When having to do with Electric Bike Conversion kits, are 1,000 watts faster than 500 watt kits?

   1000 watts motor definitely run faster than a 500 watt motor!

   But take care of 1 thing, it draws more power when running at maximum speed, thereby reducing the distance you can travel.

   Yes, 1000 watts means it takes 1000 ‘bits of energy’ every minute or so.
   So it will go faster, but it will also take more power.

   it really depends on the gear ratio.it mite have more power but not speed or vice a versa
