Alot of torque might be an understatement.
I googled and came up with kollmorgen/danaher. Didn't look like the K site had any motors on it but the D site did, none as you portray however?
I rode a TS Jackal with an Etek a few years ago and that thing would scoot. I think that size motor is better suited to a bit larger vehicle than a bicycle perhaps? But I can think of a few applications. Thanks for sharing.
One other thing. What was your objective changing the magnets and were you pleased with the final results?
ya the etek motors are nice. im just trying to get more power out of this small motor. so far so good.
got around to gluing the magnets down i used sumo glue by loctite.

the locktite glue was a bust. i ended up mixing my own resin and it worked.
motor works way past 60v without coming apart.
