Spokes for hub motor bike conversion kit

Q: I ordered a 750W hub motor last month. Now I am going to fix a 20 inch bike motor wheel. Are there standard spokes with nipples I can order on leaf motor online anywhere as order bike conversion kit ? If so- where ( what ’s the standard, exact measurements ) ? If I order from you, what would be the price? A: It’s very difficult to replace spokes for hub motor ,there are not standard ones. The length of spoke is lie on the dia.of hub motor and bike rim. Ours are double alloy rims,20″ rim: eyelet to eyelet is 360mm. If you order rim and spokes with nipples,just costs $30USD,but the shipment costs $100USD Because the vol. of bike rim is very large. If you don’t order bike rim, just order spokes with nipple, it’s very hard to done your bike kit. Why not order bike conversion kit directly ?
Another way, you order 20 inch bike motor wheel with rim and hub. But without rotor winding. When you receive this hub wheel, you should disconnect your hub motor, take the rotor winding out of your hub, and put into this 20 inch wheel. This is the best choice. Cost less, easier to solve your issue.
Q: I tried to take out a spoke and I was successful. I then tried to put the spoke back into the bike rim and I succeeded again. So I would like to order a set of spokes without the rim. How much would it cost?
A: The price of 1 set of spokes is $10USD; The price of shipment by EMS is $50USD (USA or Europe)
Total price:$60USD
Q: Yes, I’d like to go ahead and purchase it. To double check : – Are nipples included? – Spoke (nipples) are for 20″ rim (750W motor)? – How can I pay for it – PayPal ? What’s PayPal ID (email)?
A: I am not sure you can install them. We will send you a set of spokes (more than 36 pieces with nipples) You could pay on our website directly. www.leafmotor.com Our paypal account: sales@leafmotor.com

electric hub motor for motorcycle

Q: I am planning to install hub motor on my gasoline scooter. Basically I want my scooter to use gasoline or electric hub motor. My question is, if I install the electric hub motor on my scooter.

What will happen to the electric hub motor (motor is off) if I run my gasoline motor top speed of 120kph? Will the electric hub motor (even turned off ) be damaged because of higher wheel rpm on gasoline running top speed?

A: If max speed is less than 800RPM that is no problem for our hub motor.
What size of your wheel?
Too high speed will break the bearing.

Q: If I change the bearing to high speed bearings. Will the coils magnet inside will break? 17 inch rim.

A: Magnet and coils is no problem if you cut off electric so that No current between controller and motor when you use gasoline.
If No current, Not too hot. Magnet and coils is okay when 120kmh.
17 inch rim. I think you should use our 20 inch bike conversion kit.
Below leaf bike is our new site.

Q: I saw your youtube videos on your channel.
I prefer to install it on front wheel using a 17inch motorcycle wheel rim,so a hub motor is best. You can checkout my motorcycle channel youtube.com so that you have idea on what I do on my bikes.
What kind of hub motor can you suggest on me?

A: We recommend 20 inch front 48V 1000W hub motor with 160mm disk. The diameter of this electric hub motor tire is about 51cm. It’s brushless gearless motor and has enough power to climb on ebike. We found yours is motorcycle, it’s too heavy. If possible, please choose our 17 inch electric motorcycle motor. It’s very fit for your motorcycle. How about this 17 inch electric motor?

I just placed a hub motor kit order on leaf bike site

Paypal confirmed payment of $1201.00 USD for order Transaction ID: 9CG1909M41791512C
The other day I was trying to services when I decided to order a 20″ front hub motor wheel 48V 1000W custom bike conversion kit along with a 48V 20AH LiFe2PO4 battery. I chatted with a representative the other day about some questions about what was included with the electric bike conversion kit and that it would be suitable in the application of use on my 3 wheel recumbent tadpole trike. Your representative said you could include some items free of charge since my order is over $1000 USD.
I asked if the 48V 20AH lithium battery was just wrapped in blue shrink wrap as depicted or if it came in a locking metal case like the 12AH battery and he said that you would find a suitable key locking metal case for the 48V 20AH battery similar to the 12AH one and include that Free of charge.
I asked if the bike conversion kit included a torque arm since it was not listed in the items on the page and i thought that since it most would be required with a 1000w hub motor it should be. He said the kit would include 2 torque arms free of charge.
I see on the pages it appears that the black lightening is all black and the other styles in some kits has silver rings on the outside of the hub motor. The kit I am ordering looks like it is all black in the picture so I assume it is the new more powerful Black Lightening, but I would like to confirm before the item is shipped which style/model of hub motor this is.
Your representative also said you would include 2 of the 3 button switches, and since it is not clear whether the thumb throttle or twist throttle would be the most practical with my recumbent trikes steering you would include one of each free of charge.
