Hi, new member here.

I am interested in building a trike with 2 motors in the front wheels, and would like some advice on the build. Specifically, what would be the ideal battery voltage that would feed both motors, given that the bike will be fairly heavy (as it would be more of a cargo trike with 29" wheels?)

I have been looking at the Grin Tech All-axle Motor as it supports dual-sided applications. Since I'd be using larger wheels, a the slower winding speed seems more ideal. They look a bit pricey, but not horribly so.

I would need 2 controllers, right? Which is the better choice, the torque or PAS sensor? The phaserunner looks pretty good.

Finally, are there any wiring diagrams that have been used for dual motor applications here on the forums?
