250W motor and 36V battery, nope not good for hilly Vancouver!

OK so I have a rear bike rack that I would like to mount a brake/signal light to. The seatpost mounting does not work as the light gets blocked when you put anything on the rack. Here is where I would like it mounted:

Same one as I got, it is a great little mirror!

Does anyone know if there is a way to get the display to show your speed when the motor is not engaged? It would be nice to know your speed at all times. Thanks, Alt

Waterproof connector...look on Aliexpress

Thanks, I call her ol' yeller!

Took my new e-bike out for its first real ride...about 20km (12 miles). Added a mirror to it and I am just loving it! Alt

You won't see a review of the bike on EBR unless someone pays for it to be reviewed.

Yes but a bike shop told me to make sure it is compatible with Shimano

Can anyone tell me if you can use oil for Shimano hydraulic brakes in Zoom hydraulic brakes?

Here is ol' Yeller all setup! Just charging one of the batteries

WooHoo, bike arrived by the UPS fella 10 minutes ago....Now got to build a cabinet then the wife will let me put the bike together! 😜

If you are looking to build batteries here is a book specifically on doing that: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0989906701/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tpbk_p1_i0

This is the one I bought, turn signals, brake light and running light. The light has an 18650 battery that you can replace if you need. The remote lights up as well for night riding. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B06XXHDQLN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Welcome aboard....Is that a Bafang motor on there 🤣

Jabberwocky your analogy does not hold water...Virtually every motor vehicle can go over 100 MPH, but we expect people to adhere to posted speed limits and 99% of the time people do and you do not see limiters to keep the speed to say 60MPH. We are for the most part adults and do not need to be...

I think that as long as you are riding sensibly you would not have to worry about tickets unless your bike is actually an electric scooter with pedals as one person here in Vancouver BC found out.

If you want to know about building battery packs take a look at ebikeschool on youtube. Here is the link, he even has books on battery building. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRMrqzsrPIWvY3PINkLKs-Q From what I read actual soldering is not recommended at all...Spot welder is the way to go...

Yes I use to ride a motorbike before I had to get rid of in my separation. Now I am waiting on my Lankeleisi XT750 (Cyrusher calls theirs the Cyrusher Lankeleisi XT750) and am hoping it is here by the end of the month. Have not ridden a bike in over 40 years (turning 60 this year) and am...
