I also resorted to using just a standard single with no freewheel but that forces you to peddle at all times the motor is engaged and is not the safest option.
Just saying keep an eye on it.
Thanks for the heads up. I'm sure it's not top quality. I guess there's probably a way to put a good bearing in there, it's just work...
I'm hoping whatever problems crop up that they are fixable.
How's the power and which cyclone did you buy?
