Ok so I have a Phantom and it is great but hub motor does have a few drawbacks.
I like the mid drive + internal gear hub setup for the fact that the motor can use the gearing also.
Here's the kicker- I like a good coaster brake hub.
Now I have read that the TSzd2 has an option for this, but I am cheap and a part of me thinks the motor hanging down below the crank is only OK.
So the frame I am looking at has space between the post and rear wheel.
My question is can i use a standard brushless motor bolted up on the frame in line with the chain with a forward freewheel on the motor shaft?
Does that make sense?
I want to do PAS so I figure I would need some sorta sensor for the controller?
Any experienced opinions much appreciated.
