Hi! I'm Chris I have been working as a mechanic for cheap bikes for 6 years already. I have created this channel to share my experience and give you valuable insider advice. I can help you choose a perfect bike on a budget.
I know from my experience you could go and pay £4000 for a lovely Japanese bike or you could pay £2000 for something of similar quality.
What people don't know is that most small-capacity Japanese bikes are actually made in China. You can check it out for yourself.

Thought for a second the driver of the bin lorry was going to start going round.. Nice project, looks fun..
Lol
I think that this is about as much fun as you can have with your clothes on.
Flippin eck that thing flies, i bet some of those car drivers faces were a picture as you came hurtling towards them.
On the downside your taste in music is pants ; )
All the best.
Lol i know its not 100% my vup of tea but it is royalty free music most of the times when im riding around the vilage its all smiles 😄
Great build! I did something similar but with 4 lead acid batteries. Did you have any problems with understeer?
yes lots of problems my next one is going to be a 125cc drift mobility scooter that will have no steering lol but i will add that to my other channel
Excellent. You could get a mobility scooter racing series going.
all the other people making them up on CZcams put a lot of money into them I'm not willing to do that
2 I want to add a stand alone 12v system to run automotive parts off the shelf . lights lots of lights inner & outer, with what I call god light to deal with drivers who neglect to drop their high beamsin a timely manner, air horn for road use, heating & cooling systems. I figure a hair dryer for heating not sure for cooling.
i wouldn't bother with a 12 v battery just add something like this www.amazon.co.uk/24V-12V-Converter/s?k=24V+to+12V+Converter
Hey Chris, could you help me please, how many miles does lexmoto aspire 50 do with full tank?
99.6 mpg with a 12 litre tank works out about 260 miles to the tank
Hey Chris, Is the Atto Sport Moving Life able to be modified to go faster?
you could over volt it if you use it for mobility i would leave it alone because overvolting the motor could break it
I'm looking to get a Moped or ebike to get around town.
First are Mopeds safe?
Can you please recommend any great reliable mopeds?
My current favourite are the NIU NQI GT and the lexmoto aura 125.
due to the current crisis and the cost of fuel the electric bikes are looking a bit better i have ridden the lexmoto aura they seem to be a nice bit a lot of people are using them for delivery bikes
hello @ridingreviews ! I have a scooter with a VOL 24.0 Vdc 300W motor, with 2 12V 12Ah acid batteries and a DR50-b01 dynamic controller. What change can I make to improve and increase the final speed? Thanks
you could try adding a different controller one of the after market DC motor controller with out a restrictor on they are every ware the controller you have here is the mechanical manual for that www.dynamiccontrols.com/sites/default/files/2018-05/GBK52040%20R-series%20Installation%20Manual%20Issue%209.pdf
Experience 100% I can do so much more than most of the people I know who have qualifications including mechanics I have helped with motorcycles who lack quality and development nowadays due to our poor system missing out on potential geniuses. My story was I was misdiagnosed and had ADHD and autism so I missed out on achieving good grades in school now I’m just another person in the shadows doing things like this without recognition.
I believe we are all born to do a job but we live in a world where you pick the job from a list and do it regardless of your ability because on paper your “qualified” motivated by the education system to achieve a well paid job and not because you are a skilled craftsmen like it was back in the day
The education system is designed to keep people in low paid 9 to 5, and the internet doesn't help people to be able to figure things out by themselves stay stron stay unique and like me a little weird 😀 😉
Great video! What would be the simplest way of increasing my Quingo's speed from 4 to 8mph please?
They are restricted by the controller. You can get a bigger controller. Some have a wire on them, and you disconnect to remove the restriction
Hello, I own a Scooterpac Cabincar: 24 volt system, I installed 2 100Ah lithium lifepo batteries from Dakota (US). Do you have any idea how to make it go faster?
this one has a 4 mph and a 8mph setting if you want to go faster than that you would need to change the controller as that is the limiting factor
great video!
thanks for watching
I need help with the following issues. 1 I plan to add 3 or more sets of batteries to offer longer range & from what you said in video faster speeds could be gained by kicking in a second of these battery set when needed to reach roadway speeds & only use a standard set for lower & indoors users . So I need a wiring diagram to hook up & control these features. please
sorry i don't have a wiring diagram as a lot of these controllers are different if you want to add more battery's in series for mor speed you will need a different controller
Great Job Bro. Well, I’m not sure if I got that. But from a few months I’m trying to higher the speed of my Mobility TGA Vita. I already know those original controllers I cannot do anything. So, I bought a speed controller of 36v 1000W but I’ll exchange for a 48v 1000W.
I have a question.
If I connect the third battery to total Volts of 36v and I connect this controller that I have at the moment, it going to be a bit faster or not?
You are the expert so if you tell me yes would works.
I’ll exchange the 36v for 48v like you did.
But this speed controller of 48v 1000w it’s enough.
Or I would need higher speed controller like 48v 2000W?
I have 2 x 12v 75 amp on the scooter and 2 x 12v 50amp Extras
It’s all I have home right now.
Please let me know your thoughts
Appreciate
that will be better I'm sure but you will need to sort out a new break as the old one is controlled by the controller
awesome x
Thank you! Cheers!
Hello. I am looking for a more powerful motor for my old GoGo scooter that will bolt on to the original transaxle. I upgraded the batteries, adding two 12-volt 12-amp batteries in parallel with the original two, this yielded a lot of added torque, but very little speed gain. I am getting two 17mm hub adapters so i can install larger wheels for added speed. But upgrading the motor will likely give me a lot more speed gain. I can handle the electronic changes for a higher amperage motor, brush o brushless, but i haven't found a motor that will replace mine without going to a clutch and chain axle or replacing the whole transaxle. can you help? Thanks.
Im pretty sure you wont find a bigger motor that will bolt straight in as the motor would have been developed for that scooter i imagine the motor will have a restrictor on it someware as all of them have one someware bigger wheels will make it faster but you will lose talque
Maybe u can check our products,www.metromobility.com
Golden Companian 440 want more speed. Removal of speed limiter (HOW)

