This electric conversion kit is sold as a set of forks that contain the complete kit including built up wheel with hub motor ,controller in the fairing along with LED headlamp and a handlerbar mounted thumb throttle.
This allows the original petrol motor to still be used, meaning either, either OR both together at the same time. Instalation is as easy as swopping out the forks and adding an Ebike battery ( not included ) on the rear,ideally 48v 20ah with a 50A BMS readily available on-line .
This kit is seen as not only a conversion to electric for the purpose of riding in restricted Ultra Low Emission Zones but ALSO as an overall vast improvment to the preformance enhancer when used as a twin motor set up it gives a turbo like boost to help with acceleration from a standing start and gets up to the 30mph much quicker.
On it’s own the electric motor will pull away faster and reach 30 mph equivalent to the original set up , range is deteremined by battery AH’s the 48v 20Ah can do 25 miles on average , you have the option to buy bigger or smaller OR a second battery depending on your range requirement.
Both engine together do not increase speed only accleration, once up to top speed the pretol engine can hold it and no longer needs the electric assist.
The video’s show the different use’s of this set up and demonstrate the comparisions.
