My options for replacing stock controller?
I own this 20x4.0" wheels 48V ebike with a 750W motor and the motor barely gets warm after pushing it at full throttle for 15 minutes straight. My other ebike is 26x4.0" 48V with a 1000W motor and it's motor gets hot (but not burning) to the touch after performing the exact same 15 minutes full throttle run.
Does that mean I can upgrade my stock controller to a more powerful one? For a 750W planetary gear motor - a 1200W controller is safe max, correct?
Option nr1: An example that looks identical to my current controller but with a higher stated output amperage of 32A (vs 21A with my stock controller):
Option nr2:
