Hybrid/Motor Bike
This is my 3rd bike that I built. I’ve tried the Dimension Edge Honda gx50 friction drive kit and the Golden Eagle Robin/Subaru 35cc belt drive system. Out of all of them I think the chain drive system from Staton is the best. It has lots of torque. The complete Staton gear and chain two cycle engine drive kit with the NuVinci hub. The NuVinci hub is the transmission built into the rear wheel. The motor is the MITSUBISHI ENCORE TL43 50 T0 ONE GAS/OIL RATIO. The one-liter fuel tank delivers over 40 miles. The top speed is about 35+ all depends on the rider’s weight. The motor all the parts were painted black with a base coat of primer. The motor has a kill switch to turn it off.
The front wheel is electric. The Bionx PL350 system. Its top speed is 20mph.The battery is a 36 volt L-ion. The command console has a thumb throttle. In position G1 through G4 the motor becomes a generator, allowing to restoring energy into the battery. There is a switch on the front brake handle. When engaged the motor acts like a brake. The command console features are multifunction odometer, low voltage, battery level, assistance or generation level, level of energy being used of generated and many more. It also has a backlit lcd that you can turn on or off. Other features it having an alarm system. If the bicycle is being moved for more than ΒΌ wheel rotation, the battery will emit a sound and the Bionx will switch to the maximum generative mode. To turn if off just put in your pin code. A fully discharged battery can be recharged in approximately 3 to 4 hours
The head light are from Jet Lites Starfire Dual Beam W/ 5 Way Smart Switch. It has 3 power settings 14w, 22w and 36w.The battery is a 13.2v 3800 NIMH WATER BOTTLE BATTERY. It takes 4 hour to charge the battery.Run time for the light is 6w-6 hrs, 9w-4hrs, 12w-3hrs, 20w-2hrs, 32w-1hr, 15min

I took a ride to portvue from Clairton. It’s about 8 miles. It went up Rebecca St by the Elbow Room at 15 mph. I weight about 250. So if you are lighter you will gain more speed.
I live in Clairton Pa, stop by to test drive it. (Local pickup only)
