Motor controller with LCD-003 from Leaf Bike

48V 1000W-1500W-2000W, 36V 250W-500W-750W, 24V 250W Motor controllers with LCD-003 from Leaf Bike are used to drive 8-9-10-12-13-14-16-17-18-20-22-24-26-27.5-700C-28-29er inch hub motor bike wheels.

How to set max speed?
If you feel 20 inch or 24 inch,26 inch, 700c, 28 inch, 29 inch hub motor kit is too fast,please set it to be low speed.
* Press “sw/middle button” from LCD more than 2 seconds,then LCD will display.
* Press “up & down button” together more than 2 sconds until 72 is flashing ( 72 is kmh, if you hope works 20mph / 32kmh, press “down” to be 32)
* Press “sw/middle” button one time to save,then 24 is flashing.. (24 is hub motor wheel size. Don’t set)
* Press “sw/middle” button one time to save,then kmh or mph is flashing..
* Press “sw/middle” button one time to save,then press “sw/middle” button more than 2 seconds until be back.

Turn throttle,motor will work max speed as your setting.

—————
There is a “ 5 or 4 or 3 or 2 or 1 or 0” on the Left side of LCD.
* Be “0” – throttle & pedal assist NOT work.
* Be “1” – throttle works (If install pedal assist, pedal about 3 circels,then can drive motor to work)
* Be “2” – throttle works (If install pedal assist, pedal about 2.5 circels,then can drive motor to work)
* Be “3” – throttle works (If install pedal assist, pedal about 2 circels,then can drive motor to work)
* Be “4” – throttle works (If install pedal assist, pedal about 1.5 circels,then can drive motor to work)
* Be “5” – throttle works (If install pedal assist, pedal about 1 circels,then can drive motor to work)

If NOT install that pedal assist,ONLY use throttle to drive motor. But Should be 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5.(Be 0,turn off throttle)

——————————–
How to use three button switch?
1.We cut off that blue wire.It’s for reverse. If reconnect this blue wire.
This yellow button be left / middle,29 inch bike motor kit works forward. Be right side,hub motor works bacwkard / reverse…

2.Green button is used to control cruise, while electric bike motor is running,also over some speed,example: over 1/3 max speed,at this time,press green button one time,then loose throttle,LCD display “C”,motor will works the same speed. Re-press this green button one time or press brake lever or turn throttle to max, electric bike motor will stop.

3.Red button be up,regen on. Be down,regen off. This regen is not strong.Only while braking with a little regen.

Questions regarding your DIY conversion kits

Q:I assume your electric hub motor bike conversion kits are speed limited, consider for example your 250W 36V hub motor bike conversion kits. Usually it seems the speed limit it set to something like 25 kmph, or so.

I building a custom bicycle and I am interested in knowing if this speed limit can be configured to be higher. I guess I am thinking this possibly is the case if one can simply enter a lower wheel size when configuring the controller. Could this be there case, or is there may be some other way to do this using your kit?

Also, are you by any chance the same company as leaf bike? And if so, does this answer also apply to the e-bike conversion kits sold under that name, e.g. their 250 W 24 V conversion kits?

A: Yes, our controller has speed limit.
There is max speed display on our leafbike.com site.
We set LCD as wheel size.For 12inch,14inch,16inch,18inch,20inch,24inch,26inch,27inch,27.5inch,700c,28inch and 29 inch..
For example: our site write: max 70kmh ( You can limit max speed under 70kmh,from min 6kmh to max 70kmh)
our site write: max 24kmh ( You can limit max speed under 24kmh,from min 6kmh to max 24kmh)

Q: Thanks for the info. Just so that I understand correctly, let me ask these questions:

For example, considering your DIY e-bike kit 700c hub motor kit front wheel, Item ID #LBCK700C24250FM”. Our your web-site, says that it is speed limited to 36.1 kmh (actually used to say something like 25 kmh, you increased it?). Though this speed seems sufficient (now) I still wonder if I can modify this speed limit in some way. Say, if I configure the controller to a wheel size smaller than 700c. If that it possible I am thinking the max speed would be increased. Is that something that is user configurable, or it is hard coded into the controller that it is for a 700c wheel?

Is it also maybe the case that the controller that one get if one buys, say , this kit also works with some more powerful motors? But maybe it is limited to the operating voltage of 24 V?

Do you have recommendations as to if one should go with, say, a 24V or a 36V system?

Finally, I note on the web-site I list above, seems that you are showing the motor performance table for a 36V motor. Could it be that it should show the performance of the attached motor data for a 24V motor?

Just another question here.

For your 36V 250W front wheel DIY kit, the max speed is listed as 26.3 kmh or 16.4 mph. This seems that it can be a bit limiting for some jurisdictions. Is it maybe the case that you have increased this max speed also to 36.1 kmh as listed for the 24V version? And, also, here, can I configure it for a lower bike speed to make it go faster or is there some other way to increase this speed limit?

By the way, I see the advantage with the 36 V systems. You get more watt-hours in your battery. Seems like better choice for my use case.

hub motor selection and rim width.

