I live in a 55+ community and one of the few GOLF CART zones.
All the streets are paved and have built a T Bucket "golf cart" for the wife to drive around town.
Previsoly had 24v 500 cyclone geared motor with a jack shaft to increase toqure etc.
The speed was maybe 10mph at best and battery drain was bad.
Started rebuilding this bucket of bolts with an 48v 1800w motor (same as Ed the street runner)
have a 13.5 to 1 differential and using the 8 t motor sprocket and 58t drive sprocket I end up with 26 to 1 final gear ratio.
Using 29inch fat tires and desired max speed of 15mph.
need expert advice if this will work?
Am looking at weight with two people around 450 - 500lbs total
