Default Re: new electric hybrid

yeah I think about the hub right up to the 400 bucks then I stop. This engine is the biggest one i have 350 watts. Cost me like 27 bucks plus about ten bucks shipping. Switch is a house light switch. works on the pulse jet theory. I turn it on and get up some speed then switch it off. If I need more speed i leave it on and pedal. Get a little exercise with this one.

You are right about the skinny tires. Hit a crack and its my back that brakes. I'm going to start tomorrow on building my transylvania chopper electric addition. I got some poor boy ideas for it.
