I think if the HD1000 was reduced by 30% more would be about the right amount for more effective pedalling input and still give decent top speeds. The point I am trying to make Hillhater is why have a motor with such little reduction so that when you can actually catch up to it with human effort your effort does no real good at all because the motor is being lugged so bad for you to accomplish the pedal input. We would be better off forgetting the pedal input totally and just spin up the motor in its efficient zone if going for range and efficiency alone. I pedal and lug the motor from time to time because it feels good and I want the exercise but I am aware of what it happening and I forgo range and efficiency for some exercise .
So long story short, I feel anyways ----- The motor should be in its efficient zone first and foremost WHILE STILL BEING ABLE TO ADD PEDAL INPUT then after you have accomplished this you then get your bike gears happening to give you the range you need or will settle for.Also I should say I am no engineer only a frustrated consumer.
