>>2028190Depends how much work the motor is doing. I'm typically contributing half of the power with my legs, so human-spaced gearing works best
>>2028192> it uses the resource of chains and cassete that are not protected from abrasives and require constant maintaincethe chain will require maintenance regardless of powertrain location. A rear hub motor will incur less wear, but struggle to climb hills due to the lack of mechanical advantage provided by the drivetrain. A belt drive & internal gearbox will avoid the need for constant maintenance, but cost significantly more.
