hi,
thought i would show pictures of my Demo 8 bike that i have been converting to Electric. Let me know what you think i will post more info and specs soon. Still a bit to do, but you will get the idea. Also i have a few questions, one of if possible will need help with rear end, as i will be running the motor thru the crank and then to the rear wheel what would you recommend as a hub also the demo 8 is a thru bolt axle. i will try and use the gears but i know the derailleur wont hold up but i will give it a go. I dont mind running a single gear at the back wheel but i want something strong. i know i could run a chain straight to the back but i like the look of the motor driving the crank and then another chain to the rear wheel. i did think about two chain drive like the cycle monkey bike where i would have two cogs on the last shaft of my drive unit and one chain to the back wheel and the other connected to the crank and a single cog at the back, would just need to make a chain tension but shouldn't be two hard. Hope this makes sense.
any ideas would be much appreciated.
regards Dan
