20 inch 1000watt or 1500watt front electric hub motor kit

Q: I want to purchase a 20 inch electric bike kit front wheel for my rickshaw, I only ride it with my twin boys they are 3 years old. I obviously don’t want anything with a great top speed I and simply looking for some assistance on hills.From your 1000 watt hub motor wheels listed, it looks like your older design model has a top speed of 30mph so I am thinking that probably has the best gearing not the newer version which show 45mph. The 1500 watt hub motor motor appeals but again same thing only shows with high top speed 45mph…Can you please suggest the best front wheel electric bike kit for me. It has to be 20″ and
has a standard 100mm wide fork.

A: Our new version hub motor also have low speed. Also 1500w motor has low speed.You just tell us what speed would you like, we can do it for you.Our 20 inch front hub motor is fit for 100mm wide fork. Also we have 1500w front.

Q: then I would prefer to order the 1500watt hub motor, do you offer that in the 20 inch with cast hub or only spokes as can’t see 1500watt with cast hub listed. I assume the cast hub would be stronger than the spoke version and therefore better for rickshaw.

A: We have 20 inch spokes 1000w & 1500w front hub motor.We have these motors in stock.But caste hub,only 1000w,don’t have 1500 casted hub.

Q: I am still keen to go with the 1500 hub motor but the spoke version is has quite a narrow rim.I don’t suppose you could fit it with a wider rim, so I can use a 2 1/4″ or 2 1/2″ tyre or bigger would be now problem if you have them.Your standard rim states 1.5 – 1.95″ tyre which is a little small I want use a moped tyre because of weight on rickshaw and they are mostly all bigger than your standard rim.

Technical problem with a 20 inch 48V 1000W bike kit – problem solved

Today I hit in a technical problem with the 20inch 48V 1000W bike conversion kit (Item ID:#LBCK20481000FN). I was riding for a shorter distance steep uphill in level 5 and suddenly the bike motor was making an obscure humming sound and was vibrating very strong. So I stopped immediately and shut down the system. I checked the hub motor and the cable for overheating but they where just with normal temperature. After a while, I already turned to go back downhill, I started the system again but the problem still exists. It seems that it is maybe a problem with the controller because now there is no reaction in changing the power level (1-5) or turning the throttle on. The hub motor gets only around 10 Amps with a max. of 590W (measured with a installed Amp/Volt meter in between). When starting pedaling or with the throttle with low speed the vibrations are immense but when I gain more speed the vibrations are reducing to a lower level but they are still there. When staying still and pull the throttle full, so the tire normally can spin free, only the vibrations and a loud humming sound exists. I know I do not have any warranty more leftover on this system but maybe you have an idea how I can repair this for a budget price.

I already solved the bike conversion kit system problem.
Funny what unexpected small things could cause some different technical reactions. The problem of the bike conversion kit problem above was, that one of the 3 phase cables to the motor was broken. By the effect of the depicted problems above I really thought that something in the controller was burnt-out but happily I could find the broken cable very soon so now everything
works fine again.

Buy an electric hub motor kit

I’m very interested in buying an electric bike kit as soon as possible for my bicycle (26 inch rim )and I found your page but I would like to know about all the models you’ve got from the smallest to the biggest and strongest ;and THE PRICES of these and all the specifications:
speed (km/h)
torque
durability
distance of charge
weight (of the electric bike kit)
weight (it can carry)
does it come with battery what type of battery (lithium ,lead)
voltage
amperage
watts
rims what type of rim

I’m not really interested in the rim (inch)but some info would be good ,I want to find out about these brushless hub motor

I need something that lasts 70 km and runs at 60 km/h on a flat surface with lots of power like to move 150-180kg of weight (bicycle me, hub motor, and a little extra weight)

what does the electric bike kit include?:hub motor battery controller throttle, brake lever, pedal sensor BATTERY MEASURE etc.

and what combinations can the electric bike kit fit 36v – 48v – 24v -6,7,8,9,10 amps if possible

the same for the rear motor and for the front hub motor

(front rear) sizes, types ,performances PRICES and everything they can do the thing is that I live in wide mountains so I need something strong but lasting for I live far away of the city.

26 inch electric hub motor kit for the dropout 160mm fork

Q: Are you able to supply a rear hub motor kit wheel (36v @ 500W – 750w) for a rear dropout of 160mm?
I have an existing e-bike that uses a 250w geared rear hub drive on a 26 x 1.95 wheel.
It has a 7 speed gear, standard 160mm disk brake and a bike mount (frame) width of 160mm.
I would be happy to go from a geared (small hub) to the larger electric bike motor kit type.
The existing bike frame is steel (not carbon or an alloy) so I may be able to ‘bend’ the rear forks… (fit).
I have included a PDF diagram (attached) to show the existing rear hub motor fitting size.

A: Yes, we have dropout of 160mm 36V 750W electric bike motor.

Q: With the new Leaf controller and LCD, I know I can limit the maximum output speed of the 750w Direct Drive hub motor to a set (safe) maximum speed for each PAS mode 1 – 5.
With our Australian laws, I want to honor speed and safety – yet have a safe speed and torque (reserved) for hills.
I respect that you have kindly supplied my order with a 320RPM hub motor ( a good choice).
My question is: “Does the max speed by set by LCD / Controller economically limit the maximum current sent to the hub motor”?
I am talking here about battery life with a low speed LCD / Controller setting ‘modulating’ the full power sent to the hub motor.
So if I program the setting to say 25Km/h, then is the torque output effected at speeds less than the given 25Km/h?

