    Bike Racer - Motorpacing eBike Build - Feedback? (Q100@48v)

    Well, I am still arranging my ideas and thought I would bump the post. I am leaning towards a over-volted q100 that will do 400ish rpm at 48v, and likely run it at 500w or less. My bet is that I wont be running it at wide open throttle, since I will be doing specific speed workouts, pedaling...

    Bike Racer - Motorpacing eBike Build - Feedback? (Q100@48v)

    You are certainly right to doubt my understanding of ebike cruise! :) So, will it hold amps steady, or does that change with RPM or load? I could also put a cheap motorcycle cruise clamp on the throttle and use the ebike brake levers to kill the throttle. I am looking at these two...

    Bike Racer - Motorpacing eBike Build - Feedback? (Q100@48v)

    I appreciate all of the feedback. I am thinking that Jonathan and Dan are both tracking on the idea nicely. I have found a Q100 front motor, that is rated at 328rpm @ 36v. If I use 48v, my estimates put that at 400rpm. (no load) With a 700c wheel, the no load mph appears to be around 32mph...

    Bike Racer - Motorpacing eBike Build - Feedback? (Q100@48v)

    The noise doesnt matter to me at all. The unit will live on my training bike during motorpacing periods of time and will be obvious to all onlookers. I really like the friction drive idea, but I am not convinced that it would give me the juice I need at 30mph ish. The hidden power kit looks...

    Bike Racer - Motorpacing eBike Build - Feedback? (Q100@48v)

    I really like the idea of friction drive. For my bike, it could be mounted on the seatpost (27.2) or by the BB like Kepler did. The issue is that nobody sells it in "silly bike racer" kit form that I can plug in and bolt on. I have seen some pieces / parts being sold, but nothing that seems...

    Bike Racer - Motorpacing eBike Build - Feedback? (Q100@48v)

    Long time lurker, first time posting. I have been kicking around an idea since last year, and I think I will put it in motion this year, and I need some advice from the community. (I know little about ebike issues, but hit me if you have questions about bike racing tactics / stuff - I would be...
