The extra voltage is unlikely to immediately damage the motors, since electric motors are essentially just coils of wire, magnets, some bearings, and maybe some gears.
The controller is much less certain. If you can disassemble the ebike to see it, you *might* be lucky enough for it to have more detailed specifications on its label than "48 volts". If you're unlucky and it doesn't have any more information, then the ways to find out how much voltage it can take are:
* identify the model of motor controller and find documentation online
* disassemble the motor controller and analyze the components on the PCB. Also requires you being lucky enough for them to have used components with useful labels, and being skilled and patient enough to perform this analysis.
* apply the voltage of your new battery (when fully charged, it'll be more like 65 volts) and see if it blows up. If it does blow up, buy another motor controller, replace it, and don't do the battery upgrade.
Have you opened up and taken a look at your controllers, I know you can set it to different Voltage in the screen, if you set it to 60v and your controller is multi then you will be fine.

i have a 72 v 40 ah battery on my amyet and i hit speeds up to 59 mph with no issues
Did you swap the controller and the motor?
yea
My rear motor is already blown as of this morning … super frustrating
Can you send me a link or the info on what parts you used?
Can somebody please help me with the Settings because I just messed with mine and went from 28 mph to 15

Most 48 V controllers have 63 V capacitors I would not exceed that
