Altair
1 kW
I wanted to have a 2:1 reduction ratio before the crank, just to be sure I had enough torque.
Besides, if I run the chain directly from motor to the rear wheel, when I'm on the lowest gear the chain will rub the tire.
I bought the motor 3 months ago but I think I didn't get the latest version. At least, I have the blue composite gears but I learned from EM3EV that the new version has 2 smaller bearings supporting the rotor, while the older version had one large bearing doing the job.
And my motor winding is made of 3 smaller gages of wire instead of a single larger gage. But that doesn't necessarily indicates it's newer or older.
I ordered a spare stator that I'll wind as a 9t I think. I also have a set of new hall sensors that I'm going to put in, hence my presence here to gather info on exactly where I place them.
