Adam CurtisI've gotten all of the electronics wired up and the drive system built too! I've been riding the bike around campus. It pops a wheelie really well, but the gear ratio is 3 times to low. I will be CNC milling a new front sprocket in the next week or so to get my top speed up to 30mph. That will still leave me with LOTS of good torque and a decent top speed as well.
I still need to fabricate guards for the belt drive and the front sprocket.
Also I need to buy a charger for a 16 series LiPo battery. Any suggestions?

I bought a BMS for my e-bike from a electric car parts manufacturer. I added a link below if your interested, Its a bit of a pain to solder all the balance leads but hopefully it helps.
