I'm not insisting on anything, just asking for feedback exploring ideas.
As above, since it is so cheap and easy to adjust the motor-output gearing, I'm thinking to use that to ensure the Rohloff max tolerance of 130 N.m is not even approached, perhaps in combination with a CAv3 enforced throttle-control limitation.
That will then determine final wheel speed range top and bottom, which I suspect will be infinitely better than my previous expectations attempting this with DD hubs only.
I just don't see a downside other than price.
> IGH gears, the second gear of a 3-speed is the strongest one out there. Of course that would not give you much of a gear-spread.
But it might be good enough while I'm saving for the Rohloff. And, do you mean even stronger than the Rohloff? The lowest gear is where the torque will be highest though, I'd hope speed would be up to at least 5-7mph before the 1-2 shifting would be appropriate. . .

Thanks for that extra bit on #215. Can that be used for standard derailer type gearing too? Or just with setups like the Lightning Rods?
