    Custom Build... 2 Speed H.O.B.O Powered e-Cruiser

    AJ, just wanted to say that this is another ****ing dazzling build. When I wean myself from ICE, it will be entirely due to the pioneering work of you and the others helping with this build. Excellent. Van

    Have you come up with a way to prevent your feet from contacting the ground? (A real bummer at 30+ mph).

    When you build your tadpole, maybe you could leave the seating low, for a good GoG, and use actuators to lift the seat when entering and exiting?

    Great to see her rolling Kim. At what speed does the "stuttering" calm down? Having followed this thread, I'm starting to jones about converting my trike. I (usually) pedal up to about 18mph before I let the gas take over entirely (for those that don't know, I presently run a gas powered...
