Ha, that was my guess but needs a second controller to0.
Just pretend that everything is OK maybe no one will notice.

Why the need for more controller power? When you already fried the motor with one....?

Whats the use? you need a motor that does not melt during usage.
A decent 25mph bike will cost around $1000.
A decent 35mph bike will cost around $2000.
A $1000 35mph bike will get you killed.

That's the other part of the equation of course. I'm putting together my motor options right now. I may need to cut a bit of the frames upper and lower tubes away to make room for something about 4" larger in diameter.

you might need a little more room for forced water cooling and stuff, but 500hp+ on a bicycle should fulfill your demands.
A decent 25mph bike will cost around $1000.
A decent 35mph bike will cost around $2000.
A $1000 35mph bike will get you killed.

I think the Joby motor running as a 6-phase motor with the Sevcon's in master and slave running slightly different timing...

I haven't decided on motor yet.

There are lots of really cool motors out there these days. Mission has some awesome stuff. Remy motor has some amazing stuff. YASA motor has some awesome stuff. Formula1 KERS motors are pretty awesome (though the electric freq would be to high and the gearing would suck).

Not 100% sure what to do for the motor, but there are lots of cool options out there.

Oh, I'm gonna look this up just for fun! Is this similar to what the White Zombie dragster runs?

Just get it over with and stick one of those netgain motors on it.

The all-arounder: 8T MAC motor on a Trek 4500.
The girlfriend bike: 350W front MAC on a 700c Trek.
The wheelie machine: 20" Rear Magic Pie II on a Trek 4300 MTB
The Bus: ??? on a 'da bomb' cargo bike frame

Pro-tips for noobs: Avoid BMS Battery like the plague | Charge RC Lipos to 4.15v, stop discharging at 3.5-3.6v | Use torque plates/arms! | Rear mounted hubs are always best
