eZeebike electric bicycle conversion kit
Using the same powerful and reliable electric motor and battery system found on all of the eZeebike range, the eZee kit converts your bicycle into a state-of-the-art electric bicycle. Installation can be done in 2 hours with basic DIY skills and a set of bike tools. However, we always recommend that this work is carried out or at least checked by a competent bicycle mechanic for the best ride possible. We can install this ebike conversion kit for you at Glow Worm Bicycles, conditional upon the bicycle being fit for conversion, which depends on some factors such as size, shape and mechanical condition of the bicycle.
We used this ebike conversion kit very successfully on our Kona Ute cargo ebike conversion, riding all the way from Canberra to Melbourne for Ausbike through rain and frost without a hitch. More details about the ride here. Some more information about our e-bike conversions in general is here and an old blog post about the pros and cons of retrofitting versus buying a complete electric bike is here. Also, plenty of photos of conversions done with this kit on our Flickr conversion page.
Some Specifications:
Motor
Geared Drive 5:1 Planetary gear hub motor drive gives high torque output.
Steel sun and ring gears
Wheel Assembly
Hub Motor is already built into the front wheel. The rim is black, CNC machined and double walled and uses high quality 13G stainless spokes.
The Front Electric Hub Motor has a 6-hole ISO disc mount and 180mm rotor, so this kit is disc brake compatible.
Puncture resistant Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyre with reflective side walls provided on motor wheel. We can provide a matching Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyres for your rear wheel as well, for better rolling performance, fewer punctures and higher uniformity on the converted ebike.
20", 26" and 700C front wheel options available.
V brake bicycles can use this ebike conversion kit. Simply ignore or remove the disc rotor.
Compatibility
Pedal Assist or full e-Bike configurations are both available. Speed limiters are also available.
Battery is attached underneath the rear carrier rack (supplied) as in the photo of the Dahon above. You can also have a battery slide on top of a rear seat post clamp carrier rack for those bikes that can't fit normal pannier racks (such as soft tail mountain bikes) or finally, the simple, one size fits all solution - the battery in a waterproof bag. This last configuration allows use of the 37V 14Ah lithium battery for this conversion kit.
Controllor:
Waterproof, Self Diagnostic Military grade conformal coating, potted and sealed aluminum casing. LED light codes for quick troubleshooting
Battery:
Lithium Ion 370 Wh battery 37V 10Ah with Battery Management System (BMS): 3.1 kgs with casing. Smart and quick top up with 4A battery charger. The 37V 14Ah battery is available for this kit for an additional $250: 3.9kg with casing.
Warranty:
Hub motor, controller and battery are all warrantied for 2 years. Additional warranties may be available to you, such as our one year service warranty for your electric bicycle conversion if installed by Glow Worm Bicycles onto an approved bicycle.
