Is there a better option than the 79Bike Falcon Pro?

My price range is 3,500 to 4,100 max
I just want to know if there is a better option in this price range before I pull the trigger

I got a new controller for my Mac fox X2

The stock power on my bike is 48 V 40 ah battery my motor is 1000 W peak and my stock controller was a 22 amp maximum current and my new controller I got is a 35 amp. I ordered some connectors and soldering stuff, but it won’t be here until tomorrow so I’m trying to figure out the mounting and wiring situation before that comes. My new controller came with these really small wires for the battery connection and I thought that was weird because I didn’t think the small wires would be able to handle 35 A from the controller so I opened up my old controller which was the 22 amp one and it has the same small wires for the battery connection. Are these wires going to be safe to push 35 A through? I’m kind of new to wiring and electronics so I’m just a little confused about why these wires are so small. Is it going to overheat if I tried to plug it into my bike and try to ride it?

Adding a brake light to Heybike Villain

I got a heybike villain recently and it’s my first e-bike. I’m pretty happy with it stock but I want to add a brake light. Does anyone know what the stock controller is and if it comes with a female wiring harness to easily add a 6 pin brake light? Do I need to change the controller or wiring to add the tail light? Also, I don’t see any brake lights spec’s for 52V. I see 36V - 48V on Amazon. Does the voltage matter for this?

Upgrade options for Hurley Big Swell.

I’m looking at motor/controller options to add a little speed to this bike. It’s currently setup with 48v batteries and a 1000w hub motor. I would like a brushless motor if possible and a 72v system. Any suggestions are appreciated.
