I suggest you sell the motus and buy a ready made trike and a front wheel hub kit. Nice and simple.

Presumably it a sensored motor? If that's the case then you will have also have change the hall sensor connections in accordance.

Is there no motorsport at all in Scotland then?

I'm not familiar with these bikes, but looking at the picture on the website it appears to be a single sided axle design, and thats going to be a problem. Most hub motors have a 12/10mm axle. This means that it's a 12mm axle, flattened to 10 to fit standard dropouts. My guess is that single...

For me, the top box is the most mopedy thing.

What has any of this nonsense got to do with the OP's question? First you are abusive, then you post an irrelevant video. It may be a good idea to stay out of threads to which you can make no positive input.

I'm tempted.

Talking of beer cans. All the bikes I own either came fitted, or have been accessorised with a beer can holder. They are always slightly too big. Here's the problem:

Having ridden similarly laden bikes (two wheels) I can tell you that a good motor will make a huge difference. Not all 250w motors are born equal. The Bafang BPM/CST 250w motors are far more powerful than the SWX type.

I forgot to mention the impressive amount of torque. This is the first experience I have of a direct drive hub motor. It will just about pull away from a standstill with me on board. (that's my significantly skinnier brother in picture). My watt meter indicates a peak current of 35 amps...

I would be surprised if that battery would give enough current. I would assume it was designed to provide about 15a max, where as the 500w will need 25-30a.

Brother and I had a couple of hours to spare today. Earlier in the week we had removed the pedicab body. We needed to fix the cable actuated hydraulic disc brakes (I kid you not), get the electrics working, and fix a flat. After doing the latter two jobs, and a lunchtime pint, we ignored the...

I had one like that, I just cut the extra bit off with a hacksaw. Show us a picture....

To test the wires out of the motor: Most have 5 wires for the hall sensors. Put 5v on red, 0v on black, and a meter between one of the remaining three wires and 0v. Spin the wheel. You should get a pulse. Repeat for remaining two wires.

Only joking dude! If I didn't hate them I would have put one of these at the end :-)

D8veh, you need to think before you make these flippant, hurtful remarks. He's far to old to be adopted.

I have used them 5 or 6 times over the last 3 years, and never had a problem. I've ordered batteries, complete wheels and all sort of other stuff. Never a problem.

Normally its max speed.

I've gone Windows 10 on about 4 machines now. Roughly speaking the changes are cosmetic from Windows 7. On one machine the wireless didn't work after the upgrade. The rollback worked fine though, so it wasn't a total disaster. I won't touch it yet for my commercial machines. Far too risky, as...
