    Mid drive electric conversion on a Specialized MTB. This is the best E-MTB conversion I've seen. It is 750w which makes it street legal. This bike can dominate offroad and in the streets. Stay tuned for the next conversion, it will be 10x more powerful!

    I've been into diy ebikes for 2 years now and I'm saving to build one myself since Sur Rons in Europe, if not registered, are only offroad legal, you can't ride them on the street with no registration and license and get away with it. So it's very exciting to see you step into the Diy ebike theme. That's some amazing content to look forward to!

      sur rons are not road legal in any US state to my knowledge (might be a few exceptions). they are not mopeds because of power/speed/lack of pedals. I dont know how people get away with not being registered/insured, etc
      Probably in many states you could equip them with road legal lights/mirrors, register/insure them, but no one seems interested in that
      It only takes one cop or one accident to put you in trouble.

    Awesome vid, nice to see the Photon in action! Great choice with CYC motor and BMW battery combo. I guess 12Ah should be decent capacity for 750w but when you start running it over 1000w you'll want more capacity to help with voltage sag. Also fyi I don't think they pronounce it "psych" motor, but it does sound pretty cool that way, heh.

They are infectious, honest, and informational. This one was a different topic. In that its evidence I am not just watching your videos because its about a surron, a toy I am lusting over. I watched intently on the mountaint bike conversion, which isn't anything I am going to do, or interested in. So what. Well, it was an interesting experiment in how natural and talented you are in providing content and making me want to watch, make me smile, and move on. Congrats to you on all of it.

    Awesome video. I am also a SoCal local. :) This is a great video on how to get started with the DIY electric mountain bike setup. I love Surron's but there is no way you are going to get away with riding one on the local mountain bike trails around here without getting a lot of complaints from mountain bikers and the cops. This setup solves the problem. Its still a mountain bike with the addition of the fast motor but keeping it stealth. That will get you on the trails without the harrasment.
    I just built up a full (Downhill) full suspension mountain bike with the mid-drive motor, 52v battery and it is FAST! So much fun, super quiet, looks like a mountain bike, no complaints. Top speed is around 35mph. It will climb any hill no problem. Bike model is the YT Tues. Best bike I ever built! Ton of fun!

    on the hill climb, extend the seat post so your weight is balanced better over the front and you will make it to the top easier

    This bike look awesome 🤩 I have a bike with a hub 1500w that goes 50km/h ,I know if I change the settings it can go much faster. Just throttle,no pedal Assist. Still learning wheelies 😆 next will be an electric motorcycle 🏍️
