quick update
new motor, in a motorbike wheel, good for 12kw continuous and over 20kw peak
running a 2.5kw controller right now, but I've got a 32kw controller on the way (programmable so I can limit it down)
also ordered a cycle annalist - a handle bar computer thigie to go between the throttle and controller, so the throttle will adjust power instead of speed
otherwise it would just do this...
p.s. that's my nephew in the photos above not me, I was taking the photos... he's only 16 and almost as tall as me :-o
