    Dual motor; full suspension; semi-recumbent MeetOneTrike with 180nm torque @ 25 mph

    my point is quality mid drive motors like my Yamaha/Giant motor do not destroy drive-trains if you are shifting properly and do not ignore maintenance. you are the rare person that does not abuse your hub drive Ebike.

    Yamaha battery seems difficult to source and is a tad expensive....

    hah! exactly! I just paid $950.00 for a spare giant energypack sourced from Giant for my Dirt-E+0 pro mtb, no problem for me since anything else is a significant risk.This is not an inexpensive way to bike.

    Bike tires? Puncture proof? Skid proof?

    Mountain bikes are great for commuting, been at it for 25 years now with hardtail Ebikes and conventional 29er models with tubeless setup, LOTS of riders use mtbs to commute. rarely had a flat commuting. I use lightweight tires that roll faster than some road tires, quick handling and...

    I have been using premium quality tubeless tires and rims since the early days of tubeless, I rarely suffer flats and never pinch flats. Looking for flat proof? good luck with that. currently running 5 mountain bikes with Continental mountain king tubeless tires set up with continental Revo...

    New old guy...

    pretty much the same issues I had with E- BikeKit I installed on a mtb commuter years ago, they have a very good reputation for this type of item. I knew what i was getting into, I was an electrician in the Navy and those skills are necessary with any made in China ebike components. The loose...
