ezebike

I bought my first ebike kit from Golden Motor with hopes of not only having my own ebike but of making it a business and selling kits. I liked the fact that they made a gearless, brushless motor and I liked how they looked. The first thing I had to do was decide on a name for a new gmail account. I decided on LLC EZE Bike. It has great Numbers and I liked the sound. So; I contacted Golden Motors and got back a quick reply, a price list and the terms of having a dealership. A few days later I ordered a 48v 1000w kit and a 48v 10ah battery. 10 days later it arrived. It took me a few days to get it together and I took my first ride but there was something wrong! After a very short time it cut out and so began the investigation to discover the source of the problem. With the help of my rep and the Endless Sphere forum I began to try to solve the problem. The first thing I needed was to buy a Multi Meter so I could test the battery etc and report back with the data. I found out that it was not charging to capacity and the conclusion was that there was a dead cell in the battery. I was also informed that I needed a program wire to program the controller. So now you see the battery is appart and I'm waiting for a new cel to arrive from Golden Motors. I'm also ordering a programming cable. Although I'm disappointed not to be riding; this is giving me a chance to really get to know the technology of ebikes. So it's actually a blessing in disguise.
