The weights below are for a bare motor, if any of my data is incorrect, please let me know so I can correct it, Thanks.
The motors below are the ones I am still considering (in no particular order)...if anybody has information about them or personal experience (good or bad), please help me decide:
A. Crystalyte H55: 22 pounds
B. Crystalyte Crown: 17.6 pounds The Crown does have a 40mm stator. I ran it through the Grin Tech Motor Simulator against other motors and for the most part, everything that had a stator that is 40mm or wider performed VERY similarly.
C. MXUS 3K Turbo: 20.1 pounds
Soooo, what is the "lightest" motor produced by a reputable manufacturer that has at least a 40mm wide stator? I plan to run Statorade or ATF as a cooling fluid and I'd like the top speed of my bike to be 35-40 mph so I don't believe over heating will be an issue. I ran every motor mentioned here, and a bunch of other motors as well, in the Grin Tech Motor Simulator and everything that had at least a 40mm wide stator, performed about the same except for the time to overheat...after I increased the incline.
Examples of what I have ruled out are the QS205/273 and the Cromotor...they are both very good motors but they are a little too heavy.
