Contents of a Sparrow 4825 Power System Kit
Complete systems from ElectricRider include everything you need to convert your pedal bike at home or at a bike shop, and we do a lot of the work for you. The wheel is laced to the motor and the batteries are wired. Every component we ship is tested just prior to shipment. Our goal is zero defects in our customers' hands.
Power System Only kits from ElectricRider include almost everything you need to convert your pedal bike at home or at a bike shop except batteries and charger. The wheel is laced to the motor. Every component we ship is bench tested just prior to shipment. If you do not have a battery and charger, order the complete kit rather than this Power System Only kit. Controllers for the Power System Only kit are supplied with no connector (just wires for + and -) to the batteries.
Here are pictures of individual PARTS for your perusal. You will also find hub system parts under parts categories.
| Motor | The Sparrow motor is a brushed motor, meaning there is physical contact between the stationary part of the motor to the moving part of the motor to transfer electrical energy. Brushed motors are the most common type of motor in use, and power everything from fans to vacuum cleaners. Expect to replace your brushes every 2500-4000 miles depending on the size of the wheel and how heavy your throttle hand is. |
| Spokes | We use 12 gauge spokes on 20" and larger rims. Normal bike spokes are 14 gauge. Heavier spokes mean less spoke maintenance and a stronger wheel. |
| Rim | Sparrow is available with 16", 20", 24", and 26" rims. All but the 16" are double-walled. We can lace Sparrow to 700C rim, but we do not recommend it. We like outstanding performance and reliability, and we think the 700C rim is just a bit too large for Sparrow's torque.. |
| Lacing | We lace the motor to the rim on our bench. We tighten the spokes to the correct tension, and make sure the wheel is true before shipping. |
| Controller | The 4825 system comes with a 48 volt 25amp controller (1200 watts). The 4825 controller includes connections for optional cruise control and brake inhibits. |
| Throttle | You get your choice of any throttle we offer. If you do not specify, you will receive a thumb throttle with gauge. You can see pictures of all the throttles we offer on our parts page. If you have twist shifters, choose a thumb throttle because the shifters take the space on the handlebar used by other models. |
| Spoke Wrench | We include a spoke wrench with all of our kits. |
Things you may want to add:
WireSet includes fuse, jumpers, charger port, and connection to controller.
If your battery already comes with these parts, a wireset is not needed, but if
it doesn't, the cost of the set is quite a bit less than the individual
components.
Cruise Control & Brake Inhibits make your ride more pleasant if you
wish to maintain a constant speed without holding the throttle.
Lights, speedometer, mirrors Lights and mirrors improve the safety of your
ride. A speedometer may turn out to be your best gauge of battery life,
particularly if you take the same route frequently. Please browse the selection
on our Accessories
page.
Since we assemble and package kits at our shop, we can make any substitution you desire. For instance, if you want 12AH batteries with a RoadRunner, we charge only the difference between the 10AH standard and the 12AH.