Cool as a kid i had a riding lawnmower i put a 50cc suzuki engine on for a toy (less the mower deck)
I could get a lawn mower but i have no ware yo use it
okay boss You have a new fan. so did I understand you to have said that if I use 48v rather than the 24v that my mobility scooter runs on stock that this unit will be faster? will it get anymore range ? I ask because at the moment my scooter is mostly just for fun and grocery runs @ the big stores but it is only a matter of time till it will be all they will let my crippled half blind but drive which is a far cry from The large commercial trucks that I made my Living in. so any thing I can do to get a bit more speed & range out of it I'm all for it. I have been as You put it gathering many odd bits to build a body for it to protect from nature & be safer with all lights,horn & other comforts. just bought a vehycle bucket high back seat to replace the stock 1 because it gives better support . well I will be watching be safe
hello not stock the motor will handle the extra power but the controller prob wont and most controllers are limited so it wont make a difference on speed and prob damage your scooter also if it did work you would probably get a bit more range
Hi I got mine built using 14 front tooth rear 46 200w motor 60v battery. The thing is not as fast as I thought it would be it won't pull me up a slight gradient. On the flat it's OK but still not fast. Sprockets and chain are 428 pitch. Could this be the problem wrong gearing.
I think you have over geared it maybe try first changing the front sprocket for a 12 tooth that will be the cheapest solution
@@Ridingreviews thanks i will do might drop the rear one too after
so I'm back again to re watch this video for I think my 3rd go. Anyway since My last message I have been blessed to have bought a $5,000.00 Afikim C4 for only $100.00 great x mass I also added a micro 3 wheeler so I now find myself in possession of 3 scootz. with a grand total out of pocket to buy all $460.00 so yes I must have been a right good bobby last year. As I may or may not have mentioned in my last post. these will soon become my only independent form of transit. So I've been working to build a add on rear box so I can still get all the way across town & back & at a safe speed so as to not be run over in traffic . So as you offered to give help, what I want to do is add a set of full sized grocery cart to the rear of my scooter The C4 by turning them back to the back of the scoot using the rear hitch as my attachments point. So I need the following . 1 I want to add several extra sets of batteries onto the lower shelf of the 2nd cart which encloses the 1rst cart when on road. this is needed so that when I get to stores I can remove the 2nd or outer cart & park it at the service desk while I shop with the 1rst or inner cart that is open topped for easy of loading & removed any worries on the merchants part that I might try to steal with the closed 2nd outer box. The outer box will have bicycle wheels & tires to carry most if not all of the added weights.
that sounds fine to me making the scooter go for a longer distance isn't a problem you just need to add more battery's in parallel no real modification needed but for more speed you will need more battery's in series and the stock controller wont be able to handle it
@@Ridingreviews so what if I was to add 2 sets of extra batteries to the unit 1 in parallel & 2 in series and upgrade the controler. would that be possible? I mean I only need the extra speed while on main roads the distance is the more pressing issue .
So mobility scooters are just set at factory and you can make it go faster.
But I’d just say buy a better one and it is a less risk for messing something up.
My grandad wants a faster one. I’d want to make his faster but I wouldn’t wanna mess it up
i agree in the uk the mobility scooters are limited to 4mph path 8mph road without doing some heavy modification it isn't possible to make them go faster
@@Ridingreviewsyea I was riding my electric bike…it goes pretty fast. And this old dude riding he must’ve been going 20+ obviously not faster than me but he’s obviously rigged it up.
Man, i'm your fan, please advise how can i make my mobility scooter faster, its only 8mph, i just bought the Confi Liberator 2021.
Would you help?
thanks for watching with a mobility scooter that is needed for mobility I would leave it but if it is just a plaything the best thing you can do is get a higher-powered controller and motor you could get away with a slightly more powerful controller
Won't running 48v through a 24volt motor eventually burn it out?
eventually yes but this is a 48v motor
3 When this idea first came to I was watch video on trailor build ideas & methods And it came to me as an ex long haul commercial driver who learned to live out of a trucks sleeper. That by using this cart in cart design it could be possible ( even if very micro ) to by properly designing & building these carts I could potentially provide sleeping space for 1 person. I see this being possible by cutting & re configuring what will be the rear of the 1rst carts foot or narrow end to also have a working tail gate design hinging from top & or bottom I could leave the cart just barely inter lockef to form the baskets into a sleep area. Thus what I've named a hobo RV was born. ( possible very transient homeless shelter that could be used for instant bedroom at night with under shelf storage or other use able space.
there are some nice bike trailers out there that are designed by youtubers to sleep in with solar panels really small but do the job
An idea for your next project.....build a lightweight sidecar for one of your MGB Fantasy scooters. Check out some of the Phillipino youtubes; they do great sidecars.
lol good idea but i don't own any scooters

