hi karma,
thanks for your input,from watching your vid on utube(which shows good footage).
i think the cyclone style kit,could be a bit dangerous in the case of some sort of failure at
25+mph speeds..
i currently own a 36v 400watt front wheel ebike,ive been riding it now about a year
with no probs..so for reliability,hub motors gets a from me.

so for my project build im thinking of ordering a 450watt 36v geared motor (currie style)
+ motor mount.whick will make motor installation alot easier..and plan on mod it to 48v..+
cooling the motor.i read about on endlessphere.com.
Q, do you know of anyone that supplys the 36v1000watt motor..i cant find anyone with stock..
also.in a couple of weeks im buying a 2nd hand electric moped 200watt to modify..60v..
for some reason emoped site only claims 200watt 48v 20amp @25-30 kph,im after 55-60 kph
i think its the smaller wheel size..
anyway im ordering the 450watt motor+parts from tncscooters.com,
they seem cheap+are quick to response to emails.
once again thanks alot for your input.
