Rear Hub Research

[neptronix]

I'm still a leafmotor fan until something better comes out. I've yet to see something more efficient and powerful per lb.

Grin's all axle front motor is turning into a fine piece of equipment and might have a little edge over the leafs in efficiency/power per weight.. but there seems to be no hope in the rear future of it becoming a rear motor.

Faded sticker, no mention of it being used. Charger looks used to.

Probably been months on end with the battery fully charged.

It was recharged full for the testing before listing.

spotted on ebay:

48V 10Ah Electric Bike Battery, BtrPower Lithium LiFePO4 with charger
$120 + $25 shipping
You can add a 1 year warranty for another $13 (I would)
open box ...

Open box presumably returned to shipper due to shipping damage (charger), but that is why I suggest the optional warranty.
Laser printed sticker, fading and rubbing off to be expected. It is not the highest quality but it is fairly inexpensive for LeFePo4 battery.

Putting my money where my mouth is: I ordered a similar 48V 15AHr pack he had :|

Hey, would a rear hub work on a folding bike like this one : https://www.ebay.com/itm/21-Speed-Folding-24-26-Mountain-Road-Bicycle-Riding-Sport-MTB-Bike-Disc-Brakes/114593763027?hash=item1aae520ed3%3Ag%3AQX0AAOSwd0Nf922A&fbclid=IwAR061K7ZCHG8Kk-aZGKPYflA_nMnUWsXsCa6yrLdBkeym76RWD4o9Js2J4Q

If not, I could mod my existing bike and use the folding one as my pedal bike, provided that the folding ones don't suck as a pedal bike.

edit: I pulled the trigger so we'll find out. The real question is whether it will still fold with the rear hub wheel on it, I ordered '26. If it doesn't, I'm going to mod the other one. I'll get it in around a week and I bet within 1-2 months I'll start my modding.
