AquaWater09901 have you confirmed that this works to get you to 28MPH? Also recognize you have the Big Swell I believe. Have been trying this on the Big Sur, as others have said, perhaps with other models as well they haven't been able to change it.

Perhaps you even have a different LCD Display? I can see on the back of mine it says it is Model AK47.

I have tried searching for hacks on Model AK47 but haven't come up with anything, but see this is in fact the display as quantities can be bought from Alibaba etc, showing this display.

I did notice I can get to some type of undocumented menu on mine with PO levels and settings by holding down the up and down at the same time while the display is on.

Edit:

Ah, I figured out how to remove the limit!!

These PO settings look to be standard.
So get to the PO settings by holding the Up/Down at the same time after the LCD is on.
Click on the power button to go through the PO's.
PO8 is the limit! This is in kmh, this was set to 32, bump this up with the up arrow to 41. That is the max I could change it to. This works out to 25.5 mph.
After this change I can get to 25mph going down a hill.
On a straight road I can cruise at about 22 with full throttle. Pedaling fast like crazy I can get it up 24.

So this is a bit of an increase. Perhaps with a bigger front sprocket I could peddle a bit normally and get to 25.

Perhaps it is a limit of the 350W motor or the battery to get me with throttle to 23 or so, but I don't think the controller itself will let me go above 41kph with motor assist.

Possibly changing wheel size, PO6, would allow assist at faster speed?

FYI, I see some people have commented about their having 5 instead of 3 levels. This can be set in the PO5 setting.

Here are the PO settings for an entirely different controller, but they look pretty close from what I see. https://elecbikeparts.com/pages/s...ser-manual

There could be some other cool settings to see what they are and work with them.

for example: P12 PAS Start Strength
0-5, Higher = more assistance
Amount of assistance given when you start pedaling.

I am thinking this must be low. It seems to give very little help right away. Perhaps a safety feature set at factory? But I want help right away!

Or PO9 might affect how quickly it helps?
P09 Throttle Response
0 for instant throttle, 1 for delayed throttle
Sets whether pressing throttle and motor beginning to spin is instant, or whether there is a delay between the actions.

Edit: P09 was already set at 0 and can't be changed
P12 was set at 3 and can't go higher, but it can go lower.

FYI, read on this site https://power-bicycle.com/ebike-power/ that hub motors are pretty much limited to 25.

"Once the ebike is travelling at 25 MPH, the controller-wheel speed is maxed out. You can't go far over 25 MPH on most hub motors unless the motor & controller pair are designed for higher speeds."

This guy also talks about a smoothing circuit the mfgs implement for greater distance. Something about a loop back wire that can be removed to increase initial assistance but at
a sacrifice in distance.
Is this random china stuff?

Not a lot of reviews. I got a warning going to this site (possibly fraudulent?).

Why don't they sell any ebikes on their non-corporate site?

Is anyone else concerned this is a knockoff? Joyridebikes.com is the original site (since 2001) selling Hurley and joyridebike.com (since 2015) is painted with 'weird' all over it.
Why are people downvoting this? This is a good deal

I'm very interested in the Big Swell but not a lot of info on the motor and battery. Crazy good price for that bike.
I purchased a big swell from a website called Wellbots, After originally purchasing a swft zip from Best Buy. I absolutely loved it, (the Zip) however I did want the bigger battery so I was able to return it. Basically they are the same bikes, just with a bigger motor and battery. So far I have logged about 80 miles on the odometer, and the charge seems to hold for a couple of days. Unfortunately not a lot of info online about them, but this is definitely an amazing deal so I just bought another for my girlfriend

Awesome, what is the AH of the battery and what brand is the motor? What is its peak power? Can you unlock it for faster? Sorry for too many questions.

No problem at all. Now I am not a pro when it comes to E bikes, I honestly just bought this one because it was fast and it looked cool lol. But here are the specs coming straight from the battery:
Capacity: 15ah 720wh
Brand: Ningbo Veken New Energy
Model: HS-48v15Ah-Ebike-A

And yes! It comes standard limited to 20 mph, but by holding the up arrow button for three seconds then holding the power button for another three seconds it removes the limiter, and I have been able to get a constant top speed of 28 mph.

Bike is branded as an avalanche bike as expected from pictures. It might be hit miss on the hurley name pending which model you order. It was packaged really well and shipped via fedex. Setup is straight forward and simple, only issue I have is the adjusting the front brakes. I still need to play with it some , little rubbing with front wheel and it isnt spinning freely.

Read the instruction card that is shipped with the bike on how to use the electric assist. !! First time using the an electric bike and its a nice feature. Electric assist works great but I havent really tested it out for a decent ride. In short ride a few house up and back it was nice touch, set the assist and go.

updated*
quick mile around the block, seat isnt the most comfortable. Bike will easily do 20mph, may try to unlock it for faster speed if possible. The electric assist is pretty cool 1-3 levels, overall its a solid bike for the price. Wife tried to ride it and its a tad too large for her

I am trying to follow this conversation. You are talking about the Big Swell from Wellbots, correct or some other bike available here? When I search on Wellbots, it shows the "Big Swell" as a $2K bike with a1000 watt 48v battery, 28mph. So I am not sure which bike your discussion is about. Is it about the Swift/Carve after all?

https://www.wellbots.com/products...ed-edition

I have ordered two of the Big Sur, (different locations summer and winter house), but deciding to get another. If you are talking about the Swift/Carve. I am wondering what they offer over the Big Sur. Seem to have the same power but $100 higher cost for the Carve. I like the lower height of the Sur, since I am 5' 9" and spouse shorter as well.

I don't see any of the bikes have braise on rack attachments. One of my uses is to attach a burley tag-a-long type bike for grandkids, which requires a moose rack. It is getting tougher pulling them along, particularly up the hills, where an electric bike would be nice.

I was talking about the big swell, which is the same bike available on here and on the well bot site. I just so happen to buy my bike about a month before seeing this deal.

the Teton is the same bike as Hurley Thruster. If you want the Hurley logo, go with Thruster but you would be paying more for the same bike.
