Yose Power Waterproof 500W 26 Inch Ebike Conversion Kit with 48V 13Ah Battery for Freewheel 26" Electric Bike Rear Wheel, Electric Bicycle Hub Motor Kit, LED Display, Installation Tool

It took me a while as an unskilled person to build this. You'll need to have a little bit of bicycle know-how and some bicycle tools to build it well. It's important to measure your dropouts, or do like I did and buy a steel bike you can bend to suit your whims. I personally recommend covering your wires to improve durability, but they seem sturdy. The connections are color coded, they do things that make sense in ways that make sense. There is a very very long line from the battery to the controller, which is far too much for most bicycles, but makes this a uniquely universal build. I may eventually get that cabling cut down but for now it's zipped to my frame in a coil. In fact, I would recommend anybody who buy this kit buy bigger and better zip ties than it comes with for build quality. If they were going to cheap out though, that's a fine place to have done it.The water bottle tube style battery is *pretty long* and it may be a challenge to fit it to a bike. I ended up drilling and tapping an extra water bottle hole, which was about a twenty dollar build expense and some anxious learning. On some builds it'll be wisest to build it onto the rack, which, the kit is very accommodating to on the whole. These are easy cords to get extensions for online if you need one.It is not immediately clear by the instructions how to access the menus of this bike and change settings. That's a drawback, but the kind of thing you can just sort out on google.I am having an absolute blast on this, and I swear to the gods if it fails me in any way you will be the first to know. 10/10 would recommend. I may even come back and add a front wheel kit to it to make it an absolute beast someday, and I'll ask yose for the parts.

I bought the 500 W Yose Power eBike conversion kit to convert an old mountain bike. (I got the free hub version, not the cassette.) The kit arrived extremely well packaged with all the parts necessary. I guess I didn't look closely at the pictures, but it also comes with a crank puller, a free wheel removal tool, and a bottom bracket tool. I used my own, but it's a nice touch that they include them.The kit installed pretty easily. All the issues I had were due to my old bike - a stuck bottom bracket and a grip shifter that broke. I installed the whole shebang - the brake levers, Peddle Assist Sensor and everything. I did purchase a Grin eBike double Bob mount for the battery to make the mounting more secure and also to provide more mounting options. I wouldn't have been able to mount the battery inside the bike’s main triangle without it. I also bought an eBikeling torque arm to protect the rear dropouts, but I am not sure if it's really necessary. There are asymmetrical washers supplied with the kit that fit into the rear dropouts on both sides of the bike. They seem to work like the torque arm does. The video on the Amazon listing helped a lot with installation. The paper manual wasn't all that helpful. (Note: I installed a 7 speed freewheel on the hub, so I had to buy that too. I’ve been having no trouble with it.)The cables are long, so I had to zip tie a lot on the frame. They provide a bag that velcros into the triangle, and I used that to hold a long loop of the cable that goes to the LCD display.The little handlebar-mounted controller/LCD display has an on/off switch, and you can push it on the top and the bottom of its face to change the power output of the motor. There are five power settings that you see as little squares across the top. Speed is displayed as the big number in the middle. I think that the battery charge is displayed across the bottom. It’s pretty minimal, but I like the easy way you can change the power output.I just went on a ten mile ride last night and it was super fun. I tried riding with the PAS disconnected - I wasn't sure if I wanted to use it. However, with it disconnected, it seemed like I could not control the power output with the handlebar display, so the thumb throttle just went from 0 to 500 W, I guess. It was a little difficult to control the speed with the throttle that way. I reconnected the PAS, and I really enjoyed how the bike rode. I could easily ramp the power up and down by clicking on the display. When I was going up hills, I could feel the motor start to push me up when my speed decreased. It was a blast. I never went to the max setting (5 squares). At 4 squares (80% of full power), the bike rode faster than I thought I should be going on our community bike path. I found that I adjusted the output power quite a lot – like when passing pedestrians. I think if I was riding in traffic I would adjust it down at stoplights and back up once I got going. Maybe I’ll get used to the acceleration.Oh yeah, the battery… The battery seems to function fine. I charged it up overnight, and I don’t think that my first ride drained it significantly. I pedaled a lot!I’m very happy with this purchase so far. I think the LCD display is a little minimal, but maybe that’s a good thing. I’m concerned with the durability of the parts. The hub seems well made from what I can tell from looking at the outside. The other parts are little flimsy feeling – like the thumb throttle and PAS. I think that only time will tell if the battery is a good one.

Did not work at first, was vary upset! Customer service sent a new throttle! Took 3 weeks due to Chinese new year! ( not there fault) Works better than I imagined! Was upset after paying $500 for a product that i needed for work that didn't work! Now it's up and going, and I mean going! It's fast! Cut my time to work from 30 minutes on my old 350watt ebike to 15 minutes on this one! It goes 25 miles an hour, I got myself a helmet do to the speed! Customer support is not the best, probably due to translation issues, and a way different time zone, but they did what was needed to fix my problems! Had a small dent in rim (could be from shipping)but other than that it is a great deal, can't beat the price and performance! I have to turn the power down! Yes it's adjustable! Can set speed to what ever speed works for you! I highly recommend at this price, and as to date it works vary vary well. Just know this thing is fast I've crashed at 15 mph and fractured a few things, 15 mph don't sound bad tell you hit the ground trust me it's not fun, just be careful maybe get a helmet for this thing, I did, i would rather look foolish with a helmet on then, crash this thing at top speed and really get hurt! It's fast but fun fast! Buy this thing it's worth it, for fun and work! Well worth the money! Especially with gas prices these days! Sorry for the first negative review, it didn't work at first and I was angry when I wrote the review! Small problem fixed now and vary happy!! Thank you!!

Sadly I'm not happy with this kit. The peddle assit is dangerous, you accidently hit the peddle the bike shoots forward at full speed. Had to disable it. The thumb throttle is also hard to control the speed. one bump and you are flying. Also hurt my wrist trying to keep control of speed. The plus side steep hill climb is a breeze. Im a heavy guy and no peddle required to go up hills.
