Interesting engine choice. I bet it sounds like a roto-tiller.

I saw a guy on a Brammo yesterday.
I was surprised how 'loud' it was, all chain and sprocket noise. I think belt drive if possible is well suited for an electric bike.

What's Grainger? I hear them advertised on the radio here but I don't quite get it.

They sell lots of controls, switches, etc for manufacturers and people who like to build things.

I read the entire thread, and I was intrigued by his thoughts of using a hub motor on the front for battery regeneration. I think that's brilliant! :idea:
