fun rides I have planned this spring. Love all the rides!!!Happy Holidays

Some of those full suspension bikes with the huge battery's under the down tube look like the wheel will rub if you use the travel

@HighVoltageKits 7 ай бұрын

I think the suspension on the LR has been locked out a bit. Most of them people test using a ratchet strap or similar but its definitely a consideration for this type of mounting.

Would like to see a deeper dive on the "lightest" electric bike kit if the opportunity presents.

@HighVoltageKits 7 ай бұрын

I wrote them! Lets see if they are interested in having it featured. I can do some digging in the meantime and see what I can find out.

Wow,!!!! "..... I've seen Kimba!! 😊 I didn't expect. I'm getting old😂.. now yes we are international 😄 Thank you Captain ❤️👍💯 was the bike pickup. I'm really dumb😅...... Besides, the words you used are beautiful.💖 They are so invisible in front of the world, in front of people, that when someone dedicates a few seconds of their life to me, they seem to be part of this world, sometimes. Maybe it's also the fact that as human beings we need feedback.... It will also be the factor that as human beings,. We need to be part of the community, of daily life. Although I've never looked for it. Perhaps unintentionally. I think it's normal when you're marginalized by your own people and country. As you are not a photocopy like everyone else and you are not part of the system. Sometimes I would like to disappear from this place and take all my dogs with me to find a better place. The failure of a country is to exclude people who live their lives in another way. For others, it is so. For me, it's a normal thing

Hey! Glad you liked Kimbas cameo role. Cheers. I can't fix the rest but happy this helped if for a moment.

Where on the channel is Tor2's (is that the spelling?) long-range touring bike covered (10:11)? I'd like to learn more about it. Thanks.

I remembered slightly wrong and it's just a short. You are welcome to join discord though and ask questions. Pretty sure he is on there still kzfaq.infoXJhpvoc29Cs?feature=share

what's your take on Ebike's with 3 motor

@HighVoltageKits 7 ай бұрын

Good question. I'll maybe put this in a q and a video. Short answer is it depends. If it's something you are considering I would be as logical as you can and ask the question. Does all the added complexity give you anything that a single decent motor cannot.

@djneils100 7 ай бұрын

the first one is not a bike. it's a motorbike

@HighVoltageKits 7 ай бұрын

It has a bottom bracket on the frame that's been adapted. It could have had pedals. I see your point though. However the channel looks at light electric vehicles in general. So it's not just limited to ebikes. A lot of what we do is in the grey area between larger vehicles and ebikes otherwise lots of other vehicles show would not have met the legal definition of an ebike. So while that vehicle is not strictly an ebike it's more a light electric vehicle it was included. Lots of us want to see classifications changed and enhanced to better enable this kind of thing we think it's needed in the world which was why it was on the list. Appreciate the comment. Cheers.
