Dirt bike/Surron seat on converted e bike?

Posted by JellyBaguette@reddit | ebikes | View on Reddit | 38 comments

I have just built a 1500w 52v e bike and i’m loving it so far, I’m already good at wheelies and tricks but i’m really interested in putting a dirt bike or surron seat on it for more area to put my feet and knees and everything, i’ve only seen one like it on tiktok which is the one above, any idea on how I could do it?

You'll need a CRF50 seat

-M6 hex nuts

-2 M6 120mm Bolts

-M6 Washers (4-6)

Here's a video for demonstration

this method is buns you need a pipe you can bend that fits in your seat post you need to bend it to lean back a crf50 seat and 2 long bolts that fit the 2 holes and a Circle Clamp you need to put the 2 bolts through the hole and clamp the pipe on also if you have a 3d printer make a adapter that goes to the frame and to the bottom of the seat mine is budgied down

Send images and a tutorial, my method had been holding up for 5 months now but I need to make the seat pushed back, your instructions is to unclear.

Dude from that picture you’re using 2 bungee cords to hold your seat in place. It doesn’t even look good

ProfessionalLaw1362@reddit

you just bend the pipe to a angle of your choice you cut it to the length you want the longer the further the seat is back then you use the 2 rear holds and put 2 of any large screw through them im using decking screws in drywall mounts cuz with only my screws it fell off and i lost my seat while doing 40 mph hence why there is bungees now then you just clamp it all together as shown in photo

im gonna keep on riding this ill let yall know if i remember to if its decent its fun makes wheeling easy pedaling is a bit goofy but its a ebike who needs to pedal

If you bend the bar further up it will fit on the frame and if you have a 3d printer you can model and print a adapter to fit it better to the frame i just have a block of foam and a bungee to protect my wires cuz where my controller is

this method makes your seat far back like a surron so instead of sitting on the frame you are above the tire
