- After months of work, it's finished!
I'm super happy with how it came out, from the custom disc brake setup (this bike never came with disc brakes) to the plethora of 3D printed accent parts. I really like how the paint job came out, the red accents tying in the cargo bins it all just works. This may not be everyone's cup of tea when it comes to aesthetics but I appreciate the more industrial type looks.
As for the bike functionally it works great! It's a super smooth ride thanks to the more upright and laid-back riding position of a cruiser bike. There aren't a lot of cruiser ebike builds out there, but this is one of if not my favorite style of bike frame as the comfort is unmatched (maybe by a recumbent, but I haven't ridden one of those yet). I know the frame style isn't as popular as say a downhill or mountain bike frame, which are nice too, but cruisers will always be cool in my opinion.
This is one of the lowest power ebikes I have ever made at "only" 1000W, it still goes fast, up to 27MPH which is plenty of speed for a bicycle, and this is more designed to be a hauler than a speed demon. The range is quite nice with the 14AH pack, I didn't do any specific range testing however I did go on a few 2 hour bike rides and still had 30-40% left in the battery. Plus the battery compartment is big enough to house another battery, also you have a ton of racks and storage if you wanted to go even further.
I'm really pleased with the end results of this bike, however I must say that from the inception this project is ultimately a failure. Not because it doesn't work or look good, if anything it's because it looks too good. This was supposed to be just a "beater" type trash bike that I didn't really care about if it got scraped up or stolen, but I've spent way too much time on it and it looks too nice. Plus it took me a very long time to make, this was supposed to be something I threw together in a weekend (or two) but ended up taking me months, with way too much thought and care going into all of the functional and aesthetic details. It's really a problem and I will eventually make a "trash" bike, but for now this is what I have.
I have a ton more projects in the works, and some of them will be much more extreme. Thank you guys so much for watching and I can't wait to show you more and more creations.

Really good job the way you've put this ebike together. Awesome cruiser for getting around on. Blown away with the amount of work you put into this project using a shopping cart and your imagination. Thanks for sharing 😎👍
Thanks so much for the feedback! It was a long time coming but finally got it done 🍻🍻
You can take the bike inside the store since it's already half shopping cart! lol Awesome work!
😅 True that! Thanks so much man!!
Nice work as always. Sorry to hear you had an illness. Hope you're feeling better and make a complete and speedy recovery
Thanks man, much appreciated! I'm 100% again now thankfully 🍻🍻
Once again making me want to turn my old broken bike into something cool like this!
Hope you're feeling much better and awesome job on this build 😁👍🏽
Thank you so much! Yes, almost 100% now, you should totally breathe new life into an old bike 👍
these builds are always so epic, good work again
Thanks so much man!! 🍻🍻
That is a killer cargo!
Thanks man!!
A long time coming and it is a masterpiece! I love it! Great job as usual!
Thanks so much man, much appreciated 🍻🍻
Now that’s a real cargo bike. Excellent work. I’ve been watching you, take the challenge and win. Keep it going bro
Thank you so much man! I appreciate it. I have more projects on the way, thank you for watching 🍻🍻
Cruiser bike is lower rider DIY community just my favorite( switch out lower diameter wheels"20"" and put a suspension or hydraulics is my jam)😁🖤And of course no brakes we're just cruising🤣🤣
Sounds awesome man! Thank you 🍻👍 Don't need brakes when you're going slow 😅
@@hightech-lowlife Nothing wrong with useful garbage and just straight-up garbage is the eye of the builder or engineer to see if everything is useful or just melt and burn it down to turn into something else 🤣
Awesomw build, will takie inspiration from this one👍
Thanks so much! 🍻🍻
Cool bike, cool dude.
Thanks so much!! 🍻🍻
I absulutely love how much thought you put into all the bikes you build. (Just a nitpick: I think your rear brake rotor is the wrong way round.)
Thanks so much man! 🍻🍻 I appreciate the lookout, I'll check it out and swap it 👍
nice one, good work ;)
Thank you so much for watching! 🍻🍻
Sick
Thanks man! 🍻🍻
That bike is great. I would definitely ride it the way it is.( nice torque arms) did you have a change of heart😊I have a pretty fast bike, but I usually only go 25 or 28 so I can make it to work on one battery.
Thanks so much! You like my torque arms? 😎 😅 I think 20-30 is as fast as you want to go on a "regular" bike frame, safer that way anyway 🍻🍻
🔥
Thank you! 🍻👍
ты оставил 3 звёзды спереди,будет спадать цепь на таком,нужно хотя бы поставить передний переключатель,но использовать его как успокоитель,не пользоваться,но он будет держать цепь
Вы по-прежнему можете вручную выбрать передаточное число. Я всегда снимаю передний переключатель со своих велосипедов, никогда не было проблем с цепями. Переключатель фактически не касается цепи, когда вы не переключаете передачи, и уж точно не для того, чтобы «удерживать цепь на месте». Кроме того, мощность имеет прямой привод, она не проходит через цепь, большая часть мощности, которую воспринимает цепь, - это мощность педали.
It looks really good man! I know the top speed is more than enough for you, but with the added weight of having cargo in the bins do you worry it'll feel too slow?
Thanks man! Nah, should only drop it down a couple mph 👍
@@hightech-lowlife gotcha! Well it's so nice to see it finished, and hope you feel better! Any plans in the works for new ebike builds?
@@bbllrstv13 Thanks man! Oh yeah, lots of new builds in the works 👍
@@hightech-lowlife hell yeah! Are you still planning to do a video about wiring? Been looking forward to seeing how you wire in those led light bar headlights!
Why didn't you go with a 750w geared hub instead? More torque, less energy consumption...
Direct drive is the best 👍I will be upgrading this to a 1500W motor and doubling the battery capacity.
