Torque X Controller
« on: May 09, 2025, 09:10:48 AM »
I recently built my first ebike.  Started with a Mongoose Envoy cargo bike.  Went with the BBSHD, egg rider, and a 52V 50 amp battery.  I have a Lekie 36-36 single speed drive train.  I am getting good torque and top speed of 15.6 mph.  I then purchased and installed a Torque X 3000W controller.  There is a boost of low end torque, but top speed is exactly the same.  I was thinking speed would go up some.  Am I missing a setting that should be changed, or is this to be expected?

Hi andto the forum.

For higher speed you'll need either higher gearing or higher voltage.
A higher current controller only increases the available torque, not the top speed.
