Aftermarket ebike Parts: Hard to Find & Make
It feels like there is a lack of aftermarket ebike parts that are plug and play. Even as I try to manufacture some I am running into challenges. Comment with your ideas.

    I enjoy your videos, but I am not interested in dual motors or FWD. Fast acceleration doesn't interest me either. Top speed does, and long-range is even more important to me. I'm not surprised you are finding so many different wiring connectors. Like you I doubt it's on purpose, they use whatever they have available when building these bikes.

    We are in the great taking that the WEF call the great reset. They are taking everything....freedoms, lives, truth, health, businesses, homes, cars etc etc It's no coincidence that parts don't match. The power pryamid is real and we have a lot more theatre coming. Don't let them fool you and do not consent. Do not believe your TV and social media. Had a great three hour ebike mountain bike ride with my eldest son yesterday. My kids get it and are not sucked into the bread & circuses.

  • @jimmyjames8736
    @jimmyjames8736 20 минут назад

    I don't think connector standardization is going to happen. It would be great, but it is just wishful thinking. If I understood things correctly, then you are considering 3 options regarding controller upgrades: 1...Sell controller and let customers figure out connecting it. 2...Sell controllers that are designed to fit specific bikes. 3...Sell controller and stock the many different adaptors needed to cover the majority of bikes. To me, option 1 seems like the worst of the three. It doesn't add anything new to the market. People that are capable of connecting your controller could have done the same with the many other controllers that are currently available on eBay and Amazon. Option 2 may be the most viable. It would require doing market research to determine sales figures for major brands and models, but your workload is mostly up front with market research and part sourcing for the kits. It is a more limited total market, but you get to ship things that normally will be hassle free for both the customer and yourself. This also let's you choose appropriate bikes that are capable of handling the upgrade. Otherwise you will have to deal with unhappy people that thought their little 10 amp hour battery would be no problem with your 40 amp controller. Option 3 seems like a lot of work to me. It will be a lot of work stocking and shipping the many different adaptors needed. Customers will feel frustrated trying to figure out what they need. They will want you to hold their hand, and you will get endless questions. It would be a very useful resource for people, but it sounds awful for you, Citizen.

    Needs to be replacement controllers just for the rear and no front motor that gives 5 mph increases. Just a rear motor to go from 35-40 plus. No dual motor and no dual display

  • @boxchevythecouch245
    @boxchevythecouch245 40 минут назад

    I just got done emailing you back on your update for the warp drive and And saw this video. I was just thinking to myself that after I installing the warp drive I would probably want to upgrade my stock Rear controller to match the front.👍🏼👍🏼. But As you were saying connector issues would be an issue for the variety of bikes out there?? 🤔 . Making it standard for all bikes is going to be a challenge whether you need a adapter plug or something I wish you the best and look forward to what you come up with.. I'm down either way .Keep up the Good Work👍🏼

  • @user-kb8yl2qh3h
    @user-kb8yl2qh3h Час назад

    The best way would be your own kit your own wiring harness where you can add on things like lights and everything else but have your controller your display that basically all standard that would be the best way to do it and have different wheel sizes 2024 and 26 you can have a couple different controllers that can be different sizes that will make things very simple it will cost a little bit more but it's simple for the person that's buying it

  • @user-kb8yl2qh3h
    @user-kb8yl2qh3h Час назад

    Maybe start with a complete kit rear wheel kit that can replace the old wiring harness the old display the old connector for the control box complete with everything that's probably the best way to do it and it's not much more money because the different wiring harnesses make it very difficult so get a standard wiring harness that can be used in your kit instead of trying to adopt to all the different wiring harnesses out there which probably is going to be impossible to do something that will work on 48 volt and 52 volt and something that can be adapted to 60 and 72 volt poor future use

  • @joeberginc7415
    @joeberginc7415 Час назад

    45 amps is too much for a front wheel. 20 amps give better (nonspinning) control. Put all the amps you want in the rear wheel.

  • @bobbybecker80
    @bobbybecker80 Час назад

    Very thoughtful and interesting. The only solution(s) that seem possible are an add on as you've done or a replacement kit.especially as new versions flood the market (and probably disappear) continuously. Maybe as individuals get stuck with non-working bikes they can't get parts for, your solution(s) will become more viable. BTW, I de-wired a recent conversion by removing 30" lengths of wire from both motor and display to controller, but needed to solder about 15 small wires to do it.