A: Yes, if you set max 25kmh by LCD, motor will work less than 25kmh.(You can set max 10kmh,11kmh,12kmh….48kmh,49kmh,50kmh)

1.Press “SW” from LCD. Turn on LCD
2.Press “up” &”down” together for more than 2 seconds in 3 seconds after LCD display – Then “72” will flash.
3.Press “down” or “up” to set any max speed. Press “SW” one time to save. Then “26” will flash. It’s tire size. Don’t set. Still press “SW” one time to save. Then “kmh / mph” will flash. Don’t set. Press “SW” one time to save.
4.At last, press “SW” more than 2 seconds, then will be back.

There is a Three button switch inside parcel.

** Black switch (be Left side / Middle – motor works forward. Be right side, motor works backward/reverse)
** Red switch (Be left side / regen off. Be right side / regen on)
** Green switch ( When motor is working, press this green switch one time. LCD is display C, motor will work as the same speed) – Re-press this green switch one time, or press brake lever, turn throttle to max, motor will stop.

measure electric bike hub motor hall sensors

Bike motor controller is fine, they all got 4.9~5.0 from meter reading. We will open and check the hub motor after work. We are more worried about if the electric bike motor itself is damaged.

Could you get the below data:
1. Remove this white biggest plug, power on and measure volt of white biggest from brushless motor controller.
Red, Black, blue, green and yellow
1.Red and black is about 4.9V
2.Blue and black is about 4.9V
3.Green and black is about 4.9V
4.Yellow and black is about 4.9V

If you can get the data, the bldc motor controller is okay.

LCD always display “05 flashing”.
The issue comes from electric bike motor hall.(five wire: red, black, green, blue and yellow)
Could you check this five wires whether through?

This is a instruction about how to disconnect this hub motor.
It takes about 10 minutes to disconnect.

You will find a PCB around the rotor-winding. There are five wires (red, black, green, blue and yellow) are on this PCB.

I removed both panel on hub motor and did a quick test. All the thin wire looks fine. They can go through from both side. But the thick wire connect to enameled wire that I can’t test since they been wrapped up.

If Not flashing. Then it will work.
Could you get below data from electric bike motor hall sensor?

Three are three hall sensors around rotor winding.
For example:
hall 1 Green (pin 1.1 pin 1.2 pin 1.3)
hall 2 Yellow (pin 2.1 pin 2.2 pin 2.3)
hall 3 Blue (pin 3.1 pin 3.2 pin 3.3)

Pin 1.1 ,pin 2.1 and pin 3.1 are connected to the red wire together.
Pin 2.1 ,pin 2.2 and pin 2.3 are connected to the black wire together.
Pin 1.3 is green,pin 2.3 is yellow,pin 3.3 is blue.

Volt meter Red Pin to Pin x.1 black Pin to x.2 (x=1,2,3)You will get below data:
Pin 1.1 and pin 1.2 is about 1.185 (see picture 5)
Pin 2.1 and pin 2.2 is about 1.185
Pin 3.1 and pin 3.2 is about 1.185

Volt meter Red Pin to Pin x.1 black Pin to x.3 (x=1,2,3)You will get below data:
Pin 1.1 and pin 1.3 is about 1.498 (see picture 4)
Pin 2.1 and pin 2.3 is about 1.498
Pin 3.1 and pin 3.3 is about 1.498

Volt meter Red Pin to Pin x.2 black Pin to x.3 (x=1,2,3)You will get below data:
Pin 1.2 and pin 1.3 is about .633 (see picture 6)
Pin 2.2 and pin 2.3 is about .633
Pin 3.2 and pin 3.3 is about .633

Another way to test hall sensor:
Connect all wires, power on.

Measure red, black, green, blue and yellow BLDC motor hall wires
1.Red and black is about 4.9V
2.Black and yellow is about 4.9 or 0V (Please use your hand to turn hub motor, the data will change from 4.9-0V)
3.Black and blue is about 4.9 or 0V (Please use your hand to turn hub motor, the data will change from 4.9-0V)
4.Black and green is about 0V or 4.9V (Please use your hand to turn hub motor, the data will change from 0V-4.9V)

If nothing is changed, this hall was broken.
How about the other black and red wire?
Only black or red wire can’t touch well or not go through, 05 will be always flashing.

1500w hub motor rpm

I have done a little more testing with the 1500w hub motor. I think that I am
happy with the current winding. I am giving the motor 65A battery, 180
amps phase.. and it is like a rocket now.
The efficiency is very good.. the most efficient hub motor I have
tested.. good work!

But I want to be sure about the winding for my post about your 48V 1500W bike motor,
because your webpage shows lots of different RPM for the same motor (
this is confusing )..

If someone orders the hub motor from your website.. they will receive a 16*4
turn motor, which is 650rpm @ 49v = 13.26 kV
And the 13*5 turn motor would do 550rpm @ 49v = 11.2 kV
Is this correct…?

P.S. If you are interested in having a hub motor re-seller.. I told someone
in the USA about your hub motors and told him about my tests.

I got the hub motor and have tested it. It’s a great hub motor, but the winding is too fast for a 26 inch,650B,700C,28 inch,29 inch hub motor wheel.It’s better for 14 inch,16 inch,18 inch,20 inch,24 inch bike motor wheel.

The no load speed on the hub motor I received = 640rpm on 49v.

I notice on your web page that you sell stator windings.. I was wondering
how many turns this hub motor has.

Is it possible that you could sell me a stator winding with one more turn that could do 500-550rpm on 49v?

16 * 4T 650RPM
13 * 5T 550RPM
11 * 6T 450RPM
9 * 7T 350RPM
8 * 8T 250RPM
7 * 9T 150RPM
