EV Channels Review
RichRebuilds successfully upgraded a Monster Moto 1000 electric mini bike to compete against a gas-powered mini bike. The core of the upgrade involved replacing the stock 1000W motor, controller, and 36V battery with a significantly more powerful setup: a higher wattage motor, a much larger 72V controller, and a 72V Lithium Ion battery pack. The reviewer highlights the challenges of fitting the larger components into the existing frame and the importance of the 'hard boot' button for instant torque. Despite the added weight of the new battery, the electric mini bike proved victorious in the race against its gas counterpart. The reviewer emphasizes the advantages of EVs, such as silent operation and instant torque, while also noting the bike's small size makes it less conspicuous to law enforcement. The video concludes with the reviewer winning the bet and Stephen having to give away his gas mini bike.
