Description
Stacyc 16" Hub Motor Conversion Kit
- Drive: Hub motor, replaces stock gear drive
- Battery: 36V 5.2Ah, included
- Controller: New controller included
Real Upgrade
Hub Motor vs. Stock Gear Drive
Stacyc’s stock 16eDRIVE runs a geared transmission, not a hub motor. This kit replaces that system entirely, changing how power reaches the wheel rather than just adding more of it, which is a structurally different upgrade than a simple motor swap.
New Electronics Throughout
A New Controller, Not a Patch
The included controller replaces Stacyc’s original rather than working alongside it, paired with the 36V battery for a matched, tested system rather than a mismatched combination of old and new parts.
One Order, Complete System
Battery Included, Not an Add-On
The 36V 5.2Ah battery ships as part of the kit rather than being a separate purchase, so the motor, controller and battery arrive as a matched set rather than three parts you have to hope work together.

Description
Stacyc’s stock 16eDRIVE runs a geared transmission, not a hub motor. This kit replaces that entire drive system: a hub motor takes over from the stock gears, a new controller replaces the original, and a 36V 5.2Ah battery powers the whole setup. Nothing from the stock electrical system needs to carry over.
This is a bigger job than a battery or throttle swap, expect to be working with the drivetrain and wiring harness directly rather than a single bolt-on part. Riders who’ve done a full motor conversion before will find the scope familiar; first-timers should budget more than a quick afternoon.
One thing worth knowing before you buy: this product’s own listing has no written spec description, no wattage, no torque figures, nothing beyond the product photos. The 350W figure used elsewhere on this site for this kit comes from image labels, not confirmed spec text. We’re not hiding that gap, ask us directly if an exact wattage number matters for your decision.
FAQ
- Does this replace my Stacyc’s stock motor and controller?
- Yes, both, along with the battery. It’s a complete drivetrain swap, not an add-on.
- What’s the actual motor wattage?
- Commonly cited as 350W based on product image labels, but the supplier’s own listing doesn’t state a wattage in writing. Ask us to confirm before ordering if this matters for your build.
- Do I need to buy a battery separately?
- No, a 36V 5.2Ah battery ships with the kit. It’s also sold separately as a spare.
- Is this a harder install than a battery swap?
- Yes, this is a full drivetrain replacement involving the motor, controller and wiring harness, not a single-part swap.
