I have been running this Aotema front hub now for close to 3 years on my Meridian Trike. Speed has never been an issue for me but power and range are essential. I have installed two programmable controllers that allows me to change between a speed and range setup to a low speed high power one. My major issue has been spokes and traction. Moving over rough unpaved roads puts the front wheel @ odd angles and off the ground a lot. I have looked @ some post where people have installed a hub motor to drive the rear wheels but I can seam to figure out how to go about it. I would like to install the Aotema with a gear to drive my rear axel. Can anyone help me figure out what I am going to need to attempt this and maybe direct me to some resource for mounting it on the existing frame.
I would like to mount a gear (or two) on the axel maybe one smaller toothed and one larger tooth then the drive gear on the motor so I can more easily change from high to low gear to get us started I have a pic of the space I would like to mount it.
