Could anyone shed some light on this motor for me.
I am just now getting back to recumbent trikes after a couple of years away.
I bought a Greenspeed Magnum that happened to have this motor on the rear with a controller that is about 4" x 6"
The first time i tried it out it was intermittent. When the throttle was twisted it would turn for about a second and the kick off.
Twist the throttle again the same thing about one second of ooomph...
The whole thing had only 20 miles on it---
I am wondering if I may need a new controller. (The battery is a sealed 36v lead acid one from ebikes? )
I had a Pedego fat bike that was stolen in LA and i still have one 48v battery that I may use after i put some new connectors on it.
I tried it in my hotel room by picking the wheel off the ground and twisting the throttle---- it would keep turning the when then.
I am hoping the motor is OK.
But i think if i were riding it would do the cut out thing again.
