I am sorry but I thought Chalo was talking about latecurtis being serious about transportation, without reading to whom he quoted.
Well I am not commenting about that.
Yea. I do not know what they even are. SUNDER has some serious builds I know that much but am not knowledgeable about wheels except those that have spokes. I have seen different wheels with no spokes but never ran them I don't think.
All I know is it was good to hear from SUNDER and hope he keeps posting. I am picking up my soldering iron today and the 18650 cells I ordered are at Wall Greens for pick up. I will be soldering cells together. I will be waiting at least another week though for the connecters and the balance plugs but should have some custom built packs together by the middle of January.
The hub motor SUNDER sent me will be like brand new when I hook it up in January to 12S - 10P as that is the voltage that that hub motor runs best at. I wont have pedal options running a front hub motor on the back but the hub motor will take a disk brake back there and my V brake will work up front. The bike shop will hook it up to the cable and calibrate it. I already asked them so my dual motor build will have both brakes working and will be 2 kilowatts total with 30 mph gearing.
If I run 56V rear and 48V front then 35 mph will happen but only if the controllers are capable. I won't bother if I have to replace both controllers as 30 mph is good and am still considering a 3 kilowatt motor for the back of my Haro V3 and 43 mph gearing.
I talked to the guy at the electric bike shop. A bike shop that specializes in e bikes and the guy said he has a controller to test the Bafang motors. I need to get out there as I want to order two more of those. I am already putting one on the front of the Currie e Zip Trailz , My first Cargo bike. It will also be a dual motor as it has the 750W gear reduction chain drive in the back.
I am giving away my second Bafang as a gift so want two more. I plan to have one laced into a new rim. A 700c dual wall for the front of Easy street (my Giant Cypress Hybrid) and the second for the front of the Haro V3. I would love to convert it to a rear motor for Easy street however that would be very difficult to do. I will need to look for a good deal on a rear geared 500W hub motor for the rear of Easy Street as I like running dual motors on most of my bikes. I might run a MAC or a BMC motor on the back and I still want a 1,500W direct drive for my 27.5" silver Dimond back but the 1,500W 48V motor must be able to handle 66V for 40+ mph.
That won't require a front motor with that set up.

Well. That takes care of Easy Street. With that on the rear and a Bafang on the front it should be about the same as my Giant Roam with the two geared 500W e bikeling motors. I still have not even test drove yet.
Thanks.
