Hey Guys,

I'm back at it again with another build, but going with something a little different this time. I have bought a Gravity M10 scooter which I will convert: https://www.gravity-scooters.com/en/downhill/26-m10-trail-8436576390610.html.

I plan to lace a hub motor into the rear wheel (20"), with an 18s 20Ah pack, and am looking to get around 3kW ideally with a top speed of around 30mph.

I am looking for advice on motor and controller selection, as there are a few constraints

Motor: The main constraint is the 100mm rear dropouts on the scooter which makes sourcing a high power motor difficult. At the moment I am looking at this one: https://eunorau-ebike.com/collectio...-brushless-non-gear-hub-motor-for-front-wheel, but I am not sure how long this will last running at a much higher voltage and power than designed. I am open to trying some modifications to increase its power capacity, but have not dipped my toe into this before. But before I buy that, does anybody know of any higher power hub motors that fit into 100mm dropouts?

The controller should be easier, so if you have any suggestions for a reliable 72V 3kW controller to go with it, then that would be great!

Thanks in advance
 
1500W is 35H with 100mm dropout spacing.

Thanks for the help. Phase wires on this one look much better!
