Hi all,

I'm RolluS, 36 from France. My everyday commuter, between train and tramway is this:

I'm in the process of converting this:

Here is how we ride it:

It will be powered with 16S or 20S Lipo, with an ebike controller, thumb throttle, etc... and I think using a 3000W cyclone mid engine.

Hi RolluS, welcome to the board..
I would recommend you buy a good crash hat, some knee , elbow, and spine protectors, ..before you try that 3000W monowheel conversion ! :lol: :wink:

Thank you.

I wear motorcycle gear. That's a must.

I ride 40+ km/h on electric unicycles. Some friends of mine say I crash test the wheels

Edit: and don't get me wrong, I'm serious, I have thousands of kilometer experience on EUC and other strange things. I'm not kidding.
3kW is a lot, maybe too much, but I can't find affordable, say, 72V 1500W mid motor.

Gauswheel is a cool gadget! I like your RolluSkate too.
Haven't you considered a DD hub motor?
A cheap generic "48V 1000W" front hub would be happy at 1500w on 20" wheel.
Also much cleaner looking.

Thanks.

The DD hub motor won't fit because stock wheel is 55mm wide only

I was thinking about hub sprocket adapter like those we can find on 80cc gasser conversion

Can it be used with a thin 9 speed chain please?
