Electric bike drifting and burnouts from the past 9 months in Canada
How many smiles per hour do you guess ?
(make your guess in the comments section!).
This is my custom made mid-drive kit mounted on a 1998 Specialized FSR which is one half to about one third the weight of similar performance hub motor, my gear ratio is maximized for minimal power draw and low speed with high torque.
Total e bike weight varies from 38 - 42 lbs depending on setup.
Drive sprockets are 7T on motor with 95T on the crank
Two chainrings upfront - 18T and 36T
9 speed cassette
162mm cranks
Nearly all the pedicab, recumbent, tandem, velomobile, trike, or cargo bike can have this mid-drive system installed.
I did another test to find the minimum amount of solar energy needed to power my e bike forward, and was surprised that just 15 watts is all that was needed!
