Looking at the efficiency curve for the 500w motor, I see it peaks between 2000 and 3000 rpms. Using a 40 tooth chain ring for instance that would mean a...

Too bad I don't have the room under the skin of my velomobile, nor the clearance with the Stokemonkey fork. I could graft very very short spokes and a tiny rim...

... I don't see the advantage of spinning a hub motor anywhere but in a hub. It is more secure to mount a motor by its housing than by its axle, and more...
... Hub motors are only a slight variation on the standard pancake motor. Pancake motors have all kinds of uses other than electric bicycles. One advantage of...
I just posted a pic of my newly completed bottom bracket drive bike using a dual speed hub motor. They are great to use because they run at a proper RPM...
... That makes sense, but the pancake motor would be even more useful if the casing had mounting sockets, the wires came out of the casing and the axle spun....
