Could you please provide a link? I cant find them on the EVdeals website.
Top work BTW!

you'll need the stoker set. They come with a Shimano FW, I've changed mine over to use a white Eno.

The projected price for the complete system is $1700. I am working to reduce that. This includes a complete system, ready to bolt on and go. The only other requirement is a bottom bracket removal tool, and electonics.
I also plan to make the mounting system, modified crank set, and modified bottom bracket available for custom motor/reduction systems. The projected price $600.
I have complete parts for 5 systems. More are on order.
Comments appreciated.
Ron Z said:The primary reason for using half-link chain is to facilitate primary chain tension adjustment, and to eliminate the need for a chain tensioner. Only a 1/4 inch adjustment is necessary. I use KHE chain, which has a cut-away on each link. I believe this eliminates the slapping of the chain sides on the small 13 tooth freewheel. I may be wrong..
The procedure is: Loosen the four silver cap screws. Adjust the four black cap screws for chain tension and plate alignment. Tighten the four silver cap screws. Done.
Practicality aside...Why go to all the trouble of coupling at the cranks for 2 speeds?extremegreenmachine said:Do you think its possible to run a schlumpf planetary speed drive in place of the regular crank set and turn this baby into a two speed?
