Nice summary. I would say you're a little optimistic on total weight for an e-bike, I use a hub motor with a light 15ah 48v battery, and I'm easily 30 lbs over a standard, maybe just a quibble. The regen % however is a bit less realistic. I ride my e-bike up/down hills, and don't get more than 5

The only moment I need to remove the wheel (or at least free one side of the hub) is when the tire has gone bad and needs to be changed. Fixing a flat is a matter of finding and patching the hole (and what caused the hole, or you mig

I'm not a huge fan of PIHs (at least those that use a gasoline engine), but we already have significant monetary incentives for them - a mixed message by not offering them the charging doesn't make sense to me. Further, the reason for all those incentives is to eliminate those emissions. The ab
