For the record, I still find your arguments as weak as I did a year ago. 10 kw in a hard tail, no added structural strength. Man you are lucky to still be alive. Your bike could easily have turned into a heap of broken metall on one of your 80 km/h rides. Yeah I do know you didn't build it for going 80 km/h ALL the time, but you have taken design principle and turned it upside down and somehow think that is a good thing? People designing vehicle for a living they are not choosing brakes, suspensions and other safety equipments based on max national speed limit, or what speed most people drive most of the time. No they are building brakes, suspension etc according to max user input - and they do so for a very good reason.
That you have manged to survive w whole year I put that on luck alone ond only that. Your build is a dumb now as it was a year ago. People didn't tell you "you can not build this" if that was what you read. They gave you plenty of reason why you should not take a classic hard tail bicycle and strap on a 10 kw motor. Yet you are still alive. You have not proved a point, you are not special. In fact it seems you have grown absolutely nothing in the past 12 months.
For other people that stumble onto this thread, such a build does not make sense. It shows blunt disregard of respect for life and risk.
I am usually one that that applaud most high power builds. I like it when people push the limits. I know I favor powerful rides.
But ignorance & stupidity I do not applaud.
