Battery –
Better Battery (Lithium) –
E-Bike Motor Kit –

Complete ebike if you don’t want to build –
Bike I used –
Almost same bike from Amazon –
*Dual Suspension is important at higher speeds. This is the least expensive option you will find. Works great.
No Music Version –
Update video –
This video explains how to convert a bicycle to an electric bike (eBike). The battery setup is the cheapest option out there, 4 SLA batteries connected in a series.
The rack they send you will limit your shocks if you have a rear suspension. This rack would work much better for a hardtail- http://amzn.to/2pzArad
Subscribers please let me know what you think. This is my first non-photography related tutorial.

Check out the FAQ/UPDATE video – https://youtu.be/CU9PcscbU-8 Also the No music version –
Very cool!
Can we use a car battery ?
Thank you for posting this tutorial. How many miles do you get on one full charge?
Was about to bail when I saw the no music version link
i just bought a new one under 300 ..
hey.. great video.. id love to do this on my mountain bike but it doesnt have disc brakes.. do i only need to convert the front brake to disc? thanks
MUSIC SUCK s CHILD.
connecting the batteries in series is not wise because the amp of the four batteries won't add up in that way. better to get a new suited voltage battery
hey sir plz tell me is it cost so much
Quenched my desire for speed in an affordable way- thanks!
very inspiring mate !
very nice
How about a fold able like about 20" tires mountain or all terrain e-bike DIY
the bike kit link is not the same kit you used on yours
Awesome work. Was hoping big companies or Tesla itself do motorbikes.
How much did everything cost?

Hey, Great Video! Im thinking of going one step bigger, how do I buy the right battery and charger if I got the 3000W kit?

i spent about $500 on this, and it took about 8hours just too hook it all up, i too my bike for test run and the bike rack was so heavy that it snaped!and when i used the throtle my bike went fast for afew feet than the batterys fly off of the bike rack!i had too run it the road and pick them up!lucky they didn't crack, leak!it took me 2 hours just get my old break cable off,.when i hit the throttle it went fast but the front wheel acted out of control, i used a 21 speed 26" mongoose mountain bike for the project with a bike rack Amazon.com : Ibera PakRak Bicycle Touring Carrier Plus+, Frame-Mounted for Heavier Top & Side Loads, Height Adjustable, Fender Board, for 26"-29" Frames : Bike Racks : Sports & Outdoors

Does pedal mode became harder?
Those Walmart specials fall apart with normal peddle power, doesn't seem like a safe platform to build that on.
Well i got hydrolic breaks rip that won't work for me
Hell, can i convert this bike https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0161WD3ZE/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza with exact same kit and 3 batterys that go on rear rack?
