This wiki is a simple table to catalog all the possible mid-drive motors that can be fitted to muscle bikes (for e-bike conversion). The idea is to make it easy for novice builders to see the options laid out and quickly form a short-list. I did a lot of digging to get it in its current state, but it needs more work. I'd appreciate anyone who contributes more data to it.
At this point I'm a bit surprised how many mid-drives are chain drive. I really don't see any advantage to maintaining a 2nd chain which then adds noise and throws more filth around. Are people doing chain drive to avoid bottom bracket disassembly? Or is there a cooling advantage?
