Hi, I live in a small village in the south of France that has a hill with very cool trails on it. (Here).
I’d like to go bicking there but because I've not being doing any sport for many years, the steep hills are too big for me.
My normal bike is normally light but for this project I want to use my DH bike which is quite heavy (18kg) but of course very good to go downhill. i weight 85kg.
My ebike should be able to climb steep trail hills but doesn’t need to go fast on flat.
I’d like to be able to ride for 40 km with 20 of them on hills from 5 to 15 %
I was thinking on buying a Mac hub motor from Cell-Man on a 24 inches wheel (to lower the bike because it is a bit big for me) but I’m not sure on the winding. I’ve seen many 8 turns examples on DH bikes on the sphere but I’m hesitating with a 10t version.
Another option was to go with a GNG mid-drive to avoid the gearing /winding problem but I don’t want to be bothered with chain problems and stealth is important for me.
For the controller I’m thinking on getting the 12 fet controller that EM3EV offers.
For the battery I’m not sure. I’d like to use a backpack with Lipos from HK. But I’m not sure witch? How many? Do I need a BMS for them? How will I charge them?
If anyone can help me choosing, i'll be happy to hear any advice / experience i can get !
