Looks pretty good. What is that green belt thingy running from the cranks to the motor?

oh wait, that's the drive chain nvm. That's a pretty cool set up how the motor turns the pedals instead of the rear wheel.

That's a Staton Inc triple chainring shift kit. It drives a custom built 7 speed freewheel.

The reduction range is 66.79:1 to 16.25:1. It gets shifted like this

1(1-3) Uphill and load pulling

2(3-5) Around town general use

3(5-7) Open road use.

Chainrings are 28,36,44

Freewheel is (34,28,24,21,18,15,13)

18.75:1 gearbox 15:44 drive ratio.
