I'm about to install a 2nd motor on my bike. The large direct drive on the rear is perfect for speed, but it needs help on the hills. On the front I'm adding a freewheeling geared hub, to hopefully give my speed demon a mountain goat climbing alter ego. I'd rather not use 2 throttles, and I can't use one in the normal manner I've seen, since I want to use the geared hub only intermittently.
My thought is to wire the 2 controllers in parallel to the throttle. Then just add in a momentary push button switch on the throttle hall signal wire for the geared hub motor's controller. In effect the single throttle will typically control only 1 motor, unless I push the button for dual motor mode.
Are there any holes in this plan?
