Got a good deal for this scooter on Craigslist. The motor barely turns unloaded, I'm guessing the SLA battery is likely dead.
Planning to use 10s6P Panasonic 18650PF at 36V, which can easily fit in the case. Replace the front wheel with a 10" BLDC ungeared hub motor.
It's going to be built for torque - riding up steep hils, and limit the top speed to 20mph. I read that the band brake is weak and don't last, so will be using regen on the front motor. For now, will just use the stock motor.
Any recommendations for a 10" front hub motor? Also, where to find a good quality but cheap 36V dc brushed controller for the stock motor?
