Interesting !
I'm a road cyclist and what i want is basically a faster bike to make the longuer rides a bit more easy and fast... and to get there with a bit less of pain..sometimes
. (my plan is to have basically the same bike that you have but with gears at the back...still not sure if i'm going for front or back...probably will depend on steath mode...)
The Q100 24v201rpm on a 36v lifepo4 seems a good option for what i'm looking for. On a 700c at what minimum speed do you think a I should pedal before putting the throttle ON ?(without getting the weird noise...i think your posts refer at a 26 inch one...so would it be a lot different on a 700x23?). That way it would also make a good commuter kinda bike if it could "start" before a 12mph, but no big deal anyway...and loosing a few kmh is just a good reason to push more...
Also, i would be curious to know how you fitted the throttle on your road bike, I plan to use the same type of handle bars and was wondering if a half throttle would manage to get pass that "90 degre angle" all the way to the stem.... if you have picture or infos on that, it would be great !
ps: new at ebike stuff...this forum is amazing ! learning every day !
great post !
