The 108 motor has a very high reduction of circa 9:1 compared to a more typical approx 5:1 for pretty much every other hub motor I'm aware of. This means the motor spins much faster than other hub motors for a given rpm but IMO it also results in more drag when not under power.
Are you saying the cute motors don't freewheel(internally)?

The 108 and 128 motors are the spoke radius of the motors, ie 108mm and 128mm. The smallest version of the 108 motor, front with disk is 2.05kg. Will have to check the weights of the other variants, I have pretty much all of them here. They have many rpm variants of the 108 motor.
On the bms and battery website it says the lightest motor is 1.6kg, which is the true value? Whats the highest power you can run through the lightest hub motor?
I'm torn between going dual bafang or duel Cute motors... and if its duel cute motors what rpm variants and whats the highest power i can run them at reliably?
If anybody knows places to order front and rear bafangs or cute motors laced into 24" rims I would welcome your help!
Sry if I'm hi-jacking your thread, this is relevant though... i really like the idea of dual small gear motors too!
