This was by far the most informative and helpful E-bike video on KZitem not to mention specifically for the Ridstar Q20... Your videos reassure my purchase as I'm using this as a fulltime commuter till I get my license back. This e-bike was the best bang for the buck,, and I knew I could and would upgrade it down the road,, Just didn't know how till your videos... Ik most ppl aren't interested in this, but would LOVE to see a speed upgrade done to this bike, cuz like i said this is my fulltime commuter n sometimes the mornings don't go as planned, n I'm not tryna be late lol. Anyway great vid!

No max speed increase but you do maintain top speed longer as stock battery speed speed slows after 18 miles the extra battery can go 28 miles before you feel the impact The battery meter on the screen shows for both batteries.

I was hoping you could provide some clarification. This is a great video btw. Thank you for making it. I was reading the comments and you said once the battery is installed you don’t remove it. If this is correct, does that mean in order to charge the battery, I would have to have the bike near a wall outlet? And why can’t you remove the battery every time you need to charge it like the stock battery? Is it that inconvenient to remove it? Thank you for taking the time to answer my question. Your videos are well put together and I am seriously considering doing this . After all 12 extra miles would me helpful. My concern is with charging. I store my bike outside in a shed away from the elements where I don’t have excess to a outlet and since I use this as a commuting bike, having to bring it inside to an outlet every time I need to charge it would be a hardship I think. anyway, thank you so much for your videos.

No increase in top speed, but top speed is maintained longer and does not fall off after 20 miles like a single battery.

Probably the replace the controller with a 25A output. I need to do some research on which one will work. You won’t be able to go much faster maybe 1-3 mph but your range will be shorter. With 48V your maxed out on speed. Even $5000 Super73 only gets top speed of 32 mph and the ridstar Q20 does 31 mph. If you want to go 40-45 mph you’ll need a 60V ebike which expensive and heavy

No gain in top speed but with 2nd battery you can maintain the higher speeds longer than with single battery after 18 miles speed slow, with two you can go 28 miles. Not much more speed you can get out of bike with 48v; 31 mph top speed is respectable. $5000 super 83 top speed is 32 mph
