Can I use a 60V battery on a 48V motor

The motor’s voltage determines how long a bike can travel on one charge. The extra voltage from a 60V battery will only be effective if the controller is rated for it. A 48V motor has a rating of 48v. Pushing it above this voltage could cause damage to the motor. Some factory controllers, however, can handle a small amount of overvolting. Check the manufacturer’s website for this information.
