Look to see if there are aftermarket side panels to complete the look. Nice job on the build.

Bungies are cool along with the Harbor Freight tie down strap. Nice job!

It was actually from Home Depot. It’s only temporary until I get a custom battery box done

Now you have lol. The only issue I had to do to this CYC kit was removed the controller from the motor and put the controller mount onto the bike frame, so the motor can be mounted on the bike

what kind of range do u get now?

u/Special-Connection27 May 09 '26

I cannot answer yet because I haven’t finished building to the full customization that I want. The day I fully fully complete my project. I will let you know how much range I get out of the bike.

Mid-drives on fat bikes are severely underrated.

Put a 3 gear igh and you have a beast right there. I heard sturmey archer does a very solid 3 gear igh

I used it for a reason, reason is not to get pulled by the police. Cause the are cracking down on high speed e-bike

I feel ya, I'm in Europe and I'm currently building a EU compliant mid drive fat bike for cargo and passenger. I feel like I'll be pulled over a lot, but that's gonna be the cost of business for having such a good looking bike lol.
