First long test run of my 24" mountain e-bike conversion in La Palma CA
After my first experience with e-bikes recently and only familiar with pedal assist, I set out to put together another one with a throttle on the cheap. I went with a budget friendly 24" Decathlon Rockrider ST100 mountain bike for $198 from Walmart, an AW electric bicycle front wheel conversion kit with a 36 volt 750 watt motor in the hub and a luggage rack on the back. The 36 volt 10Ah Lithium-Ion battery also came from Walmart. That was also $153.06. The bike is decent on it's own. No suspension though. The battery is marginal for a setup like this. The brakes are nominal for an eBike like this. I achieved a top speed of about 22 MPH on this project. Not bad. Definitely beats pedaling. This is a LONG video and not much commentary from yours truly. I started in the bike trail around the corner from my place in Buena Park and rode through the city of La Palma where I grew up. I rode the trail until it ended at the end of the city limits. Said Hi to my folks and road back until my battery gave out. I believe I got about 6.10 miles at maximum throttle most of the way with having to slow down for pedestrains and admiring a pretty girl walking her big dog. It was a fun day and even though my eBike has its limitations, it's an intriguing form of recreation and I live in the ideal state for that. I am hooked on the prospects. Next time I plan to have one of my DJI drones active track me on my journey. ~ Flying39
