_haha_oh_wow_High-torque bike motor blows open US ebike performance
PyotrWith the power these amflow units put out, they aren’t bikes. They’re more e-moto with Pedals that act as a thumb throttle.
So this market didn’t need to be “broken open”. People will be out there with their e-motos in places where they aren’t allowed, and will end up in more access being closed off to bikers in general.
Wahots120nm would be so great for cargo ebikes, especially ones with cargo containers.
My non-cargo ebike is great at 80nm, but can only move me up a steep hill at about 9 mph @ 1,300w (52v) with a gross weight under 275lbs. Our city has steep hills, haha. Can’t imagine carrying a Costco sack of rice, various groceries, a heavy lock, and a child or two on 80nm.
SaneMartiganUs heavier riders appreciate the power too. At 100kg I’m getting lean, and I’m not lean.
It’s similar to not needing a v8 engine in your car, but dam is it nice to have the power there when you need it.
I’ve yet to see one of these motors on an ebike, but thats certainly a perfect market for this system, far more so than calling itself an eMTB
