    LightningRods new Big Dummy cargo bike drive

    Hi Dean, Grew up in in your area. Biked everywhere, loved the C&O. The kickback I got was not sized to match my large BD. When mounted, the taco would not face flush, only point of contact was the leading edge. If the support arms were offset 3/8" more the taco would have faced flush...

    LightningRods new Big Dummy cargo bike drive

    Awesome build Deanwvu! Thanks for the details and pics. I stokemonkied my dummy before Mike's foray into longtail, so the LR will have to wait for my next build. Keen to see how the torque sensing works. Did you customize the kickback taco to fit? I returned mine and still use std kick stand...

    Justin, Would the FOC be of equal benefit to a Stokemonkey rig or overkill?

    LightningRods mid drive kit

    Very excited to see this Mike. It would be awesome to have freewheeling torque-sensing pedal assist with tractor-like performance for heavy loads on steep terrain (e.g. fully loaded mountain/off road touring.)

    +1 for strong interest in a torque sensing version for my Big Dummy. Thanks for all your hard work and continuing refinements Mike!

    Stokemonkey returns with freewheeling, from ebikes.ca

    I haven't found anything indicating if/when the freewheeling SM will fit/work well on a Big Dummy. Any updates appreciated.

    Urban Commuter Big Dummy M-Drive Project.

    So glad to find this thread as I'm considering the M-Drive for my Big Dummy. Very keen for any further developments/discoveries/issues/problems before I take the $ leap. Thanks!