I am looking to build an e-bike, starting with the Mongoose Dolomite. 5000W is probably too much, I see you offer 1500W hub motor kits, but I did not see any information about 4inch wheels for the fat tire bikes.
Do you have a 26 inch bike motor kit for the 26 inch fat tire bikes, rear drive, 1500W or more?
With a 9 speed cassette is there enough room for the hub motor in a 135mm drop out ?
I see now that my Shimano 9 speed rear cassette should be the same width as a Shimano 7 speed. It is the spacing of each gear that is different. However, if I am to purchase your kit, I would need you to supply the 9 speed freewheel because I assume your hub motors use freewheels and not cassettes. Right now my bike is a cassette.

Unless it is possible to supply this bike motor in the kit instead:

I should be able to mount my cassette to this motor. Can we do that instead?

This is no longer for fat tire bike so please ignore the first email about the fat tire kit.

It is for a regular mountain bike so no need to worry about 3 or 4″ tires. I have regular mountain bike tires, 26 x 2″ right now. Once I do the electric bike conversion kit, I may switch to more narrow road tires like 1.5″ or 1.75″ so the regular double wall mountain bike rim is fine.

So I made a new order with the individual parts and I excluded the brakes because I do not need them. However, it came out to be a little more expensive than selecting the kit but, I would like a double walled 26″ rim added to the hub motor please.

Just wondering what type of connectors come on the motor controller? I am ordering my battery and need to know what kind of connectors it has. Do you have any pictures or description?

Interested In Buy This Hub Motor

Q: I am very happy in viewing your electric bike rear direct drive with
26 inch hub motor wheel item ID # LBM26481500RN. My e-bike setup is 60 volts. Do you
manufacture 26×2.0 inch wheel with 60 volts 1500W rear direct drive
hub motors?
Secondly, also can you fit the bike motor in a fully BLACK rim without any
silver around the rim so it can match with my front wheel because I
use hydraulic disc brakes?
If there is anything that you need to ask me that I am missing, please
feel free to ask, that the purchase moves smoothly and correctly.

A: This 26 inch 48V 1500W rear hub motor wheel can work at 60V.Also,we can spoke this hub motor with all black color rim.

Q: Just a few more questions before I buy, because everything needs to be correct.
Can this bike motor fit any size frame bike?
Is it suitable for regenerative braking?
Does it have three phase hall sensors?
Can it fit 8 gear cogs? Which I am using at the moment with my old motor.
Please tell me the total length of the motor axle from end to end
because I’m using a rear rack ?

A: This 26 inch bike motor is fit for 135mm rear dropout. If your motor controller with regenerative braking function, will have it. It’s three phase with three hall sensors. One cable with 9 wires: heavy yellow, heavy blue, heavy green wires are motor phase wires. Thin red +5V, thin black / GND. Thin yellow, blue & green three wires are connected to three hall sensor.
It can fit for max 7 speed for 135mm dropout. If your frame can be larger, about 140mm,install 8 speed on this rear hub motor is no problem.
Total length of this shaft is 210mm.

question about one of your front hub motor for my electric bike

Q: I am interested in the 20 inch 48V 1000W hub motor electric bike kit – front wheel but I need to know what the front dropout size this hub motor wheel will fit. I have a small folding bike that has a front dropout of 74mm and need a 20 inch hub motorized wheel that can fit it. Any help you can give me would be great.

A: One of our 20 inch 48v 1000w hub motor (all black color bike motor) is fit for the spacing of 100mm front dropout.
The other 20 inch electric bike motor 48v 1000w (black color with silver motor) is fit for the spacing of 90mm front dropout.

Q: Do you have anything that can fit a 74-80mm dropout? It does not have to be 1000w. I am now looking for a 36v 250w electric hub motor kit?

A: Generally nearly all standard front fork is 100mm dropout. So all of our front electric hub motors are fit for 90-100mm.

Does your front fork is 80mm dropout?
Sometimes,when your wheel is on the bike,if you measure it the dropout may 80mm, because of two side screw nuts are be tighten.If you remove this front wheel from front fork,the dropout may be bigger,actual it also standard 100mm dropout.

Could you take a picture with your bike?

missing thread of hub motor shaft

It took a little work since spacing was tight, but I get the hub motor wheel inside of my forks. When I went to put the nuts on the axle, I saw that the bolt on the wired side is cracked. It is missing almost all of its thread which means I cannot but the nut on to hold the wheel in place. Essentially, I cannot use it at all. Please see the picture of the cracked bolt.

I was wondering if you know how I am able to repair this hub motor ‘s shaft or if I can somehow get some help on this? I spent a lot to get it all here and it is a little upsetting that a small chip is preventing me from using it at all. I’m not asking for a whole new electric hub motor wheel to be sent, just hoping I can get this bike conversion kit up and hub motor running. Please advise.

If possible, add some washers,then can solve it.

Do it as below:
Disconnect that white big plug,then can take off screw nut and add some washers into.
*. Look for a pin
*. There are five wires in this white big plug
*. Press each wire’ s pin, then the pin will out of white big plug.

I had thought I got bike conversion kit to work but there just is not enough room to to secure the nut properly. Please let me know what will be the best way to have this resolved. Sorry for the inconvenience on this.

Add washer or torque arm or lock washer.
