Thanks rod.
The DNM USD8 is on its way from down under.
Meanwhile im getting more an more confused where i wanna go with the whole motor setup.
Im really pleased with my BBS01 at daily commuting, ive done 5000km and it just works......also in a very efficient way.
Without pedaling, at 30kmh average, i hardly reach 16wh/km.
Normally im around 5-8wh/km.
So i see 3 options.
Get a converted BBS02 for 100mm fatbikes, for 1299$ plus 19% plus shipping.......so spent round 1600-1700$ and still "only" got a 48V/25A BBS.
Get a normal BBS02 and mill down the BB of the raptor from 83 to 68mm, including praying that everything else will fit.
For this builds i would use light weight and cheap konion V3, cause the cells dosent need to deliver masses of current.
I also would stick with light bicycle rims and tires.
This build would also be earlier finished, cause i dont spent all my money on this.
I sell stuff that i dont need anymore and pump this money in the raptor, its more something to tinker on, not to get i finished a.s.a.p.
With one of these options i will get an efficient, relatively light raptor, which will have a huge range.
Its also the cheapest setup, so will be finished earlier.
Or get a cro, a max e, motowheels and make this a mean raptor......but then i would go with way more expensive and heavier 240cells of A123 ANR26650 20s12p to feed the hunger of this setup.
Lipo is not an option and the A123 will take the abuse for many cycles.
This would be a heavy, inefficient, short ranged.......but FUN build.
I really loved the new found range with my first ebike, exploring new areas, dont worry if i would get home in time or too exhausted.
An efficient raptor with a big battery (now its in my backpack) would double my range.
But i also love the acceleration and speed..........
What i really hate was accelerating and dont shifting correctly........ with a hubby this will be a closed chapter.
What i really love was shifting when you have to got through steep areas.......
Maybe i wait for a little fairy to tell me what to do.
