Product Overview – Why Choose the HOTEBIKE Rear Wheel Kit?
HOTEBIKE has been a trusted name in the e-bike industry, known for delivering reliable, high-performance motors and wheels. This 36V 350W rear wheel hub motor kit is the ideal solution for riders who want to electrify their existing bike without the complexity of a full conversion system. The kit includes a pre-built wheel with motor, rim, spokes, and mounting screws—everything you need for a straightforward installation. Designed specifically for 27.5-inch and 26-inch wheels (not fat tire), it fits most mountain and city e-bike frames. The 350W brushless motor provides ample power for hills and acceleration, while the 36V system ensures compatibility with common battery packs. Upgrade your ride with confidence, knowing each component is rigorously tested for performance and safety.
Key Features – What Makes This Kit Stand Out
- Plug-and-Play Installation: Complete wheel set with motor, rim, spokes, and screws included. No need to lace a motor into a rim—simply mount, connect, and ride.
- Powerful 350W Brushless Motor: Delivers consistent torque for climbing hills (up to 10% grade) and reaching speeds of 20-25 mph (32-40 km/h) on flat terrain, depending on rider weight and battery.
- Versatile Fitment: Compatible with 26-inch and 27.5-inch wheel sizes (ISO 559 and 584 mm bead seat diameter). Fits most standard mountain and city bike dropouts (135 mm rear spacing).
- Durable Construction: High-strength aluminum alloy rim and stainless steel spokes resist corrosion and provide long-lasting performance. Motor housing is sealed against dust and moisture.
- Quiet and Efficient: Geared hub motor design ensures silent operation and minimal drag when coasting. Regenerative braking? No, but the freewheel mechanism allows natural pedaling.
- Battery-Ready: Works with any standard 36V e-bike battery (not included) using a common 3-pin or 5-pin connector (connector type may vary; please verify compatibility).
