DIY eBike Cost only $115 to Convert my bike - 250watt 24v geared motor, full Build

In this video I'm showing a homemade 250 Watt geared motor ebike and a full build of the ebike. I ordered the new parts on amazon cost about $115 USD for 250watt geared motor, 24v controller and throttle kit, two 12v lead acid batteries and one free wheel sprocket all other materials were rusty scrap metal that I recycled and the bike I already had. You can build this without welding by using two free wheel sprockets and an adapter just remove your cassette and install. I like to weld on the freewheel sprocket and keep the original gears. This ebike works really well I've been touring around I mostly use the motor for assist, makes riding up big hills very easy. I can use the bike as a full ebike, it gets up most hills without help from peddling and moves alone at a good pace. The batteries I'm using are 12 volt 10 amp hours two of them in series for a 24v 10ah battery I can get about 24 mins out of the batteries when using the motor constantly, if used for just peddle assist can probably ride for about an hour or more depending on how many up hill climbing.

I built a Cheap homemade ebike electric bicycle, how to build a cheap ebike at home,
No product placement in this video, all parts were bought on my dollar, I look for the best prices to build up a cheap geared ebike. You can build this without welding or can buy a kit that comes with the bracket to mount to your frame. Used a high torque 24 volt geared DC brushed motor.
This bike is a Raleigh Serengeti 21 speed with full suspension, the motor was mounted to the swing arm using a homemade bracket. bracket can be cut out with a angle grinder, I used a plasma cutter, 4 bolts hold the bracket onto the swing arm, no drilling into original bike frame. I charge the batteries with a 12v charger or I use some of my homemade solar panels with a solar charge controller.

I mean this in the nicest way possible but man what a dirty build, I love it. Welding everything together out of scraps and slapping on some paint with everything still together is exactly how I would have done it... I will do it, parts are ordered now

[Sixalienasa]

You have an amazing clear concise precise way of explaining the process so others could do the same. Remind me to disregard anything you ever put up on YouTube again.

Perfect Video! Thank you for sharing your experience with a geared motor. I've been trying to find a good video demonstrating a low Voltage geared uphill climb! Keep up the inspiring builds!

[RustRehab]

Looks cool, I've been thinking about either an ebike or one of those little 2/4 stroke bike motors sometime as a little commuter in the summer

[Truth_Sigma]

[abc-ednr]

[gjespinosa]

I'd like to modify this setup to add a "crank powered" 750 watt ebike motor repurposed as a generator powering a 250/350/450 watt while charging a small battery pack or super cap bank.The goal here is to use as minimal lithium battery pack as possible.

[crunchyy]

do you need to buy a separate battery or do you just need the controller that came with the kit

[Photocafe]

May i ask what's your weight in this video?

[BlazeByte]

Hi. is it possible to pedal while using the throttle ?

[eduardoguedes]

I bought this kit but in this video you looks faster than I will be with mine... What controler are you using? It is the original 250 W controler from this kit? If not tell me, I wanna know how improve my bike

[makeitathome]

If you pedal the bike, would the motor charge the battery?

[danieliskandar]

I have the same kit but it is very slow and it is not able to go on hills do you think this is the motor problem or the battery

[ddrusa]

Nah it's your bike and with a skit video diy cool concept though

[powchainsamaniego]

That type motor I don't call it as a ebike
