    Mongoose Dolomite Ebike Budget Build for my Buddy

    I'll let my friend decide on the following things I would do if I kept it: 1. Cut the handle bars down... too wide. 2. keep the super padded seat in pic. 3. Paint rear rim black... up to him.

    Tested a 48v lunacycle battery on the stock sondors rear hub motor/controller, and resulted in a nice bump in tq..... but the gear set started to complain. I do have just over 1020 miles on the sondors, so perhaps a little tired too?. I put the stock 36v battery back on the rear motor and...

    I just completed a 30miler this AM...... using the stock sondors 36v battery on the rear hub motor... and no issues at all.... perhaps the gears/or clutchs (if there are any) got over heated? This sondors is a fabulous bike, for the price, or any price for that matter.... it is the 57 chevy...

    Issue with upgraded controller for Sondors from AliExpress

    You might try to disconnect the PAS cable. I have a controller that acts like this when I use the Pedal Assist feature...... as soon as the computer senses pedalling.... it just ramps the throttle to wide-open position until you stop pedalling or hit the brakes.
