Hey John! Yes, I have to remind myself to take it easy... So nice being able to choose where cars will pass (if at all) here with the narrow twisting roads. Every time I get on this thing I can't believe how good it is. The regen braking is fantastic, I basically hardly use the regular brakes at all. 1.6 KW of braking above about 30 km/hNice project Dave! More power is hard to resist, hope you stay safe on that beast. Wish I had made it to ElectraFest.
Not familiar with boosted trikes, I'll have to check it out...That's a pretty cool project. Could make an interesting Boosted Trikes article.
It pedals just fine, the cogging resistance of the motors is not really noticeable. It still out accelerates a road bike if we both just coast down a hill. With all this power I still pedal most of the time as I want to get some exercise.Looks sharp. I like the look of those motors on the front. How is it to peddle with no power ?
Holy crap! You did it!
More images please!
OK, I will get some more pics...
I admit it has crossed my mind to add another motor, it would be an acceleration monster... But it is really enough now, I'm not aiming to drag race.Left and right handle bar throttle. Plus a muxus 3,000 on the rear with a dual foot throttle. You knew it was coming.
