Thanks Ron! Also consider in my configuration that Im driving a 12.5 inch tire, which is goina spin up around twice the RPM of a 26" tire, making my torque per revolution even less!
Somebody who could run the numbers for us may be able to compute the standing torque a heavy rider exhibits on a rear hub. I think I would agree Ron, that a non-powered rider puts more torque on the rear axle than my engine applies to the jackshaft at peak power or torque. Double the RPM = Half of the torque.
