I am trying to figure out what motor to get for my hill climber project and I thought I could use some advice.
Here are the requirements:
- Rear hub
- Geared
- Dropout width 135mm
- Disk brake
- Estimated max load including bike+rider 300lbs
- Able to climb steep hills at slow speeds (5 mph) without pedaling for at least 5 min
- Wheel size 20"
- Max speed desired on flats without pedaling 10mph
- Freewheel or cassette - only one cog will be installed
- Throttle only
Nice to have:
- Under 5-6 lbs
- Low diameter
- Quiet
- Rainproof (I'm in the PNW)
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
