QMWheel V20 Pro Skinny Bike tunable controller: red motor plug, 500W
If you ride the QMWheel V20 Pro Skinny Bike, you need a controller that matches the motor. This tunable controller has a red motor plug and delivers 500W. It arrives restricted and can be tuned up to 45 km/h on private property.
You can order through FatbikeKlaar.nl; from Belgium you can do so through FatbikeKlaar.be and in English through FatbikeKlaar.com.
Which bike is this controller for?
The controller is intended for the QMWheel V20 Pro Skinny Bike. That is the V20 Pro on narrow 20 inch tyres, with disc brakes, front suspension and a 48V / 15Ah / 720Wh battery. Tuning works the same way as on the QMWheel V20 Pro.
You need it if your old controller is faulty or damaged, or if you want to tune a restricted Skinny Bike later. If you order the bike in the Tunable version, the controller is already included and you do not need to buy it separately.
What the controller does
The controller distributes the current from the battery to the motor. That is how it determines how strongly and up to what speed the motor assists.
Specifications
- Motor plug: red, not suitable for a black plug.
- Power: 500W.
- Connections: 5 cables, no alarm connection.
- Restricted as standard: throttle up to 6 km/h as walk assist; you do the tuning yourself using the buttons on a tunable display.
- Tunable: up to 45 km/h.
Restricted on the cycle path
When restricted, the Skinny Bike remains an electric bike with pedal assist up to 25 km/h. That way you ride legally on cycle paths and in town without a driving licence or number plate. That is where the narrow tyres come into their own, as they roll easily on tarmac.
Tuning: what is possible and what is allowed
To tune up to 45 km/h, you combine this controller with the tunable H6C display. You activate the higher speed with a tuning code. With the kill switch you go back to 25 km/h: hold two buttons for about 3 seconds. You will find more explanation in the article Tuning the QMWheel V20 to 45 km/h and separate parts in the tuning kits. Riding tuned is only allowed on private or enclosed property; on public roads a maximum of 25 km/h pedal assist applies.
Fitting
You reach the controller most easily if you first remove the saddle from the bike. Then you connect 5 cables. Take a photo of the old connections beforehand, so you can see exactly which plug goes where. After fitting, test in restricted mode first. Can't work it out?

Frequently asked questions about the Skinny Bike controller
How do I know whether my Skinny Bike has a red motor plug?
Look at the plug in the cable between the motor and the controller. If it is red, this controller fits. With a black plug you need a different type.

For tuning, yes. With the tunable H6C display you activate the higher speed with a code and switch back with the kill switch.
Am I allowed to ride tuned on the cycle path?
No. Riding tuned is only allowed on private or enclosed property. On the cycle path and public roads you ride restricted to 25 km/h.
Is the controller delivered fitted?
No, you receive it as a separate part. You first remove the saddle from the bike and then connect 5 cables. Need help? Send us a WhatsApp message.
