Hi guys,
I'm looking to buy a stealthy commuter bike and I'm looking at the Cute motors over at BMSBattery, but I am confused what is the difference between them. It doesn't help that some have drawings attached, some have power curves, but not all have both; bottom line is I find it hard to compare. BTW I'm targeting 36V/201RPM winds with a custom 50V+ 14s1p LG HG2 DC-limited at 10A and with 150W-ish contribution by the legs.
Let me know how wrong I am:
*Q100 is the baseline with a 135mm droput. Single stage reduction. With 36V/201RPM wind @50V it should do road legal 16mph
*Q100H - a 2-stage reduction Q100, which makes for 30% more reduction/torque. Same identical size as Q100. Can give a decent boost on a 50V battery over the Q100
*Q100C - this one is harder for me to understand. Is it just a Q100H with a smaller active length (lam stack) that fits in 120mm droputs? Power/torque is similar to Q100, but having 2-stage reduction compensates for the smaller size
Then there's the Q128 series, same variants: vanilla/H/C. I don't think I need a Q128, but basicaly the 3 options are similar to the 3 for the Q100 just bigger and more powerful?
Thanks in advance. I spent my last 3 evenings geeking out on the lams discussion and a bunch of other threads. Great forum 8)
