Choosing the right frame
Best Bikes for Your Conversion Kit!
For the 1500W and 2000W hub motor kits, bikes like the Trek Marlin 5 Gen 2, Giant Talon, Specialized Rockhopper, Cannondale Trail, Fluid Daytona, and Atmos Nerang are top choices. These hardtail models provide the right balance of strength, control, and geometry. Make sure the frame size is at least medium to fit the battery securely in the triangle.
For the 3000W and 5000W kits, the same bikes work, but a large or extra-large frame is recommended. This ensures the added power is supported and accommodates larger batteries like the 72V 30Ah in the black cloth case, (Please refer to the battery dimensions in the product images for size reference.)
Frame Size Consideration:
-
1500W-2000W Kits:
- Medium frame or larger required for compatibility with 52V batteries.
-
3000W Kit:
- Compatible with 72V 20Ah and 30Ah batteries.
- Large or extra-large frame recommended for optimal fit, especially with the 72V 30Ah battery.
-
5000W Kit:
- Compatible with 72V 20Ah and 30Ah batteries.
-
Large or extra-large frame recommended for optimal fit, especially with the 72V 30Ah battery.
- Only compatible with 150mm dropout bikes
Note:
For best performance, both the 3000W and 5000W kits should always be paired with 72V batteries. These kits are not compatible with 52V options.
