@ Vince,  Thank you for sharing your work & photos.  SUPER PROFESSIONAL JOB on calculating the HP for that fan motor.


@ Team Leaders,  Great setup on that new Group site.  For security I won't mention the name of it.
                          I especially like how easy it is to view the photos.  Personally, I really like it.
                          If we all just include our O/U handle whenever we make a post, we can know who is who.  I just did.

Thank you again Team Leaders for all of your work & endurance on this project.

Nice bike!
Is that the motor in the front wheel hub?

Vince

Yes.  The first is a 'brushed' motor. 36v.  But my brushes wore out. The cause of the brushes wearing quickly was a bad solder on one of the windings. As the brush contacted that commutator that had one leg of a winding not connected, there was heavy arching  there.

The second is brush less, using a hall sensor for controller timing if I think its 54 coil sections made of 3 separate windings. The coils are mounted to the axle hub and are stationary and the outer rim of the casing has 54 magnets about 1/8 x 1/2 x 1 inch. So multiply the torque of one coil, pushing on 1 magnet and pulling on another and times that by the total, well something like that. It spins the tire with me on it and does 25 mph.

I read that gas may go to 7 to 8 $ per gal soon.   

I also have a Wavecrest Tidalforce. i dont have pics here of that one but its on the web. looks like BIG motor in each wheel but the front holds 3 nickle metal hydride D cells capable of 100 amps peak. 

Just downloaded a web pic. ;]

Hey Mags they would ticket you here for that last one .It looks too much like a dirt bike.

you would have to put tags and lights and get it inspected if it capable of going over 30mph in Nc .
I live in the country and we used to be able to ride golf carts on side of the road . now they give you tickets if it does not have Inspection sticker and all the lights ..they go less than 30 most of the time.

   Just ran into the thread, just curious if there are any more
spots open? Been looking for a way to run a tandem bike
of around 500 watts.
   Have no prob with the build price and time.
