hub motors question

[racie35]

are there any hub motors that are over 1000 watt? I never see any and i'm kinda wondering.

This company has them that do up to 70mph and 4000 watts. all depending what you are looking for http://greyborgusa.com/products/motors/hubzilla/

those are sure hefty......higher voltages than everyones using though....nothing really stronger at 48v is it?

 

[paul]

i didnt see where it was any better at same voltages,. i am very happy with goldenmotor products. easy to install and perform well

Yeah, really well. Both of them work great and require zero maintainence.

I guess people want to go faster than 30. I dunno.

Goldenmotor makes great stuff at a great price. You will pay for the shipping -

Unlike HT motors, these are quality pieces.

Have fun!

You could use a golden motor mid-drive through your derailleur if you wanted to get a higher top speed from an economical motor. The top speed comes from higher final voltage after accelerating, not as big of a deal with Lithium that doesn't sag much, but the gear splits will help to eek out a couple more mph.
