fourbanger said:So much awesome here I'm going to comment before even taking the time to read this thread. Been thinking about doing something along the same lines for a while now so it's nice to watch someone else struggle with it first.
Keep going! I think you're on the right track.
[EDIT]
OK I've read through this now and I feel like I'm missing something important regarding the drive train. Is the hub motor threaded on both sides for a freewheel, perchance?

ZeroEm said:Was wondering the size of your Lg Chain Ring to drive that 20" wheel?
Waiting on a frame so I can start a Long Wheel Base build for road riding. How is the sway or handling?
ZeroEm said:Was wondering about the forward Chainring?
From the pictures the weight looks well laid out. Wonder what the ratio should be on bikes. 60% rear 40% front.
My trike i'm sure I have 60+ on the front wheels for stability.

ZeroEm said:How is this working out?
Ishikawa said:Working out pretty good, thanks for asking. I rode the bike over 500km now. Only problem I had was the ground clearance. When I passed over a speed bump, the motor hit the bump a few times. So, I replaced the rear shock from 5" to 6" that increased the height by 2.5". Problem solved.

I heard BC is a different, I dont think Nanaimo has a lot of pathways which means your riding on the streets all the time right?
The one picture I saw of a house in the background brought me right back to BC then I scroll a hair up and see your in Nanaimo.
