DIY E-Bike Build - Jackshaft Install EP4

This is episode four of a DIY, non-kit, electric motorized bicycle build. The basis for this build is a scrapped 24" mountain bike and an old 250 watt electric scooter motor. In this episode, I cut down and re-drill an old small engine mounting plate from a previous project to be used as the base plate for the pillow block mounted 5/8" jackshaft. It is held on to the bike with two 1-1/2" muffler clamps which were the only new parts used so far in this build.
