If you are going all in, go full size, because the mount will be more solid! I went with smaller bolts so the drilled holes in my spin bike is smaller and not very noticeable if were to ever want to sell the spin bike in the future. 25 inch or whatever size the holes are in the punched bar for a snug fit. – MT60 3 wire bullet connector (my motor came with a Female MT60 connector so that’s the path I took) – 3 to 4mm bullet connectors and heat shrink tubing OR – Female disconnects, also known as spade connectors to connect to the bridge rectifier and the car sockets – Wire, I use 12 GA, you can use smaller (14 or 16 GA) if you don’t plan to generate 100’s of watts – DC Meter or this bigger one, both are powered by the input voltage – 140Kv RC motor, this thing is capable of 1200 Watts and 34 Amps so this won’t limit our max potential! If you don’t have one, Amazon has some for a reasonable price, also look on Craiglist, garage sales, etc if you don’t want to buy a new one I’m using one from Sports Authority, but most are of a similar design. Here’s what you’ll need for this project: This design should be adaptable to most other spin bikes with little or no modification. Like my other design, we will use an RC motor and a 3 phase bridge rectifier for the core of the design.
#Sports authority spinning bike generator
An exercise spin bike is a perfect candidate for making a pedal generator with just a few parts and fairly simple electronics.


Following the theme of my bicycle trainer pedal generator, I wanted to build something with a more substantial flywheel in order to take advantage of momentum the added weight will provide.
