**********************************
Frame, motor, Sabvoton controller and wheels from Alibaba. Everything else was purchased through various online stores and built in my garage.

Full Spec List:
1. QS273 V3 motor, 3.5T wind, NOW 5T
2. Sabvoton 72200 200amp controller – locked version
3. 49ah Panasonic battery with 150 amp max bms. (weighs 37lbs.)
4. 80/100-21 front tire & 18x1.85 rim in rear with Dunlop K990 tire.
5. Protaper Aluminum Handlebar, 3" Rise, 31.8mm Bar Clamp, 810mm Width. I cut 1.5” off either side.
6. Odi Rogue lock on grips. These things are AWESOME!
7. Shimano Zee 4 piston brakes on both front and back. Front rotor is a SRAM Centerline 220mm with a Hope adapter. Wired for e-brake. These brakes are a definite improvement over Tektros.
8. Two 210mm DNM RCP 2S 550lbs shocks.
9. DNM USD8 front forks.
10. Shimano MX 16 Tooth Single Speed Freewheel.
11. Fender is off a Razor MX650 and cut down to size. Had to get creative in mounting this as there is no mounting holes on the DNM fork. A bit of a ghetto mount but it works.
12. SCOSCHE MAGTFM2 MagicMount XL Universal Flush Mount Holder for Mobile Devices.
13. CAB Motorworks Saddleman seat made in USA. LOVE this seat. SO much better than the Chinese version.
14. Nkomax automatic Smart Bike Tail Light Ultra Bright