The issue I have is battery related, ok my control unit is 48v. I have a 36v lithium battery for my kids electric mx bike
How can I add the extra 12v to be able to use the scooter I'm building ?
It should work with 36v you just wont get alot of speed it isnt ideal but you can add a lead acid battery with the same ampage and voltage as the others just be carefull of inballanced charging
I think my controller has a low voltage cut out at like 41v
@@modchop3537 if it is a lithium controller it should cut of at 44v with a max charge of 52v
It's a vevor 48v 1800w brushless dc controller, no mention of lothium on it. I cant add a picture to my comments for some reason
@@modchop3537 you carnt add pictures if you have any questions you can email me at chris@ridingreviews.co.uk
Can I add lithium ion batteries to the motor on my mobility scooter was running on two 12v 15amp lead acid before can motor take it or do I need to replace it also thanks for Great video and the inspiration to do something I been thinking of for ages 👍 superb mate ☮💯👊👍🏴❤🤍💙
so this one has 1 lead acid and 3 lithium ion battery's on it so yes you can use lithium but don't let them go to 0 % or they will die try and add a low voltage cut off switch thanks for watching
How long will it last with 48 volts
Depends on the ah of the 48v battery
I'm going to use a 36-48v 1000w speed controller....
I can't find many other's who are doing a mobility scooter conversion in detail on CZcams....
It would be GREATLY APPRECIATED if you could explain yours in full detail please....
(And a link if anyone who reads this is doing one 🙏)

This is a 48v 1600w 100 ahbatterys what details do you need

Thank you...
I'm a builder and in the last hour or so it's just clicking into place for me 🤪
Thanks 👍
As an electrical engineer I wouldn't advise double in the voltage of any motor
The motor on that is 48 im have a large 72v 21ah battery could use that
@@Ridingreviews yes true, well done good fun project.
what would happen if you ran 24v in a 12v mobility scooter?
5050 chance it will blow the controller

@Riding reviews the mower has a 12volt led acid battery and a alternator that discharges 14 volts. The mower runs on gas for the blades and electric to make it mobile.
