Kids ATV - Need more tourque

mike.katulka · 12-29-2021, 11:15 AM

I purchased 2 of the 36v 500wtt atv from saferwholesale dot com

The front sprocket looks like 11 teeth and rear is 54 teeth. Motor is 500w, 36v

The quad gets stuck going up most of the hills in my yard, and my driveway. I guess it's pretty steep. I don't need a dramatic improvement in climb but definitely something.

Anyone know what this quad is and what I can upgrade with? Chain type/size etc?

Can you remove the front sprocket and take a pic or measurements?

That actually could be more than enough. If you wish to brave the unknown, you could always overvolt the motor by swapping to 48 volts.

It looks like it has three speeds that are controlled at the right hand grip. I would test each one, you might find a sweet spot for what you want to do. I agree with Falkon45, that ratio is pretty good already.

I'm curious about the overvolting. One kid is about 45 lbs and the other is about 80lb. It's my older one that I would consider higher volt (and speed).

The gears are attached.

There's probably a safety in the controller that cuts the power. I don't know much about those, though, other than the simple stuff.
