Kindernay observations and few questions for Pushkar

[scrambler]

Noob question: who is Pushkar? I'm looking to buy some supplies like Velvet Oil and a few spare parts for Kindernay 7 hubs plus maybe an extra once shifter.

Were are you located, there are a few Kindernay dealers in the US now like Cycle Monkeys on the west coast.

Kindernay's sending my a new (reconditioned?) hub and labelling so I can send the leaking hub back to them.

Upfront replacement, NICE!

A big thumbs up to Kindernay for sending me a replacement instead of me having to send my leaking hub to them and then have them repair it or send me a new one. That would have taken weeks and more likely months.
I am wondering about the kingernay's ability to handle the Ultra's power output (with the X1 controller).

I covered about 1400 miles already on my 3000W Innotrace X1 paired with Kindernay VII. It works without issues so far. Just replaced the destroyed chain at 800 miles and flipped the cog. The trick to not overstress the gear hub is to use the biggest possible chainring with smallest possible cog. The rear wheel ideally also needs to be smallest (for instance if you have a choice between 29" and 27.5" rear wheel it is less stressful for the gear hub to use 27.5" rear wheel).