  • @deehines5750
    @deehines5750 Час назад

    I'd definitely like some standardized plug and play items, especially for basic utility, like headlights, blinkers and horns. One of my bikes has a great headlight with a built in horn but my primary bike has a trash headlight. I spent $49 to get a headlight upgrade but it was just a cheap $8 temu headlight with a 2 pin ebike connector soldered and electrical taped on. It's bright but it doesn't project forward, it's better for cars to see you than for you to see a dark road.

    @iblackfeathers Час назад

    if the connectors are the only thing holding you back, you can research making in-line adapter converters which might let you use controllers and hubs with different connectors together. make sure also the motors accept the rating output of the controllers to not burn out the motors either.

    • @turkeyssr
      @turkeyssr Час назад

      Is there 1 connector type that is more popular than others? That's where you could begin.

  • @robertbrooks7936
    @robertbrooks7936 Час назад

    Can you start off with the bike that you already have done like the Himiway? And build from there. I believe that you have everything to add the controller for the Himiway already and if so start there.

I am very surprised that LE haven’t been stepping in on any ebike Tyranny! Yeh I just don’t know why the government can’t stay out of ppls lives! I was going to purchase an e bike but if you read various ppls videos some will recite some of the lawless stupidity that they have handed off to wonderful LE depts in different states!

    Turning 64 with disability. I need a step through. A collision might pot me in ICU for good, so I am glad this has the power to accelerate away from threats and have excellent brakes. Lime green is great for visibility, but I'd rather have blue and just wear a fluorescent vest. The unlock function on the menu I can comprehend. Compared to other vids, the step through seems to ride much smoother, less shaking. All this and the extra battery settled my shopping decision immediately. My deliberation is over. Great review!

    I’ve been watching these since last year and wondered how solvent the company is? They seem to keep having to redesign things, change things, and they are still limited in shipping containers. Is this a healthy company, because if not, there are going to be a lot of bikes in various degrees of change looking for spare parts.

    I just got this email from wired. My bike is a month going a month late but this seems cool! Dear Wired Customers, We hope this email finds you well and eagerly anticipating the arrival of your new Freedom or Cruiser ebike. Unfortunately, we have some news that might make your anticipation last a little longer. As you know, we originally promised to ship your bike in May. However, we now expect delivery to you by the end of June for Freedom models and July for Cruisers. Before you start picturing your ebike stuck in a traffic jam on its way from China, let us explain what's going on. At Wired Ebikes, we’re always striving to innovate and improve our products. This year, we’ve made some fantastic upgrades to both the Freedom and Cruiser models, all at no extra cost to you: - **Dual Battery System:** 60v 20ah battery in the front and a 60v 15ah battery in the rear. - **Power Boost:** Our motor now packs a punch with over 3000w and 153nm of torque. - **Controller & Display:** Upgraded to a 45A controller with a more user-friendly display. - **Brakes:** Enhanced from a 2-piston to a 4-piston system with 203mm rotors. - **Front Axle:** Upgraded to a quick-release through axle. - **Cruiser Frame:** Cruiser is now a dual suspension step thru! Now, you might be wondering, "Did these awesome upgrades cause the delay?" The answer is a resounding no! The upgrades were ready to roll. The real culprit here is a bit more complicated. After a review video by CitizenCycle, many of you let us know you weren't thrilled with our "speed based" pedal assist system. You asked for a "power based" pedal assist instead. We heard you loud and clear! So, we halted the shipping process to have every single controller and display re-programmed to meet your expectations. This took longer than we anticipated, and thus, the delay. We know waiting is no fun, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. We wanted to make sure you get the best possible experience with your new ebike, and sometimes that means taking a bit more time to get things just right. If this delay causes you to reconsider your order, we completely understand. We’ve never charged a cancellation fee, and we’re not about to start now. Just let us know and we will refund every penny to you. We value your satisfaction above all else. Just a side note....please be aware that any changes you make on your previous order might delay your shipment even further. There is no fee to change an order and we do not mind doing it! We just wanted you to know that it could cause further delay. Thank you for your patience and understanding. We can't wait for you to experience these amazing upgrades and hit the road with your improved 2024+ Wired ebike. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Warm regards, The Team at Wired Ebikes P.S. We promise the wait will be worth it! 9:40 AM
