>>1330716>The motor helps with the “go”, that’s what it’s for. I think you will find it helps less with the “stop”, and that high mass absolutely matters a whole bunch there.I don't think extra 10 kilos matter much.
>Be sure and remind your stupid self of that point as you are in the process of crashing. It all happens faster than you think. Well, if you ride in shorts and sandali - you might get a burn. Otherwise, it is pretty safe. They aren't that hot, only 100-ish deg C.
>More worried about bearingsI don't know about bicycle bearings, but e-scooter bearings (industrial sealed deep groove ball axial) are all same shit for scooters, no matter SKF or Chinese noname. Speed is not even close to critical.
But 608 bearings used in other scooters, are fucking garbage, only SKF and other brand name ones last.
So, I guess you can change all hubs to something like pic related.
> forksIs that is steel, it would be fine. Looks thick.
What is worrying, rear mounting ears. Motor has some torque in it, so I would install stiffener or sort.
> spokes, tires, etc. Spokes looks thick to me. Idk.
>Then you strap a heavy engine kit on and do 20 miles a day every day on bumpy roads at high speed. Can this not end in tears?Depends. I don't think that that motor is super heavy.
>That is wrong.How it affects handling?
On kick scooters it has some effect, it might save you from flying on a bump. But this bicycle has large wheels. I don't think it matters much on those speeds.
>We might have to disagree on this one, but I have a more ‘german’ perspective. This is why better install your own memes, like proper german lights with cut off, etc, since chinks install absolute garbage usually.
>It’s a lucky thing the insurance industry doesn’t need to agree with you, but what do they know?Hm... Really?
Btw, can those two-stroke engines in braking, or they have freewheeling device?
