Hi
I have an old Powabyke with rear hub motor drive. When refitting the rear wheel assembly there are two positions for the hub, these are governed by the axle flats which locate in the frame and torque bar.
The hub itself is hugely unbalanced because of the offset motor.
With the hub in one position the offset weight is hanging one way and visa versa the other way.
Does it make any difference which way I assemble it?

Thanks Geoff

It might go backwards?
