Electric Cycle

Highlights

  • End-to-end build: mechanical integration, wiring, safety, testing, and tuning
  • Modular electrical architecture for easy swapping/upgrading of components
  • Focus on reliability and maintainability: tidy harnessing, protected connectors, serviceable layout
  • Real-world testing on city streets (acceleration, braking, range feel)

What I did

  • Mechanical: mounting the drive system, aligning chainline / belt run, vibration isolation
  • Electrical: battery management, motor controller wiring, throttle/brake signaling, fusing & safety
  • Firmware/controls: controller configuration and basic tuning for smooth starts
  • Field testing: iterative test–fix–test cycles to validate performance and robustness

Notes & safety

  • Use appropriate fusing, wire gauges, strain relief and insulation; protect against vibration and weather.
  • Validate braking performance and safe speeds for your local roads.
  • Charge/store batteries safely and follow manufacturer guidance.
