So cargo bike, 200 or 250 kg in total, going uphill with an average of 8 %, steepest for about 50 meters is 20 %. Front or rear hub motor possible. Which brand/model of hub motor from 500 to 2000 Watt can you recommend, please?

Thanks. I live in a very hilly area. Lots of valleys . I thought mid drive bikes were better for that but after hearing this maybe a hub motor is better. I have chronic back and knee pain but riding a comfortable bike does not bother my back especially if I am not straining to peddle the bike.

Hi JD If the hills are too steep then a standard 250W motor may not be the best choice because of the torque of the motor itself. You should test it out definitely with 350W or 500W versions of motors Depending on the surface you ride on and your bikes and your own weight. My wife uses a 350W for her trips to work and this motor is actually too much for her so I had to adjust is via controller to work well in traffic.

There isn't only "one" Pedro's key, there are many different ones, and Googling is impossible. So which one? Also, Thun's documentation is basically non-existant on the website. In addition, the Thun Goal is made of extremely soft plastic, has "Pedro's Key" on only the non-drive side, and I just stripped the inner removal teeth on the drive side following this video. 😞

Honestly, this is very one-sided. Put your 200 kg on the hub drive motor on a steep hill and you probably won’t get up the hill. I have put 2000 miles on my mid drive without breaking the chain or wearing it out. I’m not saying it’s the only way to go, quite the opposite for some people, a hub drive is better, for others a mid drive is better. But let’s not stretch out the way this is being stretched. Just give an honest comparison as each has pros and each have cons.

The only thing that makes hub motors suck at a hill are wattage limits If you use peak wattage laws as a startup boost then the hub motor wont have issues Also if you weigh 200kg then you probably dont have any business forcing a bicycle up steep hills imo..

@@flosa1995 the 200 kg comes from the video not me. It was the example he used. I stand by my statement, the way the bikes are now built, a hub drive is not as good as a mid drive on hills. I’m not claiming a mid drive is better in every area. As a matter fact, some people are much happier with a hub drive and that is fine. But to just go by this video, you would think hub drives are the end-all be-all, and that mid drives are nothing but garbage. Far from the case friend, they both have their advantages and disadvantages. So let’s just give a non-biased rundown on what those advantages and disadvantages are. Then let the buyer decide where each advantage and disadvantage belongs on their own list of priorities.

Point well made . Let the buyer decide on what they need, both have their con's and pro's. I confess to being biased here because I like hub motors more personally. This video was kind of a reaction to the mid motor hype that's been going on and also the overpriced e-bikes using them these days. I am still bigger fan of hub motors because of better price and ease of service for the e-bike afterwards and component accessibility. For the hilly area with cargo I would think about the geared hub motor and more than 250W version and surely a torques sensor included. Mid motor is way more fun and advanced because of torque measuring feature.

Glad you like hubdrives too. I ordered a Heybike Brawn but it hasn't arrived yet. I'm sure I'd like if it goes faster than stock so I'd be curious to hear what you may know about plug and play performance, like eggrider or a higher performance controller 🤔. I'm completely new to ebikes and am trying to research the internet but haven't found much. I really don't want to spend much for a few miles per hour extra, so a program cheat or something almost free would work best for my situation. I stumbled on your video and figured I'd reach out to you and also subscribed. Thanks for reading this if you have time.

One thing some motor controllers have a single blue or pink wire that comes out the controller then goes back in. That is the restrictor wire. cut it and your system operates unrestricted can add 15 to 25 miles per hour in some cases. But not all systems offer this so you can sometimes go into the menu on your handlebar LCD display and readjust wheel size to a larger wheel to fool it into going faster than the restrictor is programmed for. Also up volting always does the job. If your bike is using an 48 volt up volt to an 52 volt. no issue with over load on systems 36 to 48 volt which generally have a 60+volt capacitor. If you have a big direct drive hub motor up volting will make it a real fast system and planetary geared hubs get much better range.

great video, really surprised I had not seen this before now. You nailed everything down pretty well when it comes to the hub motors. I prefer 1500 watt direct drive coupled with an 48 volt 20+ah 1600 watt battery. Very heavy but power and range are fantastic. I have built a few mid drives and found the issues you spoke of a real problem for folks not knowing what was what about ebike conversions. My spin on the rim is I can install an electric bike hub motor conversion kit on most bikes as easy as changing a rear tire and cost ( battery included) perhaps $700 for an Ebike that can go upwards of 35 mph have 3-5 to 9 PAS levels and hills, mountains be damned. then if you get bored or just find a better donor frame, you merely swap out the kit from one frame to another. I have kits that have been on five different frames and are still in use today. Do that with a proprietary Mid drive frame and system.

I like a front hub motor because it effectively gives you 2-wheel drive - motor at the front , pedalling at the back. I find that they climb very well, the weight of the front motor gives a better weight balance and obviously there is no strain on the chain/cassette. The downsides are if you go off-road or in the wet, when you will lose some traction, reducing your range considerably. And if the road is a bit rough, you will feel every single bump as that unsprung weight hits the obstruction.

True that! the front drop out on most bikes are not designed to handle the drive end of front wheel drive and unless you really got to have one please use two not one torque arm and replace rigid forks for a suspension fork which generally have heavier hardware.

Hello Anio You just caught me at my computer so a fast reply. This would be very difficult to do but it is possible. Two options: 1. Use one sensor and spilt the cable onto two plugs, one for each controller. Must make sure you get the cables wired correctly otherwise to wont work. 2. Put one sensor on the left side as intended. Second sensor you can put on the right side but you need to do two things. Make sure you have enough space between the chainwheel and the frame to fit the sensor or change the bottom bracket to longer one (also must think about the chain line) Then you must rewire the two cables that give signals for direction because when you change the sides of PAS sensor (left to right side of BB) the signals for the direction are then in reverse meaning that the engine will start when you pedal backwards. So not an easy task but still possible just some careful rewiring has to be done :)
