Hi Folks
I used the below kit to build an electric bike recently. Has any of you guys used this hub motor? How's the review?

I built 2 different types of battery myself - used the below batteries to produce 52+ Amps
3.2 V 5400 mAh LiFePO4 Lithium Iron Phosphate 32700 Battery Cells 32650

18650 Li-ion Batteries Flashlight Rechargeable Battery 2200mAh 3.7V

Even though I have a powerful batteries, I hardly go at 16mph speed with pedaling (100% effort). I was expecting the speed to be at least 25mph with zero effort. I was expecting a drastic improvement with the 2nd battery I built using the Li-Ion batteries, but the speed is exactly the same.
I am now considering buying either a new controller for the hub motor OR buy another 1000W hub motor. I am confident about the battery but not 100% sure about the hub motor performance. Would really appreciate if any of any of you guys can provide some guidance to me.
Thanks.
