 The size of the battery is 13S12P, so 13 elements in serie (48.1V nominal) and 12 elements in parallel (31200 mah nominal).

 You don't have to forget about adding a BMS (Battery Management System) to the battery pack, to preserve the battery life (you'll find enough informations on the Internet about why BMS are important).

 During the tests, I've just attached the battery pack with black tape. It's Mad Max style but it's OK for the tests !

+On this early first version, I've adapted a brushed DC motor of 2kW to the wheel with 3D printing parts. But that was not a good idea. The motor was quite cheap, and that was difficult to put the chain in the right place.
+Also, After about 200km, I've burned out the motor because of too much current for a long period...
+So, after that, I've bought a wheel with a brushless motor inside, and the result is much more better :

+It's well integrated now.
+===== Battery enclosure =====
+After the tests, I've 3D printed the battery enclosure in ABS on a printer I've designed in my company and added 2 aluminium plates to close it.
+The battery is well integrated to the frame and it's working like a charm.

+===== Results and tests =====
+As I've said, the brushed DC motor wasn't a good idea and burned out quite quickly.
+After the installation of the brushless wheel, the results are very good.
+The max speed I was able to reach is about 62-63 km/h on flat roads.
+The range is about 200km with pedal assist set to 1 (minimal consumption, you need to pedal but without sweating you can reach 25-27 km/h.
+If you go without pedal assist (just with throttle, like a bike and going beetween 55-60 km/h, the range is reduced to about 60km (1 hour in fact).
+So, very good project, the global cost was about 700€, without the bike I already had.
