Hello to you all!
I am so glad that forum like this exists, it confirmed my idea that low-cost e-drive for bicycle can be made. I searched the forum, used wiki, but before spending money on parts, I would like to get confirmation from someone who already made one or more friction drives that this combination I have in mind will work.
What I expect from my project is:
-Speed anywhere between 30-40 km/h
-Range up to 15 km flat ground, (only pedaling when starting, drive would be engaged at the speed of about 10-15 km/h).
-Have in mind that both me and bicycle weight about 100 kg, and tire dimension is: 700x38C).
What I have in mind that will do the work:
-Motor: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__36407__Turnigy_Aerodrive_SK3_6354_260kv_Brushless_Outrunner_Motor_EU_Warehouse_.html
-ESC: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__10331__Turnigy_Brushless_ESC_85A_w_5A_SBEC.html
-Battery: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__8590__ZIPPY_Flightmax_5000mAh_6S1P_30C.html
-Speed control: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__18309__Hobbyking_LED_Servo_Tester.html
Thanks in advance to anyone who is willing to help. I will keep the topic alive and post progress of the project along with pictures.
Looking forward to it!
