Looking for advice on motor and battery selection for my DH ride. I bought the banshee because it’s built tough, has large triangle for battery and has good brakes & suspension. I am not so mechanically inclined so not really sure where to start. I am not looking for speed but need power to get my 100kg plus bike up some steep inclines. Also would be good to get 50km ride distance out of battery. So to pick your brain to give me an idea where to start... would you recommend mid drive or front hub or back hub ? (with consideration of cost and ease to implement). Any particular brands? Also what power I.e wattage & volts. Any suggestions appreciated. Note: I am based in Australia but can import most gear pretty easily.
Desired max speed on level ground. 40 kph
Desired max range at what cruising speed. 40 kph
wheel size - 26"
Brake type of motor wheel - hydraulic disc
Rider weight - 100kg
Terrain. Exp: steep hills, road and cross country
Budget - undefined but have spent 1k on used bike and getting it running smoothly
I know these questions are common but with changes in technology and me being new to this I would appreciated any suggestions on where to start...
