Hi: I'm considering a Crystalyte 406/409 hub motor for the 26" rear. What would be the best battery pack for this motor? I'm thinking of using a 72v...
Hello Dwight, I know Joshua (crystalyte guru / www.evsolutions.net) will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think 48 V would do fine for a 26" wheel with a 406/409...
