I am curious about the the product... it's the method of release that I'm knocking.Before you knock them why don't you just wait until the details are released?![]()

I was only bringing up the Cyc as I have experience with it and its motor core is capable of a godawfully high rpm limit (12k is really not where you want to run it... but it can run at 6k routinely which is still a hell of a lot). High rpm limits coupled to great big cogs in the back equal a motor that can propel you at slow speeds and fast ones, which is the secret sauce for single speed after mixing in a generous supply of amps.The CYC isn't a great example though, as it still moves the bike through the cassette. You can chug slowly up a steep mountain all day with that and still be spinning the motor in its optimum RPM range--not lugging it in the lower 20% of its operating range where electric motors tend to suck down battery like you have a hole in your gas tank and get very hot..
I love the idea of an integrated gearbox, Unfortunately, so far as far as I know the Valeo / Effigear system will be limited to 350W sustained. Only peak above that....That valeo sytstem looks very promising (especially as they seem to be thinking of more than just the eruo market). Too bad at CES 2022 they only seemed to have provided test rides to 2 guys that never had ridden an ebike before, at least that's all the shows up on youtube.
Perhaps it's a Biktrix and Watt Wagons collaboration, that would explain the delay.
Seriously though, Deafcat hinted last night it was taking longer than expected to pull the media / website materials together.
Go live at 22:22!Maybe we can hit 22:00 hrs![]()
We aren’t talking SpaceX here … er .. ah … oh .. yeah I seem to recall a few postponements there.The great REVEAL DAY is drawing to a close and no reveal.![]()
Nope, up to 750W sustained, 1000W peak, 130nm torque.I love the idea of an integrated gearbox, Unfortunately, so far as far as I know the Valeo / Effigear system will be limited to 350W sustained. Only peak above that....
Seems like a much more streamline and desirable solution addressing the same set of problems.Nope, up to 750W sustained, 1000W peak, 130nm torque.
Edit: see video (specs mentioned 45 seconds or so into the video for US market):
So now we're "cackling hags".........Bubba butthead....We aren’t talking SpaceX here … er .. ah … oh .. yeah I seem to recall a few postponements there.
you guys are brutal. A bunch of cackling hags waiting for the airship to fail. … er nevermind.

As is at the moment... But what if you up'd the wattage in the Valeo design.I'd say completely different animals though. The Valeo would be consumer mainstream and the other enthusiast off-road. Not sure one would be optimal for the other and vice versa.
If that happens then it will be a nice mid range solution.Nope, up to 750W sustained, 1000W peak, 130nm torque.
