My 24" Kent SeaChange Cruiser Conversion - Electric Bike 48 Volt 500 Watt

I recently put together another Kent 26" SeaChange Cruiser conversion with a modest 350 watt 36 volt front wheel drive and it was a big hit with my friends. It rides great and gets up to 21 + MPH. It's just a tall bike with the luggage rack installed for shorter folks like myself. When I Iearned that Kent International made a smaller 24" "Kids and Small Adults" version of the SeaChange, I ordered it from Walmart and had it overnight for $128 plus tax. I am very imopressed with the quality of Kent bikes. I am always satisfied with what I get. I had the 48 v 500 watt front wheel drive wheel and a nice Hailong 13 Ah "kidney" battery already. I put front and rear V brakes on it and kept the stock coaster brake in place. It's a rigid frame bike but it's a delight to ride! It has nice acceleration and I hit a top speed of 24.9 miles per hour at one point! Not bad with a 24" wheel with a 48 v 500 w motor. This is my new favorite eBike build! The next one will sport a 1000 watt 48v. That one will need a rack for the battery on back. Stay tuned! ~ William Flying39
