Found a guy here in town that has a few brand new bolt on rearends that change a bike to trike. They are blue with a 2 sprockets, a electric motor. has an axel with a flat side to them. Will try to find out what they were for. New still in the box. Would these be worth doing something with? Joe

Izip Hybrid electric bike
model no. IZ-TRICR7-BL
There was a recall on the bikes for the rear axel problem, 6 reports out of 2100. Could have been mistreatment, who knows. The motors cost $200.00. They are 24v 450 w. 15-20 MPH 25-30 mile range. Got all info. off of internet. I can see what he will sell them for. Just trying to help. Joe

Hi Joe,
That is what I thought they were. A member here, Motortriker, had one break and he was injured. Broken ribs and leg if I remember correctly.
Izip took care of everything and replaced parts he said so they do stand behind their products. He also said his helmet saved his noggin.
I'd be interested to see what they cost and if he would ship one to Canada or at least to my shipping address in the U.S.
Thank you for posting this. A nice find.

I looked it up and it seems it was just the trikes that they built not the trike conversions.

That's a pretty wimpy setup, isn't it? Might be good as a hybrid in conjunction with a china girl, something like that. I wonder if the motor could handle 36 V.

Silverbear,
From what I learned from Pop's over on the Island when I bought basicaly the same motor that they tend to let the magic smoke out at 30V. This may be a heavier motor and they can be over volted but I'm not sure either way.
Motortriker had a scooter controller on his which he said was better and his battery pack was made up from 123 cells that came from used DeWalt battery packs and he had another battery pack made from another battery source.
The only complaint I see about Currie motors is the gear noise but I would guess that is different with everyone as to the level of annoyance.

That's true Racie. I hear 15 is the outer edge of safe but if I remember correctly Motortriker said that he was above that at times and the trike handled OK.
Ten miles an hour would work quite nicely for me since I have kissed enough asphalt over the years to more than satisfy any desire I had to do so.

I don't know about the Electric motor set up ones. But my Friend has a bike shop here in Phoenix & he is going to order me a almost Identical setup that bolts on to any frame 4 3/4 51/2 it Uses a freewheel sprocket. So you don't need a trike hub. It comes with frame mounting Hardware axle 1freewheel sprocket. You just need two Holllow hub trike wheels pull the rear tire off the bike change the chain & it's a trike in 10 minutes. Comes Powder coated red or blue. I'm going to add a second sprocket to run my motor. The bolt on kit he is charging me $85.00
+ wheels made by SUN ( something ) the same Distributor of the C9 Cloud 9 seats. Ask your local bike shop. They sell the whole trike but can order just the rear section. I hope this helped. MSG me & I will get the Distributor & part Number for you.
