Just an hypothetical idea could you reverse the stack of cogs on the rear cassette ?.
What I mean is rather than small to large cogs as standard, could you go from large to small cogs. Obviously you would need to have the smallest cog on the outside with the locking ring to lock all the cogs in place. I wonder if the derailleur would still work ok? - I don't see why not.
As most ebikes need lower gears at high torque levels at low road speeds the chain line would be better than at higher MPH with lower torque - just an idea.
